I came to Qatar in early Jan on biz Visa. My Work Visa was applied on 2nd Feb and got approved on 16th. I was anxiously waiting 4 de medical/finger print process & came to know that on 15th a new rule was passed for getting medical appointments thru online system. Yesterday my PRO applied online for the medical appointment and told me that it is fixed for 21st March.
Damn when will my finger print / stamping / family visa application all will be done. The rules here really suck big time !!!

Any one knowz how to get the medical done quicket/Wasta/etc ?? Plz advise as I need to get my family here asap & also schools are starting in early April.

From few source I understood that still there are lines in the medical centre and if I go there early morning 4-5am and stand in the line I could get my medical done. But I still need to confirm that and tomorrow very early morning I will check the situation and possibilities !!
