        If she has not completed her first contract with you, you cannot do the paperwork for home leave yourself, you will need an agency to do it for you. You can let her go back whenever you want; it has nothing to do with her WP expiry.

          I just got an agent to renew my maid's work permit and home leave (she is gg back next mth) after realising it is too much of a hassle to do the documentations myself at philippine embassy.

          Chanced upon this agent on a mail flyer. He popped by my place to collect and send the docs so you & your maid dont hv to step out of the house! Super convenient!
          And his fees is one of the lowest in the market (I have called up alot of agencies and compare).
          If you are keen, you can pm me for more details.
          (Rest assured i m in no way related to him. 😂 )

            Hi, Just to check, I have an indo maid.

            When she goes back for her home leave, is she still entitled to 2 weeks of pay when she is on holiday ?

                  The contract states that you should compensate her the amount of the air ticket. For a Filipina I would benchmark against the Philippine Air ticket price i.e. somewhere between the budget airline price and SQ.
