Minsan sa cebuana if weekend or kapag offline sa bdo ko kinukuha ang remittance in cash. Pwede sa bdo makuha ang remittance kahit wala kang account. Not sure if TransFast yung tawag dun.

[hann-hann]

Lahat ba ng banks realtime ang remittance? Kahit weekends meron? Sa cebuana lhuillier kasi lagi nagpapadala husband ko kaso nakakayamot lang kase madalas offline. Ang hassle lalo na pag emergency. May BPI savings account din ako so kung realtime naman ang padala baka thru bank na lang kami.

[sofiameredith]

So pag nagpadala ang husband ko thru remittance center, ang ilalagay niya ay details of my BPI savings account here tama ba? Sorry baguhan kami sa ganitong set  up eh.

[andreil_19]

^sasabihin naman sis ng remittance center kung anong bank sila accredited.

Edit to add:usually bdo lang daw ang accepted na bank.

[sofiameredith]

^thank you sis. need ko pala mag open with BDO

Question ulit, my husband with his co-workers bale 6 sila are already in Doha, currently staying at Guest Palace hotel. Sa Saudi Embassy ang work nila as security officers, I think sa Diplomatic St. yung location non. Meron ba kayong alam na for rent na place malapit sa diplomatic st para sa kanilang anim? Hindi kasi sagot nung employer yung lodging nila but they have 150usd each as allowance for house and food, so naghahanap sila kung san sila pwede tumira near sa work location nila.

150usd/month ba yan? Dafna area. Alam ko madami dun pinapaupahan, pero kung 150usd/month...mejo mahirapan sila maghanap.

[sofiameredith]

^yes sis per month  ...

[ubermame]

^yes sis per month  ...

Sis, medyo mahirap maghanap nyan. Pero kung willing naman sila magdagdag, siguro sa 800QAR meron na silang makikitang bedspace.

[sofiameredith]

^thanks sis sa suggestion  , i'll tell my hubby to try searching within Al Dafna. kelangan makahanap na sila ngayon para bago sila magstart ng work sa Sunday naka settle na sila sa place nila.

Hi, we are going to Paris this may and our trip includes an 8+ hour layover in Doha, which entitles us to the free City Tour.  Has anyone gone on these free Qatar Airways city tours?  Sulit ba?  What sites and attractions should I look out for in Doha?

Thanks!

[debonairdes]

Hi mga sis! Do you know of any openings for accountants/auditors in Qatar?   

[latte]

HI mga sis. How long does it take to process a visit visa under the sponsorship of a husband? Thanks sa mga sasagot.

[andreil_19]

Usually ba anong concern sa medical exam or medyo strict sila when applying for family visit or resident visa?

[WandaWits]

^Yes sis, strict sila. Those who fail sa lung xray kapag may nakita na scar, which means the applicant had a history of TB or were expose to TB.

[WandaWits]

^ Yup sis strict sila. Normally those who fail sa Lung Xray kapag may scar. That means the applicant was exposed to or had TB.

[andreil_19]

^thanks sis. Wala naman prob sa xray ko(thank God) kaya lang may gallstone ako.
Can anyone recommend an agency in qatar na nagproprocess ng visa? 800 qatari kasi ang singil sa agency na napuntahan ng asawa ko. I told him nga na sya na lang magprocess as long as complete ang docs na isa-submit nya kaya lang problem nya yung nirerent nya na bahay hindi pa nakapangalan sa kanya, di rin maasikaso ng may-ari next year pa daw kaya di sya makapag submit. Sa agency kasi passport, [textspeak!] at mc lang ang ibibigay sa kanila approved na daw ang visa.
