There are few things to take care of when you first arrive in NZ. Having the following checklist and getting them done early on will save you time and energy:
- Secure an IRD number.
- Open a bank account.
- Get the Section49 condition removed (check your passport if you have this).
- Open a credit card account (to establish credit history).
- Apply to WINZ if needing settlement support.
- Connect with local groups or organisations in the community.
- For basic necessities, check out stores (or online stores) for clearance or closing down sales.
- Find schools for your kids.
- Find a GP (General Practitioner).
- Get a driver's license.
