Good morning! 😊 I am a female sponsor and I got an error online that I cannot proceed because I am a female. Aside from visiting istiqdam office where can I process the visa application for my husband?

I have translation copy of marriage and birth certificates translated in India Mumbai office. Can I take it to Istiqdam office? Or should I translated it from local KSA office?
It's better to get translated from Saudi Arabia.Mostly they will not accept the translation from other countries.
I am facing an issue with the last name because the last name contains 18 letters, but we can only enter 15 letters in the column. Is there any way to accommodate the full last name? (Note: There are four columns - first name, second name, third name, and last name) Pls advise anyone have any idea.

Please help me with some information. I am now in Riyadh on "visit visa". Now my husband wants to apply for "family visa from Istegdam". Is it ok to take appointment for family visa while I am there?????? Or do I have to go to the country now and then take an appointment??
If I have a family visa, I will definitely go to the country and then come back.
But now I want to know whether I can apply here while I am visiting, because it takes a long time to get the appointment serial. Please let me know if there will be a problem. .
وعليكم السلام ورحمة الله وبركاته
Yes, you can stay here while your husband can apply for Family Visa through Isteqdam. When you go back to home country and take appointment for Family Visa attestation first they’ll cancel your visit visa then do the family Visa process
Good day :) i would like to ask if the payment for permanent family visa worth 2000sr will cover all family member/dependents or each of dependend needs to pay 2000sr, in my case i have 2 child.
Thank youu
2000 SR for all not per person
Maam, we got our visa. Now my children's polio vaccination is given for attestation. After getting that only we can take an appointment in vfs. Do you know how much validity is there for that yellow slip
It will be valid till 365 days from the date of issue
Good Luck
My husband’s visa is Riyadh visa, so do I have to go to Riyadh istiqdam office to apply for family visa? My husband is currently in Dammam, so is it not enough to go to istiqdam office in Dammam?
If it’s written Riyadh in your husband’s Iqama then he must take the Istiqdam appointment of Riyadh from ABSHER and submit the required documents for Family Resident Visa
For other things he can go to Dammam Jawazat or Dammam MOFA but as far as I know he must get the Family visa from his Muqeem’s city
Riyadh is still fine I’ve seen people going to Jeddah from Dammam to get their Family Visa
One of my kids born in saudi, have birth certificate from embassy riyadh, we left in 2018, now i am on new visa and planning to apply for permanent family visa.

No Need for Birth Certificate attestation if the kid is born in Saudi Arabia
@@MommyinSaudiArabia thanks a lot for your reply brother
Hi.
Do you have any information related to appointments for isteqdam in absher, as currently its not working
Maam, my husband's profession according to Iqama is "truck driver". Is he eligible for applying permanent family visa?
No idea
I have applied online as my profession is Engineer.
Attested on 11th August 2024.. still Visa number not received...
Can you mention if online Visa submission is still getting Visa??
Dear, can we apply for family permanent visa while family is already here in Saudi on tourist visa?
Yes you can apply but your family has to leave the kingdom and get the attestation from home country
It is mentioned the marraige certificate / degree/ birth certificate amshould be attested from EMBASY and MOFA.. both should be done from home country? Or if we have the originals other than degree must be attested?
All documents you've mentioned should be attested from Saudi Embassy in your home country and copies(back n front) is enough no need for Originals to submit
2 year diploma in interior designing can apply for permanent family visa?
If Im doing online through Absher, Then marriage certificate, Birth certificate, Salary certificate etc.. not required to get yellow paper?
Can you please say how to download a visa document from absher.i got the visa number but I'm not able to download the visa document.Can you please help

Hello Madam , Thank you for sharing the information precisely.
I have Electrical Engineer Visa and i am registered with Saudi Council of Engineers.But when i applied online through Absher account it gave me notification "Your application cannot be processed because it does not fulfill Istiqdam e-service business rules".
It means my employers commercial registration / Chamber of commerce registration/ Maktab Amal account is expired , correct .
Request your guidance 🙏
If your profession on Iqama ha been changed after coming to Saudi Arabia, then you cannot proceed your family visa online. You have to go through isteqdam office , then in sha Allah you will get permanent family visa.
My husband also applied he is an engineer and registered as Saudi council of engineers but no notification it's been a month
It's better to go through Isteqdam appointment process
Hi, I received sms for online visa granted. Now I have to stamp the visa but in Absher cannot find for visa download or print. How can I find or print this visa issued? How long I have time to print before it disappear?
Hi, How long it will take to get a visa number after chamber authorization.? Thanks in advance,

