How difficult is this scheme as a way to get a visa to work in and live in HK?
I've added up my points, and think I have enough. But is it then a lottery as to who gets accepted? Or if I qualify, is that pretty much a good guarantee that I will get a visa by this method?
Also - how long does the process take? Can I apply for it AFTER I arrive in HK on a regular visa? Or do I have to be outside HK when I apply?

Newbie question :) but what do you mean by the QMAS section? If you could send a link that would be really helpful! I have some of the same questions as aitchkay :)

I've tried passing an application for this visa and i say it's REALLY difficult. As you would say, it's like winning the lottery :) although i'm still waiting for my results as the selection exercises only happens around 4 times a year! Although I admit it's not that impossible as long as you do things right and compute for the right amount.
check the link i'm sure the downloadable guide would be of help in answering your questions. if you're having a hard time finding a sponsor company for your work permit like myself then QMAS is the only way to go in working and living in Hong kong.
by the way, has anyone here won this lottery? :)

I applied for a qmas application, waited for 6 months, nothing worked out so I opted for investment visa. You can check if you qualify for qmas application using this qmas calculator at http://www.prismvisas.com/servicesMain.php?serviceId=20 and read more about it at http://www.immd.gov.hk/ehtml/QMAS_8.htm
