Salaam
I was wondering if someone can please help me. I have just accepted a job as teacher with PNU, through a recruitment agency 'teach away'. From the first day of contact with them (back in Feb) it was made very clear that I will be travelling with my husband, they said that he would be my dependant and they even took his passport copy and in my contract it says that my spouse and I get return flights home and are entitled to housing allowance rather then sharing accommodation.
Right up to when I signed my contract (last week) it was still the understanding that my husband will be with me but now when I'm applying for my visa I've be told that not only can I not sponsor my husband as dependant but the ministry of labour do not issue family visas for teachers (unless they have Masters), even when they arrive in Saudi. Meaning that i cant have my husband at all with me. That's crazy!!!!! I've been told that this has just be implemented.
I would really appreciate some advice and hear from people who are or were in the same boat as me, surely, i'm not the only one!!!!
