For the upfront cost paid, can claim some from the agency?

Hi there, I have an Indon helper who has been with us for almost 6 years, and will be up for renewal soon. We may want to renew for only 1 year, as she has hiked up her asking rate and we are considering not having a helper as the kids are older now.


1) Can we renew an indon helper’s contract for just one year?

2) Do i have to get a new KPIS or other paperwork from the indon embassy?

Thanks for your help 🙏

1. Renew WP as usual.
2. Don’t need to do new KPIS.

You nid hwvr to check her passport validity for at least 1.5 years then. If ever u’re transferring her out, ensure her passport is valid for at least 2 years. If her passport is up for renewal, once u renew its for at least 5 years. So no issue then for next eyer.

Am arranging the helper to attend the Home-Based training on CPR and AED by SG Caregiver. Fee is $10 after the grant. If the process of applying for the grant is simple, I will explore further in FY22.
