Hi JeffB,
I would be grateful if you can give me an answer. I noted you mentioned before that if a Philippines maid goes back to Philippines for holiday, they can claim exemption for training and come back to Hong Kong after holiday. Is there any charge for claiming the exemption? Where (or which department) does she need to go to claim exemption?
ANS:{Those presently working with existing employment contracts or vacationing maid are now fully exempted. There is nothing to claim or apply, its automatic. But be sure to apply OEC from Philippines Consulate before leaving HK for vacation}
