Applying for a work visa while on a current Retirement / OA extension

Featured Replies

Maybe considering a teaching job soon. I'm currently on an OA retirement visa / extension. What happens there? I assume the retirement visa is cancelled and the school obtains me a work visa or do I have to wait for the OA extension to finish?

There is no visa that allows you to work. A work permit is needed to work.

You will not be able to change you extension of stay based upon retirement to one for working as a Teacher.

You will have to leave the country to obtain a single entry non-b visa. You will need supporting documents from the school and a police clearance certificate to apply.

Then after you get the non-b visa you will be able to apply for a work permit and have it issued. Then during the last 30 days of the 90 day entry from the visa you will be able to apply for an extension of stay based upon teaching.
