Hello my friends.

I've been reading here that some consulates are considered "high fraud" but my question is if Riyadh embassy in Saudi Arabia is considered high fraud embassy????...have the interviews been particularly tough in Riyadh? Thanks for any info :-)

You can read interview reviews for your consulate here: http://www.visajourney.com/reviews/index.php?cnty=Saudi+Arabia&cty=&dfilter=5

It should give you an impression of how they tend to go (and how easy/hard it will be).

From the info I researched on visa journey I haven't seen hardships from the embassy for high fraud. I only see some struggles of waiting on AP after people have had their interview. Especially for the males, I'm so prepared for that to come for my husband. It's mandatory mostly for pretty much most of the Mena countries.
