Hi billybully

Yung main reason po is personal assets.
Hi Sis, may application na ba ng PR ang hubby mo? ako kasi nagpplano magpakasal, NOC B ako, tapos isasama ko sa application ng Pr misis ko, palagay mo kaya maapprove aKO kahit newly wed lang? bale nominated ako tapos naipasa ko na application sa CIC, saka sa federal skilled trade may file number nako. salamat

Question guys. How do I inform the embassy that I am done with my medical and just waiting for the result of my sputum culture test? The nurse at St. Luke's advised me to send a copy of my receipt to the embassy as it will take them 3 weeks to forward the initial results of my medical. Pwede ko bang i-email lang yung receipt? Online application ako and parang wala namang way sa site to upload a copy of the receipt. Thanks! :)

Good day guys!

I am fairly new to this forum and I can see that a lot of those inquiring have had their lives changed by the people who shared their knowledge and expertise on the subject. Kudos to all of you who did it without asking for anything in return!

Along with the many newbies here, I too, am an aspirant of an OWP. Here's how my story goes:

My wife has already been nominated for PR (after being promised of it and after 6 years of waiting and transferring from one employer to another to another). She is just waiting for her approval through the SINP as a skilled worker. My eldest daughter and I, applied for study and open work permits, respectively, last year (January 2014) but got denied. At that time, there was no PR application for my wife yet. I am now once again going to try our luck to apply for the same but this time I would like to be sure of what the necessary documents and steps I should take to avoid being denied the second time. One of the posts I have read says that it will be hard to expect a positive result the third time if you get denied twice.

On February 27, 2014, I received a letter from the Canadian Embassy in Manila stating the reasons for the denial. Here is what it says:

"You have not satisfied me that you would leave Canada by the end of the period authorized for your stay". On the subsection, what was highlighted was: 1) your family ties in Canada and in your country of residence, 2) your personal assets and financial status

Also, in "Other reasons", it said "you are or will be unwilling to support yourself or any other person who is dependent on you, and have not satisfied an officer that adequate arrangements for care and support, other than those involve social assistance, have been made.

As for my daughter, the only one marked why her application for student permit was denied is about the "Other reasons".

What I did not understand was, we were advised by our agent in Canada to have our Medical Exams already prior to the receipt of this letter and we underwent the same only to find out we will get denied.

Any feedback to this inquiry would be most appreciated.

Thank you very much MGA KAPUSO, KAPAMILYA at KAPATID!!!

Sa subrang bagal ng result for SOWP, naunahan na ng PR approval namin ang application ng husband ko for SOWP. We've submitted my husbands application for SOWP last Oct 2014, Medical results submitted November 2014 and until now wla pa rin update for visa. Until last Jan 23 I got my approval for Permanent residence now they have to withdraw my husband's application for SOWP. We just end up paying the application fee, hoping that SOWP application will be approved faster than our PR. Not complaining at all because we are thankful that our PR application was approved, just saying that if they would make it a bit faster, we can be reunited with our spouse the soonest time possible. ::) ::)
