Thank you Rk19!! No call or email received from CEM or courier. My husband got it through DHL. They charge 95 pesos upon delivery. He will be attending PDOS before his departure :)

Hi Kristine! Congrats to u and to ur husband. We just got PPR this week, and have sent it already to CEM. I hope and pray that my husband will have Visa next month. I just have a question though, aside from the passport, how did your husband got the rest of the documents? I know CEM will give back the pictures, cards, etc. Did it come together with the passport? Thanks!

Hi gabrielsilang! Thank you! Congrats on the PPR. The rest of the documents (photos, cards) came with the DHL package along with the passport and COPR. There was also a document saying that he needs to attend PDOS before he leaves.

Are you a Canadian Citizen or a PR yourself Kristine?
If you are a Canadian you spouse will need to attend the GCP/GCS seminar through the CFO before he leaves.
PDOS is good but not mandatory. GCS is required. He will get a certificate and some sort of stamp or sticker in his passport permitting him to leave the Philippines.

For more information..... http://www.cfo.gov.ph/

Thank you Chris! I will let my husband know. I am a Canadian citizen. Hopefully it isn't too difficult to get a slot.

Thanks Kristine! I don't know how it would be for my husband though, because he's already here in Canada. We applied outland because we figured it will work for us better. Do you know if he still needs to go back to the Philippines and do a PDOS?

It is not too hard to get a slot, tell your husband this link here is to use if he will go to Manila to complete it.
