Spouse Visa

[Saleg]

Have a Retirement Visa but recently married South Korean National with Work Permit. Can I change my Visa?

Does your Spouse have a 12 month extension of stay from Immigration?

If she is on an extension of stay you can change to a dependent extension. But you would not be able to do it until your current extension is due renewal.

Thanks for your reply. Yes a twelve month extension has been granted.

Thank you Global Moderators. Will check with Immigration before my next Retirement Application Renewal.
