Hello. Would like to seek advice from the experts here.
1. Currently on retirement visa and may get a work permit in the near future. What is the procedure and is there any problem if I choose to reapply for retirement visa again in future?
2. How do I apply for a dependent visa for my spouse?
Thank you very much.
TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is currently on a retirement visa and is considering obtaining a work permit in the future. They seek advice on the procedure for this transition and whether they can later revert to a retirement visa. Additionally, they inquire about applying for a dependent visa for their spouse. Experts clarify that one cannot just 'get a work permit' but needs a job offer, and they should apply for a Non-B visa after exiting the country or in-country with proper documentation. They also mention applying for a 90-day Non-O visa for the spouse and confirm that switching back to a retirement visa later is possible.
