Your family will need a visa in their own right to enter Qatar. I dont think they can get a visa on arrival so they will have to apply through qatar airways and book into a hotel. The visa is valid for 2 weeks and extendable for another 2 weeks, however, after this time, they have to leave and i dont expect that your RP will be ready by then.
It is best for you to come first, finalise your RP then make an application for your family.
I am not totally sure of the documentation requirements for family permits but i would guess you would need
passport copies of wife and children
your passport copy and RP copy
Passport sized photographs
marriage certificate
birth certificates of children
salary certificate from sponsor
No Objection letter from your sponsor
Your RP will take anything from 1 week to 8 weeks (ive seen this personally) depending on how eager your sponsor is. delays are usually because of sponsor indifference. Your family application should be straightforward (within 2 weeks) then your family will be issued with a permit to enter Qatar with the intent they will apply for an RP. Then the whole process of application is done for your family when they arrive.
