if you get your family member under your sponsor ship you can visit the GPO it will be done at the quickest.

the immigration might extend the visit visa for a month or so depending what fell like...but if you need a help at the GPO .. give me a shout my friend works ther.

It can be extended...... depends on the mood of the person in the immigration........ they can extend it for a maximum of a month if you are lucky. You will have to give the reason and the ticket details....

The visa is valid for one month. However, relatives who wish to stay beyond one month may undergo a physical examination within the first 72 hours of arrival to apply for an extension.

The visa can be extended to cover a maximum of six months only (five extendable months for immediate family members and two months for second-degree relatives).

Have you cleared the medical... If yes, then go to main immigration at gharafa, take the passport, no need for the medical certificate, go to booth no 4, take a coupon and inshallah visa will be extended in 5 mins for 200 QAR per month.....
