Extension of Stay and Re-Entry Permit

[Briandajew]

Does anyone know what the situation is regarding a current multi re-entry permit tied to my 1 year extension and what needs to be done to sort it out?

My extension of stay runs out end of March, I usually apply about 20 days before that date, then I usually get a "Please Return to Immigration" stamp for the end of April when I pick up my new 1 year extension.

This year however, I will be out of the country until some time towards the end of February, when I will make my application, I will then need to leave again and return near the end of April to pick up the new extension of stay

I have a multi re entry permit, but this is tied to the current extension which runs out at the same time as the original extension - end of March.

Do you know if it is possible to have the re entry permit extended up to the "Return to immigration" date at the end of April, or do I have to apply for a new re entry permit, then another re entry permit once I am granted the next extension of stay?

I cannot seem to find anything on here about this situation. Last thing I want is to screw up my year extension because my re entry permit expires while I am out of the country.

Can I get my current multi re entry cancelled in February when I make the new extension application, then once they stamp me to return in April, apply for a new re-entry permit to cover the month or two I will be away?

Thanks!

You will need to get a new single re-entry permit to cover the under consideration period.

And the then the multiple re-entry permit when you get your extension stamp.
