How to return back to the UAE after getting deported for HIV?
29
Q: Good morning,
We have a company in SHAMS Sharjah,
My business partner, age 29, from India, was here last year in November 2020 to get his partner visa. But unfortunately, he was medically unfit and then got deported after doing all the formalities because of HIV.
But now my business partner is completely fine after taking 6-7 months of treatment and got a clearance certificate from the health authority as well. He is completely fine now and undetectable, which means nontransmittable.
My business partner wants to come back to Dubai because he has invested in the company.
Is it possible for him to get back? If yes, please let me know how to proceed.
He has already stayed in Dubai for 5-6 years. We want to remove his deportation, so he can come back to Dubai.
Best regards,
K. M.

Can I return to the UAE after deportation for HIV and then cured it?

Q: I'm from Romania but I live in Germany. In January 2022 I got a job offer in Dubai and I accepted it.
My sponsor sent me an employment eVisa and he told me that the immigration officer has to put a stamp on it so that we can proceed with the residence visa.
After a few days, I was sent for the medical test and I found out I'm HIV positive. My sponsor had to cancel the whole process and so I got deported. They also scanned my retina.
Now on my visa cancellation after the entry, it's saying that I got a permanent ban due to the unfit medical status. I'm on medication right now and my doctor told me it may take a couple of months until I will be HIV negative.
Can I return to the UAE to work again?
What about as a tourist?
Can I lift the ban?

How can I reach a settlement with the bank for a mortgage of a jointly owned property? 0
I have a jointly owned property in Abu Dhabi. The mortgage was defaulted on as I had to leave the property with my children following an assault by my ex-husband. He left the country in 2018 and never paid the mortgage.
As I was in the country, the bank filed a criminal case against me, and I was sentenced to 3 years. I won the appeal against the bank and then filed another criminal case a few months later in Dubai. Again, I won and paid a fine.
In 2019, the bank started a civil case against me and my ex-husband to have the property repossessed. However, at the time of the purchase of the property, there were no Title Deeds, the bank requires this.
I cannot give them the Title Deeds to sell the property and pay back the amount owed to them as my ex-husband refuses to provide a POA. The bank has filed another criminal case against me only for our jointly owned property.
I wish to resolve this and pay off the bank and receive any money left from the sale. How can I resolve this issue of the Title Deeds?

Can a real estate agency hold a percentage of a property sale until transfer is done? 0
A real estate agency has signed an MOU stating that a 10% security deposit from the buyer and the seller will be kept in the real estate agency and will be released upon transferring the property.
The transfer of the property was blocked due to the court order.
According to my colleagues, the real estate agency is not a trustee and they are not allowed to have taken my security check in the first place, is this correct?
