If your visa is cancelled, you will have one month to transfer your visa to a new employer. I am not sure if your previous employer can insist that you pay the monthly GOSI fees but that is a possibility...

Your employer can ask you to pay if you have not honored the terms of the contract, what i mean is if you have signed a contract of 2 years and your putting down your papers before the term completion then the employer has the right to sue you for damages according to law.

Can I please know what the employer possibly may do if I put the papers before completion of my  term?  He will sue means? What will they do actually?
