I lost my job in August (my clients were CX, and Marriott - Travel related) and my work visa is up in a few weeks (November). I am wondering what will happen when I ask for an extension during Covid. I know before I could just leave and enter as a tourist with 3 more months, now of course that is not an option.
I am an American and I have lived in Asia for 18 years (13 in China and now 3 in HK). I do not have a home in the US to got back to, I would love to get to anywhere in SEA to ride this out but of course its all closed.
When I called immigration they said show up on the day your visa expires and ask for an extension and it is case by case. No one could say for how long or what to expect? Has anyone heard?
Anyone know what will happen to my extension request? Any options?
