How to remove absconding case and reduce overstay fines in agreement with employer?
Q: Hello Team I have an absconding case on which I have already managed with my sponsor due to not leaving the country, however, they have requested to pay them a penalty to remove the case which I did but now I have overstay fines. So I went to them again after paying the fines for removing the absconding as they have advised me to proceed with removing the absconding case that I will have to clear my overstay fines first. So they gave me a copy of the NOC that there is no objection in removing the absconding from immigration and applying for a waiver. My question is, will my petition to discount waiver be accepted even though I do have an absconding case on me and will this NOC work or not? I also have several reasons for overstaying as there weren’t flights back then when Covid was at the high peak and I had my passport getting renewed which I also have a letter from the embassy stating that.
