Consequences of non-renewal of visa and labour contract
Kindly advise what can I do now that my visa already expired (expiry date is 04.04.2019). I keep waiting for my boss to have it renewed as he promised it will be renewed.
The grace period is already finished and at this time, I have not received his advised for renewal yet. My labour contract is also not renewed.
I am still working with them but I feel like somebody will just catch me as at this time I know I am over-staying. Is filing a resignation and complaining to labour the solution for my situation?
I also have a credit card that I agree for a settlement a few months back, but since our salary is always delayed, the bank said they will cancel the settlement and will file a case.
How can I check if I really have a case now? Can the police just put me in jail?
Hoping you can somehow give me advice.
Dear Sir/ Madam,
Thank you for reaching out to me on this.
You can simply put in your termination and proceed to Tahseel centre to cancel your labour card. They will assist you.
Considering that the labour contract has expired, the question of notice period does not arise. You must approach the authorities soon or else these overstay fines will increase.
You can appoint a lawyer or go by yourself to the police station to enquire about the cases against you.
I trust you will find this helpful.
Regards,
Hari Wadhwana
