I'm the sponsor for my wife. Normally if you apply from passport immigration office they used to give 1 month visa. Then the person who is in visit visa has to undergo medical checkup in medical commision, by submiting medical report to immigration you can extend it to another 5 months (Total six monhts.)

i'm curious to know how you got the extention for 6 months! my adult son, he just turned 22 in november- only had 2 months and they would not renew again. He had to leave the country. He came back nearly 3 weeks later and stayed again for only 1 month. Please do tell how you were able to get the 6 months.

by the way, my son was sponcered by his step-dad, who is sponcered through his employer. Not sure if that makes a difference.

It makes sense to me that qatar would want to make money if they allowed relatives to stay longer for a fee, but instead you are encouraged to spend you money elsewhere for a minimum of 24 hours then you are able to return again. -scratching my head and ass at the same time on that one!
