Wasim, Please clarify if you are asking about visit visa or residence visa. If it is visit visa do as recommended by nath and if you are thinking of extending the stay of your family outside Qatar for more than six months (RP) then I think they are extending it only for 15 days.

Hi, Just go to Immigration at Graffa and get the form filled up for renewal. Approach counter and they will directly renew the visa.

I was told that Six months extension is no more and the maximum extension you will get is 15 days.
