Woody1 Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 I've heard (don't know how much truth there is in it) from 3 people that the above will be closed Tuesday thru Friday inclusive this coming week. Does anyone have any reliable info on this, if it is at all true? I need a Certificate of Residency this coming week, and my understanding is when applied for you need to collect it the following day. I'm applying for it in the morning, but if there's any truth in these rumours it would mean I couldn't collect it until next Monday. Thanks in advance for any info provided.

MTH Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 You can get it on the same day as you apply, here are a few recent reports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still wondering if there's any truth in the closure this week though, even though it shouldn't really affect me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R123 Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Well I hope someone can confirm ASAP about the closure as I must be one of hundreds who are due at immigration this coming week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still wondering if there's any truth in the closure this week though, even though it shouldn't really affect me. When I applied 2 weeks ago I was told by a charming and very helpful Officer that it now takes 7 days to issue this document. So, no worries . Presumably the roof is leaking if they need to shut -up shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KittenKong Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 They usually only close on public holidays and such-like. There are none of these next week according to my calendar. So I wonder what reason they might have for closing, if indeed they do close? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suradit69 Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 (edited) Any updates on this post????? I am or I was going to renew my yearly visa tomorrow "my yearly visa" Immigrations offices don't renew visas, yearly or otherwise. Possibly an extension of stay? For those of you planning to go there this week, why not phone and ask? I think this number is the correct one: Tel:038-252751-4 Edited September 9, 2013 by Suradit69 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woody1 Posted September 9, 2013 Author Share Posted September 9, 2013 Just to clear up the above, "rumours" that I received, and everyone's replies. The immigration officer confirmed that the office is open tomorrow, and the certificate was issued within 20 minutes of my number being called. Apologies for panicking anyone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(not to be taken too seriously just a light hearted rely ) I assume suggesting that someone use the telephone to call the office and ask about rumored closings is yet another example of my "superior intellect," but using the correct terms on a forum meant to inform others about Immigrations procedures doesn't strike me as being especially intellectual. I guess it's all relative. Edited September 9, 2013 by Suradit69 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Conners Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 As this appears to have been an unfounded rumor I am going to close this thread. Notify a Mod if there is any change in this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
