Obtaining residence visa as a property owner in the UAE
10
Q: Good morning,
I am looking to possibly hire a lawyer for a number of tasks. I live in Saudi Arabia but my husband wants to give me POA for his apartment in Dubai as we need to complete registration papers for same.
Also, we need to draw up wills to pass on our properties in Dubai to our kids. Oh, I am Irish and my husband is Saudi, also I am seeking advice re rental contract for my tenant, if possible obtaining 6 months only.
We plan to move to Dubai summer 2018. How do I obtain Residence visa as a home owner? I believe our kids can stay there without visa as per GCC.
Sorry for all this, that is why I think we need to hire services as opposed to advice.
Hoping that you can assist us or direct us.
Many thanks in advance,
Ann

Can I change my current visa to the 10-year golden visa if I own a property?

2
Q: Hello,
For one year I have had a 5-year visa (I have to be in the UAE every 180 days) under the old visa rules as I bought a property for AED 11,000,000 last year.
Can I change my current visa to the 10-year golden visa (which lets you be absent from the UAE for longer than 180 consecutive days)?
Because the new rules state that the property has to be AED 2,000,000 for the golden visa.

View allClaiming refund for delay in property handover after full payment 0
I have bought three apartments in a project and the delivery date was in 2018. I have paid 100% and nothing is pending.
The builders informed me that the delivery will be in July 2019 but now they are saying the end of Dec for one apartment and the rest in 2020.
If I want to withdraw and cancel the contract, can I get the complete refund and will I receive the interest too?

Filing a case against the developer for cancellation of project 0
I bought a property in a project and paid the full amount to the developer directly, not in the escrow account.
The property was not complete as promised and it was cancelled by the Land Dept last year.
We reached the Land Dept to make a complaint then we came to know it's not registered under my name.
Please help me to process it and get my money back. I made a complaint in Dubai Courts too but no update.

View allApplication to release the passport from court to renew visa 0
Sir,
Someone took a SIM on my Emirates ID and took money (AED 9000) from another person and there's a case is on me as the ID was mine, but I did not do this.
My visa is expiring in January. Is there any procedure where the police can give me the passport to renew my visa?
I had not done this fraud, what should be on my name.

Termination for non-performance without prior warnings 0
Hi!
I would like to ask for advice.
The company has terminated me last June 30, 2019. My work is a visual merchandiser and we have 16 stores across the UAE which I need to visit all in one month.
But last April and May, I have not visited some of the shops due to other important and urgent work.
The company suddenly send me a termination letter due to non-performance which I am really shocked because I didn't understand that they put non-performance if I am doing other important and urgent projects.
There is no warning letter given to me. Since I'm getting pressure from the HR, I had signed the termination letter and it was effective June 30, 2019.
But after 3 or 4 days, the company asked me to come to work for 1 month notice period July 1-31. Then they ask me to work again in August, and then until September 15. Then they terminated me.
I need your advice if there's a chance that I could complain about this to the labour and the chances of getting the correct compensation.
Thanks

Claiming the labor dues from an employer applying for liquidation 0
Hello,
Can I please request an expert view on the below issue and possible further guidance?
I would like to know if employees have filed labor complaints due to outstanding salaries, then:
1. If the employer does not give immediate cash settlement or agrees to provide personal PDCs to cover outstanding salaries&gratuities in a complaint of the labor dept., then how long process may last if it is escalated to labor court? And are the employees to continue work or stop?
2. Can employees switch visas if the issue is in labor court?
3. Can the company which is an LLC still proceed to apply for liquidation?
4. If they can, then how can salaries&gratuities be protected for the employees?
5. Should employees engage a lawyer to represent them against the owners of the company who decide to go into liquidation?
Thanks!
