Dear Mr.Paldey, Nice to hear that you plan to join Zamil. This is a big group having different divisions based on their type of steel business. If the salary what you mentioned is basic then you may be entitled to get house rent and I hope it will be 3 or 4 basics per annum depending on the company's policy and also transport allowance. You can find a suitable accommdation for about SR 15000 per annum as rent. Other expenses will not be more than 40-50% of your salary. Hence I feel you must be able save up to SR 2500 comfortably. If you need more information please do contact me. All the best. Sundar

hello sir! I have one more question.............. how much time it will take to get my wife VISA after my arrival to DAMMAM. Need a urgent reply......... regards pal
Hello Paldey sir, My personal experience....I landed in Saudi, exactly 2 months after my Husband's arrival here. Once you come here, after your medicals, you will have to wait for your Iqama (residence permit) to be issued..It could take about month or so. After that you can immediately apply for your wife's visa. My DH got my visa the same day he submitted the papers/documents for the same. All the best . Bye
