as long as may trabaho pagdating dun, push lang :)
eto ang tama! hehe kahit saan actually basta maging maayos lang ang status ng buhay. Siguro ang dapat i-consider nalang eh kung yung background natin eh makakahanap agad tayo ng work. May mga provinces kasi na may in-demand talagang professions. Kaya if kaya naman na dun nalang sa province na yun, mas okay kasi mas madali makakahanap ng work. Kung mas mura ang cost of living doon sa SK, edi mas ayus pa :)

Hello ask ko lang po, may email bang marereceive for nomination from OINP or check nalang sa CIC for update? Thanks
May email galing sa CIC na may new message ka. Tapos pag check mo sa Express Entry profile mo, may option dapat to accept or reject the provincial nomination at letter that Ontario is nominating you.

After you accept, another new message that you've accepted the nomination.

Even me, I’m wondering kung ano nga ba ang meron sa Saskatchewan…Sa totoo lang, yung mga kakilala namin na nandun na for more than 10 years nang nakatira at matagal ng Canadian Citizen, never silang lumipat ng ibang province or in any big cities. They have their own house (5 bedrooms), cars, good job, may mga investments din sila sa pinas (properties), and they do a lot of travels for vacation. Last year lang, they were in Philippines at ang sabi nila, kuntento sila sa buhay nila ngayun. Ang secret kasi, they have a very simple life, very content of what they have, at happy sila sa”stress free” na environment nila doon, at marami nga daw pinoy communities. Sa ngayon siguro, hindi natin masasabi kung anong “future” meron sa lugar na yun hanggang hindi natin ma-experience personally.

But for me, the privilege of nominating me for SINP is the best thing I can be proud of for Saskatchewan!...

Ay nakakatuwa naman to know about this. I am really looking forward to the fulfillment of our Canadian dream. Happy to know these stuff about SK. Nakakaexcite naman and nakakapositive :)
Let's keep in touch kapag nandun na tayo. Ako and my family don't know anyone in SK. We have family friends in Calgary. Tried in Alberta pero SINP lang nakayanan. Really happy meron SINP na nagbigay ng chance sa amin.
Hay! Good luck talaga to all of us.
God can make everything right for us kahit nasaan pa tayo, best to trust and keep the faith

Yep na encounter ko yun. Actually dun ko nakakuha ng insights on where to take the medicals (iom or st lukes) at yung agency where i've booked my flight.
Informative though yun nga, medyo kokonti ang info on EE at halos lahat ng messages medyo matagal na.
Kelan flight mo? Thanks sa referral sa travel agency. Booked my flight na

and.... they finally released it! http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/reports/ee-year-end-2015.asp

observations (para sa mga walang time magbasa at nagmamadali):

* maraming invited na pinoy in terms of "country of citizenship"! in fact, top 2... and to think ang overall population natin ay 100M lang compared sa 1.2B. ibig sabihin nito, in terms of proportion/ratio, (pinaka?) mataas ung penetration rate natin... and of course, welcome na welcome tayo sa canada --- with open arms! *cough* New Brunswick *cough* :) #hugotComparedToKungSaanAkoNakatiraNgayon LOL

* interesting na kahit ang dami natin, pangatlo lang tayo sa "country of residence" (in fact 1/4 lang sa pinakamataas). posibleng explanation ay maraming pinoy applicants ay naninirahan sa ibang bansa rin (SG! present. or middle east. etc)

* as of jan 3, majority of the PR applications were still in process. but nakita natin (at least for MVO) na after that date, marami na nakapag PPR and VOH.

* PNP applicants, by right 3.8 months lang processing... ung catch dito, ay maraming inland PNP's na pwedeng nakapag significantly skew ng data and also ang dreaded catch phrase "80%" of all the applications ;p so kapit lang, sa mga naghihintay ng results.

eto muna, balikan ko mamaya ung marami pang observations na customized sa atin :)

Yung bigger catch is they count the processing time from when the R10 check is done.
So nasa month 1.8 pa lang ako of 3.8. :(

nagulat ako sa post mo prcand LOL akala ko kung anu na! nyaha abang na abang kasi ako sa SINP na mag-open. ;D ;D Pero tama ka, marami satin wala sa Pinas (Macau po me). Yun lang hirap din maka-settle dito kaya mas gusto talaga natin kung san tayo pwede maka-settle at magiging stable ang pamumuhay natin. Parang negative tuloy ang dating Pinas kasi ibig lang sabihin, marami ng kababayan natin nawawalan ng pag-asa kung talaga bang aayos pa ba sa atin. Sad truth :(

Pero... sobrang excited na ako, sana mag-open na soon :)

if it makes you feel better, at least sure ka na tapos na R10 mo... ung akin? ewan ko kung kahit R10 man lang natapos na LOL

haha! hintay hintay lang... magbubukas din yan :) sa perspective ko, hindi naman talaga pangit si pinas. in fact, hindi ko kino-close ung option na bumalik...

one of major reasons na nagpa-relocate talaga sa akin ay ung TAX, eh sa SG ang liit lang talaga = more purchasing power. also, regional center din dito, so mga headquarters ang dami = better exposure and bigger projects, lalo na IT kasi ako. di pwede mapag-iwanan sa skillset.

well mataas rin tax sa canada, pero nakikita mo naman ang social security nets at benefits :) so i won't mind.

all in all, proud parin ako na galing ako sa pinas. and i can see na umaasenso siya, so di parin ako nawawalan ng pag-asa.

You'll get your GCMS notes naman soon. :D

Hindi naman sana problema ang paghihintay sa akin kung di dahil kailangan ko nang pumunta sa Toronto sa Hunyo para makasama ang pamilya ko roon. Problema ko, kailangan/paano ako mag-aapply ng TRV kung wala pa ang PPR ko itong Abril. Hay.

Interesting insights. Both Canada and the PH recognize dual citizenship in case you decide to go that way.

Oh, and....

I'm shocked at how big the disparity is. 283 sa mga invited ay nasa Pilipinas pero total 3,574 of Pinoys. That's barely 8%. I am the 8%! ;D

Yeah kahit dito sa Macau, walang tax actually. kung ano sinabi nilang sweldo mo, sayo lahat yun. In my case lang meron ako professional tax which is very minimal, pero binabalik din nila every end of the year. So halos wala din. Yun lang kasi may language barrier dito, Chinese parin ang mga tao dito so kelangan matuto kahit basic Cantonese.

Anyway, yeah tama ka dun na di naman pangit sa Pinas. Kung may maayos lang din talaga akong work doon, mas gusto ko parin sa atin. And yes bellaluna, open tayo sa dual citizenship later kung papalarin :) Happy to be Pinoy parin.
