| Visa Centre & Migration Bureau Staff Secure New Zealand IAA Licensing |

Visa Applicants must use an IAA Licensed Immigration Adviser from 4 May 2009. The New Zealand immigration industry has welcomed the introduction of the Immigration Advisers Licensing Act 2007 passed by the New Zealand Government which requires anyone providing New Zealand immigration advice to be licensed by May 4, 2009. This ensures that all immigration advisors meet competency standards and adhere to a code of conduct. The new licensing system serves to protect both visa applicants and existing professional New Zealand immigration consultants from un-regulated operators. Furthermore, it establishes a strong platform for Immigration New Zealand (INZ - New Zealand Government immigration authority) to work in a clear and positive way with licensed immigration advisers. All residence visa applicants from May 4 2009 must use an IAA Immigration Adviser or New Zealand lawyer when seeking professional help with their residence visa applications. The Migration Bureau and Visa Centre are delighted to announce that staff member, Mr Anka Sahin (Licence number 200800332) has recently been granted a licence to practice by the New Zealand Immigration Advisers Authority (IAA). In addition, Anka is the first person in the immigration industry to be both an IAA Licensed Immigration Adviser (New Zealand) and also a MARA Registered Migration Agent (Australia). This means that both the Migration Bureau and Visa Centre can offer the highest level of official recognition possible to their respective clients. Following confirmation from the IAA that Anka Sahin has been granted a licence to practice, Grant King, Director of the Migration Bureau and Visa Centre said, "To our knowledge, this makes the Migration Bureau and Visa Centre the only companies in the world at this time with a team of agents who are registered with all four official immigration registration bodies: MARA (Australia), IAA (New Zealand), CSIC (Canada) and OISC (UK). This is the highest level of official recognition possible. It is a significant achievement and re-confirms the company's position as a market leader."
