Does anyone knows if an husband, which is under his wife sponsorship, could work without changing the sponsorship?


And if so, what are the options?


 If anyone could guide us or provide paid services, please let me  know.


Thanks.

I came here at the same time with my husband and my company has managed everything for both of us.

Your employer should provide you support for this. Anyway you may contact also a "mandup" to guide you, but you will still need some documents from your employer.And your salary should be more than 7500 QR.

 

Good Luck.

Yes, I know  a few people who have done this but be aware that you are less likely to pass the CID check for the labour card than a female under her husband's sponsorship. sexist I know.

I've known men working for a company under the sponsorship of another. But a man under his wife's sponsorship - I've never heard of. Majority of companies would require the male to under the sponsorship of the company he's working for.My advise is get a job if it provides a good renumeration and healthy working environment, go ahead with the change of sponsorship. If not, then don't go through the transfer and look for another.

Does the law allows to a man to work without changing the sponsorship ? Do you know something about a certificate for this which is valid for 6 month only ?

I am in the same boat  i.e I am under my wifes sponsorship. Her employer has made her sign a contract stating that if I get work them her sponsorship must change to mind - BUT that is their particular rules ( they are a big Q-company) and not everyone is the same. Immigration only need to see a NOC from your wife if you are to work

And what should we ask from the labour dept ? My information are that at labour department you can do this only if you are a women under husband sponsor.

Appreciate if you could provide me more details ? (the name o the document that we should request for )

If a man is under his wifes sponsorship from what I understand he can get a letter of no objection from his wife address to the company he works for. However this would need to be checked out as I am not 100% sure!

He does not want to change the sponsorship.

 But I understood that is not allowed for a man under wife sponsorship to work. it seems that he must change the sponsor.

So my concern is if there is any legal way for my husband to work without changing the sponsorship (to remain under my sponsorship).

My colleague was under the sponsorship of his wife - I guess it is up to the company to insist on sponsorship change. you get more benefits only on changing your sponsorship though - as a company policy. I know another case too

Yes I know about women.

But what about the man ? if he is under wife sponsorship , is there any possibility for him to work without changing the sponsor?

 I understood that the rule is only for women with family RP to work without changing the sponsor. not applicable to the men.

Not certain if there is much of a difference, but there are 10s of thousands of women here under their spouse's sponsorship who work with no problems.  In fact, they get jobs faster than anyone requiring a new work visa, and usually a higher salary for providing their own...
