Hi everyone,
Our new house help's one-month-extension visa was expired two days ago and her previous employer cancelled her visa only yesterday. So now in order for her to get her new residence visa from our side she needs to FLY out of Dubai and come back. PLEASE does anyone know anything about this rule? We thought we would just pay the fine and she can get her visa stamped in her passport. She even have a visa under her name but because of the previous employer not cancelling her visa it could not be stamped...
Anyone?? Please...

Sorry to interfere with your post, can tourist visa be changed to employment while one is in the country?

If her employment/residency visa was only just cancelled, then what was the one-month extension an extension to?? She cant be holding two different visa's at the same time. If she is here on a cancelled visa she has 30 days to either obtain a new visa, or exit, but you may need to apply for an entry permit first (I think around 300AED), and then pay the visa run fee (around AED500) in order to start the process for the new residency visa.
