Dependent's via cancellation while being abroad
6
Q: Hello,
My husband and I left Dubai in April during the COVID-19 pandemic.
We are now permanently in our home country in the UK. My husband is my sponsor. My husband's visa expires middle of October.
My husband's company needs to cancel his visa (he left the company amicably), but they say that they cannot cancel it until my husband cancels my visa, however - we are out of the country.
180 days fall a few days after the official expiration of my husband's visa. What should we do?

How to transfer son's sponsorship while ex-wife refuses to hand over her Emirates ID?


1
Q: Dear Sir/Madam,
I am a French national who divorced my Dutch wife in Dubai under Dubai law. We have been divorced for 7 years and have a 15-year-old son. Until recently (December 2022), our son was under my ex-wife's sponsorship.
However, her visa expired in December last year and she has not renewed it. As a result, both our son and my ex-wife have been overstaying for the past 6 months.
I have informed her that I can and should sponsor our son, as I am the legal guardian and the legitimate father.
However, she has not been willing to hand over her Emirates ID so that I can transfer the sponsorship and apply for visa renewal and health insurance.
I simply need to be able to transfer the sponsorship of the expired visa in order to process the residency visa renewal for my son, who needs to be registered for the next school year and needs health insurance as he is currently not covered and is on overstay.

Can I cancel my house sale contract without extra fees after personal plans changed? 2
Dear Lawyers,
I signed a Form F with a buyer for the sale of my house as we were planning to leave the country. The contract was signed about a month ago, but the handover is not until August.
Due to personal circumstances changing, we are no longer leaving Dubai and would like to cancel Form F.
The Form F contract stipulates that we have to pay the buyer 10% of the purchase value. The real estate agent is now claiming that we also have to pay the buyer's real estate commission and the conveyancing fee.
Our understanding is that the 10% penalty is the only penalty. Which is correct, and what are the next steps to dispute this?
Also, is there any way to dispute the 10% itself under the law due to personal circumstances changing?

Tenant always late with payments, hasn't renewed contract. What to do? 2
Hello,
I have a tenant who is always late with their payment. Their renewal was supposed to be last December 2023.
Currently, they have not signed any new contract, provided any new cheques, and have stayed for three months from December until now without paying rent.
Additionally, I just discovered that they have sublet the apartment with partitions, which is clearly stated as not allowed in the old contract.
Please let me know what should I do legally!

Tenant received renewal notice, rejected proposed rent on renewal day. What next? 2
Hi,
We sent a renewal notice to our Dubai-based tenant 84 days before his contract renewal, with a 10% increase in rent.
The tenant neither agreed nor disagreed with the proposed rent and replied on the day of renewal that he wouldn't be paying the proposed rent.
Due to the argument, the landlord decided to reduce the rent, but the tenant has not yet renewed his contract. It has been 12 days since his contract expired.
Kindly suggest what could be done in this matter.
