Making an Expression of Interest (EOI)
The easiest way to create an EOI for residence under the Skilled Migrant Category is to submit one electronically by logging into Immigration New Zealand’s Online Services (www.immigration.govt.nz). However, if you wish to make a paper EOI instead, you need to complete this form and submit it along with the correct fee payment.
See www.immigration.govt.nz/fees for fee and location details.
Before you begin
Familiarise yourself with the Skilled Migrant Category process and criteria:
Go to our website (www.immigration.govt.nz) and view details of the Skilled Migrant Category Resident Visa,
Complete our online points indicator, and
Download a copy of the Skilled Migrant Category Expression of Interest Guide (INZ 1101) (‘the guide’) to refer to while completing your EOI.
Throughout this form, you will see references to terms that are explained in more detail on the website or in the ‘SMC terms’ section of the
Completing this form
You must complete all the questions in the form, unless the form specifically directs you straight to another question or section further on. If a question does not apply to you, mark it ‘N/A’ or ‘not applicable’.
Fill in the |
|
boxes as you complete the form. Refer to the points schedule in the guide to see how many points |
|
you can claim. If you leave questions that qualify for the award of points blank, this will be interpreted as a ’no‘ answer. If you fail to answer any questions or to mark them clearly as ‘N/A’ or ‘not applicable’, we may send the incomplete form back to you and it will not be submitted into the EOI Pool until all the necessary information is provided.
Do not send supporting documentation with your EOI form. Include only any additional sheets required to complete questions in the form.
If you are found to have provided false information or to have omitted any relevant information in your EOI, any subsequent application may be declined and you will not have the right to appeal against any decision to decline your application.
After you submit your EOI
After you submit your EOI, we will check that you are eligible to be entered into the EOI Pool. You must meet the following prerequisites:

You may only include dependent children in your application. Refer to the requirements for ‘dependent children’ in the guide. If your partner is separated or divorced and bringing a child under 16 years of age with them to New Zealand, we will need to see proof of their right to leave their home country and your partner’s right to remove them.
