Six special cases where online renewals won’t work

Back in operation: The foreign workers application counter is now open to the public at the Immigration Department in Putrajaya.

PETALING JAYA: The Immigration Department has listed six special cases in which employers of foreign workers may renew work permits over the counter instead of online.

Its foreign workers division director Farah Adura Hamidi said the special cases had come up while employers were applying for renewals during MyEG Services Bhd’s online system’s proof-of-concept (POC) period, scheduled to end on Feb 28.
