    VISAs are for foreigners working here in the US...if you were born and raised and currently live here, do not worry about it - the answer is no, you will not need a VISA now or in the future.

    You need to exit from Dubai once. My younger bro's friend is searching a Job in Dubai these days. He is there on a tourist visa, valid for 30 days. If he is able to find a job within that time frame he will be coming back to Pakistan before Eid then again departing for dubai to make his employment visa valid. EDIT: @Word of Mouse -- First of all, you are mentally sick and you need a professional help. Second, you are a top contributor yet can not read a simple English sentence. Please go and read my post clearly and give it your full attention. My younger bro's friend is living there on a tourist visa not my brother. Plus, his friend is living there on a tourist visa and actually spending money from his pocket. He has not found a job yet. My brother got a text message from his friend so he told me about it. That's all. As for my stance, yes, UAE is not a good place for anyone to work and live there. I stick to my guns over my stance. Again, I would advise you to learn to read my post properly instead of carrying a chip on your shoulder. You are just making a fool out of yourself. @Word of mouse --- I did not change my post. I did not need to lie. People who had read my post before than yourself could vouch for my honesty. Well, everyone suffers from depression nothing new in that - it can be managed with exercise and all that. It is not like I am suffering from schizophrenia/psychosis and you can see that my thoughts all are well organized. Go and learn to debate in a civilized way rather than dragging one;s personal life into debates. That's a cheap tactic and I do not believe in that. The way you are debating it just goes to show that how Emiratis interact with people. Enough said.
