Housemaid's Visa for the same Nationality

Hi

We are Filipino and they said immigration will not allow housemaids visa for the same nationality. I heard that some got an approval from immigration with the same nationality. Is there anybody who can help me to work this out in immigration? If I will apply Indonesian first then ask the agency to give me Filipino would it be possible?

I know some who did the same then they spoke to any immigration officer and their request was granted. I don't want someone will sponsor my maid. In the first place they charged  four times of the cost which is around 7k. Cost of visa for expat is only 1800 . Is there anyone who tried this? Anyways in every rule there's an exception

No it is not possible. The only loophole you use someone else to sponsor the maid on the paperwork,and it is not 100 percents legal either.
