Dear Dockpk, Same issue for me and they put request on Nov-9 before my iqama expired on Nov-16.

Dear Iis it sorted? if yes please explain to me.

Gents,

My friends also facing the same issue, his new company has sent the request when his iqama was valid and due to certain reason with his current sponsor's government portal got blocked (Absher), now the iqama has expired and new employer has made the request 15 days before, but it is still showing understudying hence I would like to know what is the validity for the request and how can we cancel the request so that new company can raise another request?

Let the GRO of the new company go with your original passport and Iqama to Jawazat and transfer manually  from there.
