Hi there, my husband and I are considering a move to NZ. We have no children yet
Everything about relocating to New Zealand is extremely overwhelming and I/ we have no idea where to start… I have made some enquiries about seminars to tell us more – hopefully we’ll be going to one of those some time…
A few questions that are simply a REALLY grey area that perhaps you could shed some light in the mean time:
- One of my BIGGEST concerns; my dogs are my life – how viable an option is it for us to come over with our dogs? We know this will be a MAJOR cost, but it is something we’re willing to/ want to investigate…
- My husband works in the football/ soccer department of a media company updating their website and writing columns re soccer topics. I am in accounting, have been in property accounting for the past few years. I have my National Diploma Financial Information Systems with current position being “assistant accountant†(a rose by any other name would smell as sweet)…
Oh, my point is – we’ve been on various websites to kind of see what salaries are like – if you could give us perhaps more insight into what a reasonable salary is for us to survive/ live on?
- We are aware of a maximum amount of money that you can come over with. But is there a minimum… Yes, silly question – but apart from having policies such Unit trusts and Retirement Annuity; we haven’t much else; And would depend very much on the proceeds on the sale of our cars and house.
- Then how would we know where in New Zealand we’d want to go?
- Do we start with our EOI and take things from there?
Look forward to hearing from you. And hopefully get some kind of ball rolling, even if it is only a squash ball at this point in time…
