UAE expats: What to do if your visa is cancelled and your kids are still in school

If a parent loses their job in the UAE, their children’s visas, tied to the parent’s, also risk cancellation. However, options like spouse sponsorship, visa hold (with 3-month validity), switching to visit visas, or investor visas can help maintain legal stay. Student visas may apply in rare cases. Timely action prevents fines and ensures children can continue schooling uninterrupted.
