Good afternoon All,

Is it possible to get a family visa for my wife while she is here with me on family visit visa? I know it is mandatory to exit the country for changing the visa. But I want to know whether I will get a family visa for her without exiting the country?

The best option is to check with your company PRO

Hi
My employer says they'll be arranging visa for family during my first joining so that we can move together. It was like a pleasant surprise for me... I think they will get Visit Visa for my family along with my Employment Visa in one go. I don't think its mandatory to exit the country to change visa category in this scenario.
