KTKLN for indo maid?

[yeo88]

Carebear,

Yes, my helper is back too! Had a fright on that day too as she almost missed her flight!

carebear:

She said she had no problems passing through the immigration at Yogjakata.

She told me that 2 year KTKLN = 600 000 rupiah, 3 year KTKLN = 800 000 rupiah.

Either she got ripped off, or she's lying to you.
Only 290,000 for 2 yrs.

My maid actually have KTKLN but is going to expire 16th December this year. If we need to renew the card, do we have to go through the same procedure as applying a new one ?


I intend to go to Batam with my maid. Are they open on saturday? Cause do not want to take a workday leave lah.

As my maid will only go for homeleave next year December 2012, can I ask her to extend next year instead (although the card will expire for a year already by then)?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

According to my maid, there is no issue for u to return to Indo even her KTKLN expired. She can make a new one when she return for home leave. Hence, no need to purposely make a trip to batam to make the card.

My maid with me for 6 years and she dont have the card. She just came back from her home leave. The process is fast if you have all the documents ready.

[quote=\"MMM\"]Unfortunately it is not very clear and no home leave endorsement forms are in the website. Also my maid passport is still valid, really don't feel like going throughout the hassle :frustrated:

Go to indonesian website, click on services, then foreign worker, then working agreement.
All the necessary documents are stated there and form can be downloaded too.

I saw that but frankly, I feel that it is not clear as what it merely did was to state the passport renewal process and forms as well as $35. However under the work agreement portion, they mentioned that agreement charges are free of charge. So it assumes that only those renewal of passport will need the new agreement. However for folks who do not need to renew passport but need a new agreement due to the KTKLN, what can we do.... :? I also recall that the agreement is something that can be produced on the spot.

I will try to call them (if anyone answers).[/quote]

We renewed her passport in Dec 2010 and made the new agreement. But we did a new agreement in August this year because we shifted house for her to make her KTKLN card... My colleague also went to make the agreement for her maid even though she no need to renew passport because the previous agreement expired. Seems like each agreement is valid for 2 years only.

I have thought of that possibility before.
However when I called up the office in Yogjarkarta, they quoted me 400 000 rupiah.
I know Batam is 290 000, but the return ferry fare per fax is $50 inclusive of fuel and tax. So if maid goes alone to Batam it will be almost the same as she gets it in her hometown. If you go to batam with her, you have to pay for your own ferry fare, and the time spent there- not worth it lah.

My maid paid 290 000 in her hometown....heard her friend paid 1.5M in Jarkata.

Just out of curiosity, where is your maid's hometown?

Yup, I heard in Jakarta is very expensive to make the card.

LOL...... all these discrepancy in pricing.
Anyway, I gave her $100 to make the card.
More or less, she gets to keep the extra.
Just glad she is back!

My maid made hers in Cilacap, but on the card it is stated that she made it in Semarang! :?

She is in Solo city...the nearest to her hometown if not wrong, is Semarang. I got all the documents (original & photocopy) ready for her. She said very fast.

Thanks, Mummy of 2 Princes.
If there is ever a next time, I will instruct my maid to go to Semarang, which is as far away as Cilacap from her hometown.

I kinda get the picture.
Since my maid made her card in Cilacap but it is stated as it is made in Semarang, maybe that's why more expensive, may be like go through an agent?

Btw, I also photostated all the necessary documents.
But at Yogjakarta, they insisted that she produced her birth cert and nric.
