UAE rejection of an online GCC resident visa
Salam Mr Ahmed,
I am a resident of Oman for 11 years. I applied for online GCC resident visa for my husband and I, unfortunately, we got rejected 3 times since August 2017.
However it was easy for us to get the visa online before and we visited Dubai many times, almost every year.
My question is: is there any possibility to detect the problem and sort it out??
By the way, we are lecturers working in a college and holding Iraqi passports.
Dear Questioner,
I hope my message finds you well.
It is quite common what happens to you and your husband as I received several similar inquiries.
Unfortunately, there is no way anybody can have access or reasoning from the security department to the Visa Rejection reasons as it is confidential and is relevant to their security check-up.
I would advise you to either change the Visa Type or try getting the Visit Visa through a travel agency with supporting documents like your cv, bank statement, showing assets at your country of residence and a certificate of good conduct from your country of residence.
All such documents may help your application and would provide the relevant aid to the security officer to grant you acceptance to your visa application.
Still, we saw similar cases where the applicants provided all such supporting documents and got the rejection.
The Immigration authorities have the right to accept or reject any application without reasoning, and actually, with or without a reason. This rule is the same worldwide.
Regards,
Ahmed Elnaggar
