New Zealand Skilled Migrant Category Update – What Students Need to Know!
The New Zealand government has updated the Skilled Migrant Category (SMC), and these changes make it easier for international students — especially those from Sri Lanka — to qualify for residency.
In this video, Ashani Yapa (Licensed Immigration Adviser – NZ LIA #202401434) and Yogesh Nair (Head of Education, NZCG #102) from Sirus Migration break down:
✅ The new SMC points system explained in simple terms
✅ How Master’s, Bachelor’s, and Postgraduate qualifications now translate into faster pathways
✅ Why Sri Lankan students have a strong advantage under the new rules
✅ The financial investment required (tuition + living costs)
✅ Why the process is risk-free until your visa is approved
Example: A 1-year Master’s in NZ + 1 year of work experience can now get you residency eligibility!
