Possibility of lifting a ban for old TB scars in the UAE
42
Q: Dear Maam,
Good day!
I am from the Philippines. I would like to seek legal advice regarding my situation.
Last March 2015, I went to Dubai to look for a job and fortunately I was hired by one of the companies in Dubai but unluckily the result of my medical exam was unfit to work due to my lung scar.
I was able to talk to the PRO of the company and ask him that if I can still apply for a new visa and he said YES. So I exited to Qesm, but before I exit to Qesm I did an iris scan.
That bothers me because the passport doesn't have a stamp of life banned. Since the PRO told me that it's ok to apply for a new visa I resumed to exit Qesm and wait for my new visa.
But what happened to me is a mess. The PRO told me on Viber that I was already banned in Dubai.
Is there any remedy to lift my ban? I really want to go back to Dubai. I hope you can help me, Ma'am.
God bless and more power.

I was deported because of old TB scars on my lung. How can I lift the ban?


1
Q: Hi Sir,
How Are You?
I am from India and I am a salesman at XYZ Shop In Sharjah.
After completing 2 months, I went for a medical test my blood test was good but in the X-ray, they found a little scar on my left lung.
They transferred my medical report to (EHS) where I met a doctor who told me that I had TB. But I don't know when I had this disease, maybe in childhood.
Then I went for a gold TB test at a medical center where I met a TB specialist. After completing my sputum or blood test for 3-4 days, my test came negative.
So I collected all my reports and also a request letter from the doctor about my health, but they did not see my report and deported me.
I'm really worried that I cannot come to the UAE for my entire life not only on a resident visa but also tourist or visit visa.
Please can you help me?
Is there any legal process that I can lift my ban for at least a tourist visa?

Can I put a financial guarantee to remove a travel ban in a rental case at RDC? 0
I used to work as a manager in a company, and my name was removed by the Dubai court of execution.
Now, on the paid rent, I got a travel ban, which I objected to at RDC.
The RDC accepted and gave the next hearing date, as I will have all the court papers.
Is there any way to remove the travel ban, as the objections I made at the execution hearing are next month, almost one month?
Is there any way you can put the amount as a deposit, and once the objection case is over, you can take it back?

How can you reach a settlement to avoid legal action by the bank if you lose job and can not repay your loan? 0
My brother lost his job in the UAE 8 months ago and has a debt of AED 170,000 to a bank.
He is finding it extremely difficult to make monthly loan payments to the bank, as he has been unable to find a job even after 8 months.
What options does he have to reduce/settle his bank debt without having restrictions on him, like a travel ban, etc?
Please help him find the best possible solution considering his current financial situation.

My husband and I are Canadian Muslims and he passed away in the UAE. How to open an inheritance case? 0
Hi there,
My husband and I are Muslims. My husband passed away recently.
We have a Canadian will, but I understand that it won’t be honored as I am named the sole beneficiary, and that does not align with Sharia laws in the UAE. He was not a UAE resident but had a small apartment with no Will in the UAE.
We have 3 children. I am planning to go to Dubai to start an inheritance case. I don’t know the exact order of events and what needs to be done first.
1) Do I initiate anything from overseas before making travel plans to Dubai, or do I start once I arrive in Dubai?
Mind you, we cannot afford to stay in Dubai for too long, as the kids have school.
2) Do I need a lawyer, or can this be done by myself?
3) I understand all foreign documents need to be authenticated before presenting them to the court. But I don’t know at what stage I would need these documents authenticated.
I would appreciate it if you could provide a breakdown of the steps, the forms that are needed, and where I can find them.
Thank you

Can the employer ask me for visa expenses if I resign after completing the probation period? 0
I am working in a Dubai private company and I have completed six months of the probation period. Now, I have decided to resign due to a physical problem.
My MOHRE contract mentions one month's notice, and I am willing to serve the notice period, but the employer asks for visa expenses.
My passport was also retained by the employer. How can I cancel my visa by chance?
I filed a complaint at the labour court. How many days does it take to get a verdict?
