Hello,

Your employer is legally required to pay all dues, including gratuity, unpaid salary, unused leave, and any other amounts owed to you upon the termination of your employment, whether voluntarily or involuntarily.

If your employer continues to delay payment beyond a reasonable period, you have the right to file a complaint with the UAE Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (MOHRE).

For further assistance, kindly share your Whatsapp number.

Dear questioner

They are obligated to provide you with EOS once the notice period is served and after 14 days.

However, if they are delaying the same, then you are required to file a complaint in MOHRE.

If you need further assistance, kindly share your Whatsapp number.

We understand your concerns. Normally the dues should be settled within 14 days of official cancelation.

You may keep a record of all communication with your HR department, including emails, messages, and any documentation related to your employment and termination.

Note the date your visa was canceled. If they haven't settled it within 14 days, you may file a complaint with MOHRE.

If you need further clarification, you may ask.
