Yeah, to me this is the difficult one - someone on a temporary working visa. Unlike people who don't require visas and can can immediately start looking for work, (I understand) visas require sponsorship. This, in turn, can cause huge family and financial hardships since their lives will be uprooted as they return back to their country. Imagine one of your visa workers just bought a home two months ago and now must leave the country.

I don't know the visa working rules very well. Does anyone know how long a visa worker can reside in country while looking for another job/sponsorship?
