QIWA Transfer referred to my current employer
I did not receive salary of 3 months but when another company wants to transfer me with Qiwa, I agreed with the contract.
The status is Pending for Approval of current emoloyer,
What will i do.
How can i transfer now
I Recieved request on Qiwa platform from new employer and I accepted that request and after that it's showing pending for current employer approval.
My question is for how many days the request will be there on Qiwa portal if my employer will not accept.
Can someone guide me on this case.
if your contract is finished from current employer and your new employer NAQATY is high then current employer, transfer request will be approved after 14 days automatically,
Pending for notice period this my status now. what will happen after 90 days. It will transfer without current employer approval or not. I don't have any contract with current employer .
Is it possible to cancel or enter exit visa for the employer while in this period.
As of now your current employer can't do anything for you
They can't exit you & even Huroob also not possible
easy way if your sponsor is happily agreed to release you use the support option to cancel the request of transfer by using complain option.
ask for new sponsor to send you request again and ask your current sponsor to accept it without any notice period which he can do.
after that your request will go to MOL for approval and within few minutes to maximum 2 working days i will appear to your new sponsor and rest is clear case for him and you
So here is my problem. I worked 2018-2020. That part we have contract. Hard copy. Signed by me, my old employer and i think moi? So 2020 pandemic hit saudi. No int'l flight. I ask my old employer to find and transfer me. And he did. This is the current one. July 2020 i finished my contract with the old employer. Ask for a transfer. Done. Now this current employer i signed no contract, no whitpapers or hard copy or anything. Just went to his place and start working, but we have an agreement verbally. Amount of the salary, hours of work. And poof nothing happened. Now august 1 i received and accept a new contract from a new employer. My iqama will expire on sept 1 2021. So my question is. what is the base of the contract from my current employer if i signed no papers before transferring and after. We all agreed, The old employer, the new employer and I all agreed that i will work only for a year. Nothing more and nothing less. Actually now im suffering from depression and anxiety. Especially today when he forbids me to enter his shop premises. Now i really dont know what to do
:-pending for current employer approval
But my current employer say in my system no any request coming or no massage coming.
This request expire on 22 august then they will be automatically cancel.
Already I complain to qiwa regarding this issue.
It might be Qiwa technical issue . Even I had the same issue . I was continuously following up with qiwa everyday . I sent email to them, they haven't replied it for almost 1 week . After my transfer request is expired , they replied saying that request is expired . When ever I called their customer service , they said they forwarded the complaint to technical team and they will reply me . But customer service couldn't solve my issue . Ask your current employer to search the transfer request by entering your iqama number in their qiwa system.
Below is my story . And I almost about to loose my job because of qiwa technical issue .
My new employer sent 1st request and I accepted it in my qiwa login , but my current employer couldn't see the request in their system and after 14days the request got expired
Again my new employer sent 2nd request after 14days , still its same issue and I raised complaint to qiwa , but there is no solution and request got expired
Then my new employer sent 3rd request and I accepted it . But the status didn't showed as Pending for current employer approval . It showed as PENDING COMPLETING TRANSFER IN ABSHER BY NEW EMPLOYER . Now my new employer called me and said it will be transferd by tomorrow and as per them they finished all the formalities . They will update me the transfer status tomorrow . They said 99 % transfer will be done .
Suggestions: Ask your current employer to prepare NOC letter stating that they do not have objection to transfer you to another company . Send that letter and write your complete issue to qiwa along with the transfer request number and your current employer establishment number by email to qiwa . Also its better to give that NOC letter to new employer and ask them to go and approach ministry of labour and try to do transfer manually from MOL .
NOTE : when you are sending email to Qiwa , send it in Arabic language , so that you will receive reply a bit fast . Also try to get information from all the sources , because it will take plenty of time to finish this process .
Means by the third attempt your application not be referred to your current employer approval? Also its just one new employer or different.?
Thanks and best regards🙏🏻
Your 3rd attempt was not gone to current employer approval !
Or .is your current employer approved for 3rd attempt!!
Kindly explain what you known
yes its only one new employer who sent me transfer request for 3 times .
In my case , third request didnt went to current employer approval . May be its because my current employer is in red category

I can transfer to a new employer without approval for my current employer or no?
Still you need current employer approval.
You can go without approval only in below conditions
if your iqama is not renewed for more then a month
if your employer did not pay you 3 months salary
if your employer is in red status in naqtat

Same issue here with me. On 18 Aug'21 new employer sent me transfer request that I accepted. Then it is showing 'pending with current employer' but my current employer (niqatat small red) havent received any request on his QIWA platform, so I'm hanging in air. What to do? Iqama is valid.
My new employer had already transfer me to his name that i do not even know. Just found out later that Qiwa is for transfer he just told me that if i receive a code give it to him and i did. And he do all that thing in qiwa and his the one also approved the contract that he made without my consent and now i am under his sponsorship and dont like the contract. Can i stil cancel the transfer?
I have accepted a contract from a new company and now the Qiwa status shows as "Pending for Current Employer Approval", but the current employer claims that he has not received any request for approval,
Does anyone know the reason for that ? Is there a specific time frame for the request to reflect in current employers system ?
Since my current is not allowing me to transfer:
1. Do i have any chance like my colleague (auto tranfer) since my iqama expired during notice period?
2. After how many days or months should i apply in Qiwa to get an auto tranfer like my colleague?
3. If i apply again in 6th September (6-09-21). will i get an auto tranfer?

Since my colleague's Iqama bieng expired for 2 months, his transfer has been completed within 2 days after the request.(7-06-21). My case was different, my iqama was valid then it expires on 27-08-21. The staus is 'Pending for notice period completion' and days remaining for it is 1 day(5-09-21). Below status it says transfer date is '5-09-21'.

your can get auto transfer only one your iqama is expired for more then or equal to two months
if you did not get salary form last 3 months. or if your company is be RED in naqtat.
I got a new job offer if I accept it will I get immediate transfer or should I wait for one month of expiry
