1
Q: I am in the HR of a company in DAFZA. I have an employee who resigned and he said he will freeze his family residency and he will come to sign his cancellation paper and take his end of service cheque, but he simply disappeared.
What should our company do in this scenario? We still did not apply for his cancellation based on his request but we have his resignation paper.
Thanks

How to let my employer cancel my visa at the immigration and take another offer?
2
Q: Dear Sir/ Mam
Pleased be informed you that after 30 days of my resignation letter, the company canceled my visa in labor but they are not canceling my visa in immigration and did not give me my passport back.
I got a job in another company. What should I do?
I called my employer and messaged him to cancel my visa in immigration but they are not responding to me. They just saw my messages and ignored me.
I go once a day to my company to talk about visa cancellation because they are not replying to my messages.
I told them to cancel my visa in immigration because they already canceled my visa in labor on 11/06/2022. They did not respond seriously to my matter.
So kindly guide me on what I should do. I shall be very thankful to you.
Best Regards
M. A.

رفض منح تأشيرة دخول إلى الإمارات لدواعي أمنية 0
السلام عليكم أستاذ محمد.
لقد زرت دبي 3 مرات في 2014 و2016 و2017 بتأشيرة زيارة بدون أي مشاكل.
وعندما قدمت علي تأشيرة زيارة هذا العام، فوجئت بالرفض لأسباب أمنية مع العلم أنه في المرات الثلاث السابقة لم يكن عندي أي مخالفات. وعندما بحثت مع مسؤول العلاقات الحكومية في الشركة، أفادني أن عندي حظر لمدى الحياة.
أرجو الإفادة والحل مع العلم أنه لا يوجد لي أي سوابق أو مشاكل أمنية في مصر أو خارجها.

What you need to know while purchasing a new apartment 0
Hi, I am planning to buy a ready apartment in a 2-year-old building.
How can I check for any dues on that apartment, would NOC suffice that the mortgage or any dues are cleared?
How can I check that the seller does not have court cases against him in relation to property?
How do the Service Charges get decided every year, as I understand that it is decided by Dubai Land Department who has defined the Service Index?
Should I hire a lawyer to look out all legal aspects and help me till I get the property transferred to me? If yes, then what is the average cost for this service?
Regards,
Gufran

Recovering a small debt with a security cheque 0
Dear Sir,
I lent someone money of a small amount, only AED 4000.
Although I trust him and I know he was really in need, he issued blank-dated cheque signed by him and gave it to me as a security to repay me as promised by September last year.
It's been 6 months now, and I am calling this person to repay the money but he is not interested to pay me and not answering my calls and messages.
I know it is a small amount but for me who has a family back in my country, I really need the money for my obligations also. Please advise me what actions I must take to recover my money.
he told me before not to encash the cheque because he already closed the account, but then he is not returning my calls anymore.
How can I recover my money? Can I file a police complaint against him?
