It entails only two stages. The first stage involves Expression of interest, while the second stage is the actual <a href=\"https:\/\/shortageoccupations.com\">Resident Visa application<\/a>. In this guide, you will learn everything that would aid you in this journey.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>First Stage: Your Expression of Interest (EOI)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>It is the most crucial step and warrants only submitting a form. By submitting a completed online application, you show interest in living in New Zealand. To get a skilled migrant visa for New Zealand, you must not overlook this stage. During the process, you will need to claim points for your qualifications, work, age, and experience.<\/p>\n<p>Take note that all Expression of interest will be graded from highest to lowest, with the help of a pool. Many refer to this process as the selection. In this process, only the best applicants will be successful. It also depends on the number of immigrants New Zealand is aiming for in each financial year.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li><strong>Second Stage: Your resident Visa Application<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>At this stage, you will have to present proof that supports your Expression of interest. You do this by submitting relevant documents in the recommended format. Immigration New Zealand will thoroughly access you to ensure you will be able to settle successfully.<\/p>\n<p>If you can convince them of your ability to settle successfully, you will get a Resident Visa. If that is not the case, they might grant you Work Visa that would help you establish yourself in skilled employment in New Zealand.<\/p>\n<p>In a worst-case scenario, they would decline your application.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_13\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13\" style=\"width: 841px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-13 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/shortagejobs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Queen_Street_Midtown_Auckland.jpg\" alt=\"skilled migrant visa for New Zealand\" width=\"841\" height=\"604\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shortagejobs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Queen_Street_Midtown_Auckland.jpg 841w, https:\/\/shortagejobs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Queen_Street_Midtown_Auckland-300x215.jpg 300w, https:\/\/shortagejobs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Queen_Street_Midtown_Auckland-768x552.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 841px) 100vw, 841px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-13\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A Street in Auckland, New Zealand<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Eligibility_For_A_Skilled_Migrant_Visa_For_New_Zealand\"><\/span><strong>Eligibility For A Skilled Migrant Visa For New Zealand<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Before you begin submitting your Expression of Interest, ensure you\u2019re eligible for the skilled migrant category.
