Harmon Wilfred
Harmon Wilfred is believed to be one of New Zealand's longest-term overstayers, he is in New Zealand unlawfully.
He and his wife, Canadian food company heiress Carolyn Dare-Wilfred, arrived in New Zealand in 2001 to avoid what he describes in one email as alleged political retribution and safety from CIA death threats.
In 2005, while still living in New Zealand, Wilfred relinquished his US citizenship. He claimed he did so because the US Consulate General refused to return his passport.
Harmon Wilfred owned the following business (all in liquidation): La Famia No1 Ltd, La Famia No2 Ltd, La Famia No3 Ltd, La Famia No4 Ltd and owns a huge amount of money to former employees, NZ Government and many other companies in New Zealand.
