To me,UAE is better than Nigeria.i've been in UAE since May 2014 and glory be to God at least I'm earning just 3000AED but still planning to earn more than that. When I was in Nigeria I couldn't secure a job and just within 6days of my visit to UAE I secure a job of 3000AED with accommodation and transportion provided only God can help us in Nigeria

anoder encouragemnt

Myluv1:
That is why I said you need to ask your contact. You have to be sure and convinced. Don't be afraid to be inquisitive. Goodluck!

i got you perfectly... i will ask him ASAP. cuz i had the option to choose btw security guard nd d driving. i was contemplating on going for security, bt my friend convinced me that dubai taxi makes more sense, the agent also persuaded to get the driving that it will pay in the long run, so i took that of driving. I so much luv this thread that made front page

thanks myluve

byworld:
am the same person

so yu re also myluv1

byworld:
little but it a good offer if you are working with them, de are own by Dubai government

exactly wat i was told, i await my employment visa any time from now nd am still connecting with my friend undergoing the training currently. Everythin has been smooth with him so far

Myluv1:
Your folk's 3months visa will definitely give way for a new work visa which in this case grants him eligibility for a licence. There are job positions which will not qualify you for driving. The type job on your work visa determines that. Hope you understand now..

I'm thinking emirate card replaced that of labour since last year... I don't live in the UAE now though

did i jst say 3months i meant 3yrs visa

byworld:
even thou if you are getting 2000dirams nd you are sure of paying ya bills, you can bring her in but search for job in another company to get a residence permit. You will go to your company if they can free you to live outside dre accommodation nd to pay u ya aos allowance, you will need to provide ya wedding certificate thou

som1 jst told me resident permit is thesame as emirate id card. my plan is to hustle for 2-3yrs, get married nd bring my wife. Afterwhich she will aslo get a job too

another thing i see in this bad abroad/ good nigeria thing is that, so people are used to good/smooth life right from birth, some people mayt consider earning 1800-2500dhms as very low, its jst a matter of wat we are xposed to.
even right from the university, av been living with 15people inside one room( am sure Great Ife people can testify to this), so to me, its somthing m used to.
av been working for over a year now with 45salary. tell me, what can i do with 45k, feeding isnt part of it, tfare isnt part of it, nd dem no born me well to rent house(i wan diee ). If i had been in uae for over one year, earning as low as 1500aed,(wen am left with feeding). I wuld av better than i am now(by God's grace). I am very sure some people will not even touch there salary as a result of business they are doing to support themselves. everywhere has its negative sides, we jst av to be dtermined nd pray to God to favour every decision you make

Myluv1:
Ok, but not all types of work visa will make you eligible. Ask your contacts though and be sure.

pls xplain to me. bt i will be working with dubai transport authority, so the emplmnt visa dey will issue me shld make me eligible for the license. And i av som1 going thru the process currently, so far, no false alarm. seem he stays in Abu mail or na Abu mall, the guy he's staying with is a taxi man, so no problem of accommodation

byworld:
labor card simply means your work permit why emirate I'd card is your residence permit

so i need to have the 2cards to be able to work and settle in d con3.. jst guessing

byworld:
it will better if you can come directly on an employment visa, just a piece of advice.

yeah bro.. coming on an emplymnt visa. what do you kno about dubai taxi(dubai transport authority)??

byworld:
who told u dat ya spouse can't join u? So far you get job of 5500dirams or 6000, you are entitle to bring in ya spouse in and will be on ya resident permit, all you need to do is to provide ya marriage certificate and make sure ya job is safe!!!

but gein a 6000aed job myt take long o.. we wan marry early nkor

bayocanny:
Chai!!! Lobatan you have silent him already, anyway if u like use jesus beg muhammed I go comot dis country,@ u get mouth jare

@bayo, yu don vex oo

pls who could xplain to me how one can go about taking one's wife to dubai.. wat som1 must obtain

Myluv1:
Have you checked the cost of obtaining a driver's licence. Nigerian licence I think is not transferable in that region, so you will have to apply for a fresh one there. Also, the type of visa you are issued will determine if you are eligible for a licence or not.
Just do your homework well, ask questions to your contacts there. I'm not discouraging you o, just make sure that you are well prepared.

