    I posted this in MacDougall's thread on the NHS.

    Check out this site - it's a list of critical occupations. Other links give you info on work permit application.

    BTW - as an expatriate Kiwi I am curious - what did your fiancee not like about NZ?

    In a democracy it's your vote that counts; in feudalism, it's your Count that votes.

    Brian,

    You know, I don't really know. She gave me a hand full of petty reasons but never said anything definite. I suspect it was her first time really away from here mom and the rest of her family, and the idea of staying there permanently scared her. I think her mom may have pressured her into not wanting to stay as well. However, since then, she has openly admitted to having really liked Christchurch, and wouldn't mind living there.

    I love New Zealand myself. An absolutely beautiful place. I have family there too. On the North Island, in the Whangarei area. She also liked Waipawa a great deal.
