The Auckland Jewish Immigration (AJI) is
a volunteer immigration organisation working under the auspices
of the Auckland Hebrew Congregation (AHC).
The AJI is a unique exclusive Jewish immigration advisory
organisation
You want to immigrate but how do you get started? There
are two main considerations -
- Engage a registered Immigration Consultant.
- Negotiate the immigration process yourself.
It may cost you up to $10,000 if you engage an Immigration
consultant to process the work for you. With the AJI Partnership
it’s free - no hidden costs – all you pay are fees
to the government's Immigration Department.
If you would like to negotiate the process yourself,
then contact us and we will
tell you how our free partnership Immigration and Settlement
service works.
This step by step immigration advisory service will guide
you towards a successful outcome through the immigration
process.
Once we have established your qualifications/work experience
and other immigration related requirements, we will tell
you if, under normal circumstances, you should continue
with your application to immigrate.
Hundreds of families have settled in New Zealand through
the AJI partnership.
Welcome
to the Auckland Jewish Immigration website
The AJI welcomes you to our lovely South Pacific city
of Auckland.
Join the hundreds of migrant families originating from
over 56 countries who have enjoyed our support.
Auckland had it's beginnings in the 1850s and had a Jewish
involvement. One of the first arrivals was a trader from
England - young 23 year old David Nathan.
Next year the Auckland Jewish Immigration celebrates
its 20th anniversary. It is ironical that a direct descendant,
also called David Nathan, contacted me in the year 2000.
As chairman of the Auckland Hebrew Congregation (AHC)
David asked me to set up a helpful hand for any incoming
Jews. From this request the AJI was formed.
Although a small part of the population, Jews have been
involved from the beginning in Auckland history. We have
been leaders in commerce, science, health and education
organisations and government ministries. We have provided
five mayors of Auckland and three prime ministers of New
Zealand.
New Zealand is a secure, English speaking peaceful country,
that respects your Jewish faith and culture. A third of
the country's budget is invested in health services and
education to a high level.
If you are planning to immigrate to New Zealand, let
us assist you. Hopefully we'll be able to welcome you
into your new home.
Stan Rose, Founding Chairperson, Auckland Jewish Immigration
(AJI)
Founded

Parent
Category to reopen in February 2020

The first selection is scheduled for May 2020. In the
meantime, the category has temporarily closed.

Zealand Immigration website for more information.
Check
if you need a visitor visa or an NZeTA
From 1 October 2019, some visitors and tourists must
have an NZeTA (New Zealand Electronic Travel Authority)
before they leave for New Zealand.
Having an NZeTA shows you're allowed to travel to NZ.
It is to help increase security at NZ borders.

Update
on a new Jewish Auckland community centre
The new Auckland site is located in Remuera, one of Auckland's
historically important more affluent suburbs, close to most
of Auckland's transport infrastructure, and near to many
Jewish families that live in the surrounding suburbs.
The move will replace the current centre in the central
city.
It is proposed that the site be developed to become an
all inclusive Jewish complex with many advantages now
not available, particularly for the Jewish school (Kadima)
with sport grounds and swimming pool.

News for all Immigrants trying to meet the required English
language qualifications
Pearson PTE Academic (PTE) is an English language global
teaching institution that can be accessed on their website.
Once you have qualified successfully through PTE, you
can expect your English to be approved by Immigration
New Zealand for all student and migration visa applications,
and accepted by all New Zealand universities, institutes
of technology and polytechnics, and by thousands of institutions
worldwide for admission purposes.
PTE utilises state-of-the-art artificial intelligence
(AI) technology to provide the most accurate and objective
test of academic English available.
Students and migrants prefer PTE as it is the most unbiased
proof of a candidate's English skills and quickly returns
their results, with 8 out of 10 test takers receiving
their scores in 2 days.
The AJI welcomes this new organisation because we know
how difficult it can be to reach the required levels of
English to complete their immigration applications.
