    In Australia you don't get reduced tax, and you don't just "say you're a resident" you legally are a "resident for tax purposes" when on a WHV. All this means is that you will get taxed at a normal rate.
    When in NZ, I imagine you'll get taxed at a normal rate too. Somebody living there can confirm.
