Yun lang po.
And para po dun sa mga nagreready na to fly to canada, you do not need to get PDOS nor COE, just secure a copy of your spouse's certified true copy of ofw info sheet from the poea records dept at 6th floor, they will require you to show the orig copy of your marriage cert and a valid ID, and submit copies of each. Prepare nyo nA ito para hindi pabalik-balik. At the airport's travel tax desk, you need to again show the orig copies of the info sheet, marriage cert, and birth cert of your children travelling with you, and again submit copies of each. As a depedent, you will pay a reduced amount of travel tax of 400 @ , and a processing fee of 200 @ . Aside from this, you will also pay the terminal fee of 550 @ .
While on board the plane, fill up the canada declaration form that will be given to you. At vancouver airport, regardless if this is your final destination, you will first fall in line sa Visitor's lane and show your passports, declaration form, (and boarding tickets pa ata). This is not the immigration yet, this is to check your declaration form (about what you are bringing in with you to canada). After this, get your luggages, park it in front of the immigration entrance, then fall in line sa work and study permit. Eto na po yung immigration. Do not worry! They are nice and considerate. Isa pa, legal naman ang pagpunta natin dito. You will first be asked of the purpose of your visit, work or study lang. Submit the Letter of Introduction, your passports, and the declaration form. Then dapat ready ang copies ng LMO, contract, visa, and permit ng asawa. Tayo yung wala ng masyadong tanong-tanong. They will issue you your permits and off you go to your final destination.
Kung may connecting flights pa kayo, and you already have your boarding tickets for this, you just need to drop your tagged luggages as soon as you enter the door leading to the domestic terminal, whether westjet or aircanada. Tapos derecho na kayo sa boarding gate. Those flying to edmonton, makikita nyo muna ang sundo nyo na sasalubong sa inyo bago nyo kunin ang luggages nyo
There, i hope i covered everything. Excited for all of you! Pray! Pray! Pray lang po!
