I understand that when you join you are automatically placed in company accommodation (thus not getting the housing allowance) and you have to apply to leave so you can find your own place. This can take many months depending on circumstances.
Can anyone confirm this, or add any more information?
Thanks in advance,

yeah apparently now all new joiners are automatically sent to company accommodations and what I heard that the waiting list to leave the company acc. Is pretty long some I know been waiting for more than a year and unfortunately they have 2 waiting lists one to leave the company acc. And the other to move to a different location in Doha but still in company acc.
unfrotuantely you can only be listed in 1 list so you need to choose which one.
Rumors the only way to leave the company acc. And get your housing allowance is to buy an apartment and show the proofs but again I am not 100% sure.
