5
Q: Dear Sir/Madam,
My wife was working in the UAE from 2016 to 2018 and completely finished her contract. She got the cancelation of the papers from the company then she moved to another company.
But the new company visa process got late from the date of the paper cancelation. So it expired and she did not exit the country at that time for more than 1 month.
She went to her home country and she faced immigration at Dubai airport. They deported her for absconding and gave her an immigration ban. I tried in 2021 to get her a visit visa but that was also rejected.
My question is how to come again to Dubai?
Any possibility to check that at immigration?

Returning to the UAE after leaving without paying the overstay fine


29
Q: Dear sir/madam,
My brother has overstayed his visit visa for over a month. We don't have any means to pay the fine and renew his visa.
We are planning to send him on outpass.
We just want to know if there will be a lifetime ban on him or if he can come back again to the UAE.
Thank you!
Regards,

Applied for freelance visa after overstaying, still awaiting approval. Will I get deported?


1
Q: Dear Sir/Madam,
Last year, after serving my first company for 2 years, I received my cancellation letter and gratuity. Another company offered me work and promised to arrange my visa, but they failed to do so until I overstayed.
I did some work that helped me apply for fines reduction and pay off fines. I paid some money for a Freelance Visa, but until now, I have only received an offer letter and a labor card from them.
What should I do? I'm afraid of being deported.

Can the owner of a company escape if there is a cheque execution and travel ban on him? 0
I raised a cheque execution case against a company and its owner and won. There is a travel ban on him. I was receiving installments for three months and now he stopped paying.
The court after request summoned him. In total, he paid only 30% of the owed money. I found that his company license is expired and also in the month his visa will expire.
Does he have any option to avoid payment?
Please note he was deceived by showing no money in his bank account and no assets in his name but he is running multiple businesses.
Also a month ago, he tried to convince me to lift the travel ban but I refused to do so. But he submitted a guarantee and left UAE.
Now the status shows he is back in the UAE and the travel ban imposed again. But after that, he stopped payment.
Is there a 1% chance of him not paying me the remaining money?
Is there a way he can leave the country through the Amnesty program or any of this sort?

Can a developer demand extra payment for a 30% size increase after handover? 0
Hello,
I purchased a one-bedroom off-plan unit in Dubai from a well-known developer under an SPA specifying an area of 801 sq. ft. I completed all payments as per the developer’s payment plan, and the unit was handed over to me without a Title Deed.
After taking possession, furnishing the unit, signing a tenancy contract, and making repeated follow-ups to obtain my Title Deed, the developer informed me, 45 days after handover, that the actual area was 1,041.41 sq. ft., a 30% increase from the original SPA terms.
To receive my Title Deed, they are now demanding payment for the increased size.
Key issues:
- Failure to notify me before handover about the 30% increase in area.
- The SPA allows for price adjustments for area variations but specifies that such adjustments must be reflected in the final installment, which I had already fully paid before handover.
- The developer has now filed a legal case through Dubai Courts, demanding payment.
I require legal advice based on RERA/DLD laws and the SPA.
