HAHA thank you very much for your concern. I was actually planning on just going to the airport and requesting one, but now that you have clarified this for me, I guess I will have to figure out some other way.. lol j/k

Seriously though... We have some freehold properties in Dubai and are eligible for residency visa through them. My agent has already spoken to the developer, who has/will approve it. I don't really have a need for it. Oh ya, just to clarify for anyone that cares, residence visas through property ownership DO NOT come with employment privileges.
