So I got an offer to teach at a school in Kuwait and I really want to go, but there is one important issue I have. So my wife recently completed her immigration from Pakistan to the USA and holds a green card. So my question is can my wife join me in Kuwait even though Kuwait has a ban on Pakistan visas, Could I request a special entry or request?

If you get your resident in Kuwait there is no problem to bring her to kuwait. You just need to stamp the marriage paper from Kuwait embassy in USA or Pakistan

No.
If she has Pakistani passport, she can not get visa.
If she has american passport/residence, she can get the visa.

Best way, see if she can get visa on arrival if she is travelling from America.
Any Airline can help you on this.

Thanks,

unfortunately my friend the sure answer is "no", if you refer to this question here you will find that as of yesterday the ban on Pakistanis unfortunately is still in effect; Kuwait will not recognize "green card" unless it is translated into a passport, now according to the Arab Times legal dept., you can come to Kuwait and attempt to sponsor your wife to come to Kuwait, but it will be completely case-by-case and might be rejected.
