F00040 Special Immigration Request

Instructions:

Welcome to the World Bank Group HR Forms Instructions page.

This form filler tool is designed to assist you in electronically entering your data and printing a paper form with a unique barcode corresponding to your entered data. Once you've completed your answers and printed the form, you'll need to submit it either by email or in person, depending on the form type.  Please note that the data you enter is directly captured in the form's unique barcode, so it's important that you do not make any handwritten changes, corrections, or additions to the data or to the form after it has been printed. Doing so may result in data errors and processing delays.

In case you notice any errors after printing your form, or if you've left a field blank, we recommend starting over and completing a new form. It's also important to remember that your information is not saved by the form filler and can no longer be accessed after you print it. Therefore, please be extra careful in reviewing your answers, as it is impossible to make any corrections after the form is printed.

Each form will take approximately ten minutes to complete. Please ensure you have the needed documents such as passport to extract information that may be required in some fields. Do not close the forms until they are ready for a download. Partially filled forms cannot be saved to be completed later. If you need further assistance, please contact. Thank you!
