hi, everyone

i get a business visa in here.
and my company is a new company, the boss says to me they are applying the trade licsence, after he get that licsence, he can apply work visa and Residence Permit for me?

is true? i am confused why apply the RP needing Trade liscence???

if it's so, when can i get my RP. and when i get RP, i can apply the family visa immediately?

**************
And another question. I want to bring my baby (2 years old) and my wife to here.

If I apply the family visa, at least after 3 or 4 month??
My company can apply the business visit visa for my wife,
but how can i get my baby's visa? is there any good way???

i miss them so much, so i think they can come here immediately.

Thank everybody.

oh? i am confused again, the discription on my visa is "Visa Type: BUSINESS VISIT VISA-One Visit"(one month).

this visa can not be transfer to the Work visa or RP?

and how long it can be extended? i have extended one month already. can it be extended twice? and i can stay in here total 3 month?

The company has to have a trade license and it will be alloted a number of visa it can provide for its employee, after the trade license been issued, that's the only time the company can apply RP for you, yes you can bring in your family provided you meet the required salary...as for the processing period of the family visa it sometimes take 1 to 3 months

I'm no expert on the subject (and to be honest no one is because all the rules seem to be ad-hoc)

But heres what i know.... The company has to show to the govt that it has business (or contracts) and to support or run that business, it needs to import manpower. That's how they get a quota of rp allocated.

Life for the family is perfect here.

As for how long it takes to get the family visa... 1 week if your company is run by reasonable people. But if the PRO is a sucker it could take 2 months to never

Yes, you can sponsor your family provide your visa RP is valid and must met the salary cut off required..after 3 months you can bring your family in your sponsorship. For bussiness visa to transfer RP, immigration of Qatar had set new rules regarding changing (WHAT I KNOW), It is difficult to transfer to RP. Coz, i know a friend that come here in Qatar as bussiness visa and his company doesn't transfer his visa so he return back to P.I and come back as visit visa, under his company's sponsorship.
