Can I immigrate to New Zealand with a criminal record?

If you have a criminal record, it will definitely be detrimental to your application, and it will also slow down the time for obtaining a visa. But it is not necessarily hopeless. First of all, it depends on the nature of the crime, how many years ago it was committed, the age at the time of the crime, how many criminal records there are, and so on. If you have only committed a minor crime once in your life, it has been more than five years since you committed the crime, and you were still young when you committed the crime. Just need more documents, so it will take several months to approve.
