Dear Questioner,

Thank you for reaching out with your inquiry regarding the cancellation of an unused pre-approval for a work permit and the possibility of applying for a visit visa.

To address your concerns:

- Canceling Unused Work Permit Pre-Approval:

To cancel an unused pre-approval for a work permit, you will typically need to follow the established procedures of the relevant authorities.

I recommend contacting MOHRE then Immigration Authorities to initiate the cancellation process.

If you encounter any challenges during this process, I can provide further assistance and guidance to ensure a smooth resolution.

- Applying for a Visit Visa:

If the pre-approval for the work permit exists without cancellation, it may impact your ability to apply for a visit visa.

It is crucial to resolve the work permit pre-approval status before proceeding with a visit visa application to avoid any complications.

Once the cancellation is confirmed, we can explore the necessary steps to apply for a visit visa.

I understand the importance of resolving these matters efficiently, and I am here to guide you through the process.

If you would like to discuss your situation in more detail or if you have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to me via WhatsApp or phone.

If it's not canceled properly, then your visa application can be rejected because of that reason.
