Hi all,
I am new to this forum and found it very useful. I got an job offer from a reputed government company of Abu dhabi, as they have arranged my visitor visa for interview in Abu dhabi and I signed a job offer there and did my medical there after returning to my home country after few days company HR official told me to resign and ask for my joining date and told that they will apply for my employment visa.
So as it was a reputed company I resigned and gave them my joining date and till my relieving I did not received my visa I followup with company official many times and they told me that visa is still under process and suddenly after few days they gave me reply as my visa is rejected from immigration.
I got shocked as I have left my job and then followed with company HR a lot but they did not specify the reason and told me that they have applied for my visa twice but both the time it rejected. I do not know why because I do not have any criminal record in my present country nor anywhere else. They told me that they will apply for my visa again after six months.
So please reply me is it possible that i will get my visa after six months when the company will apply it. Also please suggest me a way to get this issue resolved.
Requesting you please to reply as I am in very critical situation.

Again, I terribly sorry about your incident. A big mistake here was your HR requested you to resign from current job before getting a employment visa/ work entry permit. There are many cases which are similar yours. None can tell you why your visa was rejected and none can guarantee it will be obtained in next 6 months. The best advice is looking for a new job now while waiting for visa again. Good luck to you !
P/S : I do many google about Security Clearance/ Visa process.

Thanks Cubon for your reply but I just wanted to know if somebody had experienced this type of case in which the UAE Embassy have issued visa later on after six months or later. I request other viewers also please share with me if you have gone through any of this kind of case.

I'm sorry to know about your situation. Maybe that is the only excuse they had not for them to tell you directly that you're not fitted for their company - just kidding! :D Okay, the way I see it, it is a plain newbie mistake on the HR side. First, if your a visit visa that is supposed to be transferred into a working visa, you don't need to resign (and all HR knows about this for sure). They will just process your visa for cancellation and apply for you an employment visa - which only takes like a couple of days to a week. You can absolutely work under that company even with your visa is under processed. Otherwise, exit on a country and stay there for a meantime while the visa is on process (usually Kish Island in Iran or Oman). Second, the HR promised you after 6 months. Since you resigned from the company (in cases of private companies) without having a tenure of more than 2 years, you'll get an automatic labor ban of 6 months to a year. That's why the HR told you to wait after 6 months for them to re-apply you. Third, there are a lot of cases that happens here in UAE regarding mistakes on processing visa. One of the more serious cases I knew, is that 150 heavy truck drivers were not able to get a working visa after being brought here by a local agency in the Philippines, resulting to closure of that agency and serious debt issues on those unfortunate drivers. That incident happened around early 2009. The best way is to find a work during this 6-month period and forget about that company that promised you an issuance of visa after 6 months. A lot of companies here in UAE (highly reputed or ordinary alike) play nasty tricks on employee recruitment and visa processing so better be vigilant next time. ;)

Can you please elaborate on this? I am currently employed in Saudi for 1 year now. I have an initial offer in UAE. I am now waiting for the final contract. Does it mean I wont be able to join the company in UAE within 6 months after they issue a visit visa? Your response is highly appreciated. Thanks...

I didn't expect any unexpected ...

Naturally after couple of follow ups at the May end company wrote me a line stating my reapplication was denied ...

They also advised not to hope since now a days ADNOC recruitment process involves lots of factors ...

Surprisingly I'm still getting phone calls from Abu Dhabi for offers in other ADNOC Group of Companies ...

TOTALLY CONFUSED ....

Can the sponsor reapply our visa after completion of 6 months after cancellation of previous visa or we have to wait 15 days more after completion of six months for submission of visa application?

For example, if our visa was cancelled in 10 March 2013, it will be six months on 10 September 2013, so can the sponsor apply for new visa on 11th September or he will have to wait 15 days more to submit application? After that the processing will take 10-15 days more.

A big mistake done by the HR officer handling your file. Most Senior HR officers will normally only advise you to only resign once they have the Employment Visa on-hand... even if there is an urgency to get you onboard at the earliest. A big risk on your part if you already resigned.

Just for curiosity based on your nationality, is your passport indicating any information that you are from Gujarat, Ahmedabad, Jamnagar?

Kindly note that once your visa application has been rejected by UAE Immigration, it is very rare that you will be granted another Employment Visa or entry in the future because your personal details will remain in the Immigration online system.

If you still get calls for employment in UAE, some who experienced visa rejections in the past were able to secure Employment visa if the sponsorship is thru one of the manpower agencies approved by ADNOC. But again, this is seldom and chances are slim.

It would be best to continue your other career opportunities in other GCC countries.

New to Forum

Hello,
I accepted a job offer for UAE and should be getting my paperwork tomorrow for SC. Is the process still taking a long time? I have read through previous threads that discussed the long waiting cycle for a lot of people but I also saw a thread said there were changes to the process. Can someone please feel me in.

Hi All. Im in a similiar situation as the initial poster. But I was employed in Dubai previously and was asked to submit my cancellation documents. They now tell me my visa application was rejected twice at immigration in Abudhabi. My family and I have now passed the 1 month grace period too in anticipation of this visa. I was previously employed the in Dubai free a new and have no criminal issues. I understand my nationality has no issues either. What could be the alternate reasons for rejection?
