I got mine after exactly 6 days after fingerprinting. I did it from Eastern Province Police Headquarter in Dammam. The finger prints were taken by machine (not ink stamp), the report form was computer printed.

Generally Medical request is coming after 43 days of PER email. Same like you. Then why for me it will take 60-90Days ?
I hope it you will get it faster. But I had a look at the spreadsheet and quoted 2-3 months based on the current trend.
Note that my application was among the first batches delivered to CIC (I sent on 1st May 2014, delivered on 7th May), at that time, the queue of application was much smaller comparing to how it is now.

I hope you will get it very soon :)

I got my Saudi PCC from Jeddah in just 2 working days and have sent it already with my initial application.

I had translated that Saudi PCC in English and later attested that with MOFA and sent it with my application to CIO NS

Waiting anxiously for the charge and PER.

Guys let me share you my experience with CIC and Saudi PCC

I got my PCC with in a week after applying from Jeddah.

After that I sent my PCC without translation for the first time, then i got email that I have to translate the PCC.

So I got it translate and send it.

Since my application toke so long therefore CIC emailed me to send a new PCC from Saudi, During this time I did a frequent visits BTW Pak and Saudi.

I Didn't send new PCC (I my self don't know why) may be I was fade-up

After 3 months CIC asked my to update and send all forms which i sent for the first time, new forms was little bit changed from 2011 to 2013

Well I completed the form and send them

After 1 month again I got an email from CIC in which they asked me to send new PCC from Pakistan (I also sent PCC from Pakistan before)

I was surprised that first they asked me to send PCC from Saudi (which I didn't sent for the second time) Now they are asking me to send a new PCC from Pakistan while I was in Saudi.

Anyways while I was in Saudi I asked my brother to make a PCC for me from Pakistan and send it to CIC and he did so.

Well after that time passed and all went well. and now my application is finalized and "Decision is made"

My visa is now ready to issue

The purpose of sharing this that there is no any thumb rule in CIC, All is about luck :0

Hi all,

Just wanted to share my experience so that others can also get advantage regarding Medical especially in KSA.

1- Whenever you receive MR email, the first thing you need to do, find out the relevant approved hospital near by you and book an appointment.
2- It almost taken 10 days (minimum) to get an appointment, so don't keep on sitting on MR email, just immediately act upon it. As it happened in my case and most of my friend's cases.
3-Try to be at hospital atleast 15 minutes before the appointment as you never know about traffic and whether conditions. As in my cases, it was extremely humid and fogy day, and you will not believe but I had to drive at speed of 50-60 khr.
4- The last but not least is, once your medical is done, again don't assume it will be uploaded automatically. sometimes Medical center people keeps on delaying it as they are very busy or very lazy. In my case, I had to call 3 times to request them to upload the results.

Note: Just be relax, and drink alot of water before medical. Rest leave it on God and you will be fine.!

Best Wishes to all.
