Pay the fine and obtain temporary residence for three months
Ministry of Interior intends to issue a decision soon to grant holders of Articles 18 and 22 visas who violated the residency law a chance to pay the fines related to their violations and obtain temporary residence for three months, provided they correct their status during that period for ensuring their legal stay in the country, reports Aljarida daily quoting sources from Ministry of Interior.
They revealed that those who fail to rectify their situation within this period will be deported and barred from entering Kuwait again. The sources said this decision will also apply to Syrian residents who hold work permits or dependent (family) visa.
Regarding the issue of Syrian refugees who entered the country on visit visas after the crisis broke out in Syria, and did not leave despite the expiry of their visas, the sources indicated that the Supreme political leadership will decide about this issue. Meanwhile, a total of 7,039 illegal residents have adjusted their legal status during the period from 2011 until end of August 2015, the Central Apparatus for Illegal Residents’Affairs said here on Saturday.
