From: Aaron
Dear Immigration Advisers Authority,
What info is given by New Zealand Immigration/Interpol to external countries relating to New Zealand citizens travelling abroad, alerting them in advance that someone with no criminal history, is travelling to their country- therefor the holiday visa getting denied, based on incorrect data
How would one go about proving to Immigration/interpol dissasociation with a motorcycle club, then able to continue living life.
Yours faithfully,
Aaron
