Not all individuals unlawfully present in New Zealand are entitled to a Section 61 visa request. The legal framework explicitly outlines who may not avail themselves of this avenue. Those who hold a deportation order, individuals falling under Sections 15 or 16, and those who previously held limited visas but seek to extend their stay beyond the visa’s expiry are all excluded from the Section 61 process.
Furthermore, refugee applicants or individuals whose applications have been declined and who previously held a temporary visa are prohibited from utilizing this route.
