This is so helpful. It really simplifies the new policy changes and helps make sense of it all. So good.
Soo glad it's helpful
I have been studying New Zealand for a few months now and it looks very appealing, much more so than here in the US. Also, it is just a flat-out amazingly beautiful place. I've been watching a whole lot of road trip and train cab ride videos which seems to really show off the countryside of NZ very well. It also seems that NZ is much more Western European in it's approach to governance, policy and societally than the hyper consumerist, capitalist, gun-ridden, dog-eat-dog society that is the US. I long to live in a calmer, more egalitarian, more humanist society like New Zealand. Also, the climate looks to be very much like the kind of climate I enjoy the most. Alas, I am way too old now (61yo) and work in a very competitive field, computer-based CGI/Motion Graphics/and video post production. I work freelance since that is how most of this industry works here in the US and it suits me best since I like working remotely in my home studio/office. Perhaps I will at least be able to visit someday.
If you have enough funds to self support, you might be able to retire here. Check the categories for residency. It's worth a look. Some countries do have that option if you are financially secure. I understand what you are saying about the U.S, but at least you have 50 States to choose from. Some of them are equally as stunningly beautiful as NZ. If you don't end up moving here, you can still find your perfect retirement spot. Maybe it's Florida or maybe it's Idaho? It's out there. But...definitely take your trip out here and include Australia as well, if you can. Even if it's just a few days in Sydney. I moved out here to NZ over 20 years ago, from the UK. I had also lived in Australia and loved it over there. But I also love NZ. I certainly don't regret leaving England.
@@Justyburger Thanks. Unfortunately, I live on disability so, not financially self-sufficient.
Drop everything and go book your air fares now.
Seeing as it will be your first visit... l should warn you in advance that total strangers will 'off the bat' start talking to you. Don't be alarmed at their quirky sense of humor and inquisitive outgoing friendliness.
Well...what are you staring at... times a waiting. get on it.
See you in the coming summer 👌
I'm loving these updates! Thank you so much!
Glad they are helpful
Thanks great info good job
Glad it was helpful!
Please do the webinar PLEASE I'm in South Africa and I have a very interesting question
Very informative content.
They make it sound like New Zealanders don't want to work!! We are out there struggling to find work that anyone will give to us!! tell the truth.
My son born here in NZ 18 very hard for him to find a job
@@davidsanelivi6472 When I was 18 I was studying to be a farm hand and did work experience on weekends and studied weekdays. It's so difficult to get a job in this country, I don't know how people end up with long term jobs either when they need to learn new skills elsewhere.
I would be interested in a webinar, depending on the price point and usefulness of the information. I definitely feel overwhelmed reading through the NZ immigration website. It's well organized, but it's just A LOT of course. I keep finding that on every topic, I have "what if" questions which the authors obviously can't possibly include answers to. I have only US citizenship and I have always wanted to try living in NZ.
Well you have come to the right place! Once you are ready to get serious about the move.. join my community www.kiwiamericans.com/new-zealand-training-hub
We need to stop people coming here that do not even try to learn NZs way of life. Instead they team up with people from their original country and speak to us only when they are taking our money. NZ also has a housing shortage here and the cost of housing has soared. The average kiwi would like to see only people who are professionals be allowed in where there are shortages. Keep the rest well away thankyou
What do you expect,most of these immigrants are coming from India and China.They don't assimilate - they will come in large enough numbers here,and then will just displace tthe locals.
Yes I know who those people are are they could go back to where they come from ✈️✈️✈️✈️🙋♀️bye
Point well taken. I emigrated from the USA to NZ as a veteran science teacher in 2013. I must have acclimated well as the mere sound of loud-mouthed Americans presuming to sit in judgement on NZ ways after deciding to make NZ their home is offensive to me too. I have a whole new perspective on my home country since having had the opportunity to become immersed in and be a part of the NZ community.
I fully agree. There needs to be a strict English language test for anyone moving to NZ. We only need skilled, educated and hardworking people who want to integrate. Ideally people from countries with similar cultures to NZ, but I do also welcome highly skilled from elsewhere. It just dumbfounds me that 200K low skilled people came in under the last atrocious Govt.
That seems fair. I am from the US and have always thought I would fit in better to NZ society. It's seems very reasonable that you should only accept people who want to willingly adapt to NZ culture. 🤍
Hello I have a question. Im studying to be a salesforce administrator and I saw data administrator and system administrator was on tier one green list. Basically Salesforce administrator handles process automation, report creation, data collection and analytics. Would this be in line of data and system admins?
