Post new topic

Hi,

My family came to Saudi Arabia around 1 month ago. However their iqama is not yet ready. My company is based in Riyadh and i am working on different location. My company support services staff is still working on getting their iqama ready but ramzan holidays are coming. I have less hope of their iqama. My family also want to go to home country on Eid as they came with return ticket.

1. Is this possible to send family  to home country without their iqama is prepared.
2. I tried to pay the dependent fees but since their iqama is not yet ready i can't pay the fees.
how can i pay their fees.

Hello,
You cannot send your family back or even they cannot travel out of Saudi unless they got their IDs. if they did, you'll lose the opportunity to issue a resident ID for them.

Paying expat fees will be after issuing IDs. Don't worry about paying the fees if you've the money :) it's just one click through your bank account and you'll get it done.

Thanks for the information. I was thinking the same but to be sure i had decided to have a suggestion from people who have more clarity on such things.

Thanks again   :)

I am struggling for their iqama from more than 30 days. Their medical report is showing approved in EFADA but in moh site it shows " medical report not sent to jawazat". I tried to contact hospital and they said they already uploaded in the EFADA site. this is the only thing they can do. After this EFADA system send the report electronically to jawazat system. They gave me the hardcopy of the medical report. Jawazat office can accept this report for iqama. Please help me what can i do now.

My company is in Riyadh and i am working in different location. My company has taken the passport for iqama and its really tough to stay without any ID.

Please let me know is this possible to apply iqama for my family online or from jawazat office of the city i am staying or it could be done from Riyadh where my company headquarter is located.

Next month there are some function and my family want to go back to india. Is this possible for them to take exit without their ID's prepared. or let me know how can i send them back to india without their iqama are ready.

They still have family visa valid for 1 month.

Also, can they go to mecca and madinah or any place inside kingdom with their passport with valid family visa for more than 1 month.
