Dear Members of the community,
I request you to please reply with your expert advise on my below condition and if possible, with details-
1. I accepted an offer from a local company in oman in feb 2015. As per the employment agreement, i have to join the firm on or before 15 march 2015. An employment visa was then issued on my name on 23 march 2015. but even after getting my visa, my employer was not very keen on calling me to oman and they continuously delayed my joining date with no assurance on the joining date. during the waiting period for my joining, i got an offer from another reputed firm but as a visa had already been issued on my name, i was not able to join the proposed firm till today,
So based on the present circumstances, i request you all to please clarify my below mentioned doubts, in detail if possible
a) my visa expiry date is 22.06.2015. After expiry of my visa, do i still need some kind of release letter/ NOC from my previous employer in order to get another employment visa from another firm.
b) if i do need NOC/ release letter from my employer and they refuse to issue the same, can i approach the ministry of manpower to resolve the issue as the fault was with my employer. please clarify
c) after expiry of my issued visa, how soon my new employer can apply for a new visa.
d) i have not entered oman on the previously issued visa, so the 2 year ban will be effective in my case also?
e) if my new employer have required labour clearance, how soon a new visa can be issued ( considering time taken for certificate and medical report attestation)?
f) I heard that if my previous employer collects my issued visa from royal oman police office, then the visa validity is increased to another 3 months, please confirm. the same.
g) The issued employment visa will automatically expires after the expiry date or the employer has to cancel the same after expiry date. please confirm
a detailed answer will help me out more and i sincerely looking forward for your help regarding the same.
Please reply me as soon as possible
