Guys. I'm facing an issue. When getting the PCC from saudi the police officer insisted on writing my profession exactly as in the Iqama, which is Translator. I am actually applying under NOC 1123. That will show a discrepancy in my file. In fact, I have never worked as a translator before. So my file has not got any mention of translator at all

Did any one pass through such situation before. How did it go. Did it cause any problems

Please advise as I am really worried

Its a very pleasant day to announce that by the grace of Allah yesterday I got my visa stamped along COPR from Riyadh VO

I am very glad ( YAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO )

A long journey for about 4 years is now ended Alhamdulillah.

I would like to thanks all the group member who contributed their knowledge and help to me,

I was really nothing without this group.

I am planing to land in June OR July 2015 in Toronto.


Thanks to all
First of All, Many Many congrats bro.

How much time has their visa office took to stamp your visa?

Your time line is stating 13th feb, 15 as visa issued date which is earlier than you passport submission date.

I AM A FSW2014 APPLICANT. I APPLIED THROUGH A CONSULTANT IN BANGLADESH. MY APPLICATION REACHED CIC ON DEC 22ND. NOC 3112. I LIVE IN SAUDI ARABIA. I HAD GIVEN THE ADDRESS OF SAUDI ARABIA IN MY APPLICATION FORMS. I DID NOT RECEIVE ANY PER BY NOW. UNFORTUNATELY I AM LEAVING SAUDI ARABIA PERMANENTLY FOR PERSONAL REASONS. I HAVE FEW QUESTIONS IN THIS CONTEXT.........

1. IF I CHANGE ADDRESS NOW IS IT GOING TO AFFECT MY APPLICATION.?

2. IF I GET PER, HOW WILL I INFORM THE VO ABOUT THIS CHANGE? AND WHAT CAN BE THE CONSEQUENCES?

3. WHAT IS THE PROCEDURE OF GETTING PCC FROM SAUDI ARABIA?

Can someone inform how much I will have to pay vfs global for their passport transmission service for permanent visa stamping?? I need visa stamping for me and my three dependents. I will submit and collect passports in person to VFS Khobar.

Yes on arrival visa is available for specific categories only and in addition they may ask you to produce your Iqama also. Sometimes the copy is enough however it would be safe if you carry your original iqama also.

very easy and ON arrival visA. JUST CHECK YOUR IQAMA CATEGORY AND CONFIRMED IT SO THAT YOU WONT HAVE ANY PROBLEM AT BORDER, LEAVE SAUDIA 2 DAYS BEFORE INTERVIEW.
BEST OF LUCK

Thanks for wishing bro,

Riyadh visa office took 1 week to stamp my passports

I submitted my passports on 18 feb and got returned on 26 feb.

The visa issue date on my passports is 13 Feb, that is that date on which I got an email for CIC regarding to submit my PP to Riyadh.

The visa issue date is always the same date on which CIC ask for PPR via email.

Thanks,

Bro, i am still waiting for the email from VFS. :(

I submitted on 22 Feb and they were delivered to Riyadh Embassy on 23rd Feb and now its second week ending today...

I think they don't have any criteria fixed for stamping visas, for you it took total 7 working days since u submitted passports but in my case, today is 10th working day. One of the forum mate, Mr. Ahmad also submitted passports after me on 22 Feb in same VFS Khobar office and he is also waiting like me...

Assalamu'alaikum,

I am waiting for Medical.

I want to know, which is the best center (e-medical) in KSA, which will upload the results fast and medicals done in one day.

As read in this forum that one person who did medical in Jeddah center had some problems in e- medical. So he had done upfront medical for the second time.

I don't want to face such technical problem.

I am willing to travel any center in KSA.

Plz suggest me a good center.

Plz share your experiences at medical

I will be very thankful to you

Thanks

Guys,

I requested CHC, New Delhi to allow us to get our passports stamped in Riyadh but no reply even after 3-4 days. I had also sent an email to Riyadh last friday and no reply from them either.

The people who were successful in changing the visa office to Riyadh, can you please give out more details on the process to request changes to VO and also how long did visa office take to reply to your request.

I am afraid that I wont get a response and the deadline may pass.

Thank you.

Bro its strange that u didn't get back your passports since 10 days.

All members which I know and which they also submitted passports in Saudi got back within 1 week.
May be there is some technical issue. Hopefully you will get them back soon InshaAllah.
