What
happens after I complete my course? Will I have to come back to
India?
ONLY IF YOU HAVE BEEN OFFERED THE LEAD ROLE IN KARAN JOHAR’S
NEXT MOVIE!
And you want to take it up because you think you can do a better
job than SRK.
Alright wake up now! If you are done with
your daydreams, let’s get down to business. You don’t
have to come back to India if you successfully complete your studies
in New Zealand. You become eligible for a guaranteed
12 months job search visa. This visa allows you to
stay in New Zealand and work full time in any job. But the important
thing is that in these 12 months you have to find a job relevant
to the course you just completed. Once you secure this you can
apply for a longer work permit which is generally issued for 2
years. At this stage you will have enough points to apply for
Permanent Residency.
The points are based on age, qualifications and subject, how long
you studied in New Zealand, work experience and industry, spouse
qualifications and any blood relatives who are citizens or permanent
residents of NZ and willing to support your application. Click
on the link below and see how the points are calculated.

Once you are a Permanent Resident of New
Zealand, you are eligible for all social benefits from the government.
5 years after becoming a Permanent Resident you can apply for
Citizenship after which a New Zealand passport can be applied
for. This allows you visa free travel to many countries including
UK, Australia, Canada and almost all European countries.
