We shall talk about the residence permit that is called the RFP, the small abbreviation is called RFP that is here in the Gulf states. It is one that is used in Oman, we have Saudi Arabia, we have Bahrain. The normal you refer to is as income or you can say depending on where you are coming from which region, maybe Oman, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, Netel Emirates is called the residence permit and here in Qatar what you call the residence permit is just that it is just a rectangular form of plastic ID and it bears your name, it will bear your nationality, it will bear your passport number, it will bear your validity, it will bear the date and the expiry date. It is just an identification number with different biometrics features that are inserted that prefer to identify you and it becomes, it actually what you call the residence permit is one that becomes one of the supporting documents that shows that you are legal to live in that country. So, after you are given, after you sign a contract with a company, now we are looking at a situation inside the country, after you sign a contract with a company, you will go for the medical, you will go for the medical checkup and after you serve the probation period of 6 months, you go for the medical checkup, after a few weeks, maybe like 2 or 3 weeks, they will get you what you call the residence permit and that is the same as the work permit, they will get it for you and you will have it. That one will have your identification number, that you back account will be supported by that, your mobile phone will be supported by that, that is how easily they can identify you and how easily they can track you and even your visa is just falling under that biometric features that are being put under that identification card. But sometimes we have a scenario, we have situations for example, let's say for example situation whereby in a particular company and your residence permit or identification number is expired and you know when your residence permit here in Qatar when it expires, it is given an allowance of 3 months for you to renew. After the 3 months without renewing, then either your employer will get a penalty, you will pay some fine for that for not renewing getting time and or once you the person, the employee, the owner of that card you got moving with unexpired ID in case it is a bad day for you, then probably they will have to question you or even take you to police for that, for that situation to explain. So it is a responsibility of you and it is a responsibility of you and the employer to see that it does not get out of, it does not get out of, it does not get out of the extension period that is being given at a particular period. But what happens is that that residence permit or what we call you can call it in karma in some other Arab countries, here we now referring to what we call the Qatar ID as we call it is called the Qatar ID. So for that one, it is normally renewed what is renewed yearly, each year they renew your Qatar ID. So depending on the contract that you have, if for example you have a contract with the company for 2 years, then every single year that goes off is when your ID will be renewed and after your 2 years it will depend on the agreement between you and your employer to decide. If you give him another, if you sign another contract with him, you probably he will renew your Qatar ID another year. If you decide not to give him the consent to renew your ID, then probably he will not renew your ID at a given period of time. So it is just the contractual agreement between the two, the employer and the employees and the employer for the renewal because he needs to ask you before he has to renew your ID at a given period. Then the situations whereby, let's say for example your 5 years still it is the same thing, it is still the same thing that it has to be renewed every single moment of year, every single year then that is what we call the renewal at a time. Then for example if you've worked, your contract is 2 years and you've worked one and one and a half years, remember that the Qatar ID, the residence permit that you have bears your visa. So if you have to cancel out or cancel out or canceling of the contract, then they also have to cancel out or you need to cancel out the Qatar ID or the residence permit that you have depending on the agreement still that you have between the employer and the employer at a period of time. That some employers they say when you cut out, when you cancel out the ID, you'll have to pay an extra charge, I'll have to charge you. If for that case you've not finished up the contract, so that will be an account. And that amount agreeable, it will definitely, sometimes it depends on you and the employer. But at this time, sometimes you do not have the say the employer will have to determine how much he has to cut for the ID. But this residence permit, the technology is just moving very fast. You can access it on your mobile, you can access it on your computer, you can access it on your laptop. You can know whether I submitted my ID for replacement or for renewal, whether the process is on or not. You can check online, you can check on the government portal that is on the Ministry of Interior, the MOI portal, you can try to login. Then it will give you the details, it will show you that your ID is in the process or your ID has never been submitted for renewal. Then you can write back to your human resource or you can write back to the manager or your manager or human resource or your company. Then you can update them or you can put them on alerts that you need to have your ID with you. Remember, your