Yes for sure your boy friend cannot apply for a family visa and also for a family relative one should have to be a blood realtion i mean brother / sister having same father name identity on the passport.


There is one another most feasable solutrion is as you herself explained a visit visa of one month. Normally this is issued againest the hotel booking. Do one thing asked local hotels in doha they can arrange visa for you with some token amount for visa services or book your hotel for some days and then checked out and go with your boy friend. I believe that visit visa is always issued for 1 month but it can be extended upto 6 months and i think you dont need to fly out of doha and they renew your visa. You can do this either through hotels or by herself appearing in the immigration offices.


 


Hope you understand fully and in case further clarification is required just let me know where i can be of any help.


 


Best of luck
