Turner Hopkins - Barristers & Solicitors in Auckland

Immigration Tool Kits for Employers

The New Immigration Act imposes substantial and onerous obligations on employers to ensure employees are lawfully employed.  Reasonable enquiries must now be made and due diligence exercised.  Ignorance is no longer an excuse.  Fines for employers breaching the Immigration Act 2009 are significant.  With maximum fines of $10,000, $50,000, $100,000 depending on the offence, and even the potential for imprisonment for offences relating to exploitation of workers.  Turner Hopkins’ Immigration Services can offer comprehensive assistance in creating appropriate documentation and systems for Human Resource Teams to limit and reduce the potential of breaching the current legislation.

We also provide assistance in the recruitment of foreign nationals in the form of assessing potential employees for eligibility for residence and work visas, preparing, lodging work visa applications, making application to Immigration New Zealand for gaining accreditation status.
