Hi,
I'd like to know if there are still vacant for Al Khobar Aramco Community? I'm in family status GC11 and would like to know hows the accommodation in Khobar?
Anyone here just arrive recently? Where have you stayed in your first month/weeks/days before getting your permanent apartment?
Also, how much is the cost for family status apartment with 1 room? Since we still don't have child.
Thank you!

There is housing in the Khobar leased properties. Many are being assigned to Radium at this time. Some are going to Rakah and some to the Aramco communities.
Housing is assigned the week of your arrival depending on availability when you arrive. So it could be anywhere there is a house you are eligible for depending on GC and number of children.
Your recruiter/relocation agent will probably tell you a day or two before you step on the plane to come. At that time you can ask about the rent. Depends on where you are housed as to what the rent will be. All the rent is reasonable.
Keep in touch with your relocation agent/recruiter as your departure date is closer.

Aramco does have bachelor housing leased in Khobar. There is no way to tell you where you will be assigned housing. Your housing assignment will be made the week of your arrival or even a day or two prior to you stepping on the plane. Your recruiter or relocation agent should be able to tell you where your housing assignment is once it has been made.

Hi JCM,
How are you, are you know in KSA?, i am a Filipino currently on the VISA processing, Just want to ask did ARAMCO issued you a letter confirming that you can resign with the current employer or did the agency here in the Philippines just gave you a notice that you now have the visa and you can resign from your current employer. Just a little worried because some how there is a tread on the forum that he already resigned and has the visa and flight details but was put on hold.
Another inquiry is, i am on a single status, can you share me some info on where they are assigning or what are possible options for accommodation.
Hope you can share something with me.
thanks.
