Investigate if this rumour is true, maybe even visit the gharrafa immigration and ask the officer if such rules are changing in dec.

If not, i wud suggest wait one more month, complete your 6 months, and give a 100% complete application rather than an incomplete one. You wud have a much better chance of getting an approval on a 100% complete application rather than a 95% complete one.

Fam residence visa is usually very diff these days, and they look for the smallest excuse to reject your application or give you a 2 month commitee meeting time.
