^Yep.

You are going to have to do all the paperwork and sponsor her WP.

Go to Immi...they will walk you through the process.聽 If you get all the paperwork done correctly, they should approve it fairly quickly, as well.

Why do I still need to pay for the levy since she is already married to a malaysian? I thought levy is only for those holding work permit in malaysia. She is currently applying for a marriage visa to stay in malaysia.

She can't work on a marriage visa.聽 She would be working on the work permit you are sponsoring.

Her marriage visa allows her to stay in the country, but not work as a foreign, non-resident of Malaysia.

That's why you need to sponsor her work permit.

What does marriage visa mean?

If she is married to a Malaysian she DOES NOT need a wp. She can earn any salary and all she needs to do is take her contract and social visit visa (marriage) to immigration for it to be stamped that she can work with you. This costs you nothing!

That is the law although I know people are told different things. Spouses of malaysians are no longer dealt with by the employment pass section(since 2010)

you have to apply for a "chop" on the visa for "right to work". It is a rubber stamp but you will need the required documents. Letter of employment offer and company licenses+ any service bond from guarantor.
