Questions & Answers
How can an employee cancel their visa when the sponsor does not contact immigration?
Dear Sir/Madam,
If an employee’s visa is under cancellation and the status shows “Visit Required,” but the sponsor has not yet visited immigration and the visa has expired, how can the employee cancel the visa?
Dear Questioner,
Thanks for your inquiry!
Regarding the above, we would like to inform you that, in this situation, the employee should contact their sponsor and request that they visit the immigration office to complete the cancellation process.
The sponsor is responsible for initiating the cancellation of the employee's visa, so it is important for the employee to communicate with them and follow up to ensure the process is completed.
If the sponsor is unable or unwilling to complete the cancellation, the employee can also visit the immigration office themselves and request to cancel their visa.
They may need to provide documentation and proof that their sponsor is unable to complete the cancellation.
It is important to note that the employee should not overstay their visa and should follow the proper procedures to avoid any legal issues.

Hello,
Since your visa has expired, it's important to resolve this quickly to avoid penalties. It's best to communicate with your sponsor and urge them to visit the immigration as soon as possible.

In order to cancel the visa, the employee will need to follow these steps:
1. The employee should contact their sponsor (employer) and inform them about the visa cancellation requirement. The sponsor will then need to visit the immigration office to initiate the cancellation process.
2. If the sponsor is not willing to cooperate or is unresponsive, the employee can visit the immigration office and explain the situation. They may be required to provide additional documentation or information to support the cancellation request.
3. Once the visa cancellation process has been initiated, the employee may need to pay any applicable fees for visa cancellation.
4. After the visa cancellation process is completed, the immigration office will update their records accordingly and the visa will be officially canceled.
It is important for the employee to follow the proper procedures and ensure that the visa cancellation is completed in a timely manner to avoid any potential issues or penalties in the future.

The employee can not cancel their own visa, it must be done by the employer or through court.

Hello,
The sponsor must cancel the visa himself, and if he refuses, the worker can file a labor complaint against him in this regard.
