My visa is not yet approved by immigration but I have already signed my offer letter from my new company. It has been 2 months already without any information on my new visa. What could be the reason for the delay in my visa? My visa status is active until 9/04/2023.

Hi, Good day! I have been working in my company for about 1 year and 1 month and I want to resign to go back home to my country. Are there any consequences for that? Any advice, please?

Hello Nicole, Greetings! I have been working in a private company in Dubai for the last 13 years under an unlimited contract. Recently, they have made my position redundant. I am now serving 3 months notice period as per the labour contract (2 months already served, I am now in 3rd and last month). My employer has put me on forced paid leave to adjust my notice period against leave days balance. I need some clarification per below, please. 1. The employer is paying me a full salary for a notice period of 3 months. However based on the recent announcement from the Ministry of Labor (for Private Co. employees), can my employer reduce my salary temporarily/permanently in this last month of notice period? 2. If the answer to question 1 is YES, how will it impact the calculation of my end of service benefits like gratuity or leave balance encashment? Will it be recalculated based on the revised (reduced) salary? 3. Am I eligible to claim any other Termination/redundancy pay apart from gratuity and leave balance encashment?

Hi, I am a first timer here in Dubai. My employer wants to charge me all her expenses incurred during my application; like medical examination, visa, work permit and the money she gave to my agency. What should I do?

I have not paid my credit card dues for 3 months. Banks are threatening that they would submit the cheque. If they submit the cheque, will there be any travel ban or other cases?
