Halos sabay Tayo ng application. Higpit ng immigration officer napunta saakin need 1st apply refused. June 5 release ng travel history ko

Pahingi po ng tulong...kapatid, mic-mic, scorpio, peej at mga champions po dito.

I checked requirements sa VFS Dubai and they require SOP - with set of questions na hinahanap nila sa SOP.
I have the guidelines which mic-mic have posted before and I will use that - but then parang maganda rin kung me mabasa ako na completed SOP na (successful SOP na) para mas mapaganda ang construction ng letter.

Pasend naman ng copies ng SOP nyo kung pede, eto email ko.

Hello everyone! It's been quite some time from my last post and ambilis talaga umusad nitong thread na ito!

My visa got approved even though I was thinking na baka madeny ang application ko due to the factors na other people have mentioned here before like

My passport validity, it will be expiring on Jan 2018 but I'll be taking up a 2 year course (medyo hassle lang na magrenew ako ng passport etc.. pagdating dun pero that's the consequence, atat kasi ako makaalis. haha)
I have stayed in USA (J-1) for 1 year and thankfully they didn't asked for any FBI clearance (Do take note na I applied right away last January 2017 pagbalik ko dito sa PH pero up until now wala parin status kung kelan ko marereceive FBI clearance ko)
My parents are retired and have no source of income other than the monthly allotment coming from my brother
My grades are mediocre at bestand I have quite a few failing marks as well. I didn't even include the transcript of the 1st college that I was admitted to because I only passed 2 subjects there! In addition to that, it took me 6 years to finish a freakin 4 year course.

All in all, halos wala talaga akong confidence na makakapasa ako kaya I poured my heart out sa study plan ko. 2 pages lang naman siya pero nilagay ko talaga dun lahat ng reasons like why my grades were low, why I wanted to study again, why I took up the said course, why I wanted to study in Canada so and so forth... Nahirapan lang ako magexplain sa "ties" ang nilagay ko nalang parents ko saka I plan to work in the academe (imagine lakas loob ko no? haha).

Sa upfront medical wala naman akong naging issue and I only paid yung around 7k pesos sa St. Lukes BGC. Buti nalang talaga wala ako piercing or tattoo kasi yung ibang kasama ko umabot ng around 18k+ sa medical. Although sabi need ko daw mag pa MMRvaccine kasi requirement daw yung sa port of entry even though I've read other reports na hindi naman daw sila hinihingan ng ganun. Yung isa ko ngang kasama sa agency di sinabihan need magpavaccine e. Pero I'll do it nalang this week for piece of mind. Saka useful naman yun for sure.

As for my financial capability, my parents are sponsoring me and I submitted bank certs/statements worth 950k pesos, 2 land titles ng parents and then lastly, coe and letter of support ng parents and ng brother ko. Like everyone else, I already paid the 1st semester tuition fees to solidify my claims na magaaral talaga ako. I did not take IELTS, pero I have a letter of IELTS exemption and then English letter (mode of language) from my local university.

Anyways, finally I'm starting over again! This time I'll make it right na talaga and I'll give my all sa studies ko. Sana lang kayanin ko din isustain sarili ko sa Canada since I want to continue being independent and avoid asking money from my parents as much as possible. So far yung ipon ko from US will suffice for a year's worth of tuition fee. Gagawan ko nalang ng paraan dun at kapag super di na talaga kaya that's the only time I will ask assistance from them. Just to let you all know, I've heard a lot statements coming from people like my co-workers/managers/professors saying na kapag hindi ka ganito blah blah di ka maging successful sa industry na to etc... Sometimes I get depressed pero it became my motivation nalang to even work harder and prove to myself na kaya ko. So far so good... Slowly but surely I'm trying to achieve my dreams!

Good luck to everyone!

hi just want to your SOP. Gzto ko Lang sana makakuha ng ideas how to explain my thoughts. Thank you jenny_empress18@yahoo.com

Anyone knows whether declaring more than USD 10,000 at BOC will lead to taxes? Or is it just for their record-keeping? Has anyone filled out this form?


This refers to your electronic mail requesting for information on our existing rules on cross border transfer of currencies. In this regard, please be advised that under Section 4.2 of the Manual of Regulations on Foreign Exchange Transactions, as recently amended by Circular No. 922 (effective 15 September 2016), any person may bring into or take out of the Philippines foreign currency, as well as other foreign currency denominated bearer monetary instruments. However, for amounts in excess of US$10,000 or its equivalent, these should be declared in writing using the prescribed “Foreign Currency and Other FX-Denominated Bearer Monetary Instruments Declaration Form” which is available at the BOC desk in the arrival/departure areas of all international airports and seaports.

Hello venice! Sure just PM me. Nga pala, hindi po ako bagay tawagin na ate

By the way, for those who have been approved a student visa recently, kindly PM for the fb page.

Hi Mic-Mic - meron ba kayo fb page bukod s forum na toh?

 

[emc2]

Yup, parang ganun na rin. Kase sa huli, nilagay ko "I humbly request that you kindly consider my application for a study permit this time." Hehe!

Yup, sa 2nd SOP ko, in-address ko yung reasons ng refusal ko.

Sir Floje, pwede po ba maka hingi ng SOP nyu po?
