Work Permit Extension

Post by bonkers » Wed Sep 05, 2007 11:26 am

Hello

My employer is applying for my work permit extension. I was issued with a work permit in October 2003 for a 4 year period and this WP will expire in October 2007. I still need a year extension to qualify for the ILR in 2008.

My salary has not changed since the previous application, but I am paid petrol allowance and a substantial bonus.

What are the chances of the work permit being extended if the salary has remained the same as 4 years back?

Thanks.

Probably quite good if the nature of the job is the same.

Thanks VictoriaS.

The role has remained the same. Its just that the salary was never increased as I have been paid bonuses.

Should have no problem at all as long as your doing the same job.
