O.k
But in my case i am going to resign and ask my employer for final exit after My study permit get approved
So what should i do?
If you have travelled any time in between your employment, that will be sufficient, I don't think so you need to provide a latest ERE,
My dear, Its simple requirement from embassy to show that you are resident of KSA on valid documents and have traveled in and out side of the kingdom .
As you are a national of an other country but living in Kingdom, so these documents are the proof of your legal status here because you are applying for visa from within the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia .
For this purpose, they need your Iqama, ERE as a proof.
There is no need to mention that you will resign and get final exit once your visa is approved. Final exit has no meaning at this stage of your application.
All you need to do is, attach your current employment letter, giving detail of salary details, Salary slips of financial statement period, Resident Card (i.e. Iqama), ERE, Educational documents, SOP and other relevant documents in support of your application.

Hope, it will help you out for your visa application.
Thanks for your reply,
I understand all the documents that are required for the study permit application except exit and re-entry visa.
for my legal status in KSA, I will submit a copy of my iqama as well as a letter from my company for proof of employment.
as you know, the sponsor is the one who can issue exit and re-entry visa in my case (my employer).
what is the point of issuing ERE if I am going on final exit?
There is no point ....
But they will ask ERE (Any previous ERE) as mentioned in check list.
Please I would appreciate if you can assist me and share with me your profile and how went about it. My email is tegagreeny@hotmail.com. Thanks
Hi,
I have got the acceptance letter from Durham College and I have paid the fee for first semester. But the profession on my iqama is Labor, while I have been working as Procurement Officer for last 3 years. Do you think its ok or will it be a problem for me?
