Hamad Housing Allowance Issue
Hi Everyone, I need some advice, I have a problem with getting my wife's accomodation allowance from Hamad, since their policy is that I should not be receiving my housing allowance from my company, and so I should provide them a letter from my company stating that I am no longer receiving any housing allowances. But the main problem is that my company would not provide me this letter, since according to them as per Qatar Labor law, I should be receiving a housing allowance, and this may put them in a liability or in short they are going against labor law. So i need some advice on how I can convince them to provide me this letter, or should I go to Qatar Labor Dept. to seek some help or advice? thanks and I appreciate for any advice you can provide.
Same problem here, any update? Were you able to get allowance?
Hi Al-mu! Were you able to avail the hmc housing? Any update? I have the same problem too.
I am receiving a housing allowance for a single status, since she recently came to work here in qatar. I would prefer to sacrifice mine since she will be having more than what I am receiving from my company. is it possible to ask for a alternate benefit instead of HA? can you elaborate? thanks for response
Dear, if you are getting housing allowance from your company, it includes for your wife & kids. Just because your wife got a job in Hamad, she cannot try for a secondary family allowance, it tantamounts to duplication of allowances for a single family. Choice is your now, who is likely to get more, one of you to sacrifice if I am right. Or your wife can ask for alternate benefit instead of HA.
