Failed application for profession change

What was the new profession you applied for?. And in how many days you received the answer from the ministry of interior?.  I have recently applied for a change of profession, it is approved by MOL still waiting for the ministry of interior approval.

The same case happened to me.
MY Admin told to me that ministry of labor accepted by request and then, later on, it was rejected.
My admin said, its new process and they don't know the reason for rejection.

Alhumdolillah profession successfully changed to chemist

Hello Brother Ejaz, How did you change the profession on your iqama after rejection initially?
I have the same issue, MOL accepted my request but MOI rejected it.

Tell your hr to resubmit the request in person. They will accept it hopefully.

@brite.star80 my HR said that MOI rejected my request and they will try again after the festive season.
But when I checked the status online, it says '' حالة الطلب في وزارة العمل : بانتظار رد الداخلية''
which translates to '' Application status in the Ministry of Labor: Awaiting an internal response.
I also tweeted to the ministry regarding this and they replied ''you must complete the procedures for requesting a change of profession from passports''

What does it mean?
Can someone please explain

Alhamdulillah, now the profession on my iqama has been successfully changed from Normal Labor to General Mechanical Engineer.

Assalaamualaikum..

How long did it take for the ministry of labor to reply on the request?

19 days exactly due to Eid Holidays.

Thanks for your response brother. Did your HR had to visit the labor office to show the original certificates?

No brother, they did not visit in person.
Even the last time when my application for profession change got rejected, it was not due to Jawazat or MOL problem. My HR person was a fool and he did not request the profession change through Muqeem. Had he done it before, my application would have been accepted within a day or two by MOL and MOI for the profession change.

Make sure your company applies the profession change through Muqeem as soon as they request for Profession change through MOL.

I see. Thank you so much for the info brother. Allahbless you.

Brother ia it allowed to change profession from computer programmer to accountant

Hi Friends,
Greetings....

could you please advise me procedure for change of profession after IQAMA expiry.

@Ejaz ahmes what did you do after the time it was first rejected?please i need the your advise

Hello Jasmin,

It's been 4 years since Ejaz ahmes was last active.

I don't think that he will be able to share his experience with you...

In case you have any questions, kindly ask them on the Saudi Arabia forum itself.

All the best,

Yoginee
