How To Save SQL Server 2012 Import Data Package

While using the Import Data wizard within SQL Server Management Studio, when I get to the Save and Execute Package screen (see attached file), the Save SSIS Package portion (outlined in red) is missing. I had our SQL Server support team grant me INSERT permissions on the msdb database but I still don't have the ability to save the package.

Hi,
sorry but attachment is missing.
Thanks

Apart from the missing attachment.

The permission required should be granting db_dtsoperator role to your user.

I am using SQL Server Standard edition.
Are you running from the server or remotely from your PC?
Vitor-
Remotely from my PC.  I have asked our SQL Server administrator to grant the db_dtsoperator role to me.
Vitor-
My administrator said "In SQL 2012, there is db_ssisoperator instead of db_dtsoperator" and he granted me this permission. Unfortunately, this did not give me the ability to save the package, even after I rebooted the my computer to refresh my credentials. Any ideas?

Ok but there's no need to reboot. Just close the connection and open new one.
There are two more roles related to SSIS and with more permissions: db_ssisadmin  and db_ssisltduser. He can give the maximum permissions (db_ssisadmin) so you can check if it works. Remember that you don't need to reboot.
Vitor-
My administrator added those two roles for me and I still cannot save the package.
Vitor-
Do you have nay more suggestions?
Sorry but no. The only thing that is coming to my mind is that you're using SQL Express but you already told me that you're using Standard Edition.
We found out that, although we installed SQL Server Standard Edition on my client computer, because I had previously installed SQL Server Express Edition on the computer, SQL Server Management Studio was preventing the saving of import packages. You were correct with your solution even though we did not see how that could be the problem.
