Fraudsters and criminals are among those with permanent residence status who are being deported or facing deportation.
In the 2010-11 period, 57 of those with residence permits had their status revoked or had been issued with deportation orders because of criminal offences or failing to meet requirements imposed on their permits.
Last week, an Indian woman, Harleen Singh, 29, who came here on a false passport in 2002, which she subsequently used to obtain residence, citizenship and a New Zealand pass-port, became the latest to face deportation.
