Falcon as far as I am concerned.

* Since she is coming on a visit she must provide support that her husband is in Qatar, otherwise she "could" be rejected. Ask your cokmpany HR to help you on this.

* For permanent visa you both have to set up for medical exam, finger printing, as well as copy of passport pictures and the corresponding fees in order to go from visit visa to sponsored residency (in this case you will become the sponsor)

* No she can not work on visit visa, she can try to work once you are sponsoring her residency here in qatar. In the meantime if she gets a job proposal or formal employment she could arrange to have VISA TRANSFER from your soponsorship to the company employing her (this one is up to you guys, more paperwork will be asked/needed)

* For last question I have no idea....but maybe consulting with other USA citizens already here in qatar or directly in the US Embassy

Best of luck....
