Just got a call from my school stating that I need to change my visa because of a new policy..(I renewed my visa in May)...I asked"why"? they said "the main reason is that schools(public,private) cannot charge students for a foreign teacher (which has been for some time, but the schools get around it) so the process is that the school(middle) that I will be teaching will come to the psb with me showing that they can have (not employ) a foreign teacher at their school. So the visa is redone, somewhere stating that I am employed there, not for the school I have signed a contract with. I just got a call now saying that our foreign experts certificate will be under the school we teach at, not for the company we work for.???
Does anyone know anything about this? Specifically for those who do not work directly for a school.
My thought..no big deal..but, what if I have a problem in the future..the psb says I work for this school, but have a contract with this company...the school I work at doesn't have a license to "hire" a foreign teacher, but can "have" one by going through a company...when I quit my job, what problems am I going to face?Is this legit or only for my school???..seriously, the psb needs a forum where we can get q's answered without having to worry about bs..Jabaru..you're the queen of info when it comes to these q's..whatcha think???
Thanks all for the timely responses..may need to go to cq in the next few days....
