In order to assist talents coming to Hong Kong through Gao Caitong to solve visa problems, the Hong Kong Gao Caitong Talent Service Association held a “Dialogue with the Director of Immigration and the Deputy Secretary for Labor and Welfare on Gao Caitong Visa Renewal” yesterday (27th). Many participants are concerned that the current economic situation is not good and it is difficult to find a high-paying job. Some participants asked online whether there will be any rigid requirements such as income when renewing the visa.

Labor and Welfare Bureau: A monthly salary of more than 20,000 yuan is a reasonable figure

Director of Immigration Kwok Chun-feng responded that there is no specific salary requirement when renewing the visa. He also pointed out that each case is different and will be considered based on the salary and position. Ho Kai-ming, deputy director of the Labor and Welfare Bureau, pointed out that the median income in Hong Kong is more than 20,000 yuan. More than 1.5 million wage earners think that more than 20,000 yuan is a reasonable number, but they must be careful whether they are engaged in the industry that they should do in their undergraduate studies.

Some participants at the scene asked if they start a business by starting their own company, are there any mandatory requirements for renting an office or hiring someone when renewing the visa? Guo Junfeng replied that the key point is that the company must have real business activities and contribute to Hong Kong’s economy. The prescription will make different considerations based on each situation, but there is no hard limit on how many employees it needs to hire.

In addition, some people also asked whether the main applicant of a family with high talents who came to Hong Kong was the husband. However, the husband later worked in the Mainland due to business, and the wife, who was a dependent, found a job in Hong Kong. Can the visa be renewed after two years? , allowing his wife and children to continue to stay in Hong Kong. Immigration Department personnel who participated in the meeting responded that when considering renewal cases, the Immigration Department will only look at the work situation of the main applicant, that is, the husband. If the husband is employed by a Hong Kong company and is then sent to work in the Mainland, the Immigration Department will most likely allow the renewal, but reminds the main applicant. If your stay in Hong Kong is insufficient, it may affect your future application for permanent residence. On the contrary, if the husband is not employed by a Hong Kong company, he will not be able to meet the renewal conditions; as for the wife, if she finds a job and meets the requirements for highly talented individuals, she can apply for the renewal herself as the main applicant, and the husband will become a dependent. Guo Junfeng also added that if the prescription finds that someone is deliberately avoiding the renewal requirements, their application may be rejected.

Someone asked what kind of help the Hong Kong government can provide to talents. He Qiming pointed out that the authorities have opened a talent office in the Wan Chai Taxation Building. For needs such as employment in Hong Kong and children’s education, talents can apply for high-talent visas online. The government will Find some trustworthy intermediaries to answer your questions and provide assistance.
