  "description": "Papua New Guinea's Immigration and Citizenship Authority's (ICA) \"Application to Extend Entry Permit\" — a follow-on/renewal action filed by a non-citizen already in-country on a valid entry permit who wishes to extend their authorised stay, distinct from this registry's sibling pg/ica/entry-permit-application (a first-entry visa application) and pg/ica/passport-application (an ICA travel-document/passport application). GOV-5812's own screening cycle banked this document alongside the first-entry candidate without authoring either; GOV-5819 authored the richer first-entry form to open the Visa vertical, leaving this extension form as disclosed backlog. Models the applicant's personal particulars, marital status, nationality, and passport particulars; the requested extension length and stated reason; the existing entry permit's own particulars (number, type, class, expiry, dates and place of issue, and date of last entry into PNG); the applicant's in-PNG address and contact/email-communication preference; the alternate stay-funding-source checklist; the organisational sponsor/employer block; previous-name/alias and other-passport history; the criminal-conviction and deportation/refused-entry screening questions; and the closing Declaration, including this specimen's own genuine PDF signature (/FT /Sig) field. Companion schema for Papua New Guinea's Visa vertical (3 of 6 verticals open, alongside Business Formation via pg/ipa/business-name-registration, Passport via pg/ica/passport-application, and first-entry Visa via pg/ica/entry-permit-application); does not itself open a new vertical. This document does not file the application itself; the live source is always authoritative. See VERIFICATION.md for the full sourcing record and every disclosed scoping decision.

    "notes": "GOV-5826 (\"GovSchema Standard Research\"). GOV-5812's own cycle screened Papua New Guinea's Visa vertical and banked two live, unauthenticated, genuinely rich AcroForm candidates without authoring either: this document's own source (the ICA's own \"Application to Extend Entry Permit\", 123,043 bytes, confirmed 62 widgets across 2 pages — a follow-on/renewal action for someone already in-country) and a richer 102-widget first-entry \"Application for entry permit\" mirrored by the PNG-Japan Society. GOV-5819 authored the richer first-entry candidate, opening the Visa vertical outright as pg/ica/entry-permit-application, and explicitly left this document as unauthored backlog for a future cycle. This cycle authors it as a companion schema, deepening (not opening) Papua New Guinea's Visa vertical.\n\nIndependently re-fetched https://ica.gov.pg/uploads/media/post_file_2430587-visa-extension-form-new-savable.pdf directly via plain curl, twice, to confirm reproducibility: HTTP 200, 123,043 bytes both times (exactly matching the byte count GOV-5812's own banked estimate recorded), sha256 884af8c3b170acf103604899c2dc506189956e2d7d06bd05ec9255496e3c2e1d both times, byte-identical (cmp confirmed). No login, CAPTCHA, or WAF/JS-challenge gate — served directly (content-type: application/pdf) behind a Cloudflare edge cache (cf-cache-status: HIT, age: 145811 seconds at fetch time). Last-Modified: Wed, 30 Oct 2019, a long-standing, stable specimen, not a recent upload. Unlike GOV-5819's own first-entry specimen (served only from a third-party png.or.jp mirror, with the direct ica.gov.pg/immigration.gov.pg path 404ing), this specimen is served directly from ica.gov.pg itself under its own /uploads/media/ path — no mirror needed. This cycle reuses the existing registry/pg/ica/ authority directory and the existing pg/ica/passport-application and pg/ica/entry-permit-application authority block verbatim (name \"Immigration and Citizenship Authority\", abbreviation \"ICA\", url ica.gov.pg); see pg/ica/entry-permit-application's own VERIFICATION.md for the full disclosed authority-naming discussion (this specimen's own page-1 letterhead likewise reads \"PNG Immigration & Citizenship Service Authority\", the same older/alternate name already reconciled there), not re-litigated here.\n\n**Extraction method.** Extracted with pdfjs-dist (vendored install at /tmp/mn-passport/extract/node_modules/pdfjs-dist, CommonJS legacy build): a full getAnnotations() pass per page enumerated every AcroForm Widget (62 total across 2 pages — page 1: 25; page 2: 37), recording each widget's internal field name, PDF field type (Tx/Btn/Ch/Sig), rect (bounding box) position, and (for Btn widgets) checkBox/radioButton flags and exportValue, and (for Ch widgets) the options array; then a getTextContent() pass per page, sorted by descending y then ascending x, to recover reading order. The page-1 \"Days:/Months/Years\" requested-extension-length row and the page-2 DECLARATION paragraph were each independently re-checked with a raw per-glyph x/y re-extraction (narrower y-band, no text joining) to positively confirm reading order before transcribing text into this schema's own field descriptions/documents statement — both confirmed internally consistent (no line-joining/sort-order artifact), unlike this registry's own sibling pg/ica/entry-permit-application, whose DECLARATION paragraph carried a genuine source-specimen typo (\"...true and correct at I have disclosed...\"); this specimen's own DECLARATION paragraph carries no equivalent defect (\"...true and correct, and that I have disclosed...