What can you do when your employer refuses to cancel your visa upon termination?

My employer told me she didn't need me anymore. I will finish my contract this October 21.

I told them to cancel me, they said no problem, I will cancel you. But my employer's sister interfered and said she will send me directly to the Philippines without cancellation.

What should I do?

Greetings.

Pursuant to your query, please be informed that your employer must cancel your employment visa prior to you exiting the country.

In case you're within the UAE, you can approach the Ministry of Labour and file a complaint against your employer if they refuse to cancel your visa.
