We are thinking of hiring a maid without using an agency. We know of someone we can bring from Ethiopia.
What are the steps we need to do to bring her?
Thanks everyone for your help. We found a family who is leaving and we were able to transfer their maid to us.
-Marins, do I NEED a maid? Of course not, I didn't need that Starbucks I had this morning either. But with a 3,000 sq. foot home with wall to wall tile and marble, a full time job, two kids, two cats and a dog- paying someone the equivelent of $400 a month is something I don't have a problem with. Especially if they are able to support their entire extended family with their salary.
What for you need a housemaid? Is so difficult to manage your home and your life ? I am very surprise to see americans end europans , educated people,thinking like that !
Hi Pathfinder0000, any chance you can share that info with me too. I've been stumped as how to go about this process. I do have approval though from Immigration to sponsor a maid.
Thanks for all the info.. The one thing that sticks out is the document that shows that both husband and wife work. How is that possible? The majority of the women I know with nannies/maids do not work. Is that an old requirement?
I'd hired the LOCAL NANNY/MAID(asian) long time back..And it cost me QR 2000 for 8hrs in a day and 5days in a week...No idea about the maids hired from out...
As far as i know, You need to get a NOC letter from your employer, which should state that they have no object to you applying for a maid and also stating your salary, and the nationality of the maid you want to get. Take this to the labour department on C-ring road (i guess), there is an application form that you need to get filled in and submit with the NOC. Will take atleast a week for the approval to come. Once you get the approval, give this to any manpower agency that brings in maids, and they will handle the rest in terms of getting the visa, flights, etc.

Why not get from Europe and pay accordingly?

I think you have to apply for a visa for this maid.