\", confirmed clean by the same per-glyph method). canvas was not available in this environment (checked /tmp/node_modules and every node_modules tree reachable from the working directory; only pdfjs-dist itself was found), so no page was rendered to a PNG; every field mapping was instead confirmed via rect-position/text-position cross-checking, consistent with this registry's established practice — no residual ambiguity required canvas rendering here.\n\n**No printed required/optional signal of any kind exists anywhere on this specimen** (no asterisk, no \"(required)\"/\"(optional)\" caption, confirmed by a full page-by-page text-layer read) — the same constraint pg/ica/passport-application, pg/ica/entry-permit-application, and cd/maeci/visa-application each faced. This schema follows the same policy those three adopted: required only the fields necessary to identify the applicant and the substance of the extension request (full name, date of birth, sex, marital status, nationality, country of birth, passport particulars, the stated reason for extension, every field in the EXISTING ENTRY PERMIT DETAILS block — since an extension application cannot be processed without identifying which permit is being extended, and every one of these fields is a direct transcription off that existing, already-issued permit — the primary in-PNG address line, the Declaration's date and signature, and the two background-screening yes/no questions, since these gate their own conditional detail fields and are the form's own substantive screening questions), and bare-optional for secondary address/phone detail, the stay-funding checklist, and the sponsor block's own secondary contact fields, with every genuinely conditional block gated by requiredWhen wherever the form's own layout or prose states a real conditional relationship.\n\nDisclosed scoping decisions:\n\n1. **This specimen's own \"Signature\" widget is a genuine PDF /FT /Sig field, not a text field or an image-insertion pushbutton.** getAnnotations() reports fieldType: \"Sig\" for this widget (page 2, beside \"Signature of Applicant, Parent or Guardian\"), distinct from every other widget on the form (all \"Tx\", \"Btn\", or \"Ch\") and distinct from pg/ica/entry-permit-application's own two image-insertion pushbutton (Btn, pushButton:true) widgets. Consistent with this registry's established convention for a genuine /FT /Sig field (see tz/immigration/visa-application's own declarationCertification precedent), it is modelled as the applicantDeclaration documents[] entry (category attestation), not a fields[] entry of type file or string.\n\n2. **No photograph widget or box of any kind exists anywhere on this specimen** — a genuine content difference from both pg/ica/passport-application (which requires a photograph per its own printed Instruction 9) and pg/ica/entry-permit-application (which carries a real photograph-insertion pushbutton widget); confirmed by a full page-by-page text-layer and widget-list read finding no \"photograph\"/\"photo\" text or matching widget. No photograph field is modelled for that reason.\n\n3. **Instruction 1 states \"Where the application is in respect of a child under 16 years of age, both parents must sign the application\", but only one Signature widget exists on the entire specimen** — the same genuine content gap pg/ica/entry-permit-application's own VERIFICATION.md discloses for its own, structurally distinct, two-image-widget case. Disclosed rather than invented; applicantDeclaration models the one signature capture point that exists.\n\n4. **Two directly-supplied boolean gates without a backing widget of their own** — hasChangedNameOrAlias and hasOtherPassport — split the same combined page-2 prose sentence pg/ica/entry-permit-application's own VERIFICATION.md discloses (\"If you have ever change your name, are known by an alias, or own another passport, please provide details:\"), preceding the same two visually distinct subsections (PREVIOUS NAMES/ALIAS DETAILS: and OTHER PASSPORTS:) on this specimen. Modelled with the same field names and same split-gate rationale as the sibling schema, for cross-schema consistency.\n\n5. **hasOrganisationalSponsor is a third directly-supplied gate for the ORGANISATIONAL SPONSOR/EMPLOYER block**, which this specimen's own printed heading marks \"(IF APPLICABLE)\" — an explicit textual conditional signal, stronger than pg/ica/entry-permit-application's own inferred-only equivalent (that sibling's own heading carries no \"(if applicable)\" qualifier). organisationalSponsorName and sponsorLotAndSectionNo (this specimen's own PNG-convention street-address-equivalent field, printed as a single combined text box) are gated required when true; sponsorAgentName, sponsorTownVillage, sponsorProvince, sponsorPostalAddress, sponsorTelephone, and sponsorEmail remain bare-optional even within a true branch, consistent with this registry's policy of not over-requiring secondary contact detail absent its own printed signal. Unlike the sibling entry-permit-application's own sponsor block, this specimen's sponsor block carries no separate country field.\n\n6. **The four \"how will you be funding your stay in PNG\" checkboxes (fundedBySalary/fundedByOwnFunds/fundedByCompanySponsor/fundedByFamily) are left entirely ungated (bare-optional, no requiredWhen)**, for the identical reason pg/ica/entry-permit-application's own VERIFICATION.md discloses for its own equivalent checklist: independent, mutually non-exclusive checkboxes with no \"tick one\"/\"at least one\" instruction, and this spec's requiredWhen grammar cannot express an \"at least one of these four\" constraint without overreaching what the form itself states.