i was just wondering if you have any idea regarding filipina domestic helper in hongkong that overstayed... what will happen to them if they get caught by a police... pls i need any legal advice... my friend is missing and its been 3 weeks now. and i believe that for the last 7 days she never had a visa or ang employment visa. so she basically overstayed for the last 7 years. we dont have any idea how we can see or find her. we've tried to visit the philippine embassy but they dont have any records or they havent received a call from any hogkong jail... please i desperately need your help guys.... thanks

I think you need to inform the police if your friend is missing without any contact, she may have come to some harm or be ill, are you sure she hasn't just gone back to the Philippines, is there a way you can find out if she is already there?

thanks susie
we've tried to contact her parents and shes definitely not in the philippines... we cannot just go directly to the police because we're not certain if she was caught or she was just hiding.

Technically she is a missing person, and may be ill, this should be reported to some authority, usually the police.
If she has just 'gone into hiding', the longer she stays in HK the worse trouble she will be in, if anybody does contact her they should advise her to go home, or go to immigration.
Please support our advertisers:
Any overstayer irrespective of nationality will be held by police, case studied, and most of the time will be deported, and not allowed to enter to HK for a period of time.
A 7-year overstay will merit harsh action. Jail time, deportation, and most probably permanent barring of entry.

thanks punter,
i just have a question for you. If in case she got caught by police and took her to jail and get deported, will there be a chance for her to go back to hongkong?
Please support our advertisers:
Only the immigration department knows for sure.
Usually long staying overstayers will be permanently barred from entering again. That's the same for those who committed serious crimes.
