phungo Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 Before the previous amnesty extension, there were many threads discussing if there would be an extension. The discussions seemed to have favored the extension 60 to 70 percent vs not. It turned out there was another extension. And here we are. This time, all seem quiet.

blackcab Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 As this topic is not directly related to advice regarding visas, etc. I'm going to move it to the Covid-19 forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myself Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 Many people don´t realize, that August/September is not an extension of the amnesty but a grace period where you have only two options. Either get a visa which allows you to stay in the country or leave. Deadline is 26th September. For sure there will be no further extension. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the decision was taken, an amendment was published that makes the 60 days according to law belong to the so far extended amnesty. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NanLaew Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 There will be a 30-day amnesty extension. After that, there will be another 30-day amnesty extension. Then again. maybe there won't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the 'grace period' was only what Immigration were going to propose to the CCSA, cabinet and PM and ultimately it wasn't accepted by the CCSA cabinet and PM. Therefore we are still in the amnesty under the original rules when they invented it last April. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonray Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 Meet the requirements for an extension. Education, Retirement, Marriage, Healthcare....if not...time to go home. Plenty of options to stay here if one chooses to do so. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
