The consequences of canceling wife's visa after divorce

Hi sir/madam,

I was married and before divorce, my wife did her visa under my name (that I'm her sponsor). 8 months passed since we got divorced and she is still under my visa.

If I will cancel her visa, what will happen?

Who will pay fees if she will overstay?

Currently, she is not working.

Hi,

You shall cancel the sponsorship of your wife. In fact, you are not eligible to sponsor her anymore as a husband. It will be automatically canceled. In case she overstays, she will have to pay the fines.

For further queries, please contact us via phone.

After the visa cancelation, the visa holder will be liable for fines. The sponsor is not liable for fines after cancellation. You can file an absconding report if she does overstay.

Call or WhatsApp for more details.

Greetings,

Thank you for your query!

In case you decide to cancel your ex-wife's visa, she will automatically be granted one-year extension post her divorce upon her visa cancelation.
