Good day,

We applied for Postgraduate work permit/ spouse open work permit/study permit for my kids then my husband pqwp was approved and transferred my sowp/sp to Nairobi, now got a letter asking for my hubby employment letter and pay slips, his last job was in May please advise
Multi post. Does your husband have a job now? To get SOWP, he needs to show proof of employment And payslips.

Did you submit the employment letter and paystub initially?

A piece of information I would like to share here, My batch applied for pgwp around the same time May 12-May15. Interestingly all graduated students from Pakistan got their approval by around mid June. The rest of us are still waiting. Around 5 students from Pakistan, so any theory here?
