I am working in a private airline company in Kuwait as Flight attendant/ Cabin steward and my basic salary is KD 300, my wife expected delivery is in 2020 of January next year, is it possible for me to sponsor our baby or am I entitled for the exemption even I did not meet the new basic salary requirements implemented by the ministry.

Name withheld

Answer: Going through the list of professions that qualify for exemption I do not see flight attendant/cabin steward. This therefore means that it will be problematic if you want to sponsor your baby upon he/she being delivered became your salary is below the minimum KD 500 required.
