Hi everyone! Does anyone have an idea of when approximately Ramadan will take place this year? Will it be around August, September? My husband may be moving to Saudi by June or July and I've heard and read that it takes 1 month to process the visas so me and my daughter can follow him. But do they process visas during Ramadan, or should I just expect to follow him after the holidays are over?
Any feedback would be appreciated, thanks.
When is Ramadan this year?

The Ramadan month will start from 11 August 2010 ISA.
Expect the visa processing to be after Eid vacation.

Ramadan will start 11 August 2010 and End 10 September 2010.
Govt offices slow down in Ramadan and they then have an official holiday for the last 7 days of Ramadan and 5 days after Ramadan.
So your visa process will most probably be after Ramdan, towards the end of September
