Bermuda’s work permit situation has deteriorated to the point where it has all the hallmarks of a Keystone cops comedy routine, except that it’s not funny.Months and months are passing between the approval of a work permit application and the issue of the permit. In the case of an annual permit, it has become normal, if that is the word, to wait eight or nine months for permission to work. By the time the permit arrives, it is time to reapply for next year’s permission. (Employees may work once the application has been filed, but they may be deported if their application is refused.)
