What to do if I am employed in the UAE and got immigration visa approved?

Dear lawyer,

I am working in Dubai in a company and I won the American Diversity visa program, so I booked my US Visa interview in Abu Dhabi but from Ghana.

I am under an employment agreement.

No issues, you can attend the interview and mention that you are currently a resident in the UAE.

Dear Client,

Thanks for your question, I hope you are doing well. I will definitely assist you in this matter.

Certainly! If you've won the American Diversity Visa program while working in Dubai, here's what you should do.

First, inform your employer about your situation and request time off for the US visa interview and any potential relocation.

Review your employment contract to understand notice periods and resignation terms. Request time off professionally and follow your contract's guidelines.

If your visa is approved, prepare for your departure from Dubai and fulfill any legal obligations to your employer.

We will definitely be happy to help you.

Thanks & Regards
