The HR officer at my workplace tried to cancel my work permit at the Ministry of Labor, but she was told that I needed to cancel my extension of stay at Immigration first. Anyone have any experience with this? I’ve always thought that the WP had to be cancelled before the extension of stay because the Immigration officer would need to see the papers from MOL.
