Renewal of Residence

This news has been read 4912 times!

I have been in Kuwait for the past 6 years. I have a family status and my wife is with me in Kuwait … her visa expires in April 2016. Now my salary is KD 300. I heard that the basic salary for family status will become KD 400. My question is that, can I renew my wife’s residence with this salary in future.

Answer: Please remember that all expatriates who have obtained family residence for certain conditions are not affected when they go for renewal of these residences. So, you won’t have any difficulty in renewing the residence of your wife even if the ceiling for obtaining such a residence is raised, although such a move is “all talk” at the moment and doesn’t look like being enforced in the immediate future.
