Hi Luiza,

Did you tried to contact the Indonesia embassy in Mauritius? https://www.embassypages.com/missions/embassy15086/ Maybe they can enlighten you.

IIRC You may be allowed to stay on the island until your children reach the age of 18.
I don't know where you should go in Port-louis  but calling someone on this site could be helpful;

Thank you so much for ur information dear, i ll read the link.. Have a good day ☺️

the best for you is to get permit residence or Indifinate stay, but dont take nationality. this should allow you to do everything

How can she do that when she won't be on a spouse of Mauritian permit after her divorce?

she should already have that since she have been married from 10 years, futhermore if your stay is more then 10 years continuesly you can also apply on that basis for indifinate stay if you dont have that.
There are many ways you can make your case, just see good immigration solicitor

So what do you say about this:

Loss of status of resident

(2) Where a person has acquired his status of resident under section 5 (1) (c), he shall cease to be a resident 6 months after the termination of the marriage to the citizen.
