They are very uncooperative. Go to my website/guide and I have a page there for every country and what the procedures are for police clearance.

Saudi is a waiver country, you can not obtain the police certificate except in person, the embassy knows this so the requirement is waived.

We asked this question before and we got a response of saudi is a waiver country but we still decided to get the police clearance while i was in saudi. We dont know what future holds for us during the interview and Yes you are right saudi is very hassle country to get the police clearance but it was the only way to make me and my fiance stop worrying about not having a police clearance from saudi during the interview. It took me almost a month before i got my police clearance and i got 3 days leave work from the hospital and i was about to lose my patience.

I still don't have my interview yet. They don't ask for it then it's good but if they going to ask for it I am ready since I have mine to show it to them.

Let us know if they ask for it. I'd be curious to know. Good luck with your interview. It sounds like you are ready.

Being your were there, it is a simple process to obtain the PC. The CO might get a grin out of you having a PC from Saudi
