Hi
I am currently working in a hospital and I’m local hire because I came here as a dependent of my husband and now I will resign to my current work and back as a dependent of my husband. Is it possible and what is the process? Thank you to those who will answer

Hi ,
If your Present iqama is under the name of your husband as a sponsor it means anytime you can resign from the hospital you are working for but if your iqama is already under sponsorship from the hospital it means you have to exit the country first and comeback under the sponsorship of your husband as family visa.

Right answer.

Hi, thank you for the reply. Is it in the law that you need to exit because I’m local hire?

Hi Dear,

No it's not necessary in KSA to exit and return.. It's on the website new sponsor will send a link to previous sponsor, once the previous sponsor agree and give his consent it change your sponsorship online..

Hope that clarified your query.

Regards,

Have a good day.
