Saudi Arabia based Applicant

[Princess ZS]

Hello everyone,

I have sponsored my husband on family sponsorship to Canada. I wanted to know if there is any place in Saudi Arabia, where the passport can be send for visa? Our paper work is being processed in New Delhi. Thanks!

Which city are you residing?
There are vfs offices in many cities...check out your nearest one

My question meant to ask using VFS which visa processing office do you send it to? Abu Dhabi? New delhi? Is there any office in Saudi Arabia?

it's Riyadh office...

So should I be sending the passport to the Canadian embassy in Riyadh or New delhi since my file is being processed there?

As you are residing here you may send to Riyadh office...but make sure from your vo before you do so....

@ Neilphysio....it would be best to file an exit when you have the visa on hand. Sometimes, CIC can change their mind after passport request. Remember it's better to be always at the safe side.

Hi eager_rugby,

@ Neilphysio---we have the same situation. My contract ends this coming September.

I have one question. A week ago PR was approved and CIC-Vegreville advised us to wait for passport request. Did someone of you guys knows how long it takes to receive the letter? Will I recieve it by email or by mail.


Thank you & God Bless

Dear All,

I am in critical situation, hence need some advise. I changed my Job and came to Saudi from India on 19th March and on 02nd May I received medical request from CIC which I have done in Saudi and have send the RPRF DD along with medical receipt to NDVO from India. Now on 26th May I received PCC submission request asking for India PCC and any other country I live for more than six months. I got India PCC however did not applied for saudi as its still only three month for me here. hence, what would anyone suggest shall I send them only India PCC along with a letter explaining the above matter, also do I need to inform them about job change at this stage....

Thanks all......

Do inform them about job change and new address and no need to supply Saudi PCC since your stay is yet not of 6 months or more. Since your PPR would be coming soon so if you are not going to inform them then they would be asking you to submit passports to NDVO which might not be easy for you by sitting here, if you inform them at the right stage, then they would refer you to Riyadh Visa office for visa stamping.

I have noticed from your timeline that you have received PPR request after almost one year of MR and now you are traveling in year 2015....do you have to undergo medical examination again as it is one year of your first MR??
