So they are coming back to home. Latest predictions about Kiwis.
NEW Zealand politicians predict thousands of Kiwis living in Australia will soon start heading home to claim the dole as tough economic times hit.
The country has been fighting to end the so-called "brain drain'' and lure nationals back to its shores since recording one of its biggest migration outflows ever last year.
But now politicians fear people will return for the wrong reasons.
Opposition finance spokesman David Cunliffe said expatriate Kiwis who lost jobs in Australia because of the global economic slump would return home to collect the unemployment benefit.
Restrictions introduced in 2001 rule that only permanent residents can collect social security in Australia.
