Hi,

I need to renew my dependency visa. It expires on May 12, 2005. I understand that the earliest date I can renew my visa is April 12, 2005 (1 month prior). The problem is this: I am currently working in Japan and cannot take any time off after April 12, 2005. The only time I am available is between April 1 to April 4, 2005. Do anyone please have any suggestions as to how I can beg the HK immigration or go about in asking the HK immigration office to let me renew my dependency visa before April 12, ie, between April 1 to April 4??? Any suggestions will be most helpful.

I renewed my dependend visa more than 1 month before it expired at the end of last year (because I was overseas for the month before it expired). You may have another problem though, because usually you go in once to give them the paperwork and then are given another time 2-3 weeks later to come back to get the visa. Probably if this is the case they will be able to give you a letter to cover you. Try telephoning their enquiries line to check on this, you may have to hold for a while but for a straightforward question like this they should be able to give you an answer.
