What I meant by my case being different is that most people here ask if they can have their RP/visa cancelled while being placed on permanent positions and join another company. As mine EXPIRE and I'm on a fixed-term contract doesn't this make the case any different? I really don't get this part with the NOC when you are on a fixed-term contract. You are telling me that if you come here for some 3 months contract with a company you can't do another one with another company in less than 2 years without NOC? I highly doubt this, it's totally illogical and stupid.
