You are always ready to ridicule others, however it is a must here that even when you visa expires it has to be submitted for cancellation.

Although I'm not sure what the purpose of this post was?

Just Sage being a wanker... and upping his post count. He has a new goal... 20,000!

Another one coming in with the name calling.

However it was commenting on Concords obvious disbelief that you have to cancel an expired work visa, which is the case.

Surely you are kidding.

I must admit that I am a bit dense upstairs but "obvious".

And to think I wasn't serious before: But now...



p.s. Sage, I know it is hard for you to do but I suggest you re-read this thread from the beginning, post-by-post and try to get it (well,not your portion as it is just a parroting of previous posts). If you still can't understand it, from a written, language-grammar point of view, feel free to pm me and I'll explain it to you. If you can't comprehend it then...

ps2 I am glad this was a thread by fayz so that neither your nonsense nor arniegang's will distract him. And he has no teets anyway...

Just a quick update on this thread, I decided to do the right thing and get my visa renewed, went to do my blood test, everything was going well until I went to immigration and realized the company's trade license was expired, my fault.

I'm going to organize the renewal of the trade license and all that fun stuff but wanted to confirm, do i have 30 days from when my visa expires to renew it? is it better if i do a quick visa run?

Thank you again for all your help.

I'll be staying in the UAE at least for the short term, I'm thinking Argentina next but I want to wait until Fayz Jr. is old enough to travel, the test will be our trip to Mexico in Feb, if that goes well we'll move forward.

Yes you do have a 30 day grace period from the time your visa expires, however if you try to leave the country during this 30 day peiod things may get a bit difficult at immigration. Visa run, now theirs a thought, if your Visa is expired, unfortunately I believe you will have to get it cancelled in order to do a visa run, its a bit of a grey area.

pm Dxbsoul Fayz, he will prob know

thnx sage, you are right a visa run may not work. Anyhow I'm hopeful to finish everything up before my visa lapses, just with the weekend and then Eid starting next weekend i'm not sure i'll finish in time.

howdy fayz ..... or should it be "buenas noches"

30 days from the date that the cancellation is stamped in the passport. after that they start fining you 100 aed per day. i assume from the previous bits of info in your posting that there is a mrs fayz and a babmibino fayz as well - remember if you have cancelled yours residency you should cancell theirs as well - if you haven't already...

thanks dbx, Just for clarrification, I'm not changing jobs nor cancelling my visa at this point in time, I do want to renew it but need to wait until the company license is renewed before I can renew my residency, or not? I'm assuming because the company that is my sponser has an expired license I need that rectified first before I can fix myself.

If for example my residency expires on Oct. 25 does that mean I pay 100/day from the 26th or 30 days after the 25th?

Thanks again, currently Mrs. Fayz has about 2 years left on her visa and little fayz is only 13 days old, still doesn't have residency, he is of no fixed country for another couple weeks until he gets his passport.

yep, company license has to be done first. if they can get that sorted then the residency process could get pushed through in a day.

the fine kicks in from day 31.

haha, i know the storey about waiting for the passport to arrive.

BTW congratulations
