Half Way Through the Process, is it Possible to Cancel One Hong Kong Employment Visa Application to Start a Second One Instead?
Posted in Employment Visas, The Hong Kong Visa Geeza, Your Question Answered /
It sometimes happens that 2 job offers emerge in quick succession and you prefer to accept the 2nd one but the visa application for the first one has already started. So what happens in a situation like this?
QUESTION
I am currently in Hong Kong and about to sign a contract with a company who will sponsor my work visa since I came here basically to be with my boyfriend.
However, there might still be a chance to get an opportunity with another job I have been waiting an answer from.
My question is if it is possible to interrupt the visa processing and change it to another company before it’s issued.
I would really appreciate your advice.
