She wants to change her visa to a visit visa and pay for the overstay but she was told that the sponsor put abscond on her passport.

Is the employee obliged to pay overstay fines to employer to get visa cancelled?
3
Q: My previous company filed an absconding case against me in December 2020.
The reason for them filing the case was down to the company refusing to pay the visa fines that had incurred due to not canceling or completing the residency visa.
Within 60 days period, I approached immigration who told me to contact the company to apply for absconding withdrawal which I did.
The company then requested I pay AED 4,800 to cover the cost of applying and withdrawing the case and cover visa fines.
As I didn't have that amount of money to hand, it took me a few months to get the money together. As of May 2021, the absconding case was officially withdrawn.
Now the company is requesting I pay AED 8,500 in fines in order to cancel the employment entry permit. How can I go about waiving or reducing this fine?
I don't have AED 8,500 to pay the fine. The company won't help me either. I am in a very difficult financial situation and have been offered new employment.
Any advice would be helpful.
Thank you.

Legal remedy for non-compete suit filed by ex-employer 1
Hi,
I have signed a non-compete clause (under unlimited contract) with my previous company. After working for 8 years with them, they terminated me.
I have now joined a competitor considering there was no other job available in the market. Now after 7 months, my previous company has filed a legal suit asking for compensation considering I am in a similar role and in the same territory.
What is the available remedy?

Eligibility for 3 months salary benefit upon termination for redundancy 16
Hi,
I worked in my company for 8 years and was terminated on the same day specifying redundancy as the reason. The company paid me all the dues (1 month notice period salary, gratuity, and unpaid leave salary).
I want to know if I am eligible for 3 months termination salary benefit considering none of the other employees were terminated?
