Hi all my Qatar Living friends,

I am working in a private firm in qatar, my profession is "technical concern" in my work ID card and my basic salary is morethan enough to sponsor my family .
My contract agreement states that fully furnished family accommadation will be provided by company.
My question; is it a matter the profession that in my ID card to sponsor my family unless otherwise I need to change my profession as Iam an engineer.

Thanks for all

4000 is enough to apply for family visit visa.but your husband has to confirm with his company mandoop whether his profession in the Qatar ID card is allowed to get family visit status or not.or else you have to come two more times on tourist visa, its bit expensive.

nishant is right..

sometimes PROFESSION mentioned in the QATAR ID does create hindrance if it is not apporved by the immigration authorities in order to sponsor family...

Yes. sometimes it becomes a matter of profession. One of my friend is an accountant but was given a technician visa as that was the only one available with this company. it took him about 6 months to get an RP for his wife.

the general feeling here is that the higher the profession, the more the salary you will get.

even if you are an engineer but with a technician visa, you will be considered a technician when you apply for your family visa.

try to get ur profession on your visa changed and secondly, try to go and submit your labour contract to the labour department asap.
