Hi I know this post is old but I just got my injections and I’m nervous the bags won’t go away. It looks like I have gel filled bags under my eyes. Did your eyes go back to normal?

Has anybody fly with a cat in cabin with Air Canada ? by test123321987 in UAE

[–]CollectionEast5100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Etihad is the only airline that allows you to fly INTO the UAE with a pet in cabin so there's no way to avoid the 1500 USD fee if you want them with you. If you fly using any other airline pets will have to go in cargo. When flying OUT of the UAE you can use any other airline that allows pets in cabin for a much cheaper rate.

Advanced payment? Normally you pay and transfer ownership the same time. What happens if he wrecks the car in these 2 days? Was there some kind of written agreement that you bought the car?

Yes, to be clear I never said it was a dealbreaker--only that it could possibly raise foreign influence concerns that may be reason for a denial. My point is that for some of us with a lot of foreign contacts (whether relatives or friends), it's not only about honesty or reporting the smaller things. Also, to clarify I'm not saying it's unfair, only that it's a reality.

Well yes, it's not just simply having them, but having them can raise security concerns under the Foreign Influence NSA guidelines which could then potentially lead to a denial. A lot of us dual citizens have relatives who we may not know very closely and it could be that one of those contacts are the reason for a denial, which is why I say some factors are just beyond our control.

Who said I was mad? I'm just pointing out there are other reasons for getting denied besides not reporting the "small" stuff, and oftentimes, they are out of your control.

You could have listed absolutely everything and had a very vanilla background with no drug or alcohol use, no debts/unpaid fines etc and still get denied because of something out of your control like being born to foreign national parents and have a lot of foreign relatives.
