Hello everyone.
Please I would like to seek for your advise. I got a job in Dubai last your in Sep 2013 and I was required to go for a medical as its a law in UAE for all expatriates. I went for my medical but after a week I was called to go back for a send medical as my chest x-ray contained an old TB scar which I had 16 years back. they took a blood sample and went for a sputum test for 3 day.After they told me to go back and see a doctor for my medical report, the doctor told me that my medical report was negative but due to the old TB scar they cant declare me fit and I was deported back to my country with a ban of 9 permanent which I dont know what it means till now. some people tell me that is a ban of 9 months and after that i will be free to go back to Dubai but some say that its a ban imposed by the immigration and its a life time ban. so am totally confused but my PRO told me that this is the UAE law so once your found with any TB old scar your deported because they assume that TB might relapse again with is not true bse my doctor told me that someone once diagnosed with TB and treated stands the same chances like someone who has never had it to get TB again so this is unfair. But my PRO advised me to try and look for a job in Qatar that the law there are different from that of UAE. so please members can I get a job in Qatar with my old TB scar which i had 16 years back?? PLEASE ADVISE ME BEFORE I MAKE MY MOVE TO QATAR. THANKS
