Dear Friends,

 

We are planning to hire a maid/Nanny to help us with our kid. Our concern is that she don't have any VISA or permit to work. How much is it safe for us to keep her on Job?

Thanks in advance for your valuable suggestions/advise.

 

Regards

Thanks Molten and Mary for your kind advice, I have decided not to go via this route instead have started to contact legal maids with NOC and their own VISA.

It is illegal to do so. You are exposing your home and family to unnecessary risks. You can be fined substantially for employing her. Further, if there were problems, you have no legal recourse because you can't report her to the police without exposing your own illegal actions
