    Work visa extension - how long does it take?

    Hello all,

    I am close to completing my first year of employment in HK. Originally from the USA, and my work visa expires in about 3 weeks.

    I am going to the immigration office to extend it for 2 years. Does anyone know how long this might take to get the new extension issued?

    Assuming you give them everything they need and it's all straightforward, should be ready to pick up in a week or so.

    And you can do it online - no need to go to the Immigration office.

    Thank you. I actually applied in person and got it on the same day!
