I start in 2 weeks but I haven't received work visa appointment details yet. Will that affect my start date?

    In that case as your start date will be in September, you will be contacted shortly regarding your work visa appointment, do not worry as there is time and our team will contact you as soon as possible.

    My start date is 4th July. Will it defer my start date by any chance?

    In your opinion, In such case (say for example we only get our visa on 11th July), would you recommend we still join and go through the training by ourselves or join the next cohort in September?
