One of the first articles in the SCMP stated that employers who are paying by installment would not have to pay future installments, but according to the Gov't website, that's incorrect.
Employers of pre-existing contracts, i.e. contracts with visa granted before August 1, 2008, are required to continue to pay their levy as provided under the ERO. That said, they would be able to enjoy levy suspension for the new contract period when visas for contract renewal of their serving FDHs or for the hiring of new FDHs are granted at any point in time during the two-year levy suspension period. |
