Having Faith in God can change Any Situation Some time early last year, i thought of bringing my family back over to United Arab Emirates, having been away for more than 2 years. Initially i thought it was going to be as easy as before, not knowing that the rules were changed. I informed our companys personnel representative and showed him my prepared document for the submittal to Immigration offices as he is the one that deals with all papers works for the company related to the immigration issues. The man told me that the rules were changed and it was not at all possible for me to bring my family because of the occupation that I have on my labor contract. He said the salary is ok, but the occupational position is of less value than what the immigration requires workers to bring their families on. He advised me to get some of my certificates attested and get the labor ministry change my occupational position. The best qualification that I have is the one that I did online with a UK college, and when I sent it to the UK , the UAE embassy refused to authorize them because the study was done online. Left disappointed, I again consulted the representative from our sister company and this man again said its not possible, but asked me to pay him some money claiming that he knows some immigration officials who could possibly do it for me and i said thank you so much, but I am not interested in this procedure. Eventually, without adding any document, I took my papers to the typing offices for my family visa application and this office is in the same area with the main immigration offices. There, the typist read through my labor contract and clearly said it was not possible with the occupation on my contract and referred me to some immigration officials who, upon seeing my contract, turned me back saying I cannot sponsor my family on such an occupation. I pleaded with these officials telling them that my family was here before under my sponsorship and I produced all the proof but they remained stiff. I then asked if I could bring them on visit and this did not pay off again. All this time I was praying for the intervention of the Almighty God in to my situation. The situation looked hopeless and I was desperate. I prayed and there was not even a promising sign. I called my wife and we agreed to hand over the issue to the Almighty again. The following week we had a house church meeting in one of the brothers house and I asked them to pray over the issue and the brethren prayed. Two days later I went again to the immigration offices with the same documents without any additional sheet. Along the way the devil was telling me that I was wasting my time going back to the same place where my application was denied. It looked as if i was going against my self, but I told the devil that the faith that brought me back to the immigration again, the same will take me through. I went straight the same officials and presented my documents again and asked them to check if I could sponsor my family. They looked through my documents again and again i told them that my family was here (UAE) under my sponsorship. This time the official told me to bring my salary statement. I went out to the bank, brought the statement and the gave me the family visa. This time it looked so easy and I felt as if I was dreaming, but that was real.God granted me the VISA against the new rules. Is there anything too hard for God. Bro Robert Rufu Ajman UAE
