Dear Gents,

Recently (05- Aug- 17)I reached in KSA under a new engineer visa. My degree certificate was attested 2 yrs before and all documents are clear. I got a notification from my company GRO to register in Saudi Council of engineers as my IQAMA application was rejected due to no registration in SCE.

As per the instruction from my GRO I registered in SCE website by uploading all required documents and SR 500 SADAD payment has been paid as registration fees. After the payment, until now there is no update from SCE and the status is ' we are auditing your request.' .

But recently聽 I here one news from SCE that for expat engineers, 5 Yrs of work experience is required for SCE registration. I have only 4 Yrs of work experience..

My question is: If any rejection of my application from SCE, can I change my profession to a mechanical technician. (profession change is also banned - Recent news).

Please advice.

Regards,
AJ

Hi Ramukaka, I went to SCE office Dammam. Within 5 mins I got approval from them. It was a good experience and first for me in Saudi Arabia that getting things done within few minutes from any govt. offices.

Thanks a lot.

Hi Ali usman22, if you have the capability I would suggest you visit SCE office and try to sort it out there - I had 3 friends who had issues like the one above and manage to get them settled satisfactorily by going directly to SCE office.
