Thanks ladies. We went to the Captain last week and he said almost finished.Then yesterday when husband looked, it says process been cancelled. Hence our bewilderment. We are going back today, taking an Arabic speaking friend like we did last time, to help if needed. We have already endured a 10 month court process to get this far, as eldest child's biological father refused to give consent to allow him to come, even though lives with us, so all been through emotional mill whilst waiting to get this far. Just seems a never ending process and loving being out here so much, just desperate for things to get moving, as want to be able to come full time end of school year. We did apply to schools last year, but had no luck with places, I guess because we were not here already and had no RP.

Hello wives of husbands who work for QA. My husband is a licensed engineer for QA and we are having problems getting family visa processed. Has anyone else had problems with this and if so, were HR helpful? We have come to get that and RP, but all come to a standstill. Poor hubby been 11 months on his own and we are desperate to be a family again (2 children, 13 and 3). Sorry to butt in on post, but I am stressed about moving too, as only visiting at the moment to get that sorted and check out schools and worried that visa will never be sorted. But no school without RP! As hubby not in company accommodation, surrounded by neighbours who all work office hours,no-one on shifts. Any help or words of encouragement very welcome! Thanks ladies

Thanks for your help ladies! I will ask my husband to drive us around where you have described to see what we can see (I am not driving yet). 13 year old happy that there is something, he has moaned and moaned about there not being skateparks out here, but as I pointed out to him, there are so many other things to do here that are not readily available if you live near London - canoeing in chilly Croydon in November? I don't think so!

Hello ladies I am new to Qatar and have been here 8 days. Have joined my husband after 10 months apart and I am loving the warm weather ( I am from the UK). Our 13 year old son is crazy about skateparks (he rides a scooter). I have seen skateboards in the sports shops, is there a stakepark or areas good for skateboarding in the city? Does anyone have a child who is into this hobby too? He is not in school yet, so we don't know any other kids as our small compound only has little kids under 5. Many thanks for your help.
