Guys just wondering if at all possible to extend the ER visa by a week? Kids existing visa expires week before half term so would prefer them not take time off. Before I speak to my HR chap just wanted to hear from others.
Cheers

If this is for KSA, my experience was that they are totally inflexible. They have to be otherwise some people would bemusing them around all the time !

thanks Scot, yes its for Saudi, guess no need to take this further with HR!

why take time off? You can apply for a new one while the existing one is in effect. It will be cancelled when the new one is issued. Usually takes a couple of days.

Unsure if you understood my predicament, kids are out home and needs to return and the forthcoming half term hols got out of sync. What you recommended probably true if they had not travelled.

then surely u will like any gcc country apply before you leave in time etc.

you're right, it isn't very clear. Are you saying they are out of Kingdom at school. I assumed that they were in Kingdom.

If OOK, then you'll have to bring them back before the multi-entry expires I believe. Otherwise, they'll have no valid way of entering the country.
