Monthly Rent (1 Bedroom, clean, semi-furnished, preferably in a apartment complex with security)
Phone - mobile (monthly plan)
Other utilities per month: Electricity, internet
Laundry (is it standard in apartments?)
Transportation: Is public transportation available, and what is the fare (per Km?). What is per KM taxi fare?
Groceries: Approximate cost for 1 person/month (milk, bread, vegetables, fish, chicken, spices, etc.)
Medical insurance/month for 1 person
And a general question: where does one apply for the medical insurance (any websites for the insurance provides?).
I'll appreciate any info. folks can provide.
Thanx, Martha.
Hi Soniya, my gross salary is $85000 CAN (303450 QAR) without any additional benefits (After taxes I would have a little more than 1/2 this amount as net salary). Hopefully that gives you some idea. I went through a lot of messages on this forum but so far did not comes across links to medical insurance providers. Any information based on your experience would be helpful. Thanks a bunch.
