This isn't the company. This is from the Abu Dhabi government stating that all 18,000 people from all companies who don't want to live in sandblown Khalifa A or downtown Karachi Abu Dhabi don't have a choice if they want their housing allowance.

Will they have someone knocking at every address to confirm you are actually " living " in AD ? What proof will they need ? Do they pay you a housing allowance or pay the landlord ?

it is a requirement that the full family has to be in Abu Dhabi, no school allowance will be paid in Dubai and no visa for wife and children if they will not leave with you in Abu Dhabi!!

Adopted kids
Hello everyone, i can't seems to find any post regarding this. Anyone knows If UAE govt allows adopted kids be brought in?
The issue with adopted kids is they're considered marriable by their parents when they reach puberty as they have no blood tie. And having a non-muhrim in the same house creates problem?
Thanks

Atis 777 I spoke to HR, they know people will try to rent a small place or share an accomodation,if you have a family staying in the uae they have to be permanently in ABU DHABI if you want ot get the house allowance or school allowance,basically the only way could work it out if you don't have children and your wife is not working than once you rent a small place nobody will be able to track were you are going to spend the night, unless they track were you use your credit card!!

Housing is provided by an unnamed airline in AUH but at times it is in short supply hence the allowance and some crews choosing to live in Dubai. Previously the allowance would hardly cover acceptable housing in AUH but since the real estate crisis in Dubai and the drop in rents it became attractive to rent in Dubai and commute to Abu Dhabi. A glut in housing ensued in the capitol so the owners and developers were left with a surplus in available units, now the money grab has started, road safety is the excuse but greed is the reason.