Hello mam , degree certificate also need to get attestation? I already registered in saudi council of engineers
No need for MOFA just Saudi embassy attestation from Home country and Yes attestation is required for degree even if it is registered in Saudi Council
@@MommyinSaudiArabiaMadam How we get registered in Saudi council if we not provided Saudi embassy attested degree certificate? This means already degree certificate attestation done at Saudi embassy and after that itself Saudi council of Engineering will accept your membership.
Mam ,
Is it Okea of my marriage certificate is kuwait attested ( for applying permanent visa in KSA)
Plz reply me mam ?
No not acceptable Must be Saudi Attested
hello need assistance .
I have paid the amount 1 hour ago for application but when every ever i press ''apply for VISA application form'' .
it shows error '' You have not paid the fee for istikdam '' but the amount is already showing in my Absher deposit . Should i wait for day or two for system to update.
It will take time to reflect in the system and kindly recheck in which category you've deposited your amount
@@MommyinSaudiArabia Thank you for your response i have paid through SNB the category was ''Dependent Visa entry fee''. which was 2000 SAR.
@@MommyinSaudiArabia hello sorry to bother you again my application status after chamber of commerce shows rejected but there is no reason mentioned for rejection .
wife can appy family visa for shes husband in saudi arabia
yes she can apply for Family Visa for her husband in Saudi Arabia
@MommyinSaudiArabia think you so much
I am already in ksa on family multiple visit visa can living hre my husband apply for permanent visa or should I first go back to country and cancel my multiple visit visa and then apply for permanent visa????
It was possible before to convert visit visa into Resident permit but in 2021 they removed this option now you must get a Permanent Family visa and comeback from your home country
Maam, my husband tried our permanent visa online, but he didn't get it. But the payment of 2000 riyal was accepted. What will we do now.? Should we try again online or go directly to apply.
What was the error message he got while applying online ? If they ask to submit the documents then you’ve to book an appointment for Isteqdam and submit the documents such as Marriage certificate with Saudi counseling or Birth certificates of your kids(If Any)
You don’t have to pay again and for better clarification try again online from ABSHER platform If it doesn’t accept your husband can record the message of rejection and act accordingly
Feel free to ask further questions regarding this subject
@@MommyinSaudiArabia thanks alot for your support dear. I will let you know the correct details later.
Maam,one person in my husband's office said he took the original marriage certificate and birth certificate of children to istiqdam to get residence visa. But our original certificates are here in India. Is that information true. How can we know the correct information. We are in a dilemma now.
Copy of Marriage Certificate (for spouse) and full copy Birth Certificate (for children) that shows the mother and father’s names. This much is enough to prove your relationship with the sponsor if it is attested then they'll verify through their system That's why attestation is important not the original certificates
We have the Saudi attested marriage certificate and birth certificates of kids. But it is with me in India. I thought a copy of all these certificates was enough at istiqdam office. But you mean my husband should take all those attested originals while going there, right? Sorry to bother you. I am tensed as we should sent those certificates to Saudi and all it will take a lot of time.
can you pls guide me, is there any 11000/- riyals iqama fee per year for spouse other than 400/- riyals which pay in monthly bases?
No, I can’t guide you
can someone guide me . i have 3 years diploma from pakistan in electrical and my occupation in saudi arabia is occupational health and safety supervisor. so will it be accepted ?
Maam, I work as cabin crew with business visa, can I transfer to iqoma? How can I bring my wife and kids to live in saudi?
No you can’t convert Business visa into Resident visa but you can bring your family on Umrah/Tourist Visa
That will be single entry visa and maximum duration of stay will be 90 days without extension option
hi, I have apply online and my sponser approved through chamber of commerce , but still no update since 10 days , how long need to wait or should I visit Isteqdam office with online application , please advise
What heppen you get visa?
