Hello thanks po sa reply. 2500cad po account ni hubby now ako nmn po dto sa phils P80,000. Ok npo kya un? Hope so...

Un bout po sa visit visa, pag daw po dting dun cnada tpos multiple entry daw iapply. dun n mgapply ng open work permit, un po ang sbi, naaprub dw sla as visitor tpos ngapply nlng pgdting dun. But i think u'r right, it would be best if I apply for open work permit and study permit ng anak nmin.

Also, any idea as to the average processing times? Iba iba po kc un nkikita ko sa mga status ng naaprubhan n, may 3 months to 1 yr. Para alm nmin what to expect. I plan to resign kc a month before visa issuance pra my preparation pa. Thanks.

74 days ang procsng ng new work permit, i expect this dec llbas. Can't wait na... Kung pwede lng hilahin aaraw. Basta i'll keep on monitoring this forum and thread, very helpful tlga. Thank you for answering my concerns.

God bless us all.

Hello! I've read ur posts. Guess your hubby is of same situation with my husbnd. For almost two years, he's categorized as low skilled. We just applied for his work permit now as skilled for noc b. We'r a bit worried, any hassle from cpc vegreville regardiNg change of work category from noc c to b? Hope we're expecting a smooth process. I'm setting timeline for our application, if we get his new work permit this dec, we'll immediately apply for open work permit.hoping for your reply.. Thank you and god bless...

Hi Ynoweh!

Regarding sa schooling, yung kids ko started school last Sept 19 and free naman ang education. Wala naman ibang school dito yung public school lang sa lugar namin, we're in Lanigan, Saskatchewan. I'm just not sure kasi may alam din ako na sa Alberta pinagbabayad daw ng 1000 CAD ata kasi international students daw yung mga bata. Wait natin reply ni deltaromeo. ;)

hi ynoweh,, nothing to worry about,, basta wait lang kau,,, ung sa hubby ko kc it takes 5 months bago lumabas un bagong work permit nya, mas matagal daw kc same employer, pero kung magkaiba daw ng employer mas mabilis pa.. for now gather mo na ung mga requirements na pwede mo magather para paglabas ng permit ni hubby mo maiiapply mo kaagad, the earlier the better... waiting na rin kmi sa visa ngaun ng daughter ko, andito nga si hubby ngaun for a vacation, pero paalis na rin xa sa tuesday, sayang nga at di pa kmi makakasabay... hopefully soon magkavisa na rin kmi para di malungkot ang christmas ni hubby... :) goodluck!!

i think ok na yan. Kasi may work naman si hubby so makakaipon pa. Pero we also don't know kung amount ba talaga silang hinahanap. Kasi 2k minimum yung recommended nung consultant namin before.


Un bout po sa visit visa, pag daw po dting dun cnada tpos multiple entry daw iapply. dun n mgapply ng open work permit, un po ang sbi, naaprub dw sla as visitor tpos ngapply nlng pgdting dun. But i think u'r right, it would be best if I apply for open work permit and study permit ng anak nmin.
Hindi kaya mas magastos yung mag tourist tapos mag apply pa dito nung open work permit? Kasi multiple entry dn naman ang open work permit. Anyway, nasa sa kanila yun. Pero bagong diskarte din yun. parang nagmamadali lang makarating yun yung advantage.


Also, any idea as to the average processing times? Iba iba po kc un nkikita ko sa mga status ng naaprubhan n, may 3 months to 1 yr. Para alm nmin what to expect. I plan to resign kc a month before visa issuance pra my preparation pa. Thanks.
Ideally, 8 wks = 2 months. Pero mga kakilala ko and dito sa forum parang 2.5 months. Yung 1 year special case yun. Mukhang mga nagka prob sa medical. Ako mismo umabot ng 4 months and almost 2 wks. Grabe yung timeline ko. Kaya imagine noon wala pang sumasagot sakin dito. hahaha. Mas nakakaloka. Mukhang natabunan yung papers ko or nagleave yung visa officer ko. Hindi ko alam ano talaga nangyari. Pero nung araw na nag follow-up ako sa e-mail... yun yung araw naissue yung visa ko. Kaya suspicious. Anyway, at least andito na ako. Whew.


74 days ang procsng ng new work permit, i expect this dec llbas. Can't wait na... Kung pwede lng hilahin aaraw. Basta i'll keep on monitoring this forum and thread, very helpful tlga. Thank you for answering my concerns.
Yup please do continue to read. Kasi madami na din kaming na-post. Karamihan hindi na din binabasa yung old posts kaya madaming tanong na nauulit. We do try our best to answer. :)


God bless us all.

hi jeckay,, sayang nga eh,, di pa ako ngkapag-inquire sa Nationwide kung asan na ang result namin,, ung sa anak walang nging problem, ung sa akin naman, pinarepeat pa ang xray ko for another view daw.. pero last sept 8 pa un,, sabi nila, kokontakin na lang nila ako kaagad kung me kelangan pa irepeat, pero awa naman ng Diyos, wala na tumawag sa akin,,, so i hope wala na talaga problem.. halos magkakasabay lang tayo na nagpamedical eh.. buti na rin nga lang at sobrang busy ko ngaun, di ako napepressure sa paghihintay ng visa namin.. tapos sa SM Lipa nakapag-inquire ako ng ticket meron kc sila promo for students at ung mga dependent spouse, around 30k lang daw ang aabutin ng 1 way.. mura na xa diba?? pray lang tayo...

legan you can call nationwide to be sure that they forwarded your medical results, like kami ni jeckay nangulit tlaga kami kse it took them almost a month bago na forward. Sabay pala tyo nag pa medical Aug. 25 pero bumalik ako Sept. 5.

Tlaga may promo sa SM Uniword ba yan, kse like jeckay taga Lipa din ako. kse naghahanap hanap na din ako ng ticket. may contact person ka na dun? Until when kaya promo nila?
