Hello moe.

A quick question, if i am already in qatar on family visit visa, to sponsor me we had to apply for family long visit visa the track number was VC when i came here but now it looks VB. If it went through isn't it the wrong application?

For getting USA documents attested the following steps are involved :

Stamping from:

Notary in USA

Secretary of State in USA

US Department of State in USA

Embassy of Qatar in USA

Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Qatar

Me again... I do not see the correlation between your husband sponsoring you to be come a Qatari Resident Vs. Authenticating your degree to work?

It is not a requirement, authenticating degrees of the "sponsoree."

The rational says my spouse is not educated..... what would you do then, can not sponsor my spouse?!!!!

I have a feeling that they were referring to your husband's degree!

Contact this local company " FuturGate.. 44315837" they will help.

one more thing.... you might want to authenticate both degrees. Do not presume that your master's will suffice. Trust me I know..... I ran into it when I first arrived to Doha, 7 years ago.

look up Express Authentication , If I recall correctly their web address is www.expressauthenticaion.com. US based company.....reach out to them via phone or e-mail. They will ask you to send them a soft copy of your degree and they will get the degree authenticated from the State Department as well as the Qatari Embassy in DC. Once authentication is complete.... they will mail it back to you. The process took approximately 2 weeks and will run you almost 300 USD.
