Ugh.
I was asking our HR and indirectly our visa handlers whether I can fly abroad in July/August or if that will complicate my visa renewal process in late August.
I asked early last month and chased them for a response twice. I haven't heard from them for two weeks, and the latest was that they will be checking and they apologized for taking time.
Now I found out that they went to my manager's manager and asked for approval for an extra administrative fee for early application because I "will be flying abroad" during the period I need to be in HK.
Instead of telling me two weeks ago "it's possible, but will require an admistrative fee", in which case I would have said ok, then I won't fly.
Now instead I've got my manager's manager asking my manager why I'm so irresponsible and leaving the city in the middle of my visa process, when I was literally waiting with my decision and first making sure it would not be a complication.
My manager will sort this out. I forwarded him my original request "[is it possible to fly during that time or would that complicate things]", which HR or whoever turned into "will fly during that time" somewhere along the way.
OK...just found out a serious complication.
My other doctor handling my cardiovascular exam has scheduled an appointment for me next Tuesday, but they are requiring me to pay a past due amount of $194 before they can admit me. If I can't pay at that time, then they would have to reschedule me until I am able to pay, at an additional cost of $75...
