    just be candid, tell the truth and you will never be lost in the follow-up questions. hindi naman yan parte ng qualifications. if you bluff, you tend to be nervous and it might be interpreted as lying.

    wala naman problema yan lalo na kung meron na siya police certificate from saudi. Mas ok nga na di na sya bumalik para manila embassy na maghandle ng application niya. Pag sa saudi kasi e sa abu dhabi pa ang processing.

    Is CEM aware that he is out of the country? He will have to come home to submit his passport because he cannot continue to stay in saudi without passport (that is assuming he is in possession of the passport and just send it to CEM). In ksa, the passport is normally with the employer in exchange...

    Address Disappearing August 2011

    the problem is that e-cas sucks. addresses should not be disappearing. sometimes it is not only the address but result entries appear in 2 lines (double entry), showing different things. How would you feel if your online bank transactions will exhibit the same system trouble...would you not be...

    The appointed representative of the sponsor does not automatically make him a representative of the sponsored person. So if you did not appoint one, CEM will communicate with you directly. You and your sponsor are separate applicants... your sponsor for the sponsorship application, and you for...

    once you appoint a representative, he is the only one authorized to transact business with them unless your attention is directly called by cic/embassy. You will only delay the process if you interfere. Remember that you appointed them in your behalf. Your rep has other clients too. There are...

    application/approval for sponsorship, and application for permanent residence are 2 different things. The former refers to the sponsor, while the latter refers to the spouse/partner/dependents who are applying for permanent residence. there can be no application for PR unless there is approval...

    It does not follow that the courier you used in sending will be the one used by embassy to send back. The documents will be delivered to the address you gave, by any means available to them. If you call them about your concern, you will just irritate them. They are not babies.

    Paanong mali yung ipoprocess, e nandun naman yung application form mo, at iyon ang ipoprocess nila. Don't worry about the e-mail...just wait for your e-cas to be activated. Obviously, there is a mistake in the proforma letter used. You will just be insulting the VO if you call them.

    acknowledgment of receipt. Yan ang pinapadala kapag kompleto at acceptable na ang application form at initial documents requirement. Yan din ang official start date of processing or as stated in that letter. Nakalista din dyan yung ibang documents na hihingin nila. First entry sa e-cas.

    @zagalo @kaloka well, I never implied that the call center agents would be lying/sweet-talking all the time. That's why I said their hearts are of different colors, and if the call is valid, it will surely help. It was the call center who informed us that finalization may be taken up end of...

    The results of medical test is not conclusive or final. This will have to be reviewed and approved by the embassy doctor/s. They might ask you for the urine test later on if they found out. Also make sure the clinic/DMP is one of those accredited by CIC/embassy. If you go back, I think they...

    Do not believe every word the call center people tell you. Call several times and you will get different answers. They are very nice and professional, but at times will just say 2 keywords, "just wait". What is sure is that your calls are recorded, and that every time you make an unnecessary...

    mabilis na yung proseso ko compared sa iba kong kasabay. Talaga lang yata na yang last quarter of 2011 e nagkawindang windang yata ang pag-issue ng PR visa. Natanggap nila yung passport ko dahil lumabas sa e-cas ng sponsor ko june pa, 10 days after naipadala. Wala na ako sa qatar. Umuwi ako at...

    DM means approved yung sponsorship (initial approval palang yan). Habang hindi ok yung sponsored person pede pa sila humingi ng documents, specially kung meron inconsistent sa answers dun sa sinubmit sa pinas at dun sa application ng sponsor. Kaya nga importante na yung iniisponsaran ay may copy...

    do i understand right that you have never accessed your e-cas even once? That was the basis of my reply. But do not worry much about that e-cas. In many cases, the visa officer does not even mind updating those info. Many have arrived/landed in canada but the e-cas status never changed since the...

    oh sorry about that, anyway, your e-cas account will be created only when they already have something to write for you. it could mean processing has not started,although they might already be checking your documents. When they come up with some results, they will make your e-cas account to input...

    pag di pa nagstart ang processing wala pa sa e-cas. Pag meron na sila comment sa docs mo or maisusulat for you, that's the time they will create your account.
