Don't accept such visa you will seriously land in trouble. And the visa is not transferable from heavy driver to professional visa.

If the immigration inspect and see your resident permit says heavy driver but you work something different. Deportation with 5 years ban. And if you come on any project visa with a good professional, the project visa as per Qatar project values for maximum 2-3 years after then you need to transfer your sponsorship to any local company. The ministry will not renew the project visa for more than 3 years.

Al Jaber & makhlouf leads projects in qatar and a contract company. 9000 Qatari riyals is not much enough once you have family. As per MOI minimum salary to bring the family is 10000 Qatari riyals. Better negotiate
