ICP-UAE has announced amendments that will allow working mothers to sponsor their childrens residency
14 Oct 2024
NewsThe UAE residency visa regulations have undergone a substantial upgrade, as stated by the Federal Authority for Identity, Citizenship, Customs and Port Security (ICP-UAE). This update permits working moms to sponsor their children's residence in the event that the head of the family violates residency laws.
With immediate effect, this move intends to give families in the UAE more stability and security.
According to the new rules, if the head of the family is discovered to be breaking residency restrictions, they can give the mother resident sponsorship for their children as long as she is working and has a valid residency visa.
In order to keep their children's legal residence status in the United Arab Emirates, families in whom the mother is the principal earner will find this change very helpful.
The ICP-UAE made it clear that the family head has to file for exit permits in order to leave the nation with their family.
This permits people to exit the nation without paying any fines while their resident status is still being regularised, up until October 31, 2024.
The statement is a part of larger initiatives to give the UAE's judicial system more flexibility.
The ICP-UAE has highlighted the need of using this time to address any residency difficulties as the deadline draws near.
