Silly question??
When you get granted PR in Australia, does this mean you are automatically entitled to live and work in NZ?

if u get into oz u can then get straight back on a plane and go to nz under the trans tansmain agrrement

Is this true and can anyone expand on this, as have just got PR for OZ, and it looks like I have a job in NZ!! Doh . If this is the case it will save me going through the NZ immigration c--p. Once was quite enough.

However, NZ and Australia are separate countries, and time spent in NZ will not count towards a new Australian RRV or Australian citizenship. Once the Australian PR visa expires while the holder is in NZ, he/she ceases to be an Australian permanent visa holder unless he/she has managed to chalk up enough time in Australia to get either Australian citizenship or an Australian RRV.
