    Kiwi visas

    I have a Kiwi cousin who is planning to come to the UK in approx 18 months time. If she wants to work what does she have to do to do it legally? Is it easy for her to get a visa or would she be better off getting a UK passport (she is elligable for one since my Uncle is a Brit).

    Any websites that address this issue?

    It seems like a no-brainer to me. A passport gives more flexibility and more options. However, I'm not sure the UK needs more tax-dodging Kiwis claiming to be British because a distant relative once visited Southampton.

    Is your cousin good looking? That could very well be the clincher.

      Well first off the easiest way to get in to england is to say you are a radical militant muslim. Then she will not only be given free access but also a big arse house and money to support her 20 kids!

        Mustang - passport is the best way. That way, no age limit, no time limit etc. Otherwise you can work here as a non-British passport holder Kiwi, but you have to be under 30 and you can't stay more than 2 years.
        Good luck!
        Chico, what time is it?
