Hi, I have received an offer from new employer and I accepted it the status changed to pending approval from current employer. My current employer is in Red category but still I dont get transferred automatically.

I accepted the offer 2 days ago. Will it get transferred after some days? or the tranfer request will get cancelled?

My current employer has no qiwa account and he is in red. Please help if you have any information. Thanks

One friend told me if the current sponsor have no qiwa account and the status of the new offer is pending approval by the current sponser you will get transferred automatically after 10 days

What is the Current Status in your Qiwa portal. After you accept the offer , i think the new employer has to accept thro their Absher account

If the Status is “Pending Completing Transfer in Absher by New Employer”, just wait for a day or two, the status will change to APPROVE soon.

All the best

what date did you accept offer from new employer? is your current employer in RED?

umer arshad

I accept on 27 June and they are average green.

FrenzyFish

Since they are in green, they have authority to reject but they need to give justification for that as per I read in some Forums here.

if they ignore it and not rejecting, then you may get transfer after a certain time not sure though.

I suggest you to open a ticket with Qiwa support in your account and explain your issue they may help.

Guys i am having the same issue by last sunday. Before two days it was showing that currently absher system is not working and today once my new employer trying to transfer my sponsorship but this time the problem is "insuffient funds for transfer"  even though my company paid the transfer amount and its showing in my passport deposits. But Alhamdolilah my information is showing in my new employer absher.

Kindly help if someone facing the same issue.

umer arshad

Yes I CAN UNDERSTAND
I must ask qiwa for this
As right now system is very vague and no guidelines available

Bennie0825

Hello guys how many days valid the request is it 14 business days or including weekends if ever not yet aceepted can my new employer request again?

faizp2932

14 days including weekends.

Bennie0825

If expired can my new employer request again??

snah

Processing through QIWA system as follows if your current employer willing to give an employee release:

Step 1: Employee have to receive an offer through QIWA from the new employer.


Step 2: Employee review the offer either ACCEPT/ REJECT by press the button .


Step 3: Current Employer should APPROVE through QIWA the request of the new employer after accepted of the employee the offer.


Step 4 : After the current employer APRROVED the request of an new employer the status show as PENDING FOR COMPLETING TRANSFER IN ABSHER BY NEW EMPLOYER. then the employee should inform the new employer as of his status in order the new employer to proceed the processing After that the employee should check his ABSHER to monitor his status if the new employer done process the IQAMA through absher it will show CURRENT POSITION TO THE NEW EMPLOYER, if that happened means the sponsorship already TRANSFERED.


Hope this helpful to those have the same issue. Thanks.

Today I received reply from Qiwa support on above query:


"The current employer should register and Activate his Account to complete the transfer process, if the current employer facing a problem
in his account , let him know that he should contact qiwa support to fix the issue."


"To have transfer acceptation the current employer and the employee should have qiwa account to complete the transfer
process , qiwa don't accept manual acceptation."

Keep in mind the first request it valid only for 10 days if the step 3 not accept the offer it will disappear, for the Step 4  it takes only a day if the new employer process the papers.

Bennie0825
