    Default Odd wife sponsored KITAS question

    Bloke I know. Foreign passport has a wife sponsored KITAS valid for many months to come.
    About 10 I believe but could be wrong.
    Wife has been arrested and potentially could end up doing time. Something to do with forging documents related to sale of a property but I have no details.
    I would guess his KITAS would be void in that event but I don't know. Any ideas?

    I wouldn't think so. I believe he won't be notified and if he leaves before it expires the officials at the airport will only see a bonafide visa that he has been in Indonesia on for up to 12 months.

    My thought was that, if his sponsor was behind bars, she would not be valid as she could not take responsibility for him any longer.

    Good point. Maybe there is something on the books regarding that. If the cops don't ask him during their investigation how else could it be known? If there is a law about it and authorites don't know about it for months but then find out would ignorance save him from major problems or would there be a problem for him at all other than having to leave within days?

    If the wife's name was Artalyta Suryani, it wouldn't be an issue, would it...

    Today's 'Globe' reports she has been transferred to another prison, perhaps the views from the 'cells' are more pleasant there....

    He lives in a small town and I know the cops and immigration talk to each other.
    One knows, so does the other. The bright side from his point of view is the locals are friendly to him.

    The other bright point is in such a small community he will more than likely be notified if he needs to get out for another visa so that question won't linger.

    Tricky situation, that I imagine nobody has considered. Best not to ask (kicking a sleeping dog and all that)
