Please help! Bit complex!

I have applied to FSW in the month of MAY/JUNE.

there are 2 applicants in my file, me & my wife.

My wife's passport carries her maiden name before marriage, and we did not change her name as just after marriage we applied for Quebec visa as well. And now for FSW.

So there was no time for us to change the name of my wife as even the passport with new changed name takes minimum 1 month and we were in hurry.

Now my question is, now i have the time.

1) How I can change the name of my wife in her application? Because i want my wife should carry the PR card with her changed name after marriage.

2) As my application is under processing, for changing the name, now can i make the changes in her passport for change in name?

Experts please help!!!
not an expert on this but I think it's okay that your wife's passport still has her maiden name on it as long as you've submitted your marriage certificate along with the application. the immigration officer should be able to trace and validate that she is your wife. when your papers are forwarded to the local VO, you can submit her updated passport (with her married name on it) and everything else will follow.

I think ok lang na maiden name ng wife mo ang passport Nya kasi sa generic form, May nakalagay naman dun na question sa part Nya na "have you ever used an alias?" Click mo ang YES then dun mo ilagay ang maiden name Nya.

Hi. Anyone from here had their application sent with a near IELTS expiry. Please share your experience.
Mine will expire on July 20, 2014, but already submitted my application last week.
Just have fear that it might be returned due to expired IELTS. Thank you fellow applicants.

I do believe it will be based on PER date.

Question:

Do I need to submit detailed COEs for the jobs not related to the NOC code I applied for? Or a regular COE will do? I have this 1 month call center stint that reflected on the SSS claims that I would like to declare but not in a very detailed way like my hospital nursing work.

Any reply will be appreciated.

Good morning 2014 pinoy FSW applicants! :)

conflicting answers based on the global forum, some says PER date while others say received date. I personally think naman it's the received date.

You need to submit all COEs of all jobs (even NOC that are not related) that you had for the past 10 years but if you can't get it, you can write an explanation letter on why you weren't able to produce it, if hindi mo siya isasama.

Sana I-update tayo ni @pinx00 para malaman natin kung ano talaga. :)

I can get the COEs, its just not as detailed as the ones Im using to prove my NOC code. What do you think?

That's true. I think, it really depends on the person who will be assigned to review your application.
I just hope whoever he is, he may find in his heart the generosity and kindness not to reject my IELTS.
Thank you everyone and God bless! :)

Im no expert but i will always lean towards the safe side. Just like ppmom said the opinions differ. I will always base my opinion on what i read that eilts should be valid at the time of evaluation usually for PER issuance.
The CIC already established speedy procedures ( 1-3 months) from receipt and ielts expiration is known. Further securing it is somewhat controllable on the part of the applicant but subject to the passing standard for ielts for the period. The applicant can estimate processing time and assess whether the ielts report will still be valid at the time the app is being assessed.

Yet, you have a choice to take the risk. It will depend on the evaluating officer. E kahit age nga nag iiba sila ng evaluation points. I have read that on previous fsw an applicant was short of point dahil she/ he was awarded 11 points for the age 35 years and x months. Pati months binilang ngee! So di talaga tayo sure. Laki ng impact ng ielts kasi.

If you will take the risk then give it all to mitigate the risk. Attach a letter and assure the evaluating officer that since the ielts you submitted will expire very soon you will ensure getting latest valid ielts and submit it when required by the lvo.

Bosschips ok na yan you are not claiming points for it naman e. Pang support lang sa personal history mo so enough na yan.

Amen, been claiming Philippians 4:4-9 kasi I've been really anxious about this whole thing, needed that peace that surpasses all understanding.
