Profession : Labour. Application for Family Visa..

• Why is it that, if your spouse profession is "LABOUR" it is IMPOSSIBLE to apply for family visa??
  
  IT's not that we are asking for the Government to feed us or taking over the local jobs!! we just want to visit and spend some quality family time with our husband, sons or daughters after months of not seeing each other..is that tooooooo much to ask??
  
  Aren't there any other alternatives that one could apply for, if his profession is so called 'LABOUR" besides changing his profession which is time consuming from what I understand..
  Don't tell me that this is the end of the road..that's it..sayonara...good bye..Ma as-salaamah..!!
  
  What if the spouse has a degree from a foreign university and in the professional line? would that make any difference??
  
  It is high time that the Saudi Government should find a solution to irradicate this never ending problem and make this world a better place to live in rather than having to pay air tickets for illegal umrah overstayers in the kingdom...!!(from what i've heard...mostly due to the fact of not obtaining family visa...etc)
  
  Common, give us a chance...
