Hello good day every one.....

All the requirements was there already except for my Medical examination...So now it's almost 3 months waiting for my working visa....the other day I called the agency to follow-up my visa status...but they just told me to wait for there calls and...so now I just get upset and feeling frustrated because I sacrifice alot ....the time , Money and other opportunities like intrvws for other employer...how can I go for ntrvw if I dont have passport etc...

I think most companies will let you start work with a tourist visa for the time you wait for the work visa.
At least that is what my company is doing.

It's should take less than a month or 2 weeks but it all depends on your company procedures and their visa officer. Contact your company and follow up with them.
