I'm Asian and married to Emirati national with 4 children. How to get their passports?
I'm Asian and married to Emirati national with 4 children (3 boys and 1 girl).
Due to financial problems, my husband decided to send us to my home country way back in 2011 and now it's already 2023. He never showed up since then with no financial support.
My children are already grown up, the eldest is 22 y/o, the second is 20 y/o, the third is 19 y/o and the last is 14 y/o. Since he left us in my home country, he took all my childrens' passports with him and has no plans to give them back.
What is the best way to get my childrens' passports back from their father since they are holding Emirati national passports, they don't want to lose their citizenship.
We've tried complaining to the embassy but there was no good result. The only advice they gave is to contact the father, but the father always ignores all the calls and messages.
Please send advice, I need help.
Very much appreciated.
Come to the UAE or give someone from your family power of attorney to file a case against him in the UAE courts.
In this case, you can request housing for the children, expenses, education, medicine, as well as passports.

You can make a complaint in the competent Family Guidance Centre in the Father's place of residence, asking for the child’s support and accommodation with the request of the children's documents.
