The VO were good (1 VO + 1 trainee), they checked the passports, asked if we paid taxes, couple of job related questions, they asked me to translate Arabic stamps on PP. They said ceremony invitation time is 1-4 months, one of my Canadian entry was not in PP as I scanned the PP in Toronto on entry so they will email CBSA for confirmation (a one day process).

Thank you. I don’t know much about Saudi stamp. I have couple of Qatar stamps and they say state of Qatar in English followed by Arabic and in the middle says the date in English. Will that need translating as well? I am thinking won’t be necessary as everything that needs to be clear is in English. Just asking your opinion. Thanks

No, you don't need Qatar's stamps translation if they are both in Arabic & English, I had some UAE stamps, UAE stamps are also both in Arabic/English and VO was fine with this, he asked me to translate Saudi stamps only as they are in Arabic only (Hijra calendar). I hope this helps.

Do you know if Turkish stamps need to be translated?

I don't know about Turkish stamps, but if there is no English date, then you do need translation.
