Hello po! sa mga naghihintay po ng nomination from OINP na katulad ko, ask ko lang po, may mga documents na po ba na kelangang iready or isecure? Based po sa turnaround time ng OINP, it might take another 2-3mos for nomination from my aor which is mar 2016. Kelan po ba ideal mgsecure ng docs like COe, payslips, NBI clearance, bank statements etc? Salamat po sa mga sasagot God bless

^ You mean for the PR application? Then the best time is after you are officially nominated by OINP.* You have 2 months upon getting your ITA to submit your eAPR. The requirements for OINP and PR are nearly identical, just add the medicals and NBI clearance.

Timing of CoE and payslips depends on your company if they are fast or not (didn't you already submit these for OINP? just have your company issue a freshly dated one). Bank certificates and statements by a good bank (like BPI) is the same day (I've heard some banks issue it in 1 or 2 weeks). Worst case scenario at NBI is 1 week.

*If you need to get PCCs from abroad, that's what might take time.

Thanks. I'm here in Manila, so getting an NBI clearance I guess wont be that difficut. Yeah, BPI issues bank cert and bank statements real time, good thing I work with the GOOD bank (BPI) Thanks Bellaluna!

Hi! Nakuha na nung bf ko yung passport niya with his visa. Ano yung PDOS at required ba talaga yun? Thank you

reivax maybe you can call CFO Manila Baka they can accommodate you as walk-in? You will just fill up the registration there na on the day, before the seminar. Pag online kasi Naka print na ang registration. We attended in March, I think new lang ang online system so they might be making allowances pa for those who are not able to register online. But good thinking on the Cebu option.

Heymikki Pre-departure orientation seminar conducted by the Commission on Filipinos Overseas is a required seminar for emigrating Filipinos. It's listed on the attached letter of instructions with the passport and COPR. When you attend the seminar they stamp on your passport, immigration will look for this stamp before letting you leave the Philippines. There are stories of migrants who had flights who were turned away at the airport talaga so you really need to attend before you go or else rebook your flight.

Landing this week!

We received Sendoff gifts na mga santo...
Then on my to do list was to check the inspection.gc.ca website...
Ayun.. Wooden carvings daw kelangan declare...
Hm.. Sad naman if they decide to check at Hindi pumasa, itapon Lang Nila.. Iwan ko na Lang

So kayo din! Better review the declarations customs form!

hello kababayans,

May question po ako and watever help I can get is highly appreciated.
My current EE CRS score is 343, I am still living in the Philippines.

I have a job offer in BC (NOC B) and employer is willing to cooperate on any support they can give just not able to issue LMIA. So I can only use this for BC PNP application to which my score is only 69 - but minimum assured ITA is 135.

Do you have an advice whatelse I can do to raise my score to at least 450 to get an invite from iRCC?

TYIA,

As in there are no PDOS sessions being held April 4-12 in Manila, or wala lang online slot?

Nandito yung number ng CFO Cebu: http://www.cfo.gov.ph/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1345&Itemid=843

Mukhang walk-in/first come-first served lang naman sa Cebu, pero sa Manila, required ang online registration. Eto yung schedules for both cities: http://www.cfo.gov.ph/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=2834:rar-pdos-press-release&catid=108:cfo-press-release&Itemid=839

This week na ba flight mo? Wow naman, bon voyage!

Yaaaak ang hassle, required talaga ang PDOS?



@ jessicatan: Are you a fresh grad with little work experience? I would say the only way for you to get an ITA, is, ironically to get a nomination from another province. I checked the SIRS criteria and it's a long shot for you to be able to use that job offer for BC PNP, no?

Ang mura! Pero ok yan Cathay kayo. Magbook na ko today kasi naman... pamahal na ng pamahal ticket. Mag Korean Air kami. Mas maganda pa din daw ang Asian airlines.
