Hi QL'ers

I am writing on this forum for my dearest friend. She had come to doha on a visit visa. Her husband is working in a pretty good company.She has been staying here for almost 7 months on visit visa.

Now during last week of her visa expiry, she got a job offer in a company(Name is hidden).They promised her shift timings which is 8 hours,6 days a week.Now whats happening is she has been there in that company for 3months, they started behaving very different with her.Its now 11-12hours instead of 8hours, no overtime, no transportation, asks here to work even on fridays.If she tells she has family commitments, they threaten her they will cancel her visa.they have not even provided her ID as well even though her medicals and finger printing is over.

My question is when she was about to join this company, her husband gave NOC for her to work there so her family visit visa got converted to work visa. What she should be doing, or if she resigns from this company, is it necessary she can come back only after 2 years ban or she can come back to qatar on a family visit visa within few months.

QL'ers i totally understand this might have been discussed before, but still can anybody suggest me some ideas, as a true friend i am not able to see their sufferings..

THANKS TO ALL Q'LERS!!!!!!!!!

no need to wait, if she resigned she can come back immediately on family visa, and in the future don't convert family visa to work visa, she can work based on the family visa with permission of labour dept.

Definitely if her company cancels her visa she has to wait for the 2 years ban in order to work again. She can come anytime on family visit visa but she can't work because of the 2 years ban. If only her husband could apply her a family resident visa then there would be no problem. But I guess her husband salary is below 10k. Besides it's not easy nowadays to get a family visa. She got no choice but to return to where she really belongs. Anyway she can come anytime on family visit visa.
