this. most countries have similar policies. been there, seen so many others going through this in UK, USA, Japan, Korea, Singapore. it really damages your life.

to everyone, check other countries (Portugal, Thailand, Japan) that give you residency for years and allow to work remotely

don't let your employer hold you and your family a hostage with your legal status

Unfortunately you can only work here up to 6 months as a digital nomad and it's not residency, it's basically just an extended tourist visa.

Portugal's digital nomad visa seems good but their immigration system is apparently extremely dysfunctional.

Japan last year had HSP visa, which was a good deal (PR in 1 year + no Japanese language requirement). fastest permanent immigration track I ever seen

Hong Kong has good one right now with TTPS

China will be opening new visa track for tech in October, must be interseting to see

That would be nice, but if you want to immigrate, that’s the current deal.
