@Edgar II Thanks for the answer. I was told I need GOSI certificate as well? Is that not the case?

@hmdr7 Not included in the list from Absher. Istiqdam didn't looked for it when I applied mine. If you are an Engineer, don't you need SCE Membership?

Hi @hmdr7 - is there requirement of saudi culture attestation on degree or apostille attestation also works.

@Edgar II  How long ago did you apply for your wife?

and for SCE membership, yes its required for Engineer. We need an Istaqdam letter that can be printed out from the SCE profile. I already have that.

@Ashish Sharma76    I am not sure. Its because my degree has an equivalence certificate which was stamped by Saudi Culture bureau instead of stamping the actual degree itself. I am attaching that with the documents as well as an Arabic translation of it for good measure.

@hmdr7 Just last December 2023. We just got the Iqamas this March 2024 for the family.

Team,

Is it possible to take an appointment through Absher?  I have been trying to get an appointment with Jeddah Istiqdam over the past weeks but I coudln't.  It shows that there is no schedule as of yet.  How can I do that?

@hmdr7 thank you for your response.

Update- I got the yellow slip basis apostille attestation and SOCPA membership certificate. Saudi culture is no more mandatory for dependent iqama.

@Ashish Sharma76

do we need to apostille the marriage certificate and Birth certificate.

or only copy of marriage certificate and Birth certificate is enough. do they ask original of it.
