Q: I need to cancel my wife's visa after she left the house without informing me and filed for divorce, claiming monthly maintenance… A: The husband will need to provide proof of the wife's departure from the house, such as a police report or a letter from the wife stating her intention to leave…

Dear Questioner, According to UAE law, a husband has the right to cancel his wife's visa if she has left the house without informing him and has filed for divorce. However, the cancellation of the visa should be done through the General Directorate of Residency and Foreigners Affairs (GDRFA) in the emirate where the visa was issued. The husband will need to provide proof of the wife's departure from the house, such as a police report or a letter from the wife stating her intention to leave. He will also need to provide a copy of the divorce papers or a letter from the court stating that the wife has filed for divorce. Once the visa is canceled, the wife will have a grace period of 30 days to leave the country. If she fails to do so, she may face legal consequences and may be banned from entering the UAE in the future.

حقوق الزوجة في النفقة والإقامة بعد الطلاق

س: مرحبًا، أنا أعيش في الإمارات مع زوجي. (نحن متزوجان زواج إسلامي). انتقلنا إلى الإمارات للحصول على فرصة عمل له وتبعته، وتخليت عن حياتي المهنية. لقد انفصلنا منذ 4 أشهر ولكننا لا نزال نعيش معًا في غرف منفصلة. كانت الخطة هي محاولة العمل على أنفسنا والمضي قدمًا. عندما انتقلنا إلى الإمارات لأول مرة، كان من الصعب بالنسبة لي أن أجد فرصة في مجال دراستي وعملت في مهنة أخرى. لقد قمت إشعارًا مؤخرًا في عملي لإنقاذ ما تبقى من زواجي. خططت لإيجاد وظيفة أخرى في الأشهر المقبلة. قبل شهرين اكتشفت أن زوجي خانني مع امرأة أخرى. بما أنني مكفولة عليه (الإقامة)، هل لديّ حقوق في الإمارات في حالة الطلاق؟ لكي أتمكن من البقاء والبحث عن وظيفة أخرى أو هل يجب عليه أن يدفع لي نوعًا من النفقة حتى أجد وظيفة أخرى؟

The public prosecution appealed a judgment to increase the fine I already paid. What do I do now?

Good afternoon, Thank you for your time. The public prosecution appealed my judgment (a fine that I satisfactorily cleared) and requested increasing the fine. Can you please explain what happens during a criminal case appeal hearing for me as a defendant? Will I be asked questions? Is the hearing just for the Public Prosecution to present their appeal to the judge, and I do not need to give a response? Thank you again for your time.
