Combined Salary To Sponsor Parents On Visit Visa

With regard to the new rule for visit visa for parents, we are aware of the minimum KD 500 salary requirement. I and my wife both work in Kuwait with a salary cap of KD 450 and KD 270 respectively as per work permit. Is it possible to apply for a visit visa for parents showing our both salary caps? If so what will be the procedure?

Name withheld

Answer: Unfortunately, the ‘coupling of salaries’ of husband and wife to attain the magical figure that will enable them qualify to sponsor a relative or relatives on visit visa has since been discontinued. With this explanation, neither you nor your wife can sponsor your parents since you don’t earn the required minimum of KD 500 monthly salary and the rules don’t also allow the coupling of salaries in this regard.
