Why did an employment visa get rejected when a new company applied for it?

Good afternoon,

I just canceled my visa from my last company which I have been working for since 2016 and my new company applied for a new visa but it was rejected.

Please what do I need to do?

Thanks!

Dear questioner,

Kindly inform us whether you are currently residing in the UAE or outside the UAE.

There are many reasons for a visa to be rejected, such as invalid documents, spelling mistakes, and the documents submitted are not very clear.

You should have a look at them and ensure they are all clear, and up to date, have no missing documents, and all information filled out is accurate and has no mistakes.

For example, if one spelling mistake such as a letter in your name is wrong, it can lead to a visa application rejection.

Furthermore, if you are currently residing outside the UAE, you may hire a lawyer to conduct a criminal record check in the UAE which could possibly be the reason for your visa rejection.

Kind Regards,

I am in Dubai and have just canceled my old visa on the 11th of this month.

When I went to immigration, they asked me to write a letter in Arabic saying that I have been working since 2016 and just canceled and now my new visa is rejected and that I should attach the old visa, the new visa, and a cancellation copy with my offer letter and passport copy and send them to an email address was given to me.
