But "last day of visa" does that mean you are in Malaysia on a tourist visa?

Hi, Rameshuk.

Did you call MDEC to ask about your visa application status?

rameshuk

Hi,

     Yes, I called to MDec. They said application status is IMM-Decision stage. And they said MDec approved but immigration still pending. It's been 25 days but still stage 1 still not approved.

Hi Gravitas,

                   My STage-1 application is still pending immigration check. And my visa is expiring by end of this month, spoke to Mdec regarding my visa and Special pass but they said no need to apply Special Pass and wait for immigration approval. Is it ok to stay without Special pass? Please help me . Thanks

Hi there. Have you gotten any updates on your IMM - Decision stage status? My husband's application is also in that status and there is still no progress. Looking forward to hear from you.
