The my2home application has 2 parts.
The first part is for
Conditional Approval. This is made at the Ministry of Tourism's One-Stop Centre at the World Trade Centre building in Kuala Lumpur.
You can hand deliver, or send by post. This application consists of:
1). A Covering Letter
2). 2 copies of Social Visit Pass Application Form (Form IM12), together with 2 copies of passport-sized photos.
3). Certified copy of pages of the applicant's passports. If the current passport is less than 1 year old, then certified copies of every page of the previous passport is required.
4). Certified copy of Marriage Certificate (if applicable).
5). Certified copy of each Child's Birth Certificate (if applicable).
6). Certified copies of financial proof of Sufficient Funds.
7). Certified copies of proof of Pension (if applicable).
8). Details of applicants' Employment/Business record over the past few years.
Once this is received by the Ministry of Tourism it will be photocopied for their records, and the original sent through to Ministry of Immigration. A reference number will be sent to the applicant.
After between 12 and 20 weeks, applicants will be sent a letter of approval/rejection. If it's rejection then you appeal, if you want to. Most letters are Approvals. The conditional approval letter starts the second part of the process.
This second part of the process is
Visa Collection. Applicants are required to be in Malaysia within 6 months of the date of the Conditional Letter of Approval to fulfill the following:
1). Opening the Fixed Deposit account in any Bank in Malaysia. Certified copies of the
FD are needed, and you have to take along these copies plus the originals to Immigration.
2). Getting the Medical Examination. The doctor can sign the form. Give the original to Immigration and keep a copy for yourself.
3). Purchasing Medical Insurance. A certified copy of the Insurance Policy is required by Immigration. If the applicant has an international insurance policy that is acceptable in Malaysia, it is not necessary to purchase a new policy.
Get the above together and go along to Immigration at the new HQ in Putrajaya. Your passports will have the visa stuck in, the length of the 10-year visa being whatever validity the passport has left (passport expires in 3 years - you'll get a 3 year visa. When the passport finally expires you go along with the new passport and get the remaining 7 years).
You pay a visa fee of RM90 per year for the number of years given. You pay this in cash at the Immigration Cashier's counter. Also for citizens from non Commonwealth countries there's an odd thing called "Journey Performed Visa Fee" of RM500.
