This is an illustrative scenario: the people and details are for explanation only and are not a real client case. Every family’s outcome depends on its background and the policies in force at the time.

Background

Ms Chen (pseudonym), Taipei, 24. She graduated from a listed university with less than three years of work experience.

Main concern

She worried the Category C quota would run out.

Our approach

We confirmed her university and graduation year were eligible and filed her Category C application early.

Process and outcome

She was approved in about four weeks and now works at a financial institution in Hong Kong.

Adviser’s comment

Category C has a quota — apply early if you qualify.

TTPS application process

  1. Category assessment (1 week): We confirm your category and the documents needed.
  2. Prepare and submit (1–3 weeks): Gather your degree, income or employment evidence and apply online.
  3. Processing (Usually about four weeks): The Immigration Department processes the application.
  4. Arrival and extensions (Per your visa period): After arriving, apply for extensions when the conditions are met.
