What to do if the bank is taking money without resolving my case?
Q: Hi We had a case against us by a bank for a loan (claim amount 236000.00 AED) for which we paid a legal fee of AED 25000.00 to the bank along with the outstanding claim amount as per judgment. After two months we received a court order to pay AED 10000.00 as a court fee. Please advise who should be paying the court fee as we have paid AED 25000.00 to the bank already as a legal fee. Also would like to know the exact legal fees for the claim amount.

I have not received my salary for last 3 months. Now I got a job offer

Will my visa as property owner be canceled if I stay more than one year outside the UAE?
Q: I`m a 63-year-old British National holding two apartments in Dubai; as such, I qualified for a Visa. My understanding was I could be out of the country for one year without returning, however, I`ve exceeded one year by 25 days (return should have been on 6 Jan 2023). Does this mean my visa will be canceled? Or can I pay some sort of fine at the airport? The Visa is valid until 01/10/2026. So obviously, I don`t want to lose it. My visa used to be an investor’s visa, but now I think it`s a retirement visa. It can be sent if requested. Once again, please accept my profound apologies for this direct approach, and may I offer my sincere appreciation for any information you can provide. Best regards R. A.
