Answer summary

A user is seeking advice on the implications of quitting their job when their work permit is set to expire in April while their length of stay extends until November. Comments advise that upon quitting, one needs to cancel their work permit and their extension of stay simultaneously, and suggests obtaining a termination letter from the employer to assist with the process.

If the latter you need to cancel your work permit then cancel your extension of stay the same day and leave the country. If you have a choice you may get your employer to state in a letter you finish work on xx/xx date and you can use that to cancel the work permit. Take the letter to immigration and they will change your stamp until that day.

If you are here on a visa you can stay until your admitted to stay date. However if you here on an extension of stay due to work then that expires the day you stop working.
