Dear friends i need suggestion,
my wife had invited her parents here, and we extended there visa for 90 days, but unfortunately it was for 60 days only, when we realize it it was already late,i heard that the saudi authorities will create problem while extending the iqama for her. in the form of penalties for SR 10,000 each and deportation. is that true?
i went to the passport office and they said that there will be no Exit, but a fine of SR 10, 000 each.we need to provide a medical certificate that my wife was ill during that time and by doing this they will remove the penalties
any Help??in this regard will be highly appreciated.
Thanks
Sam

Sam,we faced exactly the same 2 years back and our life got really tough and phase wasn't to survivable for us but we manged.
Mom's Visa expiry news was quite a shocking revelation on us specially when we were told about 3 punishments all together or any one or two of these.Jail,Deportation and SR10,000 Penalty.
We visited every possible person with forlorn hopes and the case lasted for more than year...Several times my hubby visited court to resolve the matter and Judge was agree with the fact that my hubby ain't a cheat and he wants to sort it out but it was solved with a strong"source"Thx God its fine now ...u need to do same and u can always message me pvt for more details

so this must be a wake-up call to anyone who has dependents on visit visa -- check and verify carefully the expiration of the visa to avoid such situation.

@samthepassion i hope you will solve that problem as soon as possible.

Take your wife to a private clinic in Riyadh and ask the doctor to write the report you require.
