Hey there,
i would like to ask about my situation. i am currently employed but in the phase of 3month probation that will end on may and hopefully with sign the contract afterwards, my question is that my iqama is dependent on my dad and my dad will quit his job and will move to another one next month, can i still be on his iqama when he moves to the other job till i sign the contract ?
Thank you.

Depends on how old you are and how long you intend to stay under his iqama. Some employers may allow this, but Labor office may not approve if the age is more than 23 and still under dad's sponsorship - unless you prove that you are studying here as a full time student , a letter from a college / university is what is needed as proof.
