Hi Tirena, thanks for your comments. Yes, we checked out with my husbands company and they will complete everything for me. What I am not sure of is timing. If I manage to secure a job, do I hav...
No, you can work while it is in progress. I managed to get a job and start before getting my residence visa.

Hello, Thienlinh252. It's hard to give specific numbers. There are a lot of factors involved, too. Things like where you plan to live in Dubai, what your budget will be for rent, etc. Some people work in Dubai and live in Sharjah because they want to spend less money on rent. I don't know a lot about the work sector you've mentioned but it is competitive here and there are different pay scales from one company to the next. The kind of passport and educational background you have also has an impact. Some people live in shared accommodation and some people don't like to do that. So, it really varies.

Hello, Taps. It's probably a bit late to reply now. Are you already in Dubai? Did you manage to find somewhere for your little one?

I feel for you. As I feel exactly the same. I hate every moment here. This will never be home for real. I've been trying to get a pregnant lady to help as this is a requirement for an assignment an...
Dear ZeldaVanDb, It's sad but this is what it's like in the UAE. I have also found that the forum is not that great, either. Very few people respond. It's a fast-paced, lonely life here. There are no 'real friends'.

Hello, Pamy1967. Did you manage to find out what your husband needs to do in order to sponsor you? When do you head out to Dubai? I'm afraid I don't know anything about agencies. But I can certainly help with info on sponsoring.

Hi artistmom. I agree with you! What's wrong with Sharjah?! Experiencing the same difficulties! Can't even find other mothers to get to know/connect with either.

Hi Tirena, welcome to Sharjah! In the year since I last posted I've come to find that Al Qasba is a great place to meet moms of little ones! Around 10 am is a great time to find other moms walkin...
Hello Gabdavrios! Nice to hear back from you! I work fulltime so am usually mostly available weekends. You sound like a busy person. Do you work, too? It would be nice to meet up some time. :-)

Hello, Ninuhyder36522. I had my antenatal care at City Hospital. I was looking for a British gynae doctor but found that she was much too busy so I ended up going to Dr. Johanna Mulder. A South African doctor there. She was absolutely amazing and has a very caring approach and manner. I will not go to anyone else now! I fully recommend her. :-)

Hello Rana81. I live in Sharjah and would love to connect with other mothers now that I have a child. I don't have any friends who have children. It would be great to connect with other ladies who are mothers. :-)
