Post new topic

scousemidwife

Hi everyone. I am new to the forum. Im a band 6 midwife looking to move over with my two sons and partner. I am interested in any information really. Im struggling to find info on the web at present. Can anyone point me in the right direction and also will I be affected by the fact that my partner is not my children's biological father, nor are we married. Many thanks for reading.

To work in the healthcare sector, you would need obtain a license from DHA through passing a licensing exam.  See some links on that below.

For jobs, you need to either go through UAE based recruitment agencies that deal with medical professionals or contact facilities directly.

And, if you are not married, you will NOT be able to sponsor your husband to come live with you.  Kids you might be able to manage as a single mother but the process would require an NOC from the biological father, birth certificate of the kids with father's name on them, divorce paper or decree as well as having fulfilling a certain salary requirement and all documents would need to be attested by the home office and the UAE embassy in the UK.
