What are Identity Cards for Foreign Nationals?
Those who apply for student visa extensions from 25th November 2008 onwards will find themselves subject to longer processing times. This is because a new stage is being introduced into the process of issuing a student visa extension. Instead of being issued with an extension in the form of a sticker in their passport, students and their dependants will be issued with an extension in the form of a separate card called an ‘Identity Card for Foreign Nationals’. More information about this can be found on the ISSS website.
