[carebear]

carebear.. my helpder renewed her passport last year and the working agreement will end next year.. if she go back this year does that meanm the KTKLN card validity will tie to her expiry of this working agreement, u know?

From what I know, as long as the KTKLN is still valid before she leaves Indonesia to come back here to work, you don't need to apply for another card.

However if she has not applied for the card before, then i think (this one i am not sure) the KTKLN card will follow the expiry of the working agreement.
The last time i tried calling and leaving emails with the embassy to no avail.

It would be better if you could go down and draft a new working agreement. They are very efficient there.

You can go to the embassy to draft a new copy of working agreement even if you are not renewing passport.

I am unsure about validity piece as in our case, my maid's agreement has expired. We just needed the working agreement for the purpose of KTKLN. But you can explain to the officer why you are doing so. My personal feel is that it's better to have a contract that covers the entire application period to avoid any complications.

Yes can just go to draft agreement. When I was there I saw some employers doing just that.

The working agreement validity will in sync with the work permit.
At the embassy, you will be given list of documents for her to bring along when she makes the card.


She needs to bring 2 copies of her passport, 2 copies of work permit, original work agreement(prepared at the Indonesia embassy) and the insurance, which is purchased just before application of the card in Indonesia. Original WP and passport must be produced too.

However according to my maid the amout varies in different parts of Indonesia. Also according to my maid, some offices require their ic and birth cert, otherwise cannot.

My maid went to Yogjarkarta one and they required birth cert and ic so she wasted her time there as she did not have it with her.
So she had to make another trip to another town 5 hours away from her house. The office was in Cilacap.

Surabaya is probably more centralised so they may not require IC or BC. But this one I dunno.
The last time my miad called the office in Yogjakarta, they did not instruct her either. But maybe cos she did not specifically ask.
You may call up the office in Surabaya to enquire.

The other way is you bring her to Batam and make.

the working agreement is not tie to work permit i think, as when i brought my maid to renew her passport last year, her work permit is not renewed yet… meaning epxiring in a month’s time and indo embassy still give us 2 years working agreement…not very sure on this part.

Yes I also not sure about that part.

My former maid ic and bc and passport got different birthday so before she came here she had to get a doctor in Indonesia to certify the correct birthday!
