Hi every one...
I want your advice regarding my employment here in qatar. I entered here in Qatar with a visa of draftsman valid for 3 months, though my actual contract profession was Quantity Surveyor. Now my entry visa expires and the company want me to sign a contract w/ profession of Painter, salary is still the same, just to process my residence permit saying they will change it in future. My concern is that, I have a plan of sponsoring my family in near future. My question is that, can a painter sponshor family visa? Or how easy/hard the process of changing visa profession.

HELLO,

FIRST OF ALL YOU MIGHT NOT SPONSOR YOUR FAMILY ON PAINTER (LABOR CATEGORY) VISA. THE COMPANY CAN CHANGE IT LATER, BUT IT REQUIRES RATIFIED TESTIMONIALS AND ALOT OF OTHER PAPERS. TRY TO CONVINCE THEM WITH YOUR ACTUAL PROFESSION, P.R.O. CAN DO IT NOW

THANKS

Try to get them to write the correct profession now to avoid any future issues with changing title, as that also requires quite a bit of paperwork
