How to join a new employer on a new visa while a labor case is ongoing?
Hello,
I have an ongoing labor case with my old employer for unpaid salary. I also have an offer letter from another company.
Can I start a new job on a new visa while the labor case is ongoing?
What is the process I need to follow?

Hi questioner,
Yes, you can join the new company by making an application at the court for NOC for work which will be valid for 6 months initially and can be extended for 6 more months.
You cannot start with a new visa processing as you won't be able to cancel your previous visa during the case proceedings and for that, you can provide your new employer with a NOC from the court.
Once the judgment is passed in your favor, you may cancel the visa and file for the execution of the judgment.
Thanks!
