Can anybody tell me the actual expense for the KITAP renewal. I am now on KITAP I. thanks a lot
One more: MY renewal of KITAP 1 is due March 2018. My PP is valid till DEc 2018. Should I get a new pp before applying for the new KITAP or can I get it in the old pp and then somehow transfer it to a new one? Hanks a lot
Can you tell me why I do not received your answer on my email. At the old livinginindonesia forum you got alway all answers on your thread. Thanks
Anything over 6 months validity on the passport should be fine. Afterwards just bring both old and new passports when you travel.
You can have your KITAP and MERP transferred to a new passport, it takes one day at immigration and I believe the fee is very minimal if at all.
I thought the same; 12 months for a six month KITAS and 18 months for a one year KITAS. I don't remember the requirements for KITAP.
Luckily my country provides 10 year passports now. Very convenient.
Same as me and that's why I recall the 18 month rule. Canada used to issue passports for max 5 years and, when I wanted to renew, so I could get a new kitas, my passport had more the 12 months validity. I had to argue with Canadian immigration why I needed a new passport.
Canada now offers 10 year passports.... which I recently achieved.
I had less than a year on my passport AND it was an emergency passport. Also, I applied for my extension only 1 day before the expiration of my ITAP!
As you noted, there are NO stipulation in the Law concerning the expiration date of your passport which would forbid you to apply and the ITAP to be issued.
And welcome to our forum by the way.
Good morning forum! Does anybody know where I can download the different PERDIMs such as 24, 25, 26,27. thks a lot.
And - if you have a KITAP (no limited anymore) do you still have to apply every 2 years for MERPs?
If you intend to give them a call, perhaps you can politely educate them. The relevant regulation is the Peraturan Menteri Hukum dan HAM RI nomor 27 tahun 2014 tentang prosedur teknis pemberian, perpanjangan, penolakan, pembatalan dan berakhirnya ITK, ITAS dand ITAP serta pengecualian dari kewajiban memiliki izin tinggal. This is impossible they don't have it. They just did not read it in full or memorize it.>Me : "Also, does not the national Immigration regulations state that a request for ITAP renewal must be submitted no later than 1 day before the expiration of one's current ITAP."
> Official : "I am not aware of that regulation. We instruct holders of ITAP to submit all required documents at least 7 calendar days before the expiration of one's current ITAP to avoid any overlap with the expiration date of one's current ITAP." [then this official turned to her colleague and asked about the regulation concerning minimum amount of time a ITAP holder must submit one's request for ITAP renewal before expiration date of one's current ITAP] Her colleague : "I do not know; should confirm that with our supervisor."
