Is it true that I cannot transfer my Visa?

because I haven't finish two years on my previous employer, I just want to be sure so I can urge the HR people on my ex company to make me some form of a letter authorizing me to work to another company.

That is the best answer, and you read my question correctly..tallg...the revised sponsorship law.

The answer is: NO. It is not true. You can transfer your sponsorship before you finish 2 years (or even 1 year), but with one condition: you need to have NOC. Since you say the Company is giving it to, it shouldn’t be any problem to transfer the sponsorship.

my x company will give me NOC, no Problem there, what I am asking is if the news I got is true regarding the less 2 years thing on the new law.

If you are being terminated , you can request for an NOC from them ( As suggested by MagicDragon )

But if you are leaving your own, ( resigning ), then they can always refuse to give one.

Maybe begging on your knees will help, spike.

Yes, you may ask even if you have not completed 2 years. But the NOC is solely at the discretion of your previous employer.

You can ask them for a No Objection Certificate (NOC).
