Can Australians get a New Zealand Permanent Resident Visa?
Australian citizens and permanent residents may qualify for a Permanent Resident Visa (PRV) provided they have held a Resident Visa continuously for more than 24 months, and have met the PRV criteria.
However, Resident Visas held by Australians expire upon exit from New Zealand, so travelling in and out of New Zealand can affect the requirement that the Resident Visa must be held for two years continuously.
If an Australian citizen or permanent resident is in New Zealand on a Resident visa and wishes to apply for a permanent resident visa in the future, they should make an application for a Variation of Travel Conditions (VOTC) if they wish to travel in the meantime.
For further information on immigration matters affecting Australian Citizens/residents, please read the Related Question below "Are there any special rules for Australian Citizens and Residents?"

如果你打算在新西兰养老，这样挺好。
但如果以后还想回澳洲生活和养老，就没戏了
NZ PR可以入境OZ, 而且medicare通用. 其实好像没有太大区别
错了,NZ的PR需要签证才可以入境AU,等同于其他国家申请者,没有任何优势. (2001年以前入境者除外)
NZ的公民可以自由入境，但是不享受大部分福利
不如干脆拿新西兰国籍。好处：
1，新西兰是真正的N重国籍认可。当你拿了新西兰护照之后还可以合法地“永久”使用中国护照出入新西兰国境，因为新西兰的PR永不过期；
2，持新西兰护照可以随时自由地进出澳洲国境，并可以合法地永久居住在澳洲，只是福利上有点差别而已。
所以，你可以随意自由地出入新西兰、澳大利亚和中国（使用中国护照）。
好吧，呆nz养老可以了
中国护照延期时候新西兰的使馆要你到新西兰内政部证明你没有入籍证明的。
所以入籍后长久下去中国护照也照样保不住的。除非你回国换新护照。
对呀，回国换新护照。这点白给的小空子，是个中国人就能想到吧？
