Dear all, I need your advice and thanks in advance....

I really confused right now with hows the procedure to cancel your visa 18 in Kuwait (I worked for 1.5 years). I did pass my resignation letter a couple months ago to my employer and he said he will let me go. But untill now we havent cancel and last time my employer said he will cancel it right before the day I leave Kuwait. i bought my air ticket back home for Aug 26 already, anyone knows hows the procedure to cancel it and how long will it take? Can I do it by myself and where to go?

You're employer is saying right.,but sometimes hard to believe. But yeah they will cancel your visa right after you leave that country. Look if they will cancel your visa and you are still there you'l be question at the airport. And even they don't cancel it. You will have to wait after 6months in order to delete,erase or desolve all your records.

no Saljai, incorrect.

you can cancel your visa and remain in the country on a temporary visa to get your affairs in order before you leave.

if you ever plan on returning, ensure you are cancelling your visa properly so u dont cause problems for yourself when you want to return, if ever.

the place to ask is located in Kuwait City, its behind KIPCO Tower, on the same road as Dar Al Awadhi, like keep dar al awadhi on your right, take the first right, head straight, you'll find a roundabout, its the building to the right of the roundabout, there is also a police training academy, the KPTC bus station, and the police impound lot for cars. Go there on sunday, ask around. Take someone with you who speaks arabic tho.

Maybe we are in different situation.,Coz I cancel my visa. That's what their protocol and maybe also in different ways in how your company will do it. But that's the way my company did.,they give me actually 3months to stay there but I rather want to go home so after I got home they cancel my visa.

can i cancel my visa on my own?  If yes,  how can I do that. I came into Kuwait on a false invitation . Was given a visa to work in a company for 150kd. When I arrived,  I was taken to work on a farm and having been receiving 70kd. My contract will be ending soon. I have seen new employers interested in my skill as a graduate and my current is sturbbonly unwilling to transfer me.  Please advice me how do I proceed forward?

Yes, it's simple just go to your sponsor and ask him to give you final termination and then go to immigration , they have a certain procedures which you need to follow. That's all.
