Help ! Indian employment visa question

Nick-H · May 21st, 2007, 16:36

Well, given that it is kind-of supposed to be my specialist subject, my memory was vague --- but then I always tended to keep information on the shelf rather than in my head

.

Thanks, anyway

. Glad it was helpful.

I would not get a tourist visa as your employment visa is a better one. Go to Indian High Commission and check with them and hopefully it will be sorted.

It would be great to see you again when you are back, let me know if you have time for a meet-up.

This was in New Zealand, about a month ago. It only took 2 days to process to! and that included the time to courier the package accross the country!

Wow! Thanks mairangi vice. And they didn't ask for proof that it was not possible to recruit an Indian national?

We have amassed a huge dossier which we have to supply as supporting documentation! It looks as if the renewal process will take at least a month for renewal through FRRO in Chennai, and it will have to go to Delhi. I have over a month left on my visa so we need to see how it goes and whether or not I will need to make a quick visit back to the UK if it doesnt look like coming through on time....
