Dear Experts,

My parents are here in Qatar and its been 3 weeks now. Last week , the medical test for both mother and father was completed.

After i received the SMS from Metrash that the medical result is OK , i went to Gharafah immigration to renew my parents family visa for 5 months ( for each one of them). The officer in counter told me that it is possible to renew for only 2 months ( for each of them). When i asked for the remaining three months , he did not say anthing.

Can anyone tell me Is this the normal renewal proccess for parents visa ? Because i have seen from many forums that the familiy visa can be extended to 5 months in one shot ( after the medical test) and then 1 more months.So for total 7 months , they can stay in qatar.

Kindly advice.

My parents are here in Qatar now in family visit visa, we extending the visa every month and now we got one more month extra also. So you go to renew the visa after two months. It will be done.
