Sad to hear that, but i think it depends upon the mood of the IO because one of my friend just came here last 27th of december with no problem they just ask pocket money and travel documents and thats all, actually ive'd experience the same before last 2007 the IO hold me because im holding business visa instead of working visa the employer of mine issued a business visa for quick departure but i just change lanes and the other IO let me pass by the counter.hope to see u soon here in doha dont loose hope everything is happening for a reason.
