Dear ehs, Did you have that information from AOC recently or was it a long time ago? Which position you have applied for if you don't mind? So is the next block release going to be in the middle of Oct for example???

I have heard about one. He had a visa, but it hadn't been placed in his passport yet and then it came through that his BI didn't pass muster, so they rejected his employment.
He had not received anything saying he had cleared the medical or BI.

Hi !!
Anyone who received their visa le last week and have their passports submitted last friday heard any news from AOC London regarding the visa stamping ?
I guess that due the large number of submitalls things are moving slower that their use to in London KSA Embassy.

Is it unusual that he hadn't received anything specifically stating that he had cleared the BI and medical? I haven't gotten anything in writing either but my relocation advisor said everything was fine and clear.

Same here, I didn't find out that I cleared the BI and Medical until asking my relo advisor for a status. I'm not sure when, but apparently its already done.

atactic,
Selam Aleikum guys, I am still alive (in the process), and my new visa block has been released last week. I was not active in the forum, as I had a very busy period, and to be honest, I was trying to avoid thinking about Aramco, as I get ed off every time when my visa issue comes to my mind. :oops:
The papers have been sent again to KSA embassy in Bosnia, so let's see what will happen. I was very upset as new visa block le was almost similar to previous one (System yst was old, and the new one is EDP System yst), but my RA is confident that everything will be ok now. FYI, I don't have finished college or University, so looks like that the guys in embassy are very picky about candidates that only have a High School. My High School degree is Computer Electronics, and last time Embassy was demanding that Job le is something similar to my degree. I was googling, and looks like that EDP Project yst is connected to Computer Software/Hardware related job.
Let's see - please keep fingers crossed for me, I will inform you about my current status.
Ma salama!

Hi to all, Long waited news finally arrived on August 21st when I was living on vacation: ## called me to confirm that my visa le was available at AOC London. Interview end of August 2013 (a year from now !!!); Offer letter received mid-November 2013; All BI & clearances covered end of January 2014; Re-do medical check-up at Harley center last week, while on vacation in London (for the 3rd time !?); Will send passports (mine & spouse) to KSA embassy in London next week for visa stamp, as still travelling around. Hopefully ready to move by October end, if no surprise, will post details by then. Cheers and Insha' to all.
