New Employer (VISA)

[Kim93]

Hi all,

 

I would like to know what to do with my current situation.

 

I have a new employer but my current visa is tied up with my work permit from my previous employer....the previous employer already gave me the cancellation letter to go to labor and immigration to cancel my current visa...

 

If I switch back to Tourist Visa, how can I get non-b again which will be issued to me by my new employee without going outside the country which I usually do before but due to covid-19 this will not be possible...

 

Thank you.

You new employer could apply for your work permit to get a work permit application approval letter to change your current extension of stay to the new employer. Then current work permit could be canceled after the new extension is issued so the new one can be issued.

You cannot change back to a tourist visa without leaving the country. After your current permit to say is canceled or endsy you be staying in the country under the amnesty until July 31st.

So meaning to say I do not have to cut my current NON-B visa (Previous Employer) and this will be their basis to apply for a new work permit (new employer) ? 

Thank you.

Not exactly.

If you have a valid work permit they could only apply for the work permit and then your current one would have to be canceled for it to be issued.

Are you on a 90 entry from a non-b visa or were you issued a extension of stay based upon working issued by immigration?

No, my VISA now is for 1 year which will expire this 20th.

You you had a non-b visa that was valid for one year it would be a multiple entry that requires leaving the country every 90 days.

You apparently have a one year extension of stay not a visa that was issued by immigration.
