May friend din pala ako na kakaalis lang for Au. Nakakuha sya ng 189 visa and sabi nya na may live and work rights din yun for New Zealand. May makakaconfirm ba nito? Wala kasi akong naaalala na ganun sa mga benefits ng visa 189.

Visa requirements for Australian citizens and permanent residents traveling to New Zealand
Australian citizens and permanent residents do not usually require a visa for travel to New Zealand, unless they are a person with significant character issues as described in Sections 15 and 16 of the Immigration Act 2009.
Provided they enter New Zealand on a valid passport, Australian citizens and permanent residents will normally be granted a resident visa at the airport to stay in New Zealand.

Yan lagi ko chinecheck for the updates. Mas madali din makita status/trends kc summarized na sya.
Di pa ko naiinvite, waiting padin. Pero based sa data ng table at dahil na din pro-rata na yung occupation group natin, mabagal ngayon ang movement ng ITA release lalo na sa mga below 70pts.
