Dear Customer,                             

Thanks for joining and trusting us, much appreciated!

We would like to inform you that the below points:

First, forcing the employer to renew the visa, it is known that if the work contract finished then you can’t force the employer to renew the visa unless the contract is renewed. You can go to the labor office and file a complaint against the employer.

Second, filing a complaint against the employer will prevents him from filing an absconding report, and that will prevent him from taking any arbitrary action against you. so if he refused to renew to hurt you, then you can file a complaint against him.
