I had my interview in this embassy and everything went well, when it comes to the immigration officers, I will give them 4 stars.

The only thing I didn't like in this embassy is when you are trying to call them to ask some questions, the operator is very rude and no one answers the phone except from the automated messages.

The Indian consul told me that I have to wait at least 2 weeks before I will receive my visa, but after 4 days, Its in my hand.

:P

Congrats on getting visa in your hand. I have done my medical today. Obeid Hospital says that I will get the sealed envelope in a week. Regarding the documents required in the interview, I have one question.

My case was filed using joint sponsership. The instruction on the website says that they need most recent tax papers. Can my joint sponser send them directly to the Riyadh Embassy? I tried calling Embassy and sent them email as well. But no one is responding. The operator is just passing me through one extenstion to another.

Any pointers?

Regards

Have the joint sponsors to send the tax returns directly to you. You don't wan them to misplace it. Take it with you when you go for your interview.

Dr. Sailor, I believe you are in AP. You can contact the DOS to get an answer or an email to the Riyadh Embassy.

Dear Morro,

I have already replied your email but i am putting it here so that every one can read and if I am wrong, someone can give some feedback..

---------------

The step for getting the police certificate as follows.

1) Go to US embassy. Get a letter from them saying that they need a police certificate. You have to show US embassy your Iqama.

2) Get the lettest and go to Ministry of foreign Affairs and get it attested.

3) Go to area name Deerah. Ask the taxi driver to take you to the place where they take finger print. Tell him it is near the Mosque of Deerah.

4) As soon as you enter building a queue is the left hand side. Ask anyone. Show the letter to the police person and confirm that you are standing in the right queue.

5) After standing in the queue for some time. you will go inside a big room and have to sit in queue.

6) Have to fill a form. (simple) ask your neighbor for help

7) A person will take necessary documents from you ( Passport copy, iqama copy, pictures etc)

8) Another person will take you fingerprints.

9 A reciept will be given to you. You have to come after 2 weeks.

10) Go after 2 weeks. Do not go to that room. Go inside the main building. Go to first floor and ask anyone for help for the room. Show him the receipt and get you letter.

11) Get the arabic letter translated from any one of the authorized translator of US embassy. (One is near mama nora at dabab street.)

This all info is at least six months old. If anything process is changed till now, i can not help.

Thank you Aziz of your Help. This is very helpfull to me. Can I just submit the following documents to the US Embassy to get the lettetr:

1/ Approval letter from USCIS.

2/ Residency Permit (Iqama).

I still did not get the NVC letter yet requesting the PCC but I knew my NVC case number. I just want to have a PCC now in my hand, in case if I leave Saudia Arabia to my native country. I was told if I leave Saudia Arabia without one, it will be impossible to get one from abroad. Any advice on this ??

Thank you very much, and God Bless.

Dear Morro,

The docs you mentioned will be enough to get PCC. Just take a copy of your passport (Just in case). You have to go to window 10 (I think). He will give you PCC in few minutes.

You are right. You have to go to in PERSON to get the PCC coz they will take ur finger print. Once you are out of KSA, you will not be able to do that.

No problem. You can ask anything anytime.

After waiting for nearly 2 months after interview (AP), I received my passport with IR1 visa stamped on it valid for good 6 months.

I need some guidelines for the rest of the process. Here are the questions.

My visa expiry is end of Oct. I am planning to go there by the start of August. My POE (Point of Entry) will be JKF airport.

1) I came to know that on the POE, I will get a stamp on passport that will server as temporary green card for me. Do I need to apply for green card afterwards or will it come automatically?

2) If i have to apply, Can some one give some pointers e.g. Form Name etc.

3) If it will come automatically, how much average time it will take?

4) Do i need to stay there to take my green card or can i come back to Riyadh? (I have a job in Riyadh). Can my wife collect it for me and join me later? or do i have to personally go and take it.?

5) What about Social Security Card? How much time it will take and how to apply for it?

Thanks in advance. Really need some pointers.
