Family visa to RP UK passport

Amingjuan
By Amingjuan

Hi, I am on UK passport with valid Qatar ID. Have been here since June 26.

My wife and baby have Philippines passports and are on family visa, the first month of the family visa is almost expired and i will extend their visas soon. Medical exams are completed and Medical Commmission Results say both are FIT.

My questions are, 1) if i only extend their family visit visa can they then exit and re-enter without any probllems whilst their extended family visas are still valid?

2) what are the chances that I could get them a RP at this point in time? I have 2 months bank statements, and a telephone bill in my name, and my salary is easily above the QR 7000 thresh hold

I hope someone can answer me soon as i need to get my wife and daughter back to Philippines ASAP due to a family bereavement

Thanks in advance for the advices!

you can apply for multiple entries on the family visit visa. Another rentery is allowed on the same visa. you would have to pay for it at immigration and write on the application the number of days they will be out of Qatar.

Hi Both, thanks for the replies.

We do have a very good mandoop who so far managed to get me to exit and re enter after fingerprinting and before my RP was issued without having to repeat anything, then he managed to bring my family on a tourist visa and then changed them to family visa without them having to exit.

Problem is trying to get him to actually start the work! Once he does he is pretty good.

I thought that maybe once they had the 5 month extension to their family visa then they could exit and re-enter? How possible do you think that might be to arrange, mandoops aside? My wife's best friend just got killed in a military helicopter crash back home and she really is distraught and it would be helpful if the Qatari govt could sort her out even a single exit / re entry.

Thanks again

Family visit visas are usually SINGLE ENTRY visas. You can check this on the visa printout.

Issuing a Resident permit RP requires time. It depends when they will be leaving Qatar.

Why don't you try submitting the RP visa while they are away?

Hope this helps...

you need to re-pply them for a visit again. IMO, check what others would say!Second, yes, you can try to apply for a residence visa as long as you have all the documents needed at LABOR department.  You can ask your mandoob for the proper processing, your mandoob can help or assist you more.
