Time Saudi employment attaché take to sign the moh offer letter

Not too sure about your field but the offer letter should be attested by Chamber of Commerce and MOFA - Ministry of Foreign Affairs. That's the general rule followed.
In Medicine, probably they require the MOH to attest your offer letter too? Could be an additional requirement.
I am also waiting for the attestation before I can take my offer letter and degrees to the Saudi Culture Office for further verification and attestation.
This will take time, as you said sometimes, in most of the cases resolution time can go up to four months which is frustrating indeed for the employee, who is anxiously waiting to join as per the DOJ date of joining expected/assigned.

Thank you so much  for replying. Yes, my field is different. Its medical field and offer is ministry offer. So the procedure will be different I guess. I heard it can take upto 6 months , for the employment attache to sign the offer letter. Wish some one who faced the same issue and with ministry offer could reply, as procedure will be almost the same

Dear Sir,hope you are doing well..
I appeared in MOH interview for Al Ahsa project on 26 August for the vacancy of specialist dentist..I was selected and was made to sign the offer letter there itself ..I was also told to get in touch with my agency for future updates..
Last week my agency made advised me to make affidavits and advised me to do HRD attestation..
Two days back my agency returned my affidavits and told the position for dentist is on hold ..the agency can now only process the documents for dentist position once the receive updates from the Saudi health authorities in Delhi ..the Saudi health commission will notify them when to start the processing of documents  for dentist ..
Kindly advise how to proceed and in your experience moving forward how much time I should wait..
Is it okay to wait and better to move forward and look for any other opportunity..
It was really upsetting since I believed that once I got the offer letter it was only a matter of time ..

In this case you should wait, and in your waiting look ather
opportunities because at this stage no body knows that the post is going to be unfreezed
