Tad Stoner Caymans’s new rollover policy does not mean an easy ride to residency for work-permit holders, but only postpones the end of their term limit, iNews has learned. Cabinet, on Tuesday, approved a set of new regulations to enable suspension of the seven-year “rollover” for up to two years. An elite committee will study permanent changes to immigration laws, but the fresh rules forbid work-permit holders from counting the legal hiatus towards permanent residency. Immigration will grant a new one-year Term Limit Exemption Permit to applicants, while employers must satisfy the same rules governing traditional work permits. The exemption permit may be renewed and the holder may continue working while the renewal is in process.
