Hi

Looking to emigrate to NZ. Just about to submit my expression of interest
form but wondered if I should look at using an agent. I am a little nervous
of getting swindled as I know nothing about the process. Would you recommend
using an agent, and if so any decent ones?

Thanks

Mark

Hi Mark

Many people do this process without and agent and would debate if agents
are needed.

It depends on how informed you are on your choices and what is available
to you and how straightforward your application is.

The very thought of doing this all myself makes me want to hide
under my duvet.

I don't think it would hurt you to get some initial free advice from an
agent and see what your options are.

If you feel that you can manage the paperwork (I bloody hate it) and get
everything in order with no problems, then I would do it alone.

If there could be any doubts or complications with your application,
then I would use an agent.

Especially if like my husband and I, this is your last chance.

Good luck anyway.