That is a great question. I am not positive but you could start looking i to this deeper if you are serious about moving
Hi great info ! Pls can you do a webinar 😊cheers
How do I schedule with Paul?
I am also South African, did not look for a video dealing with immigration. However, the question I have... See, I have a Master's Degree in Computing (cum laude) duel accreditation (ZA and EU), proficient regarding general support (regardless of hardware/software/networking/servers etc.) but I am far more proficient at software engineering (various languages) and have created applications relating to the Medical/Theological/Real-estate and Electrical (was the first who created the Certificate of Compliance in term of having a digital version). In short, I do have a lot to offer where I go, but I do not know whether NZ need someone with these skills nor do I know if this is sufficient in terms of academics? But it would be interesting to know,
Hi Tara. Good to see you team up with Paul. I am in the process of relocating and wanted to know if your private groups are mostly composed by Americans... I am Brazilian but have lived in the US, but am curious if there are other nationalities. I say this because a lot of your videos are aimed at Americans. Keep up the great work!
My community has alot of Americans but it is not only for them. It is there for anyone moving to New Zealand!
Paul Goddard has moved back to the UK from NZ?
Is that true?
I would also like to add, in addition to my other comment, for me it is about what I have to offer "in someone else's home" (so to speak). In terms of work ethic 80-100+ hours a week is nothing but a matter of course and life to me. About quality, ethics and standards. Not so much about wages but contribution. I can say, standards, ethics and quality is important to me, I can say create products predicated on these. However, I can also say, this can be verified. I am driven, motivated and I do not lack conviction. I know a concern is always when it comes to those who have other motives, not me, not married and have no children. I only look at the YT channel name when I watched another upload, realizing this was aimed at Americans. I do not delete comments so I thought instead to simply mention it.
The reason is to stop low skill workers because low skill workers come here and work at places like McDonald's or fish n chip shops etc, where these jobs our children would do as part time or after school jobs which would give them experience and then they could move on to other jobs. But now they are full of low skilled immigrants who stay at these jobs and then it closes the opportunities for NZ kids, who now find it hard to fit in to the NZ job market.
Are we too old? Partially in thanks to watching your videos, my interest (as an American) to take the plunge to move to New Zealand is peaked. My partner and I both have decent resumes of professional experience, but I wonder if our ages (I'm soon to turn 45, and he is going to be 50) might hinder our chances, as it seems some of the programs are targeted to younger adults. Is this a concern valid?
It is a valid concern but not a dealbreaker as there are many pathways now. It would depend o your industry and other factors
I have an MA and BS and a background in social services and have not been hired in NZ. I’m American.
New zealand student visa success rate???
We were contemplating a move to NZ in early 2019. I love the culture & people there. But the government reaction to covid made me glad we held off. As much as we'd like to be a part of such a wonderful community, the governments ability to slip into tyranny so quickly makes it a hard no, unless some checks on power are put in place.
That was under the previous government.
It was the right public health policy under the circumstances.
Faced with a pandemic with unknown consequences, no known treatment and extraordinary medical measures required to support life it was a good decision. NZ medical system would have never been able to manage and it would have been catastrophic.
Kiwis were paid to stay home. My sister was a town council employee. Her office was closed down but she was deployed to deliver supplies to elderly/ill people who had no one to be a designated shopper.
My niece, an oncology nurse was able to maintain care to her patients while being isolated from the rest of the hospital. The illness and death rate was very low. It saved lives.
@@kiwichris7566 You are entitled to your opinion. Even after we knew the low mortality rate they continued an oppressive policy. Weeks became months, became years. The fact remains that the NZ governments ability to slip into tyranny is an admitted feature, not a bug. Even with the "new government", a bait & switch, which is really the same government with different names behind the titles & immune to blame. They have not learned from the mistakes & have not done enough to address the potential of a similar over reaction from future "governments". Those who would exchange liberty for safety deserve neither. Your leaders know this, and will behave accordingly.
@@fornever the COVID lockdown restrictions should of concentrated on the individuals with comprised immune systems and the elderly, the others should of been left to keep the everything running as usual, not to mention all the unreported extra suicides and drug overdoses by those who just couldn't cope with the strain and boredom being locked up and where freedom was criminalized and seemingly used as a weapon by certain authorities in certain countries. As for the different party in government, that remains to be seen.
I hope it has. NZ is a very, very expensive place to live.
Housing shortage
Screwing people who are in fight is not good.
