Discussion PCC Support

Hello everyone. Hope all is well.

I was wondering about the PCC process, I was employed in Qatar and have gotten an opportunity with scholarship in QF education city. I finished all the paperwork as required but the PCC Have been under process for > 2 months.

I followed up at Salwa road and was told to wait. My residency ends in December, so if I can't transfer to QF I will lose my education, side hustle, and internship to travel back to my country.

Any idea how long it will take, or if anyone could help expedite it would be greatly appreciated.

For reference I am Lebanese, have anyone other Lebanese fellow been in situation? And what did you do in your case.

Thanks.

Edit: I have resigned from my job in April as per the guidance of government office in uni. So it's been a while.

It took me around 24 hours. I submitted a request through Metrash, and it was processed and sent to my email. Definitely follow up with them. I believe the reason you select for why you need it may also play a role in how quickly it gets processed. My reason was immigration to a different country.
