I got a job offer from Qatar Airways and submitted all the required docs. Just wondering how long does it takes for the whole sponsor changing process to complete. Previously i was in family status under father's sponsorship.

Thanks

Can anybody work during the transfer process at the new company as a temporary employee or something? May be its a silly question, what is PCC?

Peace Out

My previous sponsor signed all the documents in one day to have the sponsorship transferred, however, the government department I am working for took over three months to finalise the papers.

I would like to remark here, they did not only withhold my salary for three months, but also deducted additionl payments which I would have received.

Not enough damage done with that, I had to start the probation time all over again and I lost 6 days holiday as well as a great deal of money by starting before the transfere was finalised.

All the promises made before I joined about full back pay and the holidays reinbursed, did not happen.

Minimum 2-3 months if your sponsorship change is going through a PCC in qatar.
