    @legalfalcon I know I'll need a formal equivalency check for matching the offence in New Zealand to its counterpart in Canada. For now, I read the legislation on my own and this is what I found that closely matches the nature of charges and their description in both the acts - For most...

    Yes I have and it does give the date of conviction and the charges But there is nothing under the column of 'date of sentencing' as there has been no sentencing. And it has no mention of the arrest warrant either. But the warrant is very much there as confirmed by an official at NZ immigration.
