Settlement of a bounced cheque to issue a new employment visa

There was a case filed against me in Muraqabat Police Station for bouncing cheque.

I was not able to pay my loan for more than 4 months as I lost my job and unable to pay. I informed the bank and negotiated with them, but they want me to pay at least half of the loan amount.

My problem now is that I got a job offer but my new employer cannot issue an employment visa for me as I am in the blacklist status.

My previous employer also cannot cancel my visa, they were able to cancel my labour card and already beyond the grace period of 30 days.

My previous employer told me that they will present my passport to the visa section and file an absconding case against me.

Please advise if they can really push filing an absconding case against me?

What shall I do regarding the bounced cheque so that my new employer can process an employment visa for me?

There are 2 issues to your case :

1. The bounced cheque which needs to be resolved through the payment of a fine if the amount is less than AED 200000. Has the bank already bounced your cheque and filed the police case against you?

2. Yes, the employer can file an absconding case against you so it is important that you close the bounced cheque first and then move ahead with your new visa application.

Yes the bank already bounced my cheque and filed the police case.

My loan is just less than AED 200000.
