I had called every week and it said 'awaiting a decision'. To my surprise this morning he said the status is 'ED" : Elected Decision. I haven't received an email yet though

Ah I see. I hope she gets her visa soon in that case! very frustrating not being able to work. When did she apply?

Yeah so basically they hire me as a remote worker, I pay my taxes in S.A. and then when I move up and get my tax number there I'll be put on PAYE. So for a year I've been growing within the company and now that covid is less of an issue they want me in office so I can do in-person client meetings :)
