Hi Friends,
I am an Indian currently employed in Kuwait. I live with my family here; and my child is studying in 9th grade CBSE school. I have got a job in Abu Dhabi and have to initiate relocating process. My new employer will process my work permit. Is it possible to get the dependent visas for my family and can we move together to Abu Dhabi; or do I need to move first and then process the dependent visas for my family. Kindly let me know the processes involved.
Also kindly let me know CBSE schools offering Sanskrit as second language in 9th standard. I need to get a middle of the year transfer.
Please advice.
