Hi everbody,
I imagine that you already talked about this... but I cannot find the info that I need from past threads. I already found someone that I would like to bring, she send a copy of her passport and photo. What would be my next steps?
1- do I need to go somewhere to solve some paperwork before she comes? What are the next steps that I need to take?
2- how do people normally proceed? Do you send the money for the flight... if yes, how? If not, how do you do it?
3- once she is here... at the airport... what do I need to do? and afterwards?

Your help would be very much appreciated.

Can your maid prove that she has gone thru the necessary training as required by the Philippines govt? If not, she might have problem exiting the country unless she come to dubai with visit visa or thru other SEA country (employment visa). My boss used DNATA ....employment visa and she came via Malaysia as his maid had not gone thru any required training. I brought my maid to Dubai using visit visa. I used one of the agencies that you could easily find in Karama (Karama Centre / Al Attar Centre) on Kuwaiti Street. They charge about AED3300 for ticket, visit visa and admin. When your maid is here, you can process her employment visa yourself within 2 months period. Someone mentioned here b4 that they used one of the employment agencies in Dubai as it is apparently cheaper but I really don't know about it. Maybe somebody would comment on that later. HTH. Good luck.
