A pretty simple poll.

 

For those currently staying here on an annual retirement extension please vote whether your base visa for the extension is an O visa or an O-A visa.

 

I have only included two choices because if you don't know, you can check your passport and vote later.

 

Why the relevance?

 

Well, as things stand now there are strong indications that the new medical insurance requirement will apply to ALL retirement extensions after October 31 for those with a base visa of OA (of any issue date, new or old).

 

So people with a base visa of O at least for now will be exempt.

 

So the POINT of this poll though totally unscientific of course is to get a rough idea of the percentage of people in the extension system with O vs. O-A visas.

Topic closed for discussion. There are enough of them discussing the subject.

Edit: If it falls off the 1st 2 pages I will do a post to bump it up.
