Re: POLL- Have you got your ID card
We are expecting to receive our ID cards any time soon as we applied nearly a month ago, but only because my employers paid for it.

Re: POLL- Have you got your ID card
nope, we're not.
"Having the typing done" is just silly... can you imagine rocking up to whereever's meant to deny you access to something without it and go "oh, but I've got my typing done!". Try that at immigration: "passports..." "oh, I haven't quite got it, but I filled in all the forms"...
I'm with Spugsy - I really don't think that it'll be really necessary within the timescale that we're planning to remain in the UAE for. If it is, well... I'll rock up to a typing place and get my typing done! lol
