Entry Visa Process
Hi everyone,
I've been accepted for a role at HMC and have been told my entry visa is a 3-8 week process.
It's been almost 8 weeks now and I'm concerned it will take much longer, especially hearing some of the stories here (6 months to get a visa!)
Should I be concerned and expect the process to take much longer?
Hey Blaqdog did you finally get the entry visa yet?
Just wondering cuz im the same boat too, still waiting...
which kind of visa did HMC applied for? is it visit? business? or working visa?
Thank you for your responses.
It has now been over 3 months and is getting very frustrating! I am being kicked out of my current job because they can no longer afford to keep me here any longer.
3 months for an entry visa and still counting! I can only imagine what more things I have to do before they will fly me to Qatar.
Is this normal? Every story I hear, it seems the maximum one has to wait is 4 weeks for an entry visa!
Individual visa shouldn't take as long. I think if you have already signed the contract then there is nothing to worry about. Relax, HMC is not going to cheat you. They might have applied for a bunch of visas, hence the delay.
Good luck.
I have pretty much given them everything they need. I have already been offered the job and signed the contract. I was told they are sorting out my entry visa which is a 3-8 week process, and when this is sorted they would organise my flights to come to Doha.
So I'm really not sure how it all works from here...
..entry visas may be finished in one day..that is, if the person doing it has no other things to do..but, visa issuance to an applicant has so many requirements..are you sure it is only the visa you're waiting for..?..have you received a job offer..?..as i previously stated, mine took only a week ( if i remember it right)..and then there was a mistake on the name printed..and then it took them less than a week to have it corrected...
