I will be happy to show my valid visas to both Australia and New Zealand in 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998 and 1999. I HAVE NEVER OVERSTAYED MY WELCOME IN ANY COUNTRY. I HAVE STUDIED AND WORKED LEGALLY IN AUSTRALIA, NEW ZEALAND, USA AND NORWAY FOR MANY YEARS NOW. I do, however, have a friend who didn't have enough money to go home and overstayed his visa in Australia. He didn't committ a serious crime.He is in love with an Australian girl and living in New Zealand is the closest he can get. I am just looking for answers so that I can help him. I would appreciate it if people stopped making insinuations that I was the one deported.

Well, no one can answer that question better than NZ Immigration Services. It is one of the questions when you request a visa, whether you were deported from a country. If he lies, to that question, all of your friends visas will be absolete in New Zealand and he will face deported again.
So if he did some mistakes in the past, he should stay with the truth, or he will end up with more problems again. At the moment the Immigration Services share so many information, because of the fear of terrorists, that he will be detected almost for sure. I know some people here in Auckland who recently got a work permit, although due to some circumstances they were forced to exceed their tourist visa. But once they explained it to the NZIS, they still got the work permit.
To answer your question: Yes you can get it. Might be harder, but making false declarations will disqualify you from a life in NZ almost for sure.

The general ruling is when you are deported, you passport is stamped with appropriate info. You are then banned from entering that country for 3 years. After three years, you can apply to enter the country and a decision is made on the basis of documentation provided.
As far as entering another country is concerned, it would depend on your honesty. If your friend uses the passport that has the stamp in it, and documents his history, there is a chance he will be interviewed for the the reason why he was deported. There is a chance this may prove negative and he could be refused.
Should he hide all information, and use a new passport without mentioning his exploits, he could probably get through. But there is a chance that while doing a security check, NZ Immigration comes across his name on some database. After all, the Australian authorities will keep him on record for 3 years, and if his crime was drastic, he could have his name listed on multiple entry lists, including the NZ's.
No harm in trying. Best of luck.

Australia and New Zealand share many treaties and are very good neighbors.
Australia ans New Zealand co-operate in many things like Visas, welfare payments and child support arrangements. They also liase closely in matters of Law and Order Defence and border protection.
Australia does not deport people lightly, if your friend is a criminal , a fugitive or has no visible means of support and did not qualify as a refugee, then New Zealand will treat him exactly the same.
There are very few reasons why Australia would deport someone, he is obviously of a character or has a past that is cause for concern.
If was deported on immigration matters it was either because he could not prove who he was, he had no valid grounds for staying, he broke the conditions of his visa, he was involved in criminal activities, he could not meet the refugee criteria or he was not able to meet the rules pertaining to Australian immigration in some way.
You can be assured that if he is known to Australian Authorites he will be on NZ watch lists and vice versa.
I would seriously doubt that if he couldnt meet Aystralias criteria then he will certainly not meet new Zealands, and even if he did he would still not be allowed into Australia

Do you you recommend "below-the-table" artwork, if so you will locate it confusing to locate an company will to take the possibility of imparting you with artwork. You point out needing to be 18 for a WHV, does this recommend you're youthful? would desire to this be the case you may in effortless terms get a vacationer Visa which does no longer show you how to artwork below any situations. what's going to take place in case you get caught? you would be suggested to the government, probably by utilising artwork colleagues, acquaintances, even your organization, and could be deported and banned from getting into New Zealand for quite a few years. What an incredible thank you to start up your person existence! the different problem is that, whilst a valid vacationer, you have subject finding everywhere to stay as you will desire to be 18, an person, to stay in an inn or hostel, and to hire any variety of lodging.

If you are deported from Australia
I would imagine that you would have trouble getting a visa to go to any country.
The first thing they do before issuing a visa anywhere in the world is to check your criminal record. If you have one, nobody will want you.

Your "friend" outstayed there welcome in Aussie so why should the scum be allowed into NZ? Believe me that we have few too many bloody immigrants already so one less is a start.
