To apply to move to New Zealand under the Skilled Migrant Category a person from overseas needs to complete an Expression of Interest form PDF. When they complete this form they’ll have the opportunity to determine the number of points they qualify for against a range of factors.
We’ve assigned points to these factors so that we can rank Expressions of Interest and invite people who have the most to offer New Zealand to apply for residence.
Under the Skilled Migrant Category points system we provide points for people who hold qualifications we recognise. See recognised qualfication and bonus points for qualfications for more information.
