Was it on your work laptop for a reason? Good reminder, never mix work and personal. Or at the very least maybe use a cloud service or a thumb drive.

  In many countries, a number of visas are employer bound or sponsored, so there's a wide array of reasons why some relevant documents might live in the corporate sphere. Depending on policy, you might not be allowed to transfer it to a personal device. There are often many more documents to a visa than just the visa itself.

    > Depending on policy, you might not be allowed to transfer it to a personal device. That's true, but it makes it all the more reason that you want to get that squared off ASAP while you have infinite access to HR/a manager to help you rather than scrambling to try and do it while the clock is ticking on access to your machine/the building etc.

    Even if it was a sponsorship, I find it strange that you can’t have copies of the immigration docs so that you can at least explain to immigration what’s going on. I’d imagine there is case number or something that you could keep? Otherwise what happens? You can’t even explain or prove your current situation? Seems draconian.
