Former company refused to issue Release Letter - can I sue them?

Hi,
Did you get any answer because I have the same situation, I want to understand if I can sue my ex employer for not providing release letter

Of course not, you broke your contract! (I assume from the context). If the contract legally ended then contact immigration. If not contact a lawyer.

Hello, did u find any solution for this now, because i have the same issue, which is my contract finished since August 2020. And now i find a new job that giving me EP II (before was in ep3)

I really want to get out from this situation..
Thankyou

I already returned to my home country to wait for calling visa. Here is answer from MDEC for my release letter problem (even though I finished my contract legally). Hope it could clarify your problem.

"Please be informed that company has right not to issue Release Letter. In addition, issuance of Release Letter is subject to company's Agreement with Employee.

However, please be informed that the applicant will required to exit if no release letter is provided. As such kindly clarify and negotiate with your company accordingly."
