Don't be confused. The statement you mentioned is part of the entire section below which is hindi po tayo kasama:

If you are a resident of a country served by one of the visa offices listed on our website

AND

are unable to pay in Canadian funds, visit the responsible Visa Office website for fee payment instructions and to obtain the fee payment form.

Include with your application to the CIO a copy of your receipt from the mission as proof of payment.

Consult "Step 3, Pay the Fee" section of the instruction guide for more information about the fee payment.


OMG. I've run through that section soo many times but my brain didn't catch it! Yung sentence starting "Include" ay statement pala ng IF condition. I thought separate paragraph na sya. ampf!

The organization of text would have been much easier for my brain to grasp if it were arranged something like this:

If you are a resident of a country served by one of the visa offices listed on our website AND are unable to pay in Canadian funds, visit the responsible Visa Office website for fee payment instructions and to obtain the fee payment form. In addition, include with your application to the CIO a copy of your receipt from the mission as proof of payment. This way, it is written as one paragraph and the flow of ideas can be easily followed :D

Nevertheless it's better to ask now than to regret later :D. I just hope wala ako ma-miss out :(

Thank you zac. This is very helpful! :)

AGREE ako kay zac989!

mas mainam po na basahin natin ang buong paragraph sa instructions para maintindihan natin ang context.
sa ganitong paraan, hindi "sentence by sentence" ang pagkakaintindi natin sa mga instructions o kaya selected na
sentences/phrases lang ang kukunin natin galing sa instructions.

suggestion lang po ito.
goodluck po sa application ninyo!
I agree with you. I read the instructions but somehow my pons get blocked which causes certain details to be missed out :(. Or could it be the way the text is organized? That's why many suggests to have our work reviewed by others. Ipapa-review ko din yung forms and docs ko sa iba to make sure that what I've missed ay makikita ng iba :)

visa grant ka na pala. sana kami din. btw, from which province are you?

thanks and I hope you continue to share your blessings to those who need them :)

I was checking the 2013 Global Sheet and I noticed that there are only a few who were called for an actual interview (most of the applicants went straight to Medical), anybody here knows why some people get called to be interviewed and some were not?
Could be for quality control or verification of information.

You're welcome brother! God bless. I wish that more people will be like you, extending arms selflessly to those who are in need. In the end, this forum has been designed to help one another to reach our canadian dream :)

If we are willing to help, reach out our hands and open our doors with no hesitations and ambivalence. If not, let us not force ourselves to respond to questions that will only add up to the confusion and doesn't help at all :D

Anyone who agrees with me please raise your right hand hehe

Ooops my bad. sorry naman po :(. i thought visa grant ka na. proverbs lang pala yung nakalagay sa timeline mo. confusing huh. hehe.

Anyway don't worry naman. I am certain your visa will be granted soon. I'm definite that you understood everything well - every point and context written in the instructions so I won't expect your application get returned/refused, otherwise I'll kill myself. haha.

I know that you have read and done perfectly well and I am confident you will get your Visa in no time.

Very best of luck po :)

tingin ko may risk dahil baka iconfirm ng CIC sa previous company mo kung andun pa yung manager mo... not sure though... intay tayo ng advise ng mga seniors... 8)
