    Yes, It seems to take a very long time. The other issue is that they do not update ecas in a timely fashion. So we are blind as to what is the status of our files. They must be short staffed in Philippines.

    After looking at spreadsheet I cannot figure out why some people get PPR after 2 weeks and some people get it months later. They said that use of representative does not make it faster but seems that it does.

    Big help for me too, even though I don't understand Tagalog. ;D It was frustrating talking CiC hotline here as they have no idea what happens to file once transferred to CEM.

    I agree 100% We was faced with same situation and we had to follow rules. My wife also made an appointment for the actual day we got married in advance of my arrival. I always enjoy my visit to Philippines, he should try to spend a few more days and enjoy the weather as it is getting colder here.

    Hi All, I spoke with CIC hotline 2 weeks ago and had them check with i.T department. I also kept checking every hour. They advised that they only update ecas once every 24 hours.
