And with both of these life aspect located in one roof, you will need to develop a new set of rules and disciplines.

You may need to prioritize between work and family now. And sometimes, there are days when you have the need to answer all your e-mails first before your laundry or other days, you may feel the need to do your laundry first before working on your e-mails.

In order to work productively, consider the following advise when you are setting up your home office and find a space in your home to make it a place where you can work effectively.

Rule #1 – When organizing your home office, find a place where it is brightly lit such as buying overhead lightings and floor lamp. The wall of your office is important at creating an ambiance too. Choose colors which are not too dull or dark because it will affect the productivity of your work. Also, keep the room from getting stuffy by providing proper ventilation.

Rule #2 – Keep your home office or rather yourself far away from any possible distraction like having your TV right in front of you or have music playing at the background. Even noise from your kids screaming or whining can cause you to get distracted from your work. To avoid this, work out a time management schedule and plan out your day so that you can allocate adequate time for you and your family.

Rule #3 –Organize your home office supplies in a way that promotes your efficiency. Estimate how many pens and how many stacks of A4 paper you need every time you go shopping for your stationery. Because if you don't do that, the fuel you are paying to drive to the mall would be more expensive than your office equipment. keep the supplies you don't need in a cupboard or drawer. Be as neat as possible. Stuff you use daily should be on your desk but stuff that you hardly use should be kept away. Just don't clutter your table because it all adds up to an unsightly and distracting mess that could affect your work.

Rule #4 – Clear out all the old clutter in your home office. Make sure you have enough room for all your requirements and try to maximize the layout of your home office space with the goal of promoting efficiency of operations. Be as neat as possible when organizing your home office. For example, remove stacks of paper next to your fax machine that could eventually block and jam incoming documents. It is always difficult to work in a place filled with stuff irrelevant to your business. However, if you cannot remove these things from the room, make sure that you move them out of your vision. Tidiness of your home office can help improves your productivity.

Rule #5 – The best is to have an ideal designated working area where you can work everyday. You wouldn't want to have work in your kitchen today, and living room the next. A proper workspace helps to tell your mind that this is a place to work. And thus making you a successful work at home mum.

What happens if the passport expires while it is with the home office for an extension of visa ?

I was wondering what happens if the passport expires while it is with the home office for an extension of visa . And Home office has already taken ages to extend the visa. It is really hard to get any answer over fax or phone as they can provide no information about the application.

if they will grant you extension, they won't stamp the visa in your passport as it is expired. 2 of my friends received their stamp in an A4 size paper, then you can have it transfer in your new passport but it cost much! if you don't want to have it transfer, it's alright!
