Hi all,
My DH got transfer his job into other company, and we (wife, 2 kids and maid) are under his sponsor. PRO in new company said he only need to transfer his visa only, while the rest of the family's visa are remain the same since DH is the sponsor not the company.
We will have our vacation and my maid also will have her vacation soon, i just want to check if anybody experience situation like this that they can go vacation and return to the country with no hassle. My main concern is my maid that i don't want her to have any problem getting into the country after the holiday.

If you can share would be great help.

Thanks

Thanks There was once a system to put dependents visa on hold until the main sponsor changed companies within Dubai, not sure if this is still a service immigration still allow. I also recall that a deposit of around 5k per person was required and you had to lodge the passports until the main sponsor finished the transfer, so no travel would have been possible until done. Do update us on how you get on : )

What? This doesn't sound right at all. Is he transferring to a completely new company? As far as I was aware if a husband changes job/company, then all the visas of his dependants have to be cancelled before his can be cancelled/transferred, then he has to reapply to sponsor everyone again. You really need to check with the DNRD as I've never heard of this.
