hi everyone. paki clarify naman po, napag halo halo ko na information kakabasa ko.. ang properties ba ng parents pwedeng maiconsider as home ties or for added proof of funds lang?

And.. ang owp po ba for the spouse will be limited to 20 hrs a week or full time?

Thank you all

Hello jowna! Sa properties ng parents ang alam ko pang additional proof of funds lang talaga. And sa OWP ng spouse, full time sya mag work.

Welcome po. ;) Sa mga nabasa ko dito talagang pang support lang sa funds ang properties. Wait nalang natin comment ng mga seniors kung may opinion sila about sa concern mo. ;)

opo nga eh. paranga same lang po tayo. 1 yr and 7 months naman po kmi ng husband ko na married. Never pa po ako nkpagtravel abroad :( :( :( Hopefully, hindi ko maging problem yun ang reason na lang nag nilagay ko I find it more convenient and patriotic to travel locally so I may able to help local bussinesess and promote tourism in the country.. ;D ;D 1 month namin ginagawa yung SOP. haist..
You don't need to worry kung wala kang travel history :) sure it helps kung meron ka na, pero hindi naman yan barrier kung wala. Mas importante iprove mo that you have a stable work history and life here in the Philippines.

It is safer to get a 2 year course, lalo na sa current immigration rules. A 1 year PGWP is simply too tight a timeline for me. Imagine, requirements for PR is to have at least one (1) year Canadian work experience, plus magfa-file ka pa. In some provinces filing takes up to 1 year for some applications to be approved, kaya ayoko mag-risk. It may be different if you are from a medical course but for business graduates like me, too much pressure to find a job after graduation. Kaya ayan naniguro hehe

Hi im newbie here! Anyone send their application by paper based? Or mail?
I applied study permit and my husband as my accompanying dependent and applied TRV. We send our application june 12, 2015 and received by embassy june 15. I got an email from cic for medical instruction last june 19, i did the med. june 29 the result was send last july 2 accdng to the clinic.
I am very worried because til now i didnt receive any email from the embassy for my husband's medical or so on. So any advise? I dont know what is the status of our application. Thanks
Paper based ako pero single applicant lang. IIRC, si mic-mic similar case sa yo, the medical requests for his dependents was sent later. Pero nagrant naman yung visa ata .... he will be in a better position to advise you. Don't worry, ganito talaga - waiting game for the embassy.

Added proof of funds lang. If it were YOUR property, diyan na macoconsider na home ties. Also future earnings (income, expected inheritance) do not count as proof of funds kasi your funds have to be liquid. You may still include them in your application, pero IMO not necessary na.

@scorpio1641 oo nga eh sobra na kakaparanoid ang mghintay. Kase after med instruction sakin wala na nko natanggap plus wala rin ako nattanggap na update para sa husband ko. September intake kase ako s centennial one month nalang so praning na praning nko. :-X pang7th week na ng application namen ngayon day na to. And pagtinatrack ko sa vfs yun application namen palaging "processing" ang lumalabas. Hopefully we receive good news from cic. ;)

Maayong gabii Scorpio! Mu agree mi sa imo. :D Kahit diploma and certificate na ang course na kukunin ko sana, 1.5 years lang ang duration kaya alangan na kami lalo marami ng sumuporta na mas maganda ang 2 yrs kahit pa medically related ang course namin. Mahirap na hehe.

thanks scorpio and ibong_adarna.

sa proof of funds medyo ok naman kami, not too much but enough.

di lang naman properties ang basehan ng home ties di ba? established naman ang family ni hubby sa pinas with regards to business and properties, ang buong family ko naman andito sa Saudi.

etong part kasi nato dilemma namin eh, although we will try to get letters from our employers that they will be willing to hire us again after the studies, and probably show a business proposal kung di na kami babalik dito sa Saudi.

plano pala namin is hubby will be SP (graphic or digital media) and me OWP with toddler TRV.

I hope we can get through.

Hi Bringourdfries! Congrats na grant kayong dalawa! :D Pwede ko malaman timeline nyo? What do you think are the reasons which made your case stronger even if you both applied at the same time? ;)

Regarding po sa question mo, ang alam ko po sa W-1 visa legal ka na binibigyan ng canada ng authority na mag work dun. May employer ka na po ba nakuha doon kahit nandito ka pa sa pinas?
Thanks for the reply Ibong Adarna. Sa Amin we made sure complete requirements and we opted for upfront medical. We submitted application June 20. Got approval July 22. Got passports back kanina.

As for my original question, di kaya ako harangin Sa NAIA dahil worker ang visa Ko? May kailangan BA ako kunin Sa POEA na certificate na di ako OFW Kasi open ang work permit Ko and wala pa ako employer?

Hello! Babies had an OWP when he landed here but he was help in our immigration for about 30 mins. Parang hinahanapan yata siya ng PDOS pero one of PDOS requirement is to have an overseas employment contract so todo e plain pa daw sila. They let him go naman after. Ptobably just show you LOI.

Buti pa kayo nakuha agad visa. My wife also did the upfront medical since required sa kanya upfront dahil teacher siya. She's on her fifth week now and wala pa balita for passport request :( Sana dumating na agad kasi hinihintay na siya ng employer niya... her work starts in three weeksm WaAahhh!!!

Brintouthefries, I think dapat hindi na talaga mag PDOS kasi open work permit. wala naman ipapakita na contract so hindi na dapat. si babies pinalusot naman. I forgot to mention that he flew from Cebu so people there may not be familiar with an OWP.

CGR, di d you apply separately? We applied separately and then they lodged theirs when I got mine na. It's been almost 2 weeks na since she got the medical result "PASSED" from mycic... Sana talaga dumating na visa nila kasi miss ko na sila agad... 3 days pa lang ako dito, pero feeling ko ang laki na ng nilaki ng toddler namin hehehe

Hi mic-mic,


Verify ko lang regarding sa medical ng misis mo, my husband is working in the hospital. Is it necessary for him to have an upfront medical or possible naman na sabay na kami if nirequire na kami? Thanks

Hi mic-mic, sabay namen inapply through paper based kase yun advise ng consultancy namen then d ko na alam kung pasado ba med exam ko kase wala namn advise ang clinic pero siguro passed yun kase sabe forwarded na at wala namn na pinagawa sakin na ibang lab test. Oo nga super nakakahome sick yun sana makasunod na sila agad sayo asap. Hoping na sana matanggap nntin lht ng passport with visa approved hehe. Pagpaper based kase wala ibng pwede tracking aside from vfs kaya d ko alm what happened about my medical.
