1. Language requirements for skilled immigrants in New Zealand

1, New Zealand skilled migration conditions

Language requirements:

High English proficiency is a prerequisite for applying for skilled immigrants in New Zealand. At present, New Zealand has begun to accept a variety of world-wide English test results. Take IELTS as an example, you usually need to reach an average score of 6.5 or above.

Health status:

Physical examination reports and conduct records are required, and the Immigration Bureau will collect relevant information to evaluate the applicant in this respect.

Age requirements:

Between 20 and 55 years old, including 55 years old. Applicants aged 30-39 are very suitable for this kind of immigrants. They have some work experience and can find suitable jobs in the local area more quickly. The Immigration Bureau also likes applicants in this age group, which shows that they are stable and enterprising and can make more contributions to the future development of New Zealand.

EOI score:

EOI stands for New Zealand Immigration Scoring System. Applicants need to submit a scoring form at the beginning of the application, and the candidates who reach the score will automatically enter the candidate pool and be screened every two weeks.

After the implementation of the new policy, whether you hold an offer or not, you need to meet the score of 160 to enter the candidate pool. Each score sheet is only valid for six months. If you are not selected, your application will be returned.

I suggest you check your score before submitting your application. Feel free to ask questions if you have any questions and see if you can work hard at other points ~

2. English requirements for skilled immigrants in New Zealand

–Main applicant

For the main applicant, the New Zealand Immigration Bureau currently requires the main applicant to have an IELTS score of A or G, with a total score of 6.5 (or above), and the score is valid for two years.

Or:

You have an English language course certificate recognized by the New Zealand Immigration Bureau;

He has been employed in a technical post in New Zealand for more than 12 months, and must work continuously in the same post for more than 12 months;

You can submit other types of certificates to try to "convince" the immigration officer that your English level is sufficient, but as a country where English is not the mother tongue, it is unlikely that China people will use this method.

-English requirements for affiliated applicants (partners, children) of skilled immigrants in New Zealand.

If the principal applicant is married and even has children, then the partner and children can apply together as affiliated applicants in the same application. However, Immigration New Zealand also requires affiliated applicants to have a certain level of English. Of course, the English requirements of the main applicant are not that high. Only children over 16 years old need English proof, and no children over 16 years old don't need it. For China friends, there are mainly the following ways to prove their English ability:

IELTS Class A or Class G, with a total score of 5 or more;

Have an English language course certificate recognized by the New Zealand Immigration Bureau;

Other methods of proof are too complicated for China friends, so it is better to use the above two methods.

What if your partner and children can't meet the English requirements? No problem. As the saying goes, the New Zealand Immigration Bureau cannot meet the requirements of affiliated applicants for English language, and agrees that you can use the method of "paying for English study to prove that your English level will improve after you come to New Zealand".

You can pay the tuition fee first and show it to the New Zealand Immigration Bureau with the proof of payment, which proves that "I have paid the English study fee in full!" "Immigration will naturally not struggle with English. How much is the tuition? It depends on how many points the applicant can get in the IELTS test. The more the difference, the higher the cost. It's cheaper.

2. New Zealand skilled migration application process

First of all, we should evaluate the applicant's immigration score to see if it has reached 160. Only when this condition is met can the applicant be eligible to submit EOI.

2. After receiving the application letter, formally submit the immigration application.

If the applicant's EOI is selected, the Immigration Bureau will send an invitation letter to the applicant. After receiving the invitation letter, you can formally submit the application materials for immigrating to New Zealand.

After receiving the materials submitted by the applicant, the Immigration Bureau will issue the applicant a visa number and the specific time of receiving the materials, and then send a special visa officer to investigate the authenticity of the submitted materials.
