the passport number is that of my OLD passport... not the new one. My question is how hard is it to get this changed?
Very difficult to cancel an existing visa now. This employment visa will have to be cancelled, it cannot be changed/modified I believe.
I say you have two options:
1. Use the visa. You do not have any ban stamped on previous passport right?
2. Ask your employer to cancel the visa and at the same time apply for another one using the new passport. Hmmm but there might be some problems along the way if Immigration notices there are 2 passport of the same identity.....
Also the visa is only for 30 days? But contract is for 6 months?
Employment visa needs to be used within 30 days (I thought 60) upon print out/release. And then another process for Residence visa begins when you enter the country .
Wait a sec, contract is only for 6 months? and they are giving you an employment visa?
