Hi maam. We have the same problem. Any advice what did you do maam? Did you take your prometric exam now? Thank you
I tried and rejected. I contacted tawasul and told me that it was because of my expired iqama. I will try again once i got my iqama and update you.
Kindly contact me for any issue related to saudi commission, dataflow, employment ....etc
I will try my best to give you free counseling. 11 years working in healthcare administration

Hello everyone! I'm new here. Hope everyone is well., I have kinda the same problem as you guys. I hope you can enlighten me. I'm a nurse with 7 years working expi. 3 years locally and 4 years in Saudi. I have a current application in one of the hospitals in Riyadh and i'm just waiting for my Visa. Unfortunately, the deployment was suspended until further notice by the Ministry and as of now, I already have a working gap of 1 year 8 months to be exact. My Saudi Council License has just expired last month. Will my work gap be a problem on this case if I will renew my saudi council once I get there? Will I be deported if I will not be able to renew my license? Will I not be deployed due to this gap? Should I work here while waiting for my Visa? Please help. The suspension is non of my control, will the council take this into consideration? Thanks in advance. Godbless you all.,
You should keep working even a part-time job as per your specialty in the license.
Thanks and God bless. All the best

What will happen if I will not work and just go to Saudi yo work? As much as possible, I don't want to do hospital job here in the Philippines because I have a 15 month old child and both my parents are seniors already., I don't want to take the risk., Is there any way I can do to fill up my gap?
They will reject, your career in saudi arabia will be at risk.
@dataserve
Can I apply for a training letter in Mumaris instead?
Only saudi can have this privilege, non-saudi must go back and work for one year again. We work for such kinds of jobs if not uploaded yet in the system,. All the best
I got graduated in bachelor's of medical laboratory technology in 2012 from india but the institute was not UGC recognised i did not know about it so will i be able to work in the kingdom with 9 years gap as i tried my luck pretty hard to work in the same field but ended up working mostly in sales field instead of lab field, if still i can work what will be the technique to get prometric exam wnd be eligible to work as medical laboratory technician in Kingdom?

Hi. May i know what happen to you in KSA?did you takw the exam despite your 2 years working gap?i know its been almost 2 years since you've post this. Thank you
@mm smng
Did you continue youre application to KSA? I have a same situation with you working gap of 1 year and 5 mos. I didnt work in the philippines since i came here last 2020 because of covid and im with my grandparents and its very risky. And now my agency told me regarding this working gap because i dont have any idea that it will be questionnable to the saudi council. I dont know what to do right now if i will gonna work or no. Hopefully saudi council will consider this kind of situation Im also coming back to my previous hospital in KSA.
You will face a problem if you Have a working gap.. you can’t renew ur license and they will ask u to go back to ur country to fill the gap..
Okay thank you. I have another question hope you dont mind. Will the scfhs accept for a dental, clinic or company nurse as an experience to renew my license?im still considering not working in the hospital because of this pandemic.
Will they accept dental experience???

Hello guys do they accept dental clinic experience? In taking prometriC
As per the Saudi Commission Executive Manual, they should accept. But you may need to explain the reason of the gap more than 6 months if they return the case for any reason when you apply through Mumaris Plus.
Thanks
What happened after po? Did u went home?
@koalabear55
Did you submit all your certificates of employment to the dataflow? Or you just chose a certificate of employment with 3 years experience? Thank you.
@Guestposter406
Hi. Did you continue your application to Saudi despite the working gap. I have the same exact situation as yours. Please share what did you do. I am also confused.
Thanks in advance.
@dataserve hi! I have a problem on my saudi council. i didnt had the verification letter because of the working gap i failed to submit before. Now, when Iam able to provide it the Saudi council. Ask for my enployer to explain why im working without the license. The problem the employer didnt want to provide the explanation letter. Is there any other ways for me to get the license verification?
@Mejsameoy I have same situation as you are, they rejected my first application because I have more than 2yrs work gap and there is no refund for the amount I have. What happen to your application did you able to renew?how?please tell me also?