Goodluck!

will be going with an employment visa though

SkinnyDude:
and whats your own definition of good life? insecurity? no constant electricity? dirty environment? poor medical facility? poor education system?
see, i rather be a poor man in Sweden than be a millionaire in Nigeria. atleast i will have a peace mind, and give my children quality education.

no bros, no condemn yur country.... Even if you have all d money outside, yu are still coming back home.

i have someone that got to dubai last month with a 3yrs visa, he has done interview nd exam with the company. he jst obtained his emirate card last week nd jst today he paid 2600dhms @ driving school. actually when he told me of the 2600dhms ds morning, i swear fear catch me , bt he's still operating under his BAT for now. Cuz i cant jst tell my people about any huge money outside processing nd BAT for now

Am even almost thru with OSHA nd m planning to do NEBOSH after i myt av worked for awhile in dubai. tho driving is the nmain thing for now, i jst wan prepare myself for anything.

pls do you kno how emirate card is different from labour card

byworld:
another gr8 write up from you. Just wondering wat business you can invest #500k into, I mean in Nigeria of today, I don't see wat is bad in starting up with security guard job here in uae with only ya ssce or even non so far u can pass your DPS( Dubai police training exam) den along d way your bsc or master degree can fetch u a better offer. More over u can start up a business in nigeria from Dubai if u av a trustworthy member in ya family. So to my own opinion for dos shouting here dat de prefer to stay in nigeria #500k, a security guard in Dubai dat also establish a business down in nigeria is far better than u in many ways

yur so right bro.

Myluv1:
Make sure you have something to offer, don't just go hoping God will do everything for you.

y wont i av somthing to offer, am actually going for driving

nd pls, can anybody xplain to me what an emirate card is? difference btw emirate card and labour card

currently working my way to dubai too... i jst pray fro blessing of baba God. make evrything goes as planned

Op is right...... bt for those criticizing those that are travelling out, pls dont imagine doing business with 500k in Nigeria nd doing business with 500k from dubai to nigeria . I know it all depends on the grave of God, but m sure business of 500k from dubai to nigeria will pays better than 500k nigeria-nigeria business. I av many people in dubai doing security jobs and they are doing fine. Where i work in NIgeria(bsc), i earn 45k/month, nd those i met there, they av there for 4yrs, they are on 75k. we work 9hrs/day(9am-6pm), monday to saturday. you leave yur house 4-5am, get back home 9-10pm(roughly 16hrs/day), isnt this slavery my bro nd sis, starting with security job that can earn you 70+ above in uae(e.g dubai) is good, with the opportunity of doing business from there back home.

the truth of the matter is even in Nigeria, they come to enslave us with bullshit salaries, if yu can work here in nigeria, leave yur house 5am, get back home 9-10pm, yu shld survive the stress in uae too, though i know changing jobs isnt easy in uae. Yeah, there are some good jobs in Nigeria, some peple have been on 40-70k job here in Nigeria for close to 8yrs with the hope of getting a better one and they are still hoping.

my advice to people going is that, dnt leave on salary alone, there are so many businesses to venture into from there. If you av the opportunity to port out of the country, try to use, shine yur eye by porting well nd pary for blessings from God.

It depends on how urgent yu want it... Yu can go thru the official channel, bt it myt jst take long. I needed mine very urgently, so I had to go thru som1.

Its fine since u already made up your mind, I wish u well. Just follow your heart

Thanks boss... Hope to join the dubai crews nxt year

slimup:
It depends on what u want but if u ask me, I would advise u to wait and be sure your friend completely succeeds before you put in your money. Taxi cab driving is not better than security in terms of salary because your basic salary as a cab driver is not more than 1200 dhs, plus commission you get depending on the terms of employment. so it is relative and depends on choice of career.
As for adding it with business, it will be very easy if the job is in Dubai because this is where you have the biggest market and the cargo companies to facilitate your cargo out to Naija.
In all shine your eyes very wella

Thanks.. i appreciate yur response. the reason y i started on time is that we dont know what tomoro holds, nxt year, they might come up with issue of not issuing a nigerian a visa bla-bla... more so, where that my friend is staying, the person also went via ds agent nd he was succeded with d training nd he's doing wonderfully well now. I also got the gist of 1000dhms as basic salary+ 35% of total i make in a month. which i think is slightly good.

nd the main reason i took driving over security is that after a year if i dnt like the pay, i can switch to anoda job(security or still driving, bt wt a private coy).. since i av my driving license already. na also there leave package makes sense, i am entittled to a month leave after working for 6months or 2months leave after working 10 straight months.

i checked there driving rules nd fine online, mehn person needs to be very kiaful there o

bobkezel:
i mean the employment visa,its not easy to get,therefore there is bound to be a lot of scam.

owkae..

good for them....
