I find Qatar Living very informative.
I just hope somebody can give me an advice regarding sponsorship of my son.
Is it possible for me to sponsor my son with the follwing pointers:
1. I am earning more than 7500QR as per required salary bracket.
2. My Sponsor will provide for me Letter needed to apply.
3. I already completed the requirements the Red Ribbon things of my COllege Cert and TOR and Birth and Marriage contract.
4. My husband is in the Philippines, I am alone here and wish to bring my son here and study.
Thanks hope you can help me and your advices are much appreciated.

kgbp-0828... just try to accomplish the requirements above, have it red ribbon from the Philippines, attested at our embassy and DFA here in Qatar at the old Salata i think.

In my case my company did apply for my son's Visa, at first it was rejected but I ask for an interview at the Labor Department with the officer and fortunately they approved it.

Goodluck to you.

... has helped me everytime I had documentation or query issues which I needed to help sort issues to do with people from your own country. So don't tell me to be silent as I am talking from my own experience.

Alumnar, I'm not here to fight if you are better don't reply my post. It doesn't help anyway. I know our embassy as I went there for documentation purposes, they will can't answer you such kind of query. Your reply just add a burden to me. Just be silent, ok.

Good luck!!!

no need to go embassy, as u said really they dont know anything. everything is going to be done from labour office. as i told u, u required the approval. once u got approval from qatar labour office u can bring ur son here and then after that u have to go to immigration. there is nothing to do with immigration till u will not get approval and till ur son will not arrive in qatar.

Whcih embassy you are talking? Our embassy cannot answer this query they don't know the rules in Qatar... For stamping reason which cost a lot they can answer immediately but for quieries like they will not entertain you.

... because you will get from them all the information you need to proceed correctly with the process of sponsoring your son.

first thing u need to get letter from ur company showing how much is ur salary, which position u r working and they dont have problem that u will sponsor ur son.

second thing u need to get statement from back for ur account for 6 months.

third get salary certificate showing how much ur company is transfering ur salary to the bank.

fouth get ur labour contract copy and plus ur offer letter copy also.

fifth get the copy for electric and water bill (for the place u r staying).

then get the form from labour office to apply family visa and ask some typist to type that form and then attached all those documents with that form and submit to labour office and hopefully u will get reply within 5 to 6 working days.

all those documents are important.

I'm sorry. What I mean, what are the usual requirments I have to get ready for the Labor Department? What should I do so that I can bring my son here. I am so desperate enough. My son is crying everyday to be with me so i don't know how to approach him with this negative issues. Please advice me the best that I can do. Thanks.

please write in common language to someone can understand and give u advice. i am quite sure philippinos here in doha dont know what is the requirement for labour office. so bettre make it in english so someone who is working in government sector can guide u.

What usual are the requirements being asked in the Labor Dept.

Mga kabayan tulong naman, may mga ibang working mothers din naman na dito na nadadala nila ung anak nila even if the father is in the Philippines. What is the best way to do ba? Plesae help..

sis u can not sponsor ur son, labour office law dont allow mother to sponsor the children. ur husband should be the one to sponsor ur childrens here in doha. this is till my knowledge but if u have source in labour office then the situation can be different. bcos you need to get approval from labour office. you can ask someone to get the form from labour office and finish the requirments and submit in labour office. they will ask you for meeting in the labour office and then there are 60% chances that they will give u visa for ur son. but it will be little hard bcos labour office are very strict they might ask you why ur husband is not here in doha. so it will be complicated that time. pray and submit, GOD is only always opening windows for hope.
