Dear dipen

Thank you for message. yes it is. even my re-medical reached to CHC on 5th January. Because there was time frame to resend after 6-8 week. I hope they will request for Passport within 4-6 week and e case status as well. Yesterday I was reading in the same forum some body wrote that he got the visa stamping and planning to land but e status is still showing in process, so we are not worried about e-status. as long as they ask for Passport and we need to have the Passport request as soon possible.
Hope we will communicate and update each other.

Thanks and best regards

Re: Re-Medical Done, resutl negative, What next ?

hmi,

I am from KSA too, in Riyadh. Renewal of iqama takes only a day to finish, and you can renew it anytime before the expiration date. The general safe rule is: no visa on passport, no resignation from current job. Renewal of iqama for me is not the issue here. The main concern is the timing of the renewal of your contract, if you are having a definite contract, meaning you are renewing and signing a new contract every end of its terms. And the labor law in KSA says, employees should give employers at least a month notice if there is a plan not to renew the contract. Now, if timing will be bad, i.e, you receive your visa after you have renewed your contract, you still can resign from your job, provided you would still give your employer a one month notice. But in this case, you might not get your indemnity(service award) full if your stay in that company is less than 10 years. You will receive two-thirds of your indemnity if you have worked in your employer for 5 years. One-third if three years, and you will receive nothing if your stay in the company is less than 2 years. This rule applies to those who will resign from their job before the end of their contract. A different rule applies to those who decides to leave the company after finishing their contract. That is, 2.5 months indemnity for the first 5 years and a month salary for every year thereafter. If you have stayed in that company for more than 10 years, you can resign anytime, you have nothing to loose, provided you should inform your employer at least a month bofore leaving, for them to find for your replacement.
Not so many people including employers knew about this rule. And many employers are not following this, or shall I say do not like to follow this.

A friend from Al Khobar, got his PPR 45 days after his meds. And received his stamped passport 3 weeks after that.He is under the new rules. My suggestion, do not resign not until you have the PR visa in your passport. Try to sit down with your employer and discuss with him possible scenarios, if in case you will resign after the renewal of your contract just in case you receive your visa after you have renewed your contract with your employer. From that conversation, I guess you can get a brighter picture for your planning.

Dear aspire

Thank you very much for giving the brief summary of labor law in KSA. I really appreciate your suggestion and comments, sure it will help me as well other staying in KSA and facing the same problems. My situation is different, let me explain to you clearly,
My company ended the contract with their client few month before and issued us the end of contract letter. It is termination from the Job. We got two choices
1. To go on final exit
2. To join any other employer and get release from them

Now if I will go on exit before the decision and stamping visa from here. i need to notify the CHC and request for other CHC office in my country (because from my country I may not be able to send my passport to London CHC)

So I wish to stay till my Iqama is vialed and do any temporary job by the time may i will get visa stamping
If I will transfer my sponsorship to new employer and get release from my previous employer it will cost me a huge amount (they may not pay my benefit or partially take, and demand a big amount for release letter) and then I have to pay a huge amount to change to sponsorship, because 3rd time change of sponsorship) And after all It will be very difficult for me to resign and land withing few month.

My worries are renewal of Iqama because when I will ask for renewal they may refuse or stamp exit. because still i did not transfer to other employer and nor for exit.
This is the main reason I am gating worried if any delay will occur. Time being I am trying to deal with my company to renew our Iqamas and within few month I will go on final exit hope fully they may agree for that. For this service they may ask big amount.

I will appreciate any suggestion or comments

Thanks again

Bro, it'll again take some time after the 2nd meds too. Though not necessarily 3-4 months, but should be atleast 1-2 months.

Hi,

If you will be left with no other choice but to leave Saudi Arabia for good, then the only thing you have to do in my opinion is to send a letter to London CHC and inform them of your new address. There is no need to ask for a transfer of visa office who will process your application. Just be sure to get a new KSA PCC before leaving, in case CIC will ask for a latest issue of your KSA PCC. Because once you have left Saudi Arabia and CIC asks for a new PCC form KSA you can no longer take one as KSA issues PCC to its legal residents only. Why can't you send passport to London CHC if you are to send it from your home country? What's the resitriction?

The only risk I see in your case is when CIC will ask for a third medial check and you have left Saudi Arabia already. Re tests will be done with your DMP who have done the first check. But I havent seen any re test request for the second time. But even though, CIC in my opinion will be considerate enough to understand your situation if explained properly why you have to do the 3rd medical with another DMP if in case you will be left with no choice than to leave KSA.

Just my thoughts other seniors may comment...

Regards.

Dear Asrire,

Thank you for your opinion and suggestions. May I will tray to renew my Iqama and get some extension to stay with my employer as its. it will help me to complete the remaining process from KSA. The problem is not only the leaving job or KSA, My kids school and education will effect too. so it is better to get renewal of Iqama.
I do not think they will ask the 3rd medical as long as the 2nd medical is clear and negative every thing.
New KSA PCC may not required if decided to continue staying as its.

Many thanks and regards

CONGRATS HMI !!!

 

[Caloy]

Hi All,
I have read all your status....My question would be it is really a must or standard to embassy to request for repeat medical once the xray result has scar/healed TB....My husband has that result before coming to Australia but they didn't ask for any test but they just re-do the xray before sending everything to embassy.
So, we went last 2 weeks ago to our medical and they haven't sent our medical file yet due to ecg test of my husband was not yet finalized yet.....For sure once everything received by embassy a re-medical might be asked??

In my opinion,
In all most every healed case they ask for repeat x-ray to compare with old x-ray.
All old healed chest T.B will leave some scar on lungs, and it will appear always in X-ray film, it does not mean that person is having active disease. Immigration medical officer want to make sure that there is no active disease, so they will ask repeat x-ray chest and sputum test for AFB and C/S 3 samples which should be incubated for 6-8 weeks. If sputum result is negative and no new changes in x-ray film, they will issue the visa. The re-medical will delay the process 4-6 months. In your husband case don’t be worried. Healed T.B will not make or having any ECG changes, except if he his heavy smoker or having some cardiac problems, which are traced during medical.

Otherwise don’t be worries. You will get cleared but it will take time.
best of luck
