A Chinese woman is starting a 26-month prison term for immigration fraud. She was granted residency under her false identity in 2011. "Over a period of years, Yunjuan Li successfully duped a number of people and organisations into believing she was someone else," said Peter Devoy, Immigration NZ (INZ) assistant general manager. Under her new identity, Li was approved a visitor visa in 2005 and went on to marry a New Zealander the following year. Yunjuan Li was sentenced at the Christchurch District Court after pleading guilty to six charges of supplying false or misleading information to an immigration officer.
