Hi!I would like to ask for help and support for other possible way to get temporary AOS.
I am currently working in one of the biggest healthcare company in UAE,as a nurse with above salary bracket to sponsor my sister for a visit.However my affidavit of support from our consulate will take some time to process and I am afraid that my sister’s visa and ticket will be forfeited soon. I am leaving on 29th Jan, have my contract with me. Can you allow me to bring my sister with me, please?
Hoping for your kind consideration on this matter.
