Section 61

What is Section 61?

A person who became unlawful in New Zealand, which means he or she has NO valid visa, can apply to Immigration New Zealand under Section 61. However, once you are served with a deportation order, you can NOT apply for this

Some of successful cases

CASE 1) A partner of New Zealand citizen's Partnership based Work Visa application was declined.  Subsequently, she became unlawful.  We worked together to apply for Section 61 which was successful. 
Immigration Trust, section 61

CASE 2) A gentleman came to New Zealand with a limited visa.  He became suddenly ill and overstayed after his visa expired.  Six years later, he met a New Zealand partner and lived together.  After consulting with several immigration advisers and lawyers, the couple decided to engage with Immigration Trust.  We worked together for weeks to prepare all the documents and applied for section 61.  The application was successful. 

CASE 3) A wife of a New Zealand Permanent Resident applied for a Partnership-Based Residence Visa then her work visa was expired.  As soon as her visa was expired, she contacted several lawyers and immigration advisers.  She tried our free consultation first with Simon.  After a short discussion with him, she engaged and prepared together to apply for Section 61.  The application was successful. 

CASE 4) One of my clients has become unlawful and tried to solve his situation.  He contacted several lawyers and advisers.  He found Immigration Trust from Google and organised a paid consultation.  As soon as he engaged with us, we worked with him together and presented his case to Section 61 team.  After waiting for more than five weeks, now he has a valid visitor visa.  It will give him time to sort his life out.  Most importantly, he is not unlawful any more.

CASE 5) We helped a partner of New Zealand citizen who became unlawful.  We applied for a Section 61 and her Partnership based Work Visa granted in November 2018.  A year later, her Resident Visa was approved. Her husband emailed to thank us.
