Sure - agreed! Do we know anyone who has been able to secure the PPR on either the old (pre 7th Sep) or new (post 7th sep) applications?

That's what I'm trying to find out.

Even if one of us gets PPR from Saudi Arabia, we will know that they are processing at this time.

Hopefully soon!

Exactly what I was thinking right now

There's no way to even speak to anyone about this

I sent an email to Riyadh office and this is the response I got regarding my application:

"Please be informed that your application is in queue to be review by an officer.
While we are making our best efforts to process applications as quickly as possible we cannot give you an exact date on which your application will be finalized, due to the increased number of applications our office is receiving."

I'm hoping the queue is not too long.


Did anyone get any update?

This is encouraging! Did you send a free text email or a specific format? Also how long it took to get the reply?

Sent a regular email with my questions

I also called the embassy today to find out if they were open yesterday and they were.

This is the exact same email I received in 2017 !!!

Oh wow!

I know this is a generic response. But I'm still hoping they process soon

Was your application accepted after this email?

+90% of applications are refused for non-Saudis, I worked in VAC that's why I know.

I appreciate your input.

If let's say that is the case then why have you applied again?

Also, my questions was, if you had received any response after the email reply?

I applied for my brother, he has a good profile + US + UK + France visa.
He was also refused from Canada in 2017.
I applied for him in June 2021 and still waiting for a decision.
