    A 50-year-old man has been jailed for three years, and his partner, a 44-year-old woman, has been sentenced to 11 months home detention for immigration and identity fraud

    A 50-year-old man has been jailed for three years, and his partner, a 44-year-old woman, has been sentenced to 11 months home detention for immigration and identity fraud


    The couple appeared in the Auckland District Court yesterday after pleading guilty to 16 charges.

    They arrived here in 2011 using the identities of Hungarian nationals who were known to them.

    Over the next five years they submitted a series of fraudulent visa applications, using forged documents and false declarations.

    MBIE's Jason Perry says this was sustained and calculated deception over many years.
