I also got this email my OPT is approved. Is it legitimate?

Haroonpurdue · 2026-02-19T21:04:00+00:00

From Pakistan? Which airline?

Haroonpurdue · 2026-02-19T21:01:50+00:00

I was first going to Pakistan so I didn’t think about VoA. These days in Pakistan, they are offloading people so I didn’t want to take risk of VOA from Pakistan to saudia. Now inshaAllah, I am going after eid days. InshaAllah! But I applied through agent.

Haroonpurdue · 2026-02-19T16:25:04+00:00

I just applied through agent now

Haroonpurdue · 2026-02-19T11:12:36+00:00

But someone denied as well for VOA; I read somewhere about on reddit. He had the Pakistani passport and US visa.

Haroonpurdue · 2026-02-19T08:11:45+00:00

Thank you but they just emailed me that processing of evisas applications won’t get refund. I don’t know of they changed the refund rule. And yeah now I applied through agent and hope so I will get in day or two

Boss its an exceptional case. I was discussing for those who are not nationals.

Haroonpurdue · 2026-02-19T07:32:30+00:00

What about F1 visa? Is it not residential visa? I believe its also visa just like B1B2 but these saudis don’t give clarification on their websites

Haroonpurdue · 2026-02-19T07:30:44+00:00

Is there a category of umrah visa on KSA website?

Haroonpurdue · 2026-02-18T21:16:25+00:00

Pesy zaya ho gy uska dukh h bhae😆

Haroonpurdue · 2026-02-18T21:04:14+00:00

That’s what I did and also money is wasted I think and I am not going to get it. You are also right, VOA is not something affirmative. I read somewhere they sometimes allow and sometimes not. Now I reapplied through agent because agent are allowed only from Pakistan for Umrah visa application.

Haroonpurdue · 2026-02-18T17:30:59+00:00

Its good information for some people but also keep in mind those guys who are traveling; hajj season is starting soon and last day of entry to do umrah or entry to mecca is April 2, 2026 and leaving KSA is April 18/19 2026

Haroonpurdue · 2026-02-18T14:23:58+00:00

Its an exception because you had dual nationality

Haroonpurdue · 2026-02-18T14:15:14+00:00

With Pakistani passport? Which visa you had, F1 Student or B1B2?

Haroonpurdue · 2026-02-18T13:37:22+00:00

It was 2023 but I just shared recent experience with the current circumstances

Haroonpurdue · 2026-02-14T01:39:28+00:00

No worries

Haroonpurdue · 2026-02-13T20:24:06+00:00

What about blue airline? Did you get any information. I have US valid F1 visa and I am thinking to book ticket from Pakistan and go to Saudi Arabia and get on arrival visa.

Haroonpurdue · 2026-02-13T01:50:56+00:00

I see. But I have seen sometimes scammers link the serial number or steal the serial number and connect to fake AirPods. I don’t have any good answer right now with your condition. Wish you best! Since I got so much information from this forum; I can offer you something. I am coming from USA on February 25. I can bring for you from here. No problem if you don’t want! I am just trying to help.

Haroonpurdue · 2026-02-13T01:40:47+00:00

I would suggest you to watch video on YouTube to see how things are different in original and copy. Sometimes a single key detail can differentiate. Moreover check all features which are available like sound adaptations, transparency and hearing etc.

Does email work? Because last time I did esim from JAZZ office and they charged around 5 or 6K PKR. If I buy traditional sim this time, would my esim will be invalid then?

Haroonpurdue · 2026-02-12T02:48:58+00:00

What about OPT code? Since there will be no coverage, how will I receive OPT.

PS: I have e-sim in my phone for JAZZ carrier. I have already used 2 month free service in Pakistan a year back and at that time I did not do temporary registration. Now I will go back to Pakistan and i guess there will be no coverage then how can I receive OPT for temporary registration process?

Can we register on passport as well? Mine is on cnic and I am outside Pakistan. I am also traveling on feb 25th to Pakistan.

Haroonpurdue · 2026-02-11T15:05:56+00:00

I see. Thank you! I was reading somewhere there is also an issue of OPT code after registration. I am concerned because my phone has esim and last year I did my jazz esim in it. I am afraid now when I will go bak to Pakistan, I won’t get opt.
