Katy Armstrong: Into NZ Immigration Principal Consultant on the Daman Kumar case and overstayer amnesty

  • Summary

  • It's thought the Government is unlikely to grant a wide scale amnesty for overstayers.

    Daman Kumar, who was facing deportation to India even though he'd never visited, has now been offered residency.

    The Greens want his parents to be granted an exemption, as they have been overstayers for 24 years.

    Into NZ Immigration principal consultant Katy Armstrong says the Government won't want to grant amnesty because it could be seen as unfair to legal migrants.

    She told Mike Hosking there needs to be support for those who have done the right thing.
