This is important given the cyclical nature of our economy wherein the tourism high you may work in the industry as a bartender, masseuse, or Taxi Driver and in the low season, you can be something else thus ensuring you always have work within the TCI.

PILLAR 6:
Enforcement of Placement in Private School of Work Permit Endorsed Children
The Immigration policy is very clear, that all children that are endorsed on their parents work permits have to be placed in a private educational institution, for an endorsement to be granted proof of enrollment is required. If we allow this illegal practice
to continue the people of the TCI and the public purse will continually be at a loss. Reason being, if a work permit fee is $2,500 a year
but a child’s education is valued at
$5,000 a year then we are on the
losing end of that transaction. We
have to implement a spot check
system, whereby checks are made
by independent persons to verify
that the schools the children are
registered in, they are still enrolled. If they are not, the endorsement and or work permit would be subject to cancellation if the child was not relocated to another private institution.
