Thanks Sir. But, the school where I work at present says, THEY WANT TO CANCEL MY PERMIT THAT IS VALID TILL 15TH MARCH 2017 by 15th Dec 2016 (1 month extn I may get). If So, then what possibility for me to shift to a new school. (I AM STILL IN SEARCH OF A NEW INTL SCHOOL, MAY BE BY 10TH DEC,I CAN MANAGE TO GET ON). Kindly do guide me by email and I'll contact you after your email for further discussion. Is there a clause like, "I HAVE TO LEAVE THE COUNTRY FOR A 6 MONTHS GAP BEFORE I CAN SHIFT TO A NEW SCHOOL"

Its possible for you to get the work permit only if the NEW INT SCHOOL is willing to giving you the approval letter. Btw, you can email me at hang_lipo91@yahoo.com for further discussion. FYI, there is a clause like you've mentioned above but with us you can proceed your application without leaving the country.
