I applied for the position of Classroom teacher in several schools in Qatar. I just received a call from a school principal. Later, the principal told me that in order for me to work in Qatar , is that, my husband need to first get a job in Qatar . He then can sponsor me and my kids over to Qatar. Only then, I can start working as a teacher. How far is this true?

In Qatar a wife can easily sponsor her husband and kids.

Does that mean I can get a job and bring my husband & kids with me?
Why on earth did the principal tell me the other way round then?

The school can be your sponsor and then you can sponsor your family.
but I think they changed their mind of hiring your so they came up with this excuse.
