No, PCC is only required if you reside in any country for 6 months and above.

What if the number of visits are almost 6 months but never resided or does visits dont count?
If it is less than 6 months, you don't require. Regarding visit point, if you stayed more than 6 months as a visitor, then i am not sure about this, need a view of some other member if he knows about it.

Yes exactly thats my question,actually i moved later to bahrain and got pcc but only for the time i became a resident and not before,so in total i stayed more than 6 months,before moving my total visits are less than 6 months,i have a recent pcc but starting date is after i stayed here

Need assistance please!

Received request from CHC London to submit passports in a single package for whole family to Riyadh to stamp PR visa. Wife and kids are back at home country in Pakistan and i work here in Saudi Arabia. Not possible to send passports in a single package to Riyadh since passports can't be received from Pakistan via courier i guess.

Sent an email to London explained them the situation but no reply from there. Does anyone has idea how to proceed or what would be an alternative to my situation? Thanks

Hello

I have translated my police certificate from a certified translator from Saudi Arabia. The translation is in the official letter of the translator with his stamp and also I attested it from the chamber of commerce. But there is no affidavit given by translator as required by CIC.

kindly guide me regarding affidavit as translation offices in Saudi Arabia do not provide affidavit with translation. In this case, what could be an alternate solution to get the right documents with translation?

Thank you in advance

Hi!

1. I need a clarification for PCC.

I already have an endorsement letter from my embassy (Philippine Embassy) stating that I need a police clearance for the purpose of Immigrating to Canada and it is already stamped by MOFA. Can I go to the Police Station now in Dammam? Or should I ask Canadian embassy in Riyadh to give me that letter? I didnt get a police clearance yet because I read that the letter should come from the Canadian embassy?

2. Medical

How much is the medical fee in Dar Al Afia Dammam? ANd how long do they usually book you for appointment? Do they have emedical and will they upload the medical results fast?

3. Are there any good studio in Khobar/Dhahran mall where you can have a photo taken for the purpose of Canadian visa?


I'm sorry if I have a lot of questions but I hope you all can help me... THanks! :)

I am in the same situation. Can you please share your experience of PCC translation? Did you get the affidavit with the translation and from where did you certify the true copy of your original PCC?

It would be great if you share your experience

I have submitted my PCC for Saudi before two years and it was accepted without any addidavit. Even it was not verified by chamber. I am from Pakistan. The stamp of the translator should show the name and address.
May be its a new requirement of CIC.

Inform CIC about this and they will help you. Same situation I also faced before two years when I was in Dammam and my family was in Pakistan.I don't remember exactly but I think CIC send me different forms for my family to submit the passports in Lahore.

Hi Guys,

My current "job title" and "sponsor name" on Iqama is different as compare to my actual position and company. I mean my current sponsor/company name is not listed on my Iqama and job title also not matched, so could it be any problem if I apply under PNP? do they required translated copy of Iqama?

Thanks,
any updates on this?

Dear All, I am new here and want to thank you for sharing your experiences.

I am an expat based on Khobar and I need an FBI PCC. Where in Khobar/Dammam (or even Bahrain) can I get my finger prints takes by a professional ?

when i came to saudi first time my visa was independent (Azad visa,,,, some labour is written in arabic on my visa) But with in few weeks i got IT job in Saudi and i transferred my Iqama (Residency Permit) to new employer.

Q.1) Will this old saudi visa which is stamped on my passport will affect my PR status ?
Q.2) In my New Job, my Iqama profession is Computer Operator, but i work as a Computer administrator. Is this ok ? Company is willing to give reference letter as computer administrator but they cannot change my profession on iqama.
