PSV/DataFlow: often several weeks; issuer responsiveness is the main variable.
Assessment: depends on testing slots and your preparation.
SCFHS review: driven by volume and file completeness.
Immigration link: after an offer, your employer runs Work Visa → Iqama; you may practise only when registration + Iqama + privileging are active. (Always check the latest SCFHS and Prometric notes for any changes.) dataflowgroup.com+1
Name/date mismatches across passport, CV, references and licences → make them identical before filing.

Wrong exam blueprint/category → confirm before booking. scfhs.org.sa
Low-quality scans or informal translations → rescan in colour; use certified translations where required.
Assuming auto-transfer from other GCC licences → SCFHS evaluates to its own standards; plan for gaps. scfhs.org.sa

1) Set up your Mumaris+ account the right way
2) Classification vs. Registration (know the difference)
3) Primary Source Verification (PSV/DataFlow)
SCFHS requires PSV of key credentials via the DataFlow Group (or equivalent). Education, licence/Good Standing and employment are verified directly with issuers. Delays usually come from slow responses at universities or former employers—contact them early and confirm who will answer DataFlow emails. dataflowgroup.com
Smart prep checklist

Keep confirmations and link results in Mumaris+. (English tests—OET/IELTS—are often employer policy rather than an SCFHS requirement; confirm with HR.) Prometric+2
