Hello, I am on OFW in UAE and I will be sponsoring my family, I will be going home and bring them back to ensure their safety. However due to Manila lockdown, I cannot process my daughter's UAE Resident visa because it needs to have red ribbon and UAE Embassy stamp in Philippines and it is currently pending on DFA, it wont reached the deadline as I am travelling home next month. 

I will be bringing my Wife and Daughter along with Me. However only my wife is on Resident Visa and my Daughter would be on Visit visa. Please advise if it is allowed or Not.

Thank you.
