Members who got their PCC from Saudi, in the front side of our PCC at the middle part is written PCC requested by:________________ what name is supposed to be written on this part (is it our name or canadian embassy)?? I got my PCC and on this part what is written is the name of my company and not my name...Can you please share yours.. thanks
I don't think that this part is important. It doesn't matter to who it is addressed as long as it says "no criminal record" :D

Hi Friends,
I have 1 question regarding PCC from Khobar / Dammam Region.
Previously I have read on this forum that a request letter has to be obtained from embassy (to save the time until the original request letter reaches us by snail mail). How do we Khobar / Dammam region guys obtain this letter? Do we have to go to riyadh for this letter?

+1 for the reply. How many photos you submitted with the passport? Since in the email I was asked to submit two photos however VFS asked for additional two. Two with name and application number, one with photographer stamp and one blank.

Hi Shahzad,

Your and mine PPR timeline is same and Ecas too. I got PPR2 on 10 March, and submitted my PPs on 11 March thru VFS Riyadh. But my Ecas was still ''In Process.'' And just yesterday on Friday 13 March, 2015 when I checked my E-status it was changed to ''Decision Made.'' I am so happy now Alhamdulillah. Now the wait starts for Passports and CoPR to be back from Vfs. Hope to get them soon as my iqama is expiring soon and have to renew by submitting my passports. So praying to get PPs back soon to avoid fine.

Regards.

Dear Fazal,

There is no more requirement of physical passport for Iqama Renewal these days. I just did mine before submitting my passports to VFS Khobar. My company didn't require Passports for renewal of iqama as Passports are with me since long. So, you can go ahead with Iqama Renewal, check with your employer...

As far as, Passport Return is concerned, i am also waiting since 22 Feb when i submitted to VFS Khobar...

Hope so, this tiring wait ends soon...
