New Zealand Demand License from Immigration Advisors

As of May 4, 2010, every person who gives advice on New Zealand immigration must be licensed with New Zealand’s Immigration Advisors Authority. The New Zealand Immigration service will no longer accept application filed by unlicensed immigration advisors after that date. This new law applies to all equally, whether you are living in or outside of New Zealand. Violators will be punished severely under the new law; the government has imposed heavy penalties including seven years of imprisonment and/or $100,000 in fines.
