Transfer of iqama from job visa to family visa

Posted by sameer ahmed on 5/14/2024 12:53:20 pm

hello iik friends,

i want to have some information regarding transfer of iqama from 18 to 22.

i am engineer by profession but i don''t have kuwait society of engineers (kse) card because of the accrediation issue which most of the indian engineers are facing since 2018.

because of this reason my company changed my designation from engineer to some purchase mandoop. my salary is more than 800 kd.

recently my wife got a teaching job in good school & her school want to transfer her iqama from family visa to job visa.

my question is, if in case in future my wife want to quit the job and i have to transfer her back from 22 to 18, during this process does the residency dept. will
transfer it easily or will they create any issues? because i came to know that the residency dept. is not issuing new family visa''s to those whose
degree is not matching with their designations even through if they had more than 800 kd salary.

if any body have done this recently or had any information, please share.

thank you.

MDS Dentist to work in Kuwait

Posted by f on 5/13/2024 2:36:44 pm

dear all,

i have a few queries. please assist with the following:

1. regarding the new rules in kuwait, what is the procedure for mds doctors to work in kuwait? i have heard that a prometric exam is required. can anyone who has completed this or recently obtained an mds license provide advice on the entire procedure? specifically, where can the prometric exam be taken in kuwait, and are there any centers available to assist with study materials, registration and conducting the exam? the individual in question is a resident in kuwait with a dependent visa (22).

2. can an mds doctor with 2 years of work experience post-pg apply for a license, or will clinics offer any job opportunities?

3. what is the salary range typically offered by clinics for this level of experience?

Regarding electricity Dues coming up after years

Posted by sat27 on 5/11/2024 7:28:44 pm

dear all,
i had gone for my car passing last thursday at daman car inspection and just before completing the process the guy at the counter told me that some electricity dues are pending and asked me to clear it from mew. i was quite surprised since electricity is part of the rent that i am paying to the landlord and has been so for the past 6 years. hence logically no electricity meter in my name. i am unable to see the dues in the mew website after putting in my old meter number.
also my residence renewal was done by my sponsor just 10 days back and normally all pending dues are required to be settled at this time.
in my previous flat the electricity meter was in my name and i had cancelled the meter from my name and even received the deposit from mew more than 6 years back. hence request to kindly clarify :
1. have any of you have faced similar issues where mew dues are getting reflected many years later.
2. how can i clear these dues? is there any specific mew office for enquiring and clearing old dues.
3. in case the dues are unreasonably high, any way we can contest these dues (i used to regularly clear these dues when meter was in my name).
request experience people to kindly clarify

thanks in advance

Cancellation of Kuwait Visa

Posted by an on 5/11/2024 2:11:48 pm

hi,
currently i am working in a private company as mechanical engineer. i came to kuwait through factory visa (i was not knowing earlier). now i found a better opportunity in another company. unfortunately i am not able to transfer locally because the new company has only project visa and transfer from factory visa to project visa is not allowed in kuwait.

the new company had agreed to provide new visa for me. in this case i have to cancel my current visa along with my dependent visas. also my passport have validity upto october 2025.
please help me by clarifying my doubts:
1. will my civil id number be changing when i come back on new visa?
2. i got licence very recently. in case of visa cancellation will my licence be cancelled? can i get back my licence after residency stamping?
3. i have kse membership upto 2025. will my membership be active when i come back on new visa?
4. is there any issue to get dependent visa even i can meet the salary requirement. i heard that there are some issues with new work permit format and because of that dependent visa is difficult to get.
5. is there any chance i can transfer locally from factory visa to project visa.
6. is there any chance i can cancel my visa without cancellation of dependent visa. they have valid visa till 2025. i am expecting to return back in kuwait by august 2024.

the sad thing is i resigned from the current company without knowing the factory visa issue.

i thank everyone in advance for spending your time for me.

Transfers via crypto / Coins / Tokens / Airdrops etc

Posted by azat sabir on 5/9/2024 8:18:07 pm

hello community

tried to find any actual thread related to crypto but recent one was dated 2021 so..

let’s start to discuss it here

as for me:

1. i use some crypto platforms (binance / bybit) to send money back home as banks or “money send” services charge too much. i started to do it here after received civil id and if you have any questions you’re welcome.

2. as for investments/savings i’m kind of noob and trying to do my first steps. now i’m trying to catch a chance to get some airdrop (like notcoin that going to be listed soon) and participate in growing hamstercombat community ( by the way here’s my referral: https://t.me/hamster_kombat_bot?start=kentid5772543233 )

if you have smth to share please go ahead!:)

Absconding Case in Shoun

Posted by bilal hussain on 5/7/2024 2:53:45 am

dear iik friends,


i just want to ask for a favour to know more about absconding case filed by my employer in shoun.

actually i filed a case in shoun for the release and later after one month of my case my employer filed absconding.so it''s it''s been 15 days back only you can say they put me as absconder.


my question is can i exit from kuwait without any problem at immigration because the absconding must not be in the system of moi as it''s just few days back done by employer or it will reflect in the moi system too.because i heard if i am not wrong that only after 60 days it goes to moi system automatically.


can any one guide as my case is still in shoun running.
