hey FA. the link that you have mentioned and the information is old i guess. I have in the past extended the visit visa for my family for upto 6 months. Not sure if the same is still valid now.

Expatriate workers may bring their family members to Qatar on a Family Visit Visa. The visa is valid for one month, and can be extended for up to six months for immediate family members and three months for other relatives. Visa holders who wish to apply for an extension must undergo a medical check.
