Residency Tracker questions
Which documents can I track?βΌ
Emirates ID (UAE), Iqama (Saudi Arabia), residence visa (any Gulf country), passport, driver licence (RTA in UAE, Absher in KSA) and tenancy contract (Ejari in UAE). Add only the ones that apply to you.
How does the reminder schedule work?βΌ
You set the warning windows per document. Our defaults are 90, 30 and 7 days before expiry β you can change any of them. Reminders fire as local push notifications and also stack in your in-app inbox.
Why does PocketSpend warn about passport expiry?βΌ
Many Gulf visa systems refuse renewal if your passport expires within 6 months. We warn at the 9-month mark so you have time to renew the passport first.
Does it integrate with government services like ICP, GDRFA, Jawazat or Absher?βΌ
Not directly β those agencies do not offer public APIs. PocketSpend stores the dates you enter and reminds you to renew on time. The actual renewal still happens through the government portal or typing centre.
Is the Residency Tracker free?βΌ
It is included with Personal Premium ($7.99/month) and above, with UAE and KSA users getting it enabled by default.
