Kitas to kitap survey and work permit

[vincewonk]

Hi guys,
I'm an indonesian guy who married to korean.
We got married for 2 years already. And we decided to convert from itas to itap. Finally completed the document and we just paid everything. And the last step will be the survey.

Just curious with the survey that me and my wife will have next week. Tried to searched around but seems that not many discussion about this one.

1. Will they look around my house and take a picture of my room for example? Already checked the interview questions in the other thread. My korean wife barely speaks any english, not even indonesian. I'm afraid this will be a huge issue.

2. If my wife want to work for a company after she got her ITAP, it seems the only thing she need is imta or rptka from company right? I can't find itap kerja.

Thanks

It's an interview not a survey

I'm confused. How did you get a Kitap? If your wife is Korean? She sponsors you? Who sponsors her?
But she wants to work?
Do you work?

Your post doesn't make sense to me

I'm indonesian here.
I edit my post to clear up everything.
My wife is the one who want to get a kitap (sponsored by me)

She didn't work now, but i read an article that itap owner will be easier to work in the company.
I did work.

My last interview was a while back. They did take photos, but only of the kamar tamu and of various documents. My Indonesian wife (at the time) didn't give them leave to wander around the house. (She is the sort to get away with treating government employees like personal employees.) They said they would talk to the neighbors, but the house wasn't in a housing development (rukos everywhere), so I don't think they got far. Pak RT/RW also work, so they probably didn't meet them, either.

It's been a while, so I'm scratching for details and not coming up with much in the way of actual memories of the event.

You know how much difference there can be between local offices for something like KanIm. You might get more relevant answers if you tell us where you are located. I'm in Bandung.

If your house is a standard normal house (not flashy, etc) nothing to worry...just let them in (two people came to mine many years ago and they asked typical questions, making sure you're not a scam...and they took a picture of me and them, and the house/living room as a background...in my case, they tried to take a picture of us with the house number too. Don't be nervous...just do the usual small talk first "What kind of drink you'd like..coffee? etc" Tell your wife don't be nervous...in some cases (like mine..) it took about 10-15 minutes, mostly just talk about formalities first then about the flood (my parent's house was flooded before), etc. and then took pictures and they left.

We had them sat outside in the garden & shut the dogs in the house, & I think that in your case asking them to sit in just the one space is acceptable considering the virus situation.

I can’t help with the interview process, I’m afraid.

If your wife possesses the necessary skills, qualifications and experience to be employed in Indonesia, the company recruiting will sort everything out. They will help with work permit, Npwp. These jobs are few and far between, to be honest.

The majority of WNA I know, who are married to WNI work within the family environment.

1. It's an interview to ascertain your marriage situation. Usually, they will give you short notice that they are on the way to your house (a few hours). Normally, it is ok just to have it on the porch of your house, which is where I had mine.

2. The employing company will arrange for IMTA, while your wife remains on the spousal KITAP.

Don't worry too much. They just want to make sure you're a genuine couple. Make sure you have obvious evidence of your relationship, such as framed pictures within view of wherever they will sit. If you have a kids, it's even better. They are courteous like any other guest and will sit wherever you tell them to sit and won't go off wandering around.

I also lived in ruko as well in Tanah Abang, Central Jakarta. Thanks for the tips, especially from your indonesian wife about treating them like personal employee

Luckily we lived in ruko that looks dirty, its already been 35 years old and below is the store. Not a flashy house for sure.

Really appreciated the information and thanks a lot!
