Hi,
Any idea how long does the renewal of SS visa takes? I own a property here but I don't live here it's been two weeks that I am waiting. Old visa is expired and I can't leave the country and I need to get back to work in Mumbai. I thought SS visa renewal will not take much time. Now some are saying maximum it will take 4 months and minimum 2 months. I've emailed here Self.Sponsorship@npra.gov.bh, they are very quick to respond. But doesn't know much and how much time it will take!!
Also can you please suggest what kind of visa is the best for a property owner like myself, who doesn't live here but I do come here thrice or more a year. I have rented out my apt now and so the bank account here is very helpful with paying the EWA and maintenance of my apt. If I cancel the SS visa my CPR and bank AC won't work ( this is what I got to know) which will be a hassle for me. Please help
