Q: Hi Sir, My sister's family had to exit the UAE on 25th Sep as her husband passed away on 20th Sep. Also given he was the main sponsor (investor visa) the resident visa of all family members had to be cancelled for them to exit and carry the human remains. However, the family members now need to go back to the UAE for winding up their home & also children's school. Can they enter considering the grace period of 30 days or do they need to re-apply for a new visa to enter the UAE?

Q: Hi. My wife has a travel ban due to the non-payment of a loan. She is sponsored by me and her visa is valid until the end of January 2019. My visa is expiring in December 2018 and I need to cancel my visa so that I can cancel my trade license, but in order to do that, I need to cancel my wife's visa. Since she has a case against her, that probably will not be possible. What is the solution for this predicament? My wife is not in the country at the moment. Can my visa renewal be affected due to this? Thanks
