Hi guys
Just wanted to clear some doubts,i received an email from Canadian Embassy in Manila asking me to submit a form wherein i need to give my address & contact details of course aside from the basic informations but the problem is i am currently living & working in Saudi Arabia shall i put my contact details & address in that form or my address in the Philippines?

Any idea would really be appreciated.
Thank you.

Was the form they sent "Appendix A"? Isn't that usually sent at the same time they ask you for your passport as well? Which stage of the process are you at in fact? Are you planning to return to the Philippines soon? If they are only asking for an address & you will be back in the Philippines soon you could just give them your home address, but if you plan to be in SA much longer (or if it is also a passport request) then it gets a bit more complicated. I unfortunately have no idea what to do in that case...would they allow you to transfer VO's to complete the process? Perhaps others will comment.

Yes you are right it is the " Appendix A" i think my application is already on the final stage. I am currently working in Saudi Arabia & i am not sure when i will be back in the Philippines. I can easily send my passport to Canadian Embassy if needed....

Thank you for your reply!
God bless.

Well that's great that you are on the home stretch now! I would suggest emailing CEM & informing them you are in SA, provide details on how long you plan to stay there, ask if they will courier your passport back to SA rather than the Phils. (I don't know if it's even legal to send a passport internationally by courier?) You will have a limited amount of time in any case to land in Canada once they give you the visa (typically before one year of your medical exam for CIC) so you will have to leave SA soon anyhow.

Thank you Gumper, i already send that document to CEM putting my address & contact no in the Phil. Since they usually contact me thru email,,i also asked DHL here, they is no issue sending my passport back home...
