Checking criminal records in the UAE for accusation of theft
4
Q: My husband cancelled my residence visa due to some misunderstanding between us. He wants a divorce.
Two months before, my husband sent me back to India. Last week only he cancelled my visa. I found it through his mail ID. My passport is in my in-laws' custody.
My husband says there is a theft case registered against me in the UAE and I am blacklisted. I am really scared. He says I cannot visit the UAE again.
I need to know if I am blacklisted. How can my husband cancel my visa?
Please help.

How can we claim our money back if the cheque we received have bounced for insufficient funds? 0
We received a cheque which has now bounced. We have tried for over a month and a half now to get a new cheque from the person, and every day he says the next day.
We need the money now. We have been to the police station, and they said they can not do anything as the reason the cheque bounced is "Insufficient funds."
We have been to Al Barsha - Dubai Courts, and they said there is nothing they can do about it.
We are not sure what we can do. We need the money asap to pay our kids' school fees, let alone all the interest we have lost.

Who is supposed to pay for the transfer fee, the employee or the employer? 0
Hello
I joined my new company on February 26, 2025. Upon joining the new company, I asked HR if it was free to join the company, and she said yes.
After working with them for 1 month, I experienced a salary delay, and I had to go to the office to ask why there was a delay in my salary.
That is when the HR told me she deducted my whole salary to recover the transfer fee.
Now my question is, who is supposed to pay for the transfer fee, the employee or the employer?
