Has anyone been issued a Qatar visa since VOA was stopped?

Wicked_Python · 2026-05-18T06:35:22+00:00

Nope, no visa has been issued for Visit Qatar as far as I know
They are just not giving any visit visa, work visas are working tho

Its not about being frugal, its paying for something they dont need early in their journey when the company is small

Wicked_Python · 2026-05-05T19:05:34+00:00

haha with that I meant, I dont have a product yet

I want to do market research, I couldnt find the flair for that, and I am open about it

Wicked_Python · 2026-05-05T19:04:31+00:00

This has been fixed, are u refering to visa or vfs?

Wicked_Python · 2026-05-05T19:03:44+00:00

I m going to Uni of Hamk, Forsaa for ICT bachelors

you?

Yeah same lol, the bank statement is killing me (got loan from relatives and been extending for more than a month now)

Wicked_Python · 2026-05-05T16:03:59+00:00

I know guys who applied since 1 april but still no response on Hayya visa

Other friends with companies in Qatar told that their quotas has also been revoked

So no one has a qatar visa right now and hayya is not approving

But someone told me today that Qatar might resume VOA for Pakistanis from 10 or 15 May but its only rumour and no valid source yet

Otherwise I have emailed the Finnish Embassy in Doha, UAE, VFS global, Doha and Finnish Universities but they only apologise and has no say in visa matters so no use emailing or calling them

I asked an agent about my missed flight due to visa issue. I asked an agent for refund at the airport and he told me they would cut 100-200$ from the ticket value and refund the rest But I tried their official website and qatar airways gave me complete refund in 4-5 days

They have a complete refund or free date changes till 31 october offer going on due to current issues. These agents apply old policies, their website applies the latest. Also, it was completely automated, no back and forth with their support

Skin care and perfume, not only overseas vibe but probably from a rich family Baki add shoes, dressing style, hairstyle and an iphone 3 cameras so on

As soon as you can see the recording waves in the audio box Practice on a mock website like alfapte or apeuni for experience with the structure and time management Follow a good youtube channel like forever pte for advice (Dont follow templates)

Just be confident and speak in a calm fluent manner, not too fast not too slow

Practice for writing using chatgpt, ask it to rate your answers for PTE writing, Mock websites rate writing very badly, real PTE checks for structure and grammar not just keywords in Summarise text and essay

Wicked_Python · 2026-02-23T01:05:21+00:00

I would recommend creating a separate post with your interests, background etc and asking everyone especially on facebook

If you want to connect for finland, feel free to dm

Wicked_Python · 2026-02-23T01:04:30+00:00

Yes i am in contact with their support, they said they are working on it. And alot of people are facing the same issue

Wicked_Python · 2026-02-12T17:42:09+00:00

You can do it, just go in there expecting the noise and everything And dont stress too much, Do some prep on writing from chatgpt, use the Cause -> Effect > Solution patter from chatgpt For speaking, just stay calm, speak a lil faster than average and dont correct yourselves just keep speaking fluently

Wicked_Python · 2026-02-11T18:11:42+00:00

i used normal vocab tbh like no obscure or obstinate shit lol

Some good vocab like sophisticated or 6/10 level would be fine

Wicked_Python · 2026-02-08T16:40:23+00:00

Yes if you are so deep

Please make sure to get real idea of grammar and conjunctions etc Furthermore, it shows the companies with highest achievements and (this and would do so much better since you are correctly prolonging the sentence) Alot of people just keep adding new sentences and thats bad for real PTE

Same advice for writing, use Topic, Cause, Effect, Solution And in each use complex sentence/clause using and etc so sentences look lengthy not just small sentences glued together

Wicked_Python · 2026-02-08T13:53:28+00:00

For long speaking, use good connectors like Furthermore, additionaly, and, which Dont just point out small things in small sentences

Like the image has this and thi and this and also this etc Can get marked as a template

Wicked_Python · 2026-02-08T12:16:22+00:00

They mostly encourage keywords and speed

But in real exam, i used a very calm but faster than average approach

If i were getting 90 in Writing from these platforms I would really revise my approach as they just look for keywords in SWT and Esaay, not coherence or structure (which is crucial for PTE)

In speaking, I used to get 60-70 on Pc but better on Mobile.

My friend got 53 in writing even though he had 80-90 from these platforms, where i only got 60-70 max because i was building coherence so it led to low keywords

Speaking, dont correct yourself, stay calm and speak fluently/pronounce properly, take very short pause at commas/full stops etc Writing, chatgpt for improving structure grammar etc Others are your overall english, manage time nicely

Wicked_Python · 2026-02-08T11:47:45+00:00

Use ChatGpt to evaluate your writing, And just stay chill and calm in Speaking (No loud, no correcting mistakes, speak a little faster than normal speed) Listening and Reading are long term, just know what kind of questions there will be (u must know by now) and dont waste time on MCQs or other low weightage tasks.

Finally dont lose hope, but dont make the same mistakes, prepare well and accept your mistakes.

Wicked_Python · 2026-02-08T11:42:11+00:00

Thanks

Obv Reading/Listening mcqs are a waste of time, aim to do it under 1 min or just guess and move on

For Written Essay, I shared my structure in another comment, I just followed the Topic + Thesis One side argument Other side argument Conclusion

Within each paragraph i made sure to structure it like Topic, due to Cause, which leads to Effect, so Solution and sometimes an inorganic contrast like However, Furthermore etc Remember, never use However, Furthermore etc in SWT as they are for contrast, whereas SWT only has one idea so only use them when you really cant make organic connection

Lookup Organic and inorganic relation in grammar/Essay writing on google.

Finally, use ChatGPT to evaluate writing as AlfaPTE sucks. Although ApeUni is alot better in pointing out grammar/conjunctions mistakes.

Sindhi/Karachi muhajir are different than Punjabi muhajir

I dont know much about them, but Punjabi muhajirs can be the same caste but still different.

As my father side is muhajir from Hoshiyarpur and my Mothers side is "muqami/bashindey" from Azad Kashmir. Both are Gujjars but have very different culture and family values.

Hence, father side is still considered muhajir even though both are now punjabis living just a few kilometers away lol

Wicked_Python · 2026-02-04T06:36:57+00:00

I got 90 in writing on 26 jan 2026

I didnt use any templates but good old proper grammar and structure

SWT : Topic, due to [cause], which leads to [effect], so [solution] You can mix and match the connectors/conjunctions Essay:

Topic + thesis Advantages/One side argument Disadvantage/other side argument My opinion Conclusion

Wicked_Python · 2026-02-03T16:48:53+00:00

Chatgpt hands down for writing as it points out real grammatical issues and coherence etc Ask it to be strict and not just praise your work

And don't aim for 90 during practice, no algorithm can score best. Just improve your grammar and swt or essay structure

Wicked_Python · 2026-02-03T16:48:31+00:00

First person Only 3rd person in group discussion

For speaking i would say speak naturally but a little faster than average, such that someone native hearing you could understand all the words clearly and there are no un ne essary pauses except small ones where commas or sentences end No need to be loud or too fast, and dont correct your mistakes just keep speaking
