Y4.35 People who may be refused entry permission: concealment of relevant information, including changed circumstances

See also Immigration Act 2009 s 112

  1. An immigration officer may refuse to grant entry permission to a person, if satisfied that the person:
    1. in applying for entry permission, whether personally or through an agent, submitted false or misleading information or withheld relevant information that was potentially prejudicial to the grant of the permission; or
    2. did not ensure that the Minister or an immigration officer was informed of any material change in circumstances between the time of being granted a visa and the time of applying for entry permission.
  2. For the purposes of Y4.35(a):
    1. "applying for entry permission" only relates to the provision of information or documentation related to Immigration Act processes, not the activities of other agencies at the border (e.g. Customs);
    2. "material change in circumstances" means a change that may relate to the person applying for entry permission or another person included in the application for entry permission, or may relate to any matter relevant to the Immigration Act 2009, immigration regulations or instructions.
