I wonder why you are telling me all this now, i make it clear to you right from the start that the embassy will request for the placement fee immediate all your document is been submitted i guess you never took it as a serious matter, any way if you know you cant come up with the placement fee soon is better i stop the processing of your working visa because you already having some doubt about the offer and more, i don't want to waist my money and at the end you back out.. thanks for your understanding also.
