    Working while my work visa transfers

    My current employer has sponsored my work visa but I'm about to change my job. Can my new employer submit the Visa Transfer form to the ImD while I'm still working with the current job? Or do I have to quit, stop working and then have my new employer submit the form to the ImD? Would like to minimise the days off from work. Thank you.

    I went through that procedure a few years ago. My new employer started to process the work visa while I was still employed with the old one - there was no problem at all. The minute I signed the contract and resigned from my old job the change of employment process started and I got the new work visa 3 weeks later.
