Sally Forbes

Sally joined the Pathways team in January 2023 as an immigration adviser. She has been a Licensed Immigration Adviser since January 2013 and works on a variety of visa application types, with a passion for partnership applications.

Prior to joining the Pathways team, Sally was a tutor for nine years on the Graduate Certificate and Graduate Diploma in New Zealand Immigration advice course, the qualification required for anyone wanting to become a New Zealand licensed immigration adviser. During this time, she also had her own business as a licensed adviser. Sally has a strong background in the immigration industry, having also previously worked as an Immigration Officer for Immigration New Zealand.

Sally holds a Bachelor of Social Sciences (Sociology) and a Graduate Certificate in New Zealand Immigration Advice. After graduating with her degree, Sally spent some years travelling and lived in Melbourne, an aboriginal community near Alice Springs, the United States, England and also taught English in South Korea. These travels piqued her interest in other cultures and her career eventually progressed to immigration work.

Sally is based in Hastings and has two school age children.
