hi,

may i ask kung gaano katagal relationship ninyo, when you applied your application?

my husband and I were in a relationship 9months then we decided to get married, and we are now 3months married... will the length of the relationship affect the application?

your responses will be a lot of relief and help to us, im here in the philippines and my husband is now back in canada.

Thanks GB! :)
walang ganun! heheh! basta genuine, and may proof of relationship kau, maaprove yan. :) I know someone, mas maikli pa dyan, nandito na ung hubby nung friend ng mother ko. :) so goodluck on your application!

hi just click on my signature below, input your information then, i will update our spreadsheet para makita mo timeline mo. :) AOR is acknowledgement of receipt (minsan narereceive thru mail or email) pero mostly, after ng sponsor approval, at naipadala na ang mga docs sa CEM, PPR ang marereceive mong letter thru postmail. It is either AOR or PPR, pero usually PPR. CEM won't usually acknowledge na nareceive nila ung mga sinend mong docs, or if ngemail ka or fax. Un ang nakkafrustrate kasi it will keep you thinking kung nareceive ba nila or hindi. We just trust and faith in God, na all is well and in due process. :)

hi ischie! call me SOPHIE na lang. congrats ha, at long last may visa ka na :) thank you sooooo much for answering all my concerns. through your help, cleared na lahat. Yun nga lang ang nakaka disappoint kase walang update especially my ECAS, application received pa rin ako to think na ang aga ko na PPR :D tama ka jan sis, trust & faith in God is our best armor esp during this time. kaya nga araw-araw bago ko pumasok sa work walang palya ang paghaplos ko kay Mama Mary asking & hoping that everything is in the right track ;) nga pala, paki chek na lang, nag-post na ako ng timeline ko, nadoble ko nga eh ;D thanks sis!

Wala lang un. Kasi kapag inedit ko ung forum profile info ko dito. Fixed na ung nklgay, aor lng walang ppr. Eh ppr yan. Hehe! If gusto mo din lagyan un sau, click mo ung "profile" located on the upper right hand of the screen tapos go to "forum profile information" sa may left side naman. Tapos lgyan mo lng info. U can put ur own signature too. Kasi minsan ung ibang kaforums natin panay any tanong sa timeline. So ayan para mas mabilis makita. Heheh!

May tanong lang ako sa mga nareceive na ng PPR. Kasama ba sa hiningi nila ang photos sa PPR nyo? Kasi sa PPR ng asawa ko eh passport at appendix A lang daw ang kelangan nyang isubmit.. Ilang ulit nya binasa ang letter, wala talagang hininging photos..Pero sa PPR na natanggap nya, may Appendix B, which contains specifications for the photo size.. Kaya nagdecide na lang cya na ang ipinacourier nya lang eh passport, filled-out appendix A, and copy of the PPR. Kasi yon lang ang pinapasubmit based sa PPR nya.

Narecall ko bigla na kelangan talaga ang recent photo kasi i-aaffix nila yon sa COPR, unless gamitin nila yong photos na sinubmit kasama ng application package I mailed to Missisauga..

Naguluhan lang ako kasi may thread akong nabasa na nagsubmit sila ng photos together with the passport and appendix a. Baka kasi kelangan talaga ang photos, and it may cause delay kung di nakapagsubmit...


Thanks.

pag wala naman sila request sa asawa mo about photo meaning hindi kasama ang photo
basta kung ano lang hiningi un lang ipass ng asawa mo ok lang yan wala naman pala request ang embassy eh..madalas din naman d din nila magagamit lahat ung 9 na photos na pinass naten.
