How Low Can New Zealand's Skilled Migrant Pass Marks Go?

by Iain Macleod 13. May 2009 00:31

Pass marks are falling.

We predicted earlier this year that pass marks for applicants under the Skilled Migrant Category would fall as demand continued to soften. We have it on good authority that the New Zealand Government will struggle to meet its annual migrant target (of around 47,000 people). This, coupled with the fact that it is getting more difficult for some New Zealand migrants to find the jobs they need to meet pass mark thresholds is pushing down pass marks for those that do not have jobs.

In the most recent pool draws everyone claiming points for a job or bonus points for qualifications or work experience has been selected and Governemnt has been selecting increasing numbers of those that do not. Over the past few draws we have seen pass marks for those non bonus point or job offer claimants fall from 135 to 115. How low will these pass marks go? Our prediction is at least 110 and possibly 105 or even 100 as the New Zealand Government is forced to lower these pass marks to meet their annual target. Our advice to applicants on 105 points or more (remember, this is only those that don't have jobs or are not claiming bonus points) is to get into the pool.

Но, мы со всеми из них уже знакомы и поддерживаем дружеские отношения уже много лет, поэтому, никогда не возникает проблем с тем, что бы уединиться. Они тоже ищут места, где можно спрятаться, поэтому на всем протяжении отдыха мы практически не пересекаемся, только по особой надобности, но, такие надобности возникают не часто.
