vulnerable Workers open work permit

[DevPratap]

Hello ,
I have applied for OWP -V in June , as my employer did not paid me my dues of April and all of sudden he closes his business and filed for bankruptcy,
I’m on close work permit and I’m here with my family including 2 kids to feed .
But as I’m on close work permit I can’t work anywhere else and it’s been very tough situation for me ,
Now my close work permit is going to expired in Sep.
I would like to know can my spouse and my kids can stay with me if my vulnerable open work permit approves .
And what are the chances of getting it approved.

All help appreciated

What type of permits are they on? Usually the VOWP is given for one year or up until closed work permit expiry. VOWP takes months for processing and closing business may not be a reason. It is for abuse (see link).

Your permit needs to be longer than 16 months for spouse and kids to keep their permits.

And if your permit is going to expire next month, can’t see them giving you a year

Plus as mentioned, it’s not abuse
