Was told im refused a svc and a behavioral concern but that i maybe able to still apply for a visa ? Im curious to know what visa i can apply for having a criminal history where ive done over 3years inprison in newzealand i just want to work in the mines in austraila Reply JJ Smith June 4, 2024 - 2:49 pm Hi Quade, Thanks for your comment. I’m sorry to say, this is their standard reply. In general, anyone who has severed over 1 year imprisonment is a behavioral concern and generally not granted an Australian visa. There are always exceptions to the rule, depending on individual circumstances, how long ago the conviction was and history since the conviction. Hence, being able to apply for an Australian visa. Please note, I am not an immigration specialist and can only recommend from information I have obtained online. You can ask the same question to IMMagine, for a small fee (AUD$15.00). You can post your question online, and one of the IMMagine team will contact you with your answer within 24 hours (usually same-day response): https://immigration.co.nz/ask-us-question/. At least then you will have been advised by a professional. Sorry I couldn’t be of more help.
