Hi.I was Selected as Doctor in HMC in december 2010.Got Job offer Letter in 28th February 2011.Which i signed and Sent that Back Immediately.HR of HMC said that Entry Work Visa process will take 4 weeks.But Now its more than 5 Weeks and Still No Signs Of Visa.HR is saying that They are waiting for VISA as well.My Questions are
1-Has anybody Ever being denied Entry Work Visa
2-What is the Usual Processing Time for Entry Work Visa
3-Does being a Pakistani Increase the Processing Time
Thanks In Advance

Dear all,

1. Is it necessary to get the passport stamped from protector of immigrants Pakistan, if some body is coming to Qatar on visit visa??

2. I've heard that Qatar employment visa is stamped on passport in Qatar not in Pakistan, so what sort of document is issued to the person offered employment to proceed to Qatar?? Is that a visa visa first and then after arriving in Qatar it is converted in employment visa??

Could some one reply in detail??

Best regards

Moazzam Ahmed

But HMC will just send the Application for VISA to Ministry.I dont think,they will make any Special Request or something like that for VISA.If Visa Granted,They will Notify Us.If not,they will Simply Say Sorry

Also Among the 120 Doctors selected ,around 20-25 are pakistanis

Adnan Khana... I assume, you are supposed to join HMC in June 2011, right? You still have time, no need to worry. It normally takes some time to get the process done.

There are no more Pakistani visas available right now so either sit tight and wait or start looking elsewhere!

1. it happens very rare that visa is denied

2. its 3-4 weeks depends on government processing

3. No. being a pakistani will not increase the processing time

dont worry, u will get the visa inshallah

YES THERE IS A POSSIBILITY OF DENIAL OR REJECTION OF WORK VISA. USUAL PROCESSING TIME IS 2-3 WEEKS. BEING PAKISTANI DOES NOT INCREASE THE TIME PROVIDED THAT LABOR OR IMMIGRATION AUTHORITIES MAY NOT RAISE OBJECTION. IF THESE AUTHORITIES HAVE THE ORDERS FROM THE TOP THE PROCESS MIGHT GET DELAY UNTIL THE BAN IS LIFTED. THIS IS STANDARD FOR DIFFERENT NATIONALITIES.

WAIT! INSHAALLAH SOMETHING GOOD WILL COME OUT.
