Saudi Arabia Visa Process 3+ months so far.

Hello Everyone in the KSA Boards!

I have a general question about work visas.

I was hired by a company called Adwwa Rabia about 3 months ago to work as an ESL teacher in Riyadh and they started me on the process of getting my work visa. Although most things have been explained about this process and even times things I've done has slowed the process, is it common for a visa to take up to 3+ months to process?

I'm thinking at some point I should probably abandon this and start looking for another job.

Your comments are appreciated!

Thanks!
