Family Visa extension
By jebinm2001 •
I have query regarding the extenstion of Family Visa.
My wife is having permenant visa, and right now she is in India. she went on 29-Mar-2012 and her visa is valid upto Mar-2013.
she is planning to come back only on end of this year(Dec-2012).
I heard that as per Qatari rule one cannot stay outside for longer than 6 months.
So kindly let me know what is the procedure to extend her date of return? I mean extend the Visa.
Thanks in advance.
Dear all first of all thanks a lot for your valuable information.
let me ask you one more thing. when exactly I wanted to go immigration and pay 500 as penalty? before 6 month (means this month?) or just 1 week before she come back to Doha? (means in December)
regards

Yes better to go to the immigration department before 6 months and apply for extension and pay 500qar.
if she is under your sponsorship she can come back but you need to pay the penalty of 500riyals..Go to Airport Immigration(departure area)ask for the application form and pay the said amount in just 1 day you will get it.
yes its 6 months only after that they will cancel the visa,no extensions. Let her come here for 1 week then go back to india.
