Can I sponsor my husband?

I'm a Kiwi looking at going over to Qatar to teach. I am hoping to take my husband and two children with me. Someone told me it might not be possible for women to sponsor men anymore, and that my husband will only be able to get residency there through an employer of his own. Is this accurate? Please advise.

best way when you can put condition in your contract about your family, but it is very hard because it is not sure that your husband will get right work.So if it is possible, it is best to stay in your country with your family. Social life is very bad in this good country and better to save your family and stay with them, otherwise you can not sponsor your husband.

Yes, they can. Make it a condition for your contract, and don't come, if your company refuses. Save your family!
