Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

To confirm what the chaps have said:

This is normal for Dubai.

Hi Zubair

Start your work diligently without taking such considerations. Razi is rightly saying and gave good suggestion to you.

Hi Zubair

Its normal practice in Dubai. Don’t worry. Make Sure company is reputed company and job is for long time.

You can start your work as normal but keep on following your works visa to get it at earliest. Company should bear all the cost related to visa changing.
