Jilesh Desai
Licensed Immigration Advisor
Kia ora! I’m Jilesh Desai, a licensed immigration adviser based in Auckland with over 13 years of experience in broadcasting and community engagement across New Zealand.
Before stepping into immigration, I built my career as a radio presenter—connecting with everyday Kiwis and sharing stories that matter. That same passion now drives me to help people navigate the New Zealand immigration process with confidence and clarity.
I create digital content that makes complex topics easy to understand, including updates on immigration, community issues, and everyday life in New Zealand. My videos have reached over 35 million views on TikTok and more than 5 million views on Instagram in just 90 days. People across New Zealand trust the information I share—and I take that responsibility seriously.
Through JD Immigration, I support people with temporary visas, residence applications, and long-term settlement planning. Whether you're visiting, studying, working, or building a life here, I’m here to guide your journey with care, transparency, and practical advice.
Simplifying immigration is my mission—because your journey to New Zealand deserves to be clear, calm, and well-supported.
