If you have a criminal case on your record, then yes, it can cause an issue.

You need to make arrangements to pay off your outstanding loan. Otherwise you won't be able to get a UAE PCC. If you can't get a UAE PCC then you won't be able to get PR in Canada.

IRCC equates foreign acharges with the Canadian Criminal Code and failing to pay a credit card is not a criminal offence here like it is in the UAE. As scylla said above, the issue is being refused a PCC.

Yes - this could still impact your PR application during background checks. Again, you need to make arrangements to pay off the money you owe.

Even so, a criminal charge in another country will delay his application at the very least if they check up. Yeah, in the end he may not be inadmissible, but it will cause an issue if they check with the UAE and find a criminal charge.
