Happy New Year 2022!!! LTSVP, work endorsement, Residence Pass

Hi everyone!  Long time didn't write.  Ok let's get to the point.

Back in November 2021, I made appointment to renew my husband's work endorsement, which was then expiring in December 2021.  So as per previous years, I made the appointment close to the expiry date.

As his LTSVP was also expiring in Jan 2022, I just filled up all the necessary forms to apply together, just like previous years.  Bear in mind, he has been in Malaysia since 2012.

However, the appointment was so full that I manage to make the appointment few days after the expiry date of the work endorsement, which I believed should be fine.

On the appointment day, as usual we stopped at the Court first which is just about 20 minutes walk from JIM in order to get the Commissioner of Oath certification on the marriage status.  

But come to think of it, there is now a Commissioner of Oath on the 2nd floor of JIM Putrajaya.  So, you don't really have to walk to the Court.

After we have done at the Court, we went to JIM Putrajaya to queue.  At the Ground Floor, the officer will check your documents to see if everything is in order before allowing you to proceed and give you a sequence number.

We got the number and went to 3rd floor to wait for our turn.  After 2 hours, we were called and I went to the counter and submitted all the forms.  However, the officer said they no longer do manual submission for LTSVP.  Instead I was supposed to submit online.

My bad for not listening to my gut feelings.  I have read about this in the Foreign Spouses Support Group in FB but I thought I can still do manual.  I mean it was only implemented in December 2021 and so I assumed that we can still do manual submission.  It's really my bad for not checking and not listening to my gut feelings that kept telling me to submit online, but I didn't.

So here's the deal.  Submit the renewal of LTSVP online.  Once it is approved within 3 working days, you will receive email and then you are to pay online as well.  Print out the receipt and make appointment again.  Go to JIM again and then repeat the above steps and when your number is called, submit your all your documents together with the work endorsement renewal and then wait for your them to call you again.

The 2nd time they call you, it's to check against the original documents.  Then wait again and the 3rd and final time they call you is to collect your passport.  

We finished in 3 hours time.  So I highly complement JIM for allowing online submission now.  I just hope work endorsement can also be submitted online too.

Next, we will attempt to apply for Residence Pass.  Once approved, he can stay and work for 5 years.  If anyone would like to apply for this, please drop by JIM (at Putrajaya is Level 1) to get all the necessary information and forms.  The officer will explain to you one by one.  It's more tedious than LTSVP.

And good news to all those whose spouses are from China and Africa.  Previously, all the applications you have to go through JIM Putrajaya only.  However, now you can submit online and it can be done at any JIM near you.  

Pro-Tip: On the appointment website, different branches will have different services.  Like I was told that I can choose the sticking of the LTSVP on the passport as one of the services when I make appointment and that is quite fast, rather than make appointment under LTSVP.  But this is only applicable to JIM Shah Alam and not JIM Putrajaya.

Matka pot treatment - Night 1

I started the matka pot treatment last night.  Been feeling a lot of left agnya catch lately, so thought that it is high time to do a matka pot treatment.  Here is what we need: 7 limes (I heard in Belgium, they used 7 lemons, so the pot that they used is so big and they have a hard time trying to dispose the pot after the 7 nights).  Cut the top of the limes to expose a bit of the flesh. 7 chillies.  Remove the top of the chillies (I don't know what you call, stem or stalk).  I used small chillies so that they can fit into the matka pot. 1 matka pot (here in Malaysia we used claypot that they cooked claypot rice, glazed inside so that it will not leak) Vibrated water So, you put everything into the pot and vibrate in front of Shri Mataji's photo.  Pray that the matka pot will absorb all the catches and negativities.  Then place it on the left side of the bed.  I put it under the bed but you can also put it on a side table on ...

Information for pregnant Sahaja Yoginis

I have decided to gather all information for pregnant Sahaja Yoginis here.  This is probably not conclusive, so please feel free to add on if you have anymore inputs.  To read more about it, please go to amruta.org.   I guess the experience varies from individual to individual.  But I was very sensitive to vibrations and negativity when I was in my first trimester.  So much so that sometimes I have to do 2-3 times footsoak in a row in order to feel better.  But it gets better in the second trimester. As for havan, I was told that pregnant ladies can attend havan but have to sit far from the fire and don't sit too long.  This was advice by the Vashi doctors.  But my own experience, in which I attended one havan, I didn't feel good after that.  It's just my personal feelings about it as I was ultra-sensitive.  But I read some yoginis wrote that pregnant ladies should not attend havan altogether.  So, it really depends.  I ...

Sahaja Yogis Do's and Don'ts

The other day, while browsing through Amruta.org, I'd found this gem.  Sharing with you all.   Disclaimer:  As I only took out parts of the talk, please do read the entire text to get the full message and understanding or better still, listen or watch the video. Advice by Shri Mataji at Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan (Question and Answers). Bombay (India), 22 March 1977 1. No smoking and drinking First and foremost things that a Sahaja Yogi cannot smoke or drink. One absolutely one hundred percent sure, because if you drink or smoke you will find after some time you either you’ll lose your vibrations or you’ll start vomiting. You cannot smoke. If you smoke your Vishudhdhi will be caught. If you drink your Nabhi chakra will be caught and whenever you’ll place your hand towards the photograph all the Nabhi chakra will be burning absolutely. So you’ll say, “What is this happening?” And you’ll give up. You sort of, many people have done it without any difficulty. They ...
