40
Q: Dear Mr ElKhatib,
I am an assistant professor working currently in the United Kingdom. I suffered pulmonary TB 15 years ago (2003) and received all necessary medications.
I have some scars in my right lung; however, I worked before in the USA, Germany, Japan, and other countries.
Now, I have an offer from a university in Abu Dhabi but still worry about accepting it because I will resign from my job in the UK.
Do these scars make me unfit? Is there any solution for this problem?
Many thanks

Deportation for communicable diseases such as TB
23
Q: I am N.R. and I was working in the UAE as a staff nurse in a hospital in Dubai. Now, I am in India due to deportation from the UAE. I joined the hospital on Aug 4 and went for a medical clearance.
After a few days, they called me for repeating the medical as my X-ray shows patch. I went for the medical at al Mohaisanah but they didn't take the X-ray. Directly, they asked me for sputum examination for three days and PPD test.
I spoke with the doctor that I got pneumonia in 2013. He told me to check the sputum and PPD test. I've done this and the result came negative.
However, after a few days, I got a report as an old TB and they deported me to India. I checked in India but all the reports are negative and I lost my job.
I need to go back to the UAE as my husband is there. Can you please suggest a solution for this?

Liability of daughter against the debts of her father 0
To whom this may concern,
I returned back to Australia after 10 years in Abu Dhabi in 2015. As I turn 18 this year in November, I plan on visiting friends who are in the UAE for about a month.
I would like to travel with them around the country freely without any prosecution from local officials.
My father had to leave the UAE in 2016 for health reasons and has unpaid debts in the UAE, Abu Dhabi specifically.
I would like to know and have it in writing if I would be able to travel freely to the UAE at the end of the year and that I am not liable for my parents' debts/problems as I have no legal responsibilities for their actions.
Kind regards.

Bounced cheque case for a loan after paying the fine 0
Hi
I have got a call from Dubai Police last week regarding my cheque bounce which I issued to the bank due to default on loan payment on time.
I paid a visit & they referred me to the prosecution & I got fine which I already paid and got clearance.
I want to know if the bank can still file a case against me & I still need to contact the bank for settlement or case clearance.
I am getting too many calls even after that, and the debt collector is actually harassing with the worst behaviour & back to back calls which actually ruined my personal life and put me in depression with high bp.
Thank you
