Hello folks
Not really a newbie in the UAE but a newbie on here. Looking to meet and make new friends.  Mature (over 40s) ideally.
Not into the clubbing scene.  More into home industry and leisure activities around the home.
Cheers

May be the X-ray test was negative.  You should consult a doctor in your country and get this clarified before you try to come back.

Good luck

Hi there!

Looking for some urgent advice if possible! I was offered a teaching position in Abu Dhabi last year with an excellent relocation package for myself, my husband and 4 children.

However, my eldest daughter was born to a previous relationship and I was unmarried to her father. I panicked as I couldn’t find anything to clearly explain the legal implications of “illegitimate” children, and withdrew from the post. I was told by the school’s HR department that all I would need is the letter of no objection from my daughter’s father.

Now, here I am one year later with a few excellent opportunities on offer within Abu Dhabi and Dubai, if I take the leap. My family and I were hugely disappointed that our plans didn’t go ahead last year. At that point, I felt I didn’t have enough information, but now strongly considering making plans to live our family dream.  Would I be in trouble with the UAE law if I relocated and they realised on arrival that my daughter was born out of wedlock? Any advice would be hugely appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Hi guys, soon to be working in my dream land...
IDK it is weird for a girl like me to like Middle east countries as my "dream land" - the new Milk & Honey of the Nurses... Lower cost of living than UK and USA, and u can go home every year, that's why it is perfect for me...

I would like to ask, how many weeks would it take for Working visa to be approved? Tnx and more power guys...
By the way: I am single... #NBSB 😉😁😊

Hello,

Its a good place to living. and it will take 4-6 weeks to get working visa. Welcome on board

Hi Lovely People of the forum.

I have been a frequent visitor to UAE but was based in Nigeria for past 5 years.

I have re settled in UAE in 2019 January and am happy to be part of this warm and helpful group.

I have got some feedbacks on my earlier posts for my travel to some of the African countries and it was really helpful.

Best Regards,

Mohammed Rashid

Hi all, I have recently received my official contract to teach Maths in UAE. I am hoping to travel out around 10th August 2019. I am very flexible to where I will teach but reading about RAK, I would like to go there. Are there any female teachers already working in UAE who can advise on what work clothes to bring. Any other information would be really appreciated.

Hi everyone!

I'm currently a senior lecturer in Education at a university in the UK but looking for opportunities in the UAE, in particular Abu Dhabi or Sharjah.

I have been looking online actively for a month and I have been offered a couple of positions, but I suspect these email offers are fraudulent as they are requesting that I pay for my own residence permit before a contract is confirmed. I am going to continue to look but from now on will apply to universities and colleges directly through their website or the MoE website instead of agencies.

I have never lived outside of the UK so would be really interested to hear (1) the process people have taken to find teaching jobs in the UAE, (2) the experiences of people that are not from the US as most education settings seem to use a US curriculum/model of education and (3) what a standard teaching package/contract looks like so I know how to spot a genuine offer and a fraudulent one.

I will contribute as much as I can! Thank you for creating this space.
