It's nice to find you here in Qatar Living Forum Uragon2012 you cheered me up and thank you Poging Juan for posting your query here. I just wanna share my present case to you guys. My father-in-law here in Qatar was applied and got an approval for a visit visa for my wife and my son under to his sponsorship and they can come starting from February 2014. I came here since January 3, 2014 but since I don't have a QID yet, I just let my father-in-law to do that for them first. My question is, can I also apply and obtain for a Family Residence Visa/or RP for them without exiting Qatar since they are under my father-in-law's sponsorship when entering Qatar within the validity period of their visit visa? After completing those required documents listed above what will be the next steps. May be you can share more in details Uragon2012? Thanks and God bless you.
