There's nothing much we can do after this..... I am pretty sure that the canadian govt is also aware of the political situation of Syria and that even the Syrian delegates have been withdrawn from Saudi Arabia!! 

The letter has been submitted to canadian embassy in abudhabi last week, now waiting for their final decision! My husband's medical also expires this month!!!! Don't know what will happen now, really stressed!! Anyone is familiar to this kind of situation, what normally happens after the medical expires, is it all over for us? Should we give up? Is it time that I should close all chapters of canada and start packing to go back to my husband??!! Cry

No need to weep.

Just write the embassy with a good explanation and if satisfied, they will waive it. It happened to me. I was told to submit a sworn statement/affidavit instead, that I was never arrested in Saudi Arabia. Quite funny... my main statement was only one sentence...exactly the words they gave me. I was afraid complication might occur if i explained further.

But you said you sent that employer certification already... that should suffice if they did not write back anymore. In my case, I had 3 follow-up letters including the ultimatum from the embassy because I really could not produce it. I had given up going to canada until I resorted to explaining to them, and I really said in my letter that I already told my wife to prepare to come home if things do not turn up as expected.

KSA will not issue a police certificate if you are not resident there anymore. So going there will be useless. Also, granting they give you, the 2 months processing time plus the time it takes for you to submit could render the certificate expired (3 months of issuance)

Just go the DFA old bldg. go to the OUMWA section,your husband will personally sign a form. actually, that was not a police clearance but a no derogatory record form which is also accepted. it took 2 mos to process and cost think 1k+...

It is very easy process to get PCC from  Saudi arabia if you redisent, if you not resident in Saudi arabia, find some friends who live in Saudi Arabia, send old Iqama Copy, there are so many agency help you to get PCC from KSA( you must send letter from Abudhabi CIC, passport copy and old Iqama copy), hope this will help u, if u want any agency name let me know

It's very simple to get one. Just get a letter from Canadian Embassy, take it to Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the will stamp it. If you are in Riyadh the certificate issueing authority is near Batha 2nd overhead bridge. Let me now if you need further information.

Hi as mentioned earlier, my husband went to his nearest Saudi consulate to submit the followings as listed below, but nobody entertained him, saying they don't accept such requests anymore. His application was submitted on 1st week of July 2011.....does anyone know how many more months would Abu dhabi take to process his visa finally!!!???Cry


  1.     Copy of your passport. 
  2.     Legally issued fingerprints certificate from the police department.

This is discussed in another forum (requesting a KSA police clearance letter from the UAE).

http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/how-to-obtain-police-clearance-from-ksa-t87598.0.html

I have also read (elsewhere) that they require a copy of the passport that was used when resident in Saudi Arabia as well as copies of the visa and the payment of various fees.

I do not believe this is submitted in person; I would expect it is submitted via mail.  This might be why he was refused as well (in other words, they don't give these out in person, they do it via mail.)  I don't know that this is the case, it is just a possibility.
FSW applied 6/09, denied (med inadmissible) 12/11. JR leave granted 7/12, discontinued 9/12. Spousal app PPR 9/12. Landed 13 October 2012

Since my husband does not live/work in saudi arabia ( KSA) anymore, as per procedure he did visit his nearest consulate of Saudi Arabia in dubai with his passport copy, fingerprints along with the official request letter as received from canadian embassy of abudhabi, however as mentioned in my previous email, the officers at the KSA consulate refused to accept the official request from canadian embassy and turned him away saying they do not process any PCC( police clearance) anymore and cannot help him!?! He visited them many times hoping to meet the right person perhaps and finally get some help..... But was of no use......he was turned away repeatedly from the KSA consulate in dubai. They even said something so ridiculous....that " we work only for the Saudis and no one else!"

Anyhow, my husband even tried to fly to KSA to get the PCC himself but he never managed to get his visa.......he left KSA for over 10 years so have no friends either who could have offered help! Hope you can visualize our helpless situation!! Now we have no choice but to leave everything in the hands of almighty!

Did you read the instructions for obtaining the PCC?

From CIC

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/security/police-cert/mid-east/saudi-arabia.asp

From the Saudi Embassy

Saudi Police Clearance Requirements(No Fees)
In order to receive a Saudi Police clearance we need you to provide the Embassy with the following:

    Copy of your passport.
    Legally issued fingerprints certificate from the police department.
    Copy of your residency papers during the time you resided in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

Cover letter should show clearly printed your address and your telephone number ; applicant should submit his/ her request to the closest Saudi Consulate.
