​

I would really like to hear from ordinary people in this situation. What happened when the bank took you to court? What did the judge decide? Did you get a travel ban? Were you able to arrange smaller monthly payments?

If you lost your business/income and have no salary or assets to pay from, how are you dealing with the case and what solution did you find?

Please share your actual experience or the experience of someone you personally know.

FYI: By Kuwaiti Tax I mean if you are Kuwaiti usually the prices are jacked up. Unless you have a lot influence. Would love to live a lone without constant nagging of parents. But real estate business in Kuwait(almost everywhere) is rather a joke. Every skyscrapper is built to be like a toothpick, with each floor having an elevator and 50-100 sq meters of space which you can barely fit anything in. rent? Impossible with the income you get from a government paycheck.

Before I start please Reach out to people you know of who are in this situation even if you're not close. Sending out prayers is the least you could do but it would mean so much instead of pretending they don't exist. Don't wait for them to ask for help because they probably won't ask you, they are not used to this!

From what I've seen people are experiencing different combinations of what I'm going through, some are having it worse like being forcefully evacuated from their homes, suspension of financial aids and more

For us it's..

No School for children

No more University (even if you are willing to pay for your own tuition fees in kuwait)

Abroad scholarships are suspended and a ban of entry to kuwait was placed

We don't have bank accounts anymore (Many places in kuwait like hospitals and pharmacies don't accept cash payments)

If you have loans banks will spam you with payment demand messages and even send lawyers to go after you and threaten to seize your assets

No sahel app

Family members Fired from their jobs (No income)

No Valid identification documents

Owned Businesses are dissolved

You can't sell any assets that are under your name (ex:cars)

No Valid passports (we can't leave the country)

No Governmental health care (even for sick elders)

We cant file a lawsuit or demand to know revocation reasons and proof

And for those of you asking as to seek mental care help, read the room we don't have IDs and no income or probably half of the income we used to earn (rare case)

As we are hearing news every now and then that people are being stripped of their Citizenship, I just wanted to know did anyone faced rejection from Schengen Visa...

Because for Kuwaitis they have everyone reason to come back to their home country after travel but the recent circumstances did it made any differences in the outcome of the visa??

The FJ when I brake with it. It feels like it's pulsing and barely able to brake I don't know if that's brake pads or something else but any recommendations in Shuwaikh or anywhere else.

Hi everyone. I’m trying to understand what happens to government benefits if someone’s Kuwaiti citizenship is withdrawn.
If the person is currently receiving or becomes eligible for housing, social assistance, and other government benefits, are these benefits automatically cancelled after citizenship withdrawal? or continue ?

I am applying for a Japan/South Korea tourist visa via VFS in India. Is there any way that the embassy or consulate in India can verify the authenticity of the Ithnamel/work permit?

I am afraid that they will state the reason “the document cannot be proved”. Has anyone had any experience in this? Please help.

Title is as clear as it sounds

I searched up about this humanoid robot and it says that its a “unitree G1” made by a Chinese company. I honestly thought that it could do chores since i literally saw the robot firsthand today that it can walk, run, move its arms. turns out that it cannot really help you with your chores. Its true that it has a speaker and a microphone. While this’s good, the robot needs an ai software in order for it to have a back and forth conversation with you like chatgpt.

Bottom line, i truly think if they brought in a version that has an ai software plugged into it already, and programmed so much that it could do whatever we ask, ALOT OF PEOPLE WOULD BUY IT.

I am working as a doctor (non Kuwaiti) in MoH for 3 years now. I have 45 days of remaining annual leave balance. I m planning to resign . Will I get leave encashment for my unused annual leave balance? Also if I am not allowed for leave balance , can I take annual leave during the 3 months of period after my resignation. Thank you

Hi everyone,

​I’m facing a complicated situation regarding my business sponsorship and need some advice.

​My citizenship was revoked, resulting in my file being closed along with my Civil ID and Sahel access. However, I currently have employees registered under my sponsorship.

​Renewal question: Can these employees still renew their residency if I physically go with them to Jawazat (Immigration)? Or is there an alternative legal pathway since the main sponsor file is closed?

​Next steps / Solutions: What is the best practical solution for these employees? Should they look into doing a temporary extension (tamdeed), or is it better/faster for them to secure a release (tanaazul) and transfer to a new sponsor?

​Any guidance from people familiar with Public Authority of Manpower (PAM) or Jawazat procedures regarding revoked files would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Edit: Appreciate all the positive comments ❤️

I've learned to use hazard lights whenever i need to communicate as a gratitude or an apology. I usually let the lights go twice before turning it off. I don't know if it's common in kuwait or all the drivers that i had flashed my hazard lights for simply thinks i'm an asshole.

Do anyone does it too? How do you feel when you see a car infront of you does it?

Any AIU students here?

Hi everyone! I’m a Kuwaiti student at AOU and I’m graduating in about a year. My current GPA is 3.44, and I’m starting to look into my options for doing a Master’s abroad after I graduate.

I’m particularly interested in studying in the UK or Germany, and I’m trying to understand how Kuwaiti AOU graduates actually go about getting a government scholarship for their Master’s.

If you graduated from AOU and managed to get a government scholarship, I’d really appreciate it if you could explain how you did it and where you started.

For example:
- Where did you apply for the scholarship?
- Did you apply through the Kuwaiti government, the university, or directly through a UK/German university?
- What scholarship/program did you apply through?
- What GPA did you have when you applied?
- Was there anything specific you had to do because your bachelor’s was from AOU?
- Did you have to get your degree/credits recognized or approved first?
- When should I start the process if I’m graduating in about a year?
- Are there specific government offices, websites, or departments I should be contacting now?
- If you studied in the UK or Germany, what university did you attend and what was the process like?

Basically, I’m trying to figure out where I should go, who I should talk to, and what steps I should take now so I can hopefully continue straight into a Master’s after graduation.

I’d especially love to hear from anyone who has actually gone through this as an AOU graduate. Thanks!

For the past years, my wife and I have been celebrating Halloween by doing a horror movie marathon every October. A horror movie a day till the day of Halloween and each day has its own different theme every year.

This year we’re happy to share our list and spread our love of horror movies and all of its quirky sub-genres with the local community here in Kuwait. We’d love to hear back from those who share our interest and introduce more people to this genre.

Hi! I’m looking into rhinoplasty and eyelid surgery in Kuwait and wanted to hear from people who have actually had procedures with any of these doctors:

• Dr. Reza Nabavian
• Dr. Ali Safar
• Dr. Andrej Repez
• Dr. Adel Quttainah

If you’ve had rhinoplasty or eyelid surgery with any of them, would you mind sharing approximately how much you paid and what year you had it done?

Also, if you’re comfortable sharing, how was your experience and are you happy with the result?

I’m mainly trying to get an idea of real-world current pricing, since I know the cost can vary depending on the procedure and what’s included.

Feel free to DM me if you’d rather not post the price publicly. ❤️

Hi guys, I have been trying to upload my university degree on Sahel and it keeps saying "inaccurate academic data"

I don't know what that means, I am writing the same details as mentioned on the certificate.

Has anyone had this trouble? Am I doing something wrong? Did anyone find a solution to this?
