New Zealand Permanent Residents are residents of New Zealand, who hold a permanent resident visa, which - superficially seen - makes them equal to New Zealand citizens. A permanent resident visa must not be confused with a resident visa. This article refers to the terms “resident” and “permanent resident” only in the scope of immigration purposes and describes the current situation based on the Immigration Act 2009. There are other definitions for residents in tax or electoral affairs. == Similarities between a resident and a permanent resident visa == The holder of any resident class visa is entitled *to stay in New Zealand indefinitely *to work in New Zealand or in the exclusive economic zone of New Zealand *to study in New Zealand *to receive free or subsidised health care at publicly funded health services. *to free education at state-run primary and secondary schools, and subsidised fees for domestic students at private schools and tertiary institutions. *to vote in elections (after one years' residence). *to receive a social security benefit (after two years' residence for Jobseeker Support, Sole Parent Support and Supported Living Payment; after ten years' residence for New Zealand Superannuation; varies for other benefits). *to sponsor a partner, parents or dependent children during their visa application 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「New Zealand permanent residency」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
