Hi Tawakal,

I also went through the same procedure, and am now done with medicals.
My wife is diabetic, and hence they required some additional tests, as per protocol.

we shelled around 2800 SAR (which is too much), but there was no option.
The nurse/hitler told us that medical will be sent to LVO on sunday.... and hopefully I will get the courier tracking number...


Just one piece of advice for you... pls take all your previous medical records with you on monday, if applicable.

also be ready for another round of waiting... we had to wait 2 hrs beyond scheduled appontment



This waiting thing is very bad especially with my 3 super naughty kids, seems they are not very organise in scheduling appointments.

I in fact don't have any medical issues except a little bit higher level of cholestrol (not on medicatin)but if you recommend should I take my previous blood tests?
Please check, I have sent you personal message,
Thanks and regards,

Hi, You have to send the empty envolop with your address lable (it will be mentioned in the instruction you will receive with your PPR) and you dont need to send the prepaid courier voucher, your passport will be sent to Canadian embassy in Saudi arabia and from there it will be sent to you through courier and on receiving the passport by you, courier guy will ask you for the courier charges.

hope it clarifies.

Dear Dr.
(it is for someone who wants it from Riyadh, For Jeddah procedure would be same just you need to locate CID in that area)
its quite simple, follow the steps below:
1. Go to pak embassy and ask for a reference letter written in arabic to the CID (criminal investigation deptt, batha) saying that with regards to your immigration process you reuire a PCC. They will issue you the same day, like if you go early morning, they will ask you to come in the afternoon and collect.
2. Take this letter and go to nasriyah (MOFA), get it attested from there.
3. Now take this letter, your original iama, original passport, 3 passport size photographs and go to CID office in Batha. You can ask any limo drover and they know.If you go by your own car, then on batha road while going towards hiraj, you need to take right from the second bridge. Then go straight and pass a signal. From the second signal take left and after almost 60 meters you will find this building on your left.

Hope it will help.Best of luck,cheers

Dear Dr. Anam,

you dont really have to think of your collection of PCC at this moment right now, its clearly mentioned in cic.gc.ca instructions from immigration that the visa office(london in our case) will send you the original arabic request letter to obtain PCC from KSA, london visa office will send you that letter along with the medical instruction, then you have to take that original arabic letter to MOFA for chamber of commerce stamping and then you take your passport copy,original iqama,with that letter to the nearest police station to request for PCC, any arrangement from PCC earlier then instructions from CHC,LONDON is not necessary, cause your PCC will have 1 year validity and you dont know london will ask for it. hope it helps. take care.
