My Husband has a valid RP. i am not under his sponsorship.
is it possible for him to bring my sister on a family visa (which i believe can be extended for a total of 6 months?).

i was asking this because i wanted to bring my sister on board ASAP as i will give birth next month.

my husband has a higher salary compared to mine so i thought it is easier for us to have the extension if he will be the one to sponsor my sister.

Please help!
Thank you

No its not possible to him to bring your sister on a family visit visa.

Visit visa cannot be extended more then one month you must go out from the country and come back again to get another 1 month.

There is one solution go to the airport and give them the copy of you sister passport pay 200 Q.R. after 2 days you will get a family visit visa for 2 months.

It is possible, if you are lucky.

Prepare necessary documents, attach a salary certificate from the company and both of you directly go to immigration director in Garrafa main immigration. Make him understand your situation, he may approve the visa request using his discretion. You have to attach necessary documents to prove the relationship.

Have a good luck!

In normal case your husband cannot sponsor anyone until he obtain family status, i.e., his wife must be under his sponsorship.

But there is possibility, fill-up the visa form get a salary certificate from his company and directly go to Madinat Khalifa Immigration and see the immig. director. If you can make understand the situation to him he may approve using his discretion power. (Don't forget to attach your passport copy to prove the relationship).

regards.

i am under my company sponsorship.. if its not possible for my husband to sponsor my sister then i guess the best thing is to try to apply for my sister's family visit visa under my sponsorship.

Thanks for all the info.

Yes, on the current scenario, with your and your husband and your sister's passport copies to ensure and support the relationships (husband, wife and sister in law from PP names).....your husband could sponsor but need to check with immigration department for acceptance.

All the best.

thanks guys... is it not possible for my husband to bring my sister here for a family visit visa? i know i can bring my sister here for a family visit visa but the only problem is i believe that the required salary has already increased this year and i guess one needs to have around 7000 before they can apply in immigration for a family visit visa ( family visit visa can be extended upto six month). if i were to bring my sister thru qatar airways for sure it will only be until 28 days maximum only. i need my sister to stay a little longer here in qatar to assist me for my up coming baby.

if by any chance, have you ever encountered a situation where in the sister in law ( my sister is my husband sister inlaw right? ) can be brought to qatar in a family visit visa?

First u change your sponsership under your husband then u try to get six month visa I believe it is the easiest way.otherwise u can try through to Qatar Airway ways it is maximum 28 days as per my knowledge.

i think easiest way is to bring your sister on Qatar Airways visa, don't know how long you can extend that, if you are thinking about long stay then i believe you will have to go through immigration process.