\n\n7. **previousSex and previousMaritalStatus are genuine Ch (combo-box) dropdown widgets**, each with a blank first option (exportValue \" \") followed by the real choices (F/M for sex; Married/Never married/Divorced/De-facto/Widowed for marital status) — the blank option is not modelled as a valid enum value, and both enums are normalised to the same MALE/FEMALE and MARRIED/NEVER_MARRIED/DIVORCED/DE_FACTO/WIDOWED vocabulary already established by pg/ica/entry-permit-application's own equivalent fields, for cross-schema consistency, rather than preserving the dropdown's own raw single-letter/differently-cased export values verbatim.\n\n8. **The requested-extension-length row (\"Days:\"/\"Months\"/\"Years\" boxes, page 1) sits between its own printed unit labels (y=308.88) and its own caption \"How long do you wish to stay in PNG:\" (y=290.76, printed below the boxes as a caption rather than above as a heading)** — confirmed by a raw per-glyph x/y re-extraction of that row, ruling out any reading-order ambiguity before modelling requestedExtensionDays/Months/Years as three alternative unit boxes joined by \"or\", mirroring pg/ica/entry-permit-application's own identical requestedStayDays/Months/Years pattern.\n\n9. **This specimen's own EXISTING ENTRY PERMIT DETAILS block has no equivalent on pg/ica/entry-permit-application (a first-entry application, with no existing permit to reference)** — entryPermitNumber, entryPermitExpiryDate, dateOfLastEntryIntoPNG, entryPermitType, entryPermitClass, entryPermitIssueDate, and entryPermitPlaceOfIssue are unique to this extension schema, each a direct transcription off the applicant's own already-issued entry permit, and all required per this document's own required-fields policy (paragraph above).\n\n10. **Instruction 3 states \"The completed form and the applicant's passport should be sent to: The Chief Migration Officer, Immigration and Citizenship Service Authority, PO Box 1790, BOROKO NCD, Papua New Guinea\"**, the same wording pg/ica/entry-permit-application's own VERIFICATION.md quotes for its own applicantPassport documents[] entry — modelled identically here (physical passport accompanies the submitted form, distinct from the passportNumber/passportExpiryDate fields[] entries that model the printed particulars).\n\n11. **No application fee of any kind is printed anywhere on this specimen**, confirmed by a full page-by-page text-layer read for \"fee\"/currency-amount mentions finding none — no documents[] payment entry is modelled.\n\n12. **Office-use fields (Date Received/BY/File No./Group/Receipt/ICD Clear/BMS Registered on/Decision/Applicant Notified on, page 1 instruction box) carry no AcroForm widgets of any kind**, confirmed by cross-checking every one of these printed labels against the full 62-widget getAnnotations() list finding no match — excluded in full, consistent with this registry's standard office-use-section treatment.\n\n**Structure.** Models 56 fields[] across 10 steps (3 of the 56 — hasChangedNameOrAlias, hasOtherPassport, hasOrganisationalSponsor — are directly-supplied gates without a backing widget; the other 53 collapse this specimen's own 61 non-signature AcroForm widgets, since 13 widgets across 5 checkbox-group/pair collapses — sex [2→1], maritalStatus [5→1], agreeToEmailContact [2→1], hasCriminalConviction [2→1], hasBeenDeportedOrRefusedEntry [2→1] — each collapse into one enum/boolean field; the 62nd widget, the genuine /FT /Sig Signature field, is modelled as the applicantDeclaration documents[] entry, not a fields[] entry), 2 documents[] entries (the applicant's own physical passport, and the Declaration attestation carrying the genuine Sig-field signature capture point), and no crossFieldValidation rules (this specimen's own passport-particulars block carries only passportNumber and passportExpiryDate, with no separate passportIssueDate to compare against, unlike pg/ica/entry-permit-application's own passportExpiryNotBeforeIssue rule).\n\n2 valid mock scenarios — valid-extension-minimal-no-conditional-history (a minimal applicant exercising the false/absent branch of every one of this schema's 5 conditional gates) and valid-extension-full-conditional-history (an applicant exercising the true branch of all 5 conditional gates simultaneously, including the full organisational-sponsor, previous-name/alias, other-passport, criminal-conviction, and deportation blocks) — plus 14 mutation-control fixtures (7 missing-required fixtures spanning a string, a date, an enum, and a boolean/gate field across different steps; 5 missing-requiredWhen fixtures, one per conditional branch; an invalid-enum-value fixture against maritalStatus; and an unknown-field-rejected fixture) are committed under conformance/pg/ica/entry-permit-extension-application/1.0.0/. An ephemeral, from-scratch conformance checker (deriving required/requiredWhen rules directly from this schema's own fields[], discarded after use, not committed) ran all 16 fixtures: both valid scenarios at 0 errors, all 14 mutation controls each raising exactly 1 error. Validated clean with node tools/validate.mjs and node tools/validate-ajv.mjs, individually and as part of the full registry run.\n\nThis schema is a companion to pg/ica/entry-permit-application, deepening (not opening) Papua New Guinea's Visa vertical (still 3 of 6). DMV and Taxes remain confirmed dead ends per GOV-5812's own screening; National ID and the sibling IPA Form A-2 remain open, unauthored backlog for a future cycle."
