WHISKYSPRITE

My husbands company are putting his profession through on his visa application as Pipefitter so won't have to get his credentials attested I believe, he is in a management position when he works there. My concern is that it won't be enough to sponsor me to go there with him? Anyone have any light to shed on this please ???

That profession would not allow him to sponsor the family and once he has that on his iqama would be very difficult to change.

If he is coming in as management you want something like Adviser as an occupation.

In 2008 you had a wife - massage therapist:

and now you have a husband - manager in construction.

IMHO your gender issue may raise more questions from Saudi immigration than his profession.

Thankyou for reply, I though that was the case.!

Not only that, the authorities are looking at income versus profession so a pipe fitter with 30ksar income per month may come under the magnifying glass at one stage or another.

Sales director or Sales Manager also does not require a degree....same in Dubai

Hi, can someone please tell me the procedure to get Indian degree legalized for British citizen for saudi work visa
I live in London and my prospective employer has sent visa papers.

Has to be done in India. Employ an agent or someone so you don't have to go yourself. And start process in the next half an hour because the Indian guy working for me took 2 months to get all the stamps in the bureaucratic heaven India is.

Don't know the process exactly but I know the final step is that KSA embassy in India needs to stamp it. Starts with a certified translation.

You have a degree from India?

Hi,

I got my education in india and then migrated to UK few years back and now i have acquired British citizen.
Enquire with agent here in UK and they say once my degree is attested ( from India), visa stamping can be done from london only.
It appears to be going in loop, as saudi embassy in India say it has to be done in london and when i call london embassy they say it has to be done in india,not sure who is wrong or right.

Thanks, KK

Obviously it wasn't a great education looking at your grammatical errors...

Attestation should be done in India. What has London got to do with it ?

Scott sir, I am typing using iPad so that might caused typo error. As far as education is concerned, I just let u know that the education I have got is from world class institute and that is called Mecca of engineering education......u can't imagine to get entry into that institute by any chance...
Anyways thanks for ur comment.

I made no comment on your degree

Maybe you need to practise your reading skills

I asked ahy London would be involved in attesting a degree from another country.

The remarks about your degree came from Kix.
