Q: I left without informing my company in Dubai. I worked there for three years at my current company. Can I enter the UAE on a visit visa after six months to search for a job? Will there be any ban imposed on me?

Q: I am trying to cancel my visa application through DMCC free zone, however, the application as stated by DMCC was 'returned by immigration as the applicant is still wanted by police. Please clear the case so we can proceed with the application'. The issue I am having here is that I don't know why this is coming back from immigration as I have checked police cases online and there is nothing showing. I also checked on Dubai Prosecution website and cant find any case showing either. Does this mean I have a criminal case and warrant for my arrest that I can't find online and don't know about? I am very worried and concerned about this situation as I can't find any information regarding any case. At the same time, my employer is filing an Absconding Case as they can't cancel my visa and are now being charged overstay fees due to my passport not being stamped. This creates another issue as I have just been offered new employment in Dubai. What should I do and is it likely that I have a criminal case?

Q: Hi Sir/Mam, I worked in Dubai for 4 years. I changed my last job in 2016. Here, I got few issues related to work with my last employer - where he deliberately tortured me to make submit resignation. At the same time, I was cheated by a real estate company by AED 60000. I am in debt with banks through loans and credit cards and I was in too much tension about the job and came back to India without intimating the company. I did not pay my dues since Nov 2016. Currently, I am residing in India and I want to clear my debts because I don't want to keep a negative tag and to lift the ban if anything is imposed on me. My friend approached a lawyer who said he will support in clearing my debts through a small amount of fine via court. For this procedure, the lawyer is going to charge 10-15% of the total amount due. Please let me know whether the court will simply knock of my case and remove the ban if I paid the fine to them (or) the lawyer is cheating us. Please help out. Regards, S.

Q: Hello everyone, I have had an absconding case for 5 years and some financial cases which I managed to remove one after one. Only one of them is pending which is a cheque case of 250k. I managed also to resolve the issue with the old sponsor and now I am afraid to visit Al Aweer because of the 150k immigration FINES on me. I want a lawyer to remove my absconding using the sponsor's letter and even taking the sponsor himself without the need for me to visit Aweer. I am ready for any fees but most important. I need quick action because I had several experiences with fake promises and I lost some amount to people promising and not honoring their promises. Summary: Remove my absconding (I have a withdrawal letter from the sponsor) and apply for a "petition" to reduce fines for me in immigration without asking me to go there.

Q: Dear questioner, I am from Pakistan. I had absconded from a company and the police deported me in 2016. The police took my fingerprints and eyes scan. Now, can I come back to the UAE?

Q: Hi, I ran away from my employer and now I have an absconding case. My employer asked me to pay because he needs to pay for the removal of the absconding and cancellation. After I sent him the money, he is asking again for the payment of the removal of absconding. My visa ends on May 2, 2023. Any advice on what to do as he is not replying to my messages anymore?
