CPR Renewal Online

Padmarajan

Hi,

My CPR is expired. Recently I have update my address to My brother's Address online through my company. Currently my dependent address is also in that Address.

I tried to log in to bahrain.bh and the address is also updated in the system. And I have the option to Renew my CPR by paying 10 BD.

"My HR is saying that I will not be able to apply online as I'm not having a EWA with my name. Address issue will come."

Is this right or I can apply online?

They are right.  You can try applying online but in the majority of the cases, it will not go through.

If you are renting or living with someone; that requires you to provide a municipality letter or NOC to the CPR office (Forget the online update in EMS - you need to provide physical proof to update chip i.e. letter).  This letter is time bound i.e. valid for one month.  So at any given time, you won't be able to renew online unless the letter has been provided within the validity timeline.

An EWA bill in your name doesn't require any physical proof as the EWA account and CPR systems are linked - they can just verify it in a second online.  Hence renewal goes through easily online.

Thanks for the Info.

Hi,

In Bahrain.bh, my address is updated and showing as current address. Currently my CPR is expired and i want to renew it.

During CPR appointment of my wife my flat owner was present (Acknowledgement signed) and her CPR is updated with the same address.

Still i will not be able to renew online?

How long it will take to deliver the CPR if we renew online?

Read what I wrote. Your question is already answered. Don't keep asking the same question again and again from different angles - your wife cpr and your cpr are different, don't confuse yourself. Each cpr has to go through same process on its own.

yes you need a ewa bill.also if you have a different address on lmra system you will need to change that as well  so lmra and cpr is the same.your hr knows hiw to get the new cpr.but you will have to get an appointment if you have change your address and that us the issue as well for example we have been waiting for an appointment for 8 weeks now .as we had different lmra address and cpr address lmra wad done by the company but we have to take the agreement in to isa town cpr center

If you only have a rental agreement and no EWA bill, they won't change address so don't waste your time.  Take your agreement to the municipality office and get a letter from them.  That letter is what the Isa town office will accept (if you don't have EWA in your name).

hi fid that and it was rejected as the kandlord had issue.in the end i moved apoartment so i could get a ewa bill but i had two different address  and cor is only by appointments onlt as they need to see the contract and ewa agreement but since cd 19 is here no pro is going to isa town and no appoitments

XTang

Yep that's the problem.

nigel beattie

any idea how we can get a apoointment i done calling .egov etc etc

They are not entertaining calls.  You can try filing a complaint on Tawasul saying that you are not getting an appointment and its urgent that you get your CPR done - usually they are very responsive to Tawasul complaints.

The photo is at the very beginning of the fields when you start filling it out - a box where you have to click in it to attach.

Hi i am an expat and i have an expired housewife visa I am married to a bahraini husband for more than a decade but still i need to renew my visa every 2yrs unforetunately we are having a divorce case and children custody battle in court. He doesn't want to renew nor cancel my visa it leave me in hanging the reason i lose my job as my visa expired and now my CPR is going to expire and the court case still in progress.

I dont know what I need to do to secure my residency and its too difficult to get a job.

What do i need to do to my visa and my CPR?

I keep calling NPRA but their are not answering and giving me a solution.

This is very complicated.  You have to tell your lawyer to bring it up in court i.e. husband making it difficult for you because you filed a case and court needs to intervene.  Other then that, there is work or investment based visas.
