My Sri Lankan Passport expires on March 2011. According to rules I need to get a new passport and it will take more than 2 months. Meantime, can I get a one year work visa with the current passport.

jomans, this is part of what i do so i know what im talking about. even if ur passport expires and u r in the country still there is no problem in not renewing it same date..but if u do renew it in march 2011, they attach ur new passport with the old passport holding ur current visa..then in june ur visa expires so they renew and stamp the visa on ur renewed passport :)

Jomans, get yourself a new passport in time and transfer your visa to new passport...simple.

If I get a one year work visa, it will be upto next June.

(June 2010 to June 2011). If my passport expires on March 2011 how it is possible to chop the visa immediately.
