Immigration agencies in the firing line

An inquiry into the business practices of New Zealand immigration advisors for Immigration NZ has revealed many instances of immigration advisors exploiting clients, and insufficient regulation of the industry.

According to the Immigration Advisors Authority only 171 of the estimated 1200 immigration advisers in New Zealand are licensed.

Immigration NZ says it will no longer accepted migrants applications lodged by unlicensed agents.
