Evisa- "Your application for an eVisa cannot be completed on-line"

Has anyone got this message before? And were you able to sort it and get the visa issued?

Thanks.

It is simple. It means that the visa has been rejected. 

The only way to sort it is to send someone who is connected e.g. a PRO to immigration and try to get it through. 

Or apply for a refund and reapply.   But if it was a rejection which wasn't due to documents, then it would be rejected again.  And then, your only choice is to apply for a sponsored visa.

So there is no way to knows whats the reason? I am sorry, could you please explain how to get PRO to push it? What is PRO?
My reference number is still there and it doesn’t say ‘rejected’ so i am still hoping..

I thought that having had some visas (sponsored an unsponsored) and using them correctly would have made it a breeze

I think you need to understand a few things:

1) If you got the email that the "application cannot be completed online", then it means that the visa is REJECTED and this is a nice way of saying that.  Doesn't matter what status it shows.  Don't focus on that - it NEVER shows rejected or not approved.  What they are saying is "We cannot process your application for an evisa / unsponsored further so apply through other routes"
2) Immigration will NEVER tell you the reason for the rejection.  A PRO is a public relations / government relations guy.  If you have someone who is very well connected, he may be able to get the existing application through by telling you what extra documents you need to submit.   Otherwise, there is no way except what I described above i.e. refund and reapply
3) Having a previous visa is no guarantee for future visas - anywhere in the world.  And in the GCC, they are arbitrary at times.  I can tell you tons of stories of people who get rejected and it doesn't make any sense

I have gotten this email for my relatives many times.  Sometimes I have been successful in resubmitting with complete documents e.g. air ticket, bank statement WITH bank stamp on it (must), hotel booking or CPR read of the person you are staying with etc.  At others,when I didn't have much time, I have had to involve my guy who has gone there and gotten the application through.

Thanks Xtang, i work in a reputed company across the border in Dammam, Yes, I had done my homework before and applied 3 months bank statements(bank stamp) however they were three separate pdfs due to their 2 mb limitations ( yes compressed them ).

You say your guy got through the application. What exactly extra documents help in your experience?

When my PRO went, the application was approved. I didn't have to submit any documents or anything.

The documents were submitted in the other cases I applied. You just have to think on your case and figure out what will help e.g. If you are on a visit visa in Saudi and not resident there, show home country bank account and flights from home country. Don't confuse them or create doubt.

Worst case, get a sponsored visa through a company, agent or hotel.

I see your point, i am on work-visit in saudi since 2 yrs, last yr also my round flight was from dammam, so was this time, and this is a one year multi entry. Sponsored is just single entry for seven days, hence the obvious choice..

Please can you help me with ur pro guy contact numbers

My PRO doesn't deal with individuals, only large companies.   He accommodates me as I had hired him in my previous company.   But I am an exception.

Is there a question here?

I am asking for your help… I am a Nigerian residing in Saudi Arabia. I arrived in Bahrain on the 31st via the bridge with my car just for tourism. I was told that my visa was suspended upon arrival and I had to obtain the visa online. Note that on their website I had two options: either to receive the visa upon arrival or to obtain the visa electronically… I applied for the visa three times and they were all rejected. Note that I submitted all the documents and more. This and this: Bank statement: A copy of the passport: A copy of the residence: A personal photo: A copy of the sponsor’s residence: Ticket number to cross the bridge by land: Hotel reservation: Last request number 8319083

Contact the Ministry of Passports and Residence, but this was their response. Sorry, but it is not possible to search for a notice for Bahrain online.

I am very happy to know if there is a problem with the method of submitting the documents, although I have already submitted them. Please refer to the written assistance to correct it next time. Thank you,

Does the bank statement have a original seal from the bank?

@logicalindian

Yes

Then it's probably a different reason, usually they don't disclose it.

You have a Saudi iqama?  you tried to enter on the basis of the Iqama and were told you had to apply online?

If this is the case then it is probably a ban or restriction on your nationality.  It happens off and on.  Nothing to be done except wait and hope that this can be addressed in the future or find a sponsor to arrange a visa for you from Bahrain.

Yes I have iqama… in their website written that if I’m Nigerian and I have GCC residency I can take the visa on arrival which means in ports or I can do it online…I already went to the port and they informed me that I need to do it online I just need a tourist visa even if it’s for 5 days it’s enough for me

I think you are not understanding what I am saying.  Forget what is written on the website.  I am talking about administrative bans on nationalities that are applied without announcement.  For example, for years (even now I think), Bangladeshis were not getting visa on arrival on the causeway with Iqamas nor any other type of work/visit visas in the wake of some incidents related to Bangladeshi nationals in Bahrain.  Similarly, visas for Pakistani's were blocked for a year due to another security issue that happened.   These are administrative / immigration enforced bans on nationalities that are in place for some period of time and are not announced.  It's the same everywhere in GCC - like right now, there seems to be a blanket ban on visas for Pakistani's in UAE which has not been announced.......denied in fact.......but people are not getting visas at all.

Not getting a visa on arrival on the causeway with an Iqama when even labor professions get them, is a big sign that there is something at the back end that is stopping it (and it says on the website that you are eligible).   And then being refused for an online visa practically confirms it.

So my suggestion, as before, is to find a sponsor and have them try.

@XTang

Thanx so much brother but one question…how I can get the sponsor visa ?to be honest there is a festival going on there and I just wanna attend it 5 days it’s enough for me

Find someone who can sponsor a visa for you.  Travel agent, hotels etc...........check with them.

But I think it’s gonna be the same thing gonna get rejected if it’s about nationally

Most likely yes.