ID is part of your property and the ID that you have becomes a supporting document that carries a lot and that's what you have to show in times when it is asked for. So let's go to the tutorial, I'll show how you can try to check the status of your ID. Hi guys, thank you so much. Again I had another question, as we said this one was trying to ask about what we call the residence permit. That is the kata ID of the residence permit and he wanted to check out the status of the residence permit. This is what happens also, we shall still go to the same portal, we shall go to the same portal, we shall go to the Ministry of Interior portal, we go to search. When we go to that, we shall go to enquiry printing, we shall go to actually we shall go to the portal, we will click here. Then we shall just go to the website. As we say that we have the traffic enquiry, the visa services entry and exit permits, we don't have the exit and entry permits anymore. We shall just go straight to the residence permit enquiry. So when you click that, this is what will come. One will be RFP application and tracking printing, we have RFP renewal tracking, then permanent residence eligibility enquiry, then we have the print exceptional return permit. So for this one, if for your kata ID or your residence permit kata ID expired and you need to track whether the printing process is in progress or whether your employer submitted your kata ID, you trace it from here. For those that have expired kata ID and you lay upright or you took it back for renewal and you need to track whether the renewal is in process, you can still track it here, you will have the information. Then we have the permanent residence eligibility. This one goes as far as you need to be a permanent residence, then probably you will also check from here. I think this one is only normally applied by the employer who gives you the visa. Then we have the print exceptional return permit. This was just introduced recently where we had the COVID-19 and the COVID-19 that some of the people, the kata IDs expired when they outside the countries. So for them to return because already your kata ID is expired, you needed your employer to print for you what you call to print an exceptional return permit. And that return permit would be sent to you on your email and that is what you would use as you coming back to the country because you know some stayed so long in that country because of COVID and the permits were raising for me to be expired. So right now, right now we shall just go to, let's just go to, let's say for example you applied for the residence permit for the kata ID. We shall just go to, and you need to find out the status of it or you need to find out whether it is in process, it is in track printing or not. This one, this say for example you want to renew your kata ID, your employer took your kata ID for renewal but for quite long period it is not returned. So you can also check yourself and know whether your employer submitted your kata ID to the minutes of interior or it is not submitted. So we can just come here, you say here you just punch in your kata ID number which is, I'll just use this number for a meanwhile then we can say, okay then after that you'll have this verification code which is a 4, 4, 1, 9, okay then you press submit, okay. So now this is what will come, it will tell you there is no residence permit renewal request for this kata ID meaning that for this ID my employer has not submitted my ID for renewal. What does it mean? If your ID is already expired that means your employer is still holding your kata ID within his hands or within office. It may be for some reasons or he will submit it later but for some reason but when you go to that it will show you there is no tracking at all. It is not submitted so there is no information that's why it is giving you this information we say there is no residence permit renewal request for this ID. So what advice do I give you? Let's say for example you submitted your ID and it is now past 3 months your ID is not here to return. Then you can write your office or contact your supervisors or contact the human resource department in your company. Then you can try to inquire about your ID because normally the printing of the ID takes just one to two weeks. Your ID renewal is already printed out that you can have it back. But remember guys for the QID you need to be very careful with the QID. Why? Because you need to move with your kata ID or you need to move with your residence ID all the time. Because you may get a problem and the only way to solve out your surface they need to take that ID. Look at the airports. The supporting document that is needed is your ID. And if your ID expires past three months that means you will have to face police. They will take you to police. And your employer is also given a fine because after it is expired they give you an extension of three months of when you are supposed within the three months you are supposed to have renewed your kata ID. So you're still on the minis of interior portal. You can still track. You can still know. This is not rocket science. This is something that you can use with your phone. That is the technology we have now. It's something that can even switch from your phone. Because you have it. When you have internet access somewhere you can still track it and you can still use it and find out the information. Thank you so much guys. Hope I've answered the question rightly. Hope I've showed you the procedure. It's a very simple procedure that you can also do. Remember guys, subscribe to my YouTube channel. For those that have subscribed, thank you so much.
