How long does it take the court for disbursement labor dues after payment by the employer?

Hi there,

I have a labor case that has been ruled in my favor. I filed an execution case & the employer paid the outstanding balance to the court.

I requested disbursement and this has been accepted. I have given the court my IBAN & account info.

How long does disbursement take?

Thanks

We need to verify that the employer had paid the balance amount to the court.

The process of filing an execution is comparable to that of filing a regular case, where there are precise standards that must be met.

We can provide you with the services. in order to go further with this case, there is more information to be provided.

Yes, the employer has paid the balance amount to the court.

We need to verify whether the employer had cleared the balance payment to the court.

You must contact us to take the necessary legal procedures for further proceedings.

Do you have copy or proof that the employer paid your money to the court?

The execution court will notify the defendant in all possible means and ask them to comply with the court judgment.

After the notification period (15 days), and if the defendant did not pay his dues, the execution court has the power to take different steps to collect the debt (e.g. attachment orders on movable and non-movable assets).

Yes, I have proof that the employer paid the court the money.

I am wondering how long it takes the court to pay me.

The status of my execution file says ‘payment in auditing’.

The execution procedures would complete according to them and you will even be eligible to get all the court fees as well.

It can take up to 20 days in Abu Dhabi and more than a month in Dubai.

Thank you.

Is there a way to expedite it?

18 May 2023, 08:14

No. The maximum is to resubmit the request, but it doesn't help.

The status says ‘payment in auditing’, do you know what this means?

It means that payment is under process.

Dear User,

There is no specific legal period stipulated in the law regarding disbursement in an execution case.

You may follow up regularly or hire a lawyer to try to speed up the process.

Regards.
