Not immediate, but within a month or so, you need to inform. I am not sure if the info gets automatically updated, but I guess 1 month is a reasonable period of time.BrighterDay wrote:2. After divorcing, do I need to inform ICA immediately?

You should preferably stick to one lawyer, who knows immigration related stuff. Consulting many lawyers may give different answers, as they say, there's more than one way to skin a cat.BrighterDay wrote:Hmm, sound super complicated to me and I have been advising by different lawyers but they keep giving me different answers so I'm really confused.

Try to get a job with a higher pay. 36,000 $ is cutting it close. It is borderline illegal to stay on a Long term pass when you are not married to the sponsor. Unless of course the papers aren't finalised and your husband lets you stay while the fine prints are read and dotted lines signed. That may buy you a few months if both of you are amicable.

Well, again, from what I know, post divorce, there's no cooling off period. You can get married as soon as you have your divorce finalised. However, ROM may suggest you to go through the pre-marriage counselling. No clue on that. But I guess you should have given up your LTVP before going on your next try. I am not sure how ROM or ICA share information.

Lastly, where do you hail from ? That may play in your favour if you are looking for a Plan B

Thank you SMS, not to worry.sundaymorningstaple wrote:BrighterDay, please don't mind him. Sadly this is an open board so we do get all kinds here, so please, just take it with a grain of salt. Some here are not always as mature as they should be.
I don't know about MOM being instantly notified by ROM, but as I said, 30 day is about the maximum leeway you could expect, in between.BrighterDay wrote:Thank you SMS, not to worry.sundaymorningstaple wrote:BrighterDay, please don't mind him.

I'm here just to figure out how my problems can be solved. Can't be bothered with all the irrelevant things with my topic.
Also appreciate much for all the attention as well as kindness advises that have been given.
I will update everything again after I go through this whole process in case there is someone having a same issue or question as me.
Cheers

And holding a VN passport, you can't do much for visa extension as well.
Switch to Plan B: Look for a good paying job and get your own Pass.
Particular attention should be paid to the last line. Once you are divorced, your ex-husband is no longer your spouse. Therefore to answer that question, you cannot remain on the LoC after the divorce and when (not if) you get caught, both your and your ex will probably be ejected from the country for trying to defrauding the government. Be careful. Very careful.Eligibility for Applications
