Apparently you can if your employer agrees/supports.

But not recommended at ALL. 2,200 is too low to meet both ends. Schooling can be afforded but at quite low standards.

normal fee for kindergarten here is between 500-800 SR per month... depends on the school, But if they are providing you free schooling will be very good for your kids... about family status you have ask your sponsor either your visa is having family status or not... please check this before you leave... once you are here, it will be very hard for you to change your profession on your visa...

pls write me if you need to know more.. Thanks
