 |
|
Greetings,
About two years ago I was rejected by SACM because my BA was from a university they didn't recognize -- no idea why.
I have an MA now and I was wondering if I sent that in to be authenticated without the BA would I be qualified for a iqama? |

| You mean, would you qualify for an employment visa using just your MA. You only need to submit one degree to the SACM for visa purposes. So if your MA is from an accredited US/UK/Canadian... university and did not entail any online coursework, then yes, it's the degree you'd present (and apply for the position with) if it meets the stated requirements per the job ad. |

| And the catch is that they will only count experience gained AFTER the MA, so you would start at a fairly low salary. |
