All about us
« on: January 31, 2012, 08:43:59 AM »
The journey so far...
Got married to my beautiful wife in feb 2008 and whilst on honeymoon did the whole where are we going now chat...
Decided that raising a family in SA was not going to be option so decided that NZ was the place to be. did some research into whats envolved in the way of visa's and bought a plane ticket leaving SA 01May 2008.
Arrived auckland and phoned my miellie off trying all sorts of places trying to find work.. 3 weeks later i was applying for my first work permit. :yippee:
started working in auckland for a good company.. 6 months later brought the wife out and did her permit etc etc etc :1hug:
after a year it seemed that PR was on the agenda so tackled that after getting some advice that once you have 140 points stop claiming any more as the more you clame the more you to prove which means loads more paperwork... pick the low fruits...
2 months late PR!!!! :welcome:

Was offered an awesome position in wellington so shifted again... the move had an unexpected but welcomed suprise... the wife was pregnant with our first :smitten: and with that in mind Aiden was born sep 2011 and with this the arrival of the grand parents .
This has been awesome but now they want to stay. we are applying for a grand parents visa and have not had PR long enough to sponser them so we are now looking for work for them. we only need a years work permit and then we can sponser them... any suggestions out there?
