Filipina expat lives in Dubai without passport, visa, job for 8 years

She adds: "I admit I made poor decisions but there were also circumstances beyond my control. Despite all of these, I still believe everyone deserves a second chance."

 

Michelle said she did not take advantage of the last amnesty in 2013 because her kids were too young to be away from her.

"This upcoming amnesty is our second chance. We definitely want to legalise our stay here. Both my kids were born in Dubai. They know no other country but the UAE. It would be very difficult for us to go back to the Philippines and there is no viable source of income that would be available for us there," she remarks

"If given the chance, we would really want to stay in the UAE. We hope that the authorities would allow us through the amnesty program," she adds.
