Visa process will not take that long. Initially they will submit the application for work permit and the permit will be approved after the security clearance. Chances for the rejections are there, but unfortunately they will not disclose the reasons.But if you got rejected, your application can never be processed. Once your work permit is approved, your sponsor need to pay AED 2000 along with a service charge of AED 6 prior to your visa submission. Visa submission charge will be AED 207. All these charges will be paid by your employer and you don't want to worry about the payments.

hi spatni , i think in normal case visa processing wont take that longer , since it is semi govt it might take more than 4 months as the sec clearance to be completed..

Everything depends on the person who handles it. Here, the process is very slow.
