Hi guys, I'm also pinoy planning to study in Canada but in CGA-BC, I am a CPA here and would like to upgrade to CGA in Canada. I was informed that they have sent my Letter of Acceptance but I haven't paid any tuition from their institution yet. To those who have approved student permit like RMT_Michener, did you undergo an interview or not anymore? Please advise so I can prepare.... Thank you!

I'm not really sure.. but I think you can check it online. Did they ask you for your passport already? Done with medical too?

yeah, true that! i'm not entirely sure also if i can go to the embassy without an appointment here in Manila, but in their website it is stated that they are open to the public mon-thurs 8-10 hmmmmm

sunduin ko na kaya lol
 
My boyfriend's visa application there in the Philippines was quick and smooth flowing. Wag kayo masyadong magstress out, it'll be okay. Took him around 2 months to get everything done. Natakot nga kami kasi yung documents na submit niya yung hindi specifically pang pinas, but with optimism and prayers na kuha naman din niya visa niya. He will be coming to Canada on Aug 26 to be with me!!! :)


- Key thing para sa visa application there in Manila is to really prove to them that you're financially capable, and that babalik ka talaga sa Pilipinas after.

- GOOD LUCK!!!

Hi annann, ano daw yung mga questions sa kanya sa interview? Magkano dapat yung laman ng bank statement? One more question, pano magpay ng processing fee at saan? Pupunta ba ako mismo sa office ng Canada-Embassy Manila? Di ko makita sa website e.

Hoping for your reply. Thanks!
 
wala siyang interview naman. One key thing na meron siya is that he got this letter from his school there sa pinas na yung studies niya sa canada will serve as his internship. And kasali na don yung kailangan niyang magsubmit nang Transcripts, diploma, etc. And if ever di na siya pumapasok sa school ay iproclaim siyang AWOL ba yon, not sure.

- and for the money part, yung mom niya nag sponsor sa kanya. letter and all procaliming na magsupport siya financially. and para tuition fee in one year+ $10,000. tignan mu sa checklist kung first year lang or hanggang second year, kase feeling ko first year lang talaga. :)

- for the processing fee, i believe may sinend na money along sa application. yung assistant ng mom niya nagsubmit, you can find out sa cic.gc.ca website, then go the pinas page :)

- did you apply already? :)

thanks for the reply. I will apply as soon as I finalize all the reqmts., I received a letter of acceptance from certified general accountants association in BC already. thanks sa info, grabe mas madami pala reqmts dito sa Embassy Manila now ko lang nakita... yung sa main cic website kasi konti lang... your right 1 year tuition + $10,000 kaso need ng bank book and statements for the past 24 months,,, OMG ang tagal namang history nito :'( ... pa-ask naman bf mo if pwede bank statement lang kahit wala na passbook... :P

Need pa ng Official Fee Schedule at Personal Study Plan. Paki-ask naman ulit bf mo san nya kinuha yung official fee schedule please at baka may format siya nung personal study plan pacopy naman hehe... ayoko kc mg-consultant ang mahal.

Meron din ako kamaganak na mag-sponsor sa kin sa accommodation at meals jan kaso baka one cause for refusal pa daw yun kaya ayoko sana ideclare, totoo kaya yun?
