hello :) since i no longer work i have to be sponsored by my husband's Dubai based company. we live and he works in Al Ain. My tourist visa has expired (not worried about that) but [u]HR at his company are saying that for my residency visa to be expedited my passport needs to show me exiting from the same point as i entered the UAE.[/u] in my case this would mean a flight out of and re-entry into AD airport. I am loathe to do this because we live at AA and a drive to Muscat or Sohar for the weekend is a much preferred option.

Does anyone know if what hubby's HR are saying is true?

thank you.

Thats was true about 3 years back. They would not issue a residence visa whilst you are in the country. You have to enter the country on a visit visa before they process the residence visa thank you....so i think you are suggesting a trip to Oman. very nice.
