Last year, a couple in Nassau, Bahamas found 1MaidHK.com–the internet marketing arm of World Champ International Employment Agency through the internet and placed a live-in maid job order.

The job offer was too hard for any filipina domestic helper in Hong Kong to resist. It consists of 5-day work, free food, accommodation and airticket to Bahamas and four weeks paid annual leave upon completion of 2 years contract. And the good news is that the much awaited Bahamas work permit has finally been approved.

One of the filipina domestic helper working in Hong Kong who applied for the live-in maid position is now very excited to work in Bahamas after receiving the work permit and air ticket from her Bahamas employer. “Don’t easily give up amidst trial, grab every job opportunity for your family’s future and apply through a reliable agency like World Champ International Employment Agency”, Lorena says.

During the application process in Bahamas, the employer is required to post an advertisement in local newspaper. An important part of the requirement is to show that there is no suitable Bahamian candidate for the live-in maid position. The processing of Bahamas work permit took approximately 2-3 months from the time the job offer was confirmed. For the live-in maid category, the employer paid an annual fee of $650 for the work permit.

The size of the Bahamas work permit is approximately 5 inches x 7.75 inches, light yellow green in color and got one year validity from date of issue. The top of the work permit read as “Permit to engage in gainful occupation”. Information such as job position, employer’s name,employer’s residence address, live-in maid’s name as well as the applicant’s photo can also be found in the work permit.

Applicant entering through USA enroute to Bahamas is required to apply for a transit visa. The requirements and procedure of application is the same as US non-immigrant visa. Although it is cheaper to travel through the US, however, the transit visa application is not guaranteed. Another option to avoid transit visa problem is to choose a different route, which is normally via London.

Many lives have been transformed after the launching of 1MaidHK.com in a short span of time. It is believed that many more life changing job opportunity awaits many filipino domestic helpers in Hong Kong who dares to face the challenges of working abroad in the days to come.
