Should'nt be a problem...we moved here last year in early sept...and the visa took almost 2 weeks...Most schools accept the visa copy once you get it stamped...Pls let your friend know that she will also require a school leaving cert from the previous school..also make sure that the school in dxb prescribes the format...we had to go back and forth with this school and the previous one in toronto as the formats were different...good luck to yr friend.. Hope this helps.

Hi all! A friend is moving from Qatar to Dubai in the next week or so but is being messed around by her DH's HR dept who are trying to delay their relocation date due to Eid. My friend has 2 children who both have school places secured ready for the new term. They are happy to fend for them selves for a few days if necessary until the HR dept get them selves sorted, and would rather be here ready for the first day of term, rather that delaying for up to 2 weeks as HR is currently suggesting. They want to know, do their children's visa's need to be completed before they can start attending school, or is proof that their visa's are under process sufficient? Hope this makes sense!! Any info welcome! TIA! :)
