May 3rd line update nko yehey!
 
Oh wow, congratulations, dmac11!!! Great!!!

Also to mylek29, canadian14, iwantcanada & MeadowRain!!! Wooot Wooot!!!

Praying for more speedy movement in MVO for the remaining applicant with no updates yet.

I inquired from MVO today if they already got our docs submitted this Monday. They can't even look at the deliveries to verify anything. They can't even verify if the packages are already in the hands of one of their VOfificers being reviewed, or whatever... They are so busy as bees, I'm sure. They are speeding up so they can again open the EE and they're efficiency monitoring for the 2014 appln isn't that high, I believe. MVO replied tonight and said they cannot confirm because of the number of deliveries daily.

Wishing we have updates tomorrow!!!


There is news update. Please see this:
[size=10pt]Philippines Was Top Source Country For New Immigrants To Canada In 2014[/size]

More than 40,000 Filipinos became permanent residents of Canada in 2014, making the Philippines the top source country for Canadian immigration last year. The Philippines had previously been the top source country in 2012, with China having been the top source country in 2013...

Canada also issued nearly 47,000 visitor visas to Filipinos in 2014, a 56 percent increase since 2006.

In just a few short decades, Canada’s Filipino community has grown to become one of the country’s largest immigrant demographics. The more than 700,000 people of Filipino descent in Canada make up one of the country’s larger diaspora communities, and this number is increasing constantly. Filipino workers in Canada are important to both the Canadian and Philippine economies. While workers in Canada help to fill important labour shortages, families and friends in the Philippines benefit from remittances sent from Canada.

About half of Canada’s Filipino population lives in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA), with Vancouver hosting the second-largest Filipino population in Canada and Winnipeg also home to a large number of Filipinos.

“Within the broader Filipino community in Canada, we have observed success after success of smaller communities that have flourished across the country. The story of Filipino immigration to Canada is a story shared between a proud people and a welcoming land.”

Nagassigned si hdb ng officer na maghahandle ng case namen.. nanghingi sila ng proof about sa pagpunta sa CA. So far nasa waiting process nanaman kame for approval.

Hi mykel29

So meaning ur gonna withdraw all ur CPF n? Lahat b ung accounts including medisave?

Thank you in advance for your input.☺️
Hi lloyrine, yes po withdraw po lahat ng cpf pati medisave. Once we give up our residency, govt will ask us where to transfer our cpf funds. Sa pagkaka alam k less nia ung tax pero lahat kuha.. Kunin n nmin kasi bka biglang mgchange ng ruling about cpf withdrawals gawa ng maraming nagcomplain n local about sa atin mga pr..

Good Morning mga future canadians!

Meron lang akong tanong kasi ngayon ko lang naalala na nag parenew na pala ako ng passport at hindi ko pa naiinform si CEM. Actually last year pa ko nagparenew kaya nawala sa isip ko. Tapos n kme magpamedical last month at 3rd line appeared last week of april din. Tanong ko is need ko pa ba inform si CEM via specific inquiry or hindi na at hintayin ko nalng PPR? Worry ko lang kc baka magcause to ng delay paghindi ko sila nainform sa bagong passport ko.

Salamat sa mga sasagot.
 
jewel_ricci said:
thanks lloyrine. but usually, they call muna and verify before MR? and is it possible na may MR na pero wla pang update sa ecas like ung 2nd line? am really anxious about this MR n tlga..

Hi jewel_ricci

Yes possible n wala png update s ECAS pero my email received n for MR. We can't rely so much in ECAS some of them ECAS muna then email request or vice versa.

We just need to patiently wait for it if u feel malapit k n den check ur email / ECAS at the same time no harm nmn dba & it won't cost u anything it's just a finger tips away☺️

Eto sana makatulong:

Useful info from our NOC group/forum although most members are from NDVO and LVO.

Background & Security Checks

Note: Our Background Check comprises of 2 parts:
1. The Standard Documentation Checks,
2. The Security & Criminality Checks.

Standard Documentation Checks:
Our background check is done at the CHC stage. It commences the moment our file gets the 1st BFD by the VO. An indicator of which is the e-CAS that shows "In Progress". All docs been checked & our NOC being tallied against the MI, if the VO finds our case 'eligible' for Canadian PR, the file becomes 'Accepted'; and then it goes for standard background checks, viz. Exp, Quals, Adaptability, Qualitative Considerations etc.

The process involves many things. If our case file is well presented and the enclosures vouch the quality-quantity, adequate POF docs etc., there might not be a requirement of 'actually' calling the employers, references etc. The VOs have a way with that, they are experienced enough to ascertain the logical disposition of our case. But, if there are any concerns of his/her, s/he is likely to ask for additional docs, do further scrutiny vide any means [calling, visiting etc.] & might ask for an Interview.

-Culmination: When 'fully' satisfied, we get the 'Medical Request'.
-Timeframe: Can be anything around 3-8* months, for the 'fast track' system (Avg. 4-5 months).
-eCAS: Continues to Show 'In Process'.
*The older system has a queue, thus can be longer.

Security & Criminality Checks:
A part of the b/ground checks is the 'Security Check'. It commences after our med results are submitted to the CHC. This is a major activity -mainly concerning our 'safe inclusion' into the Canadian Soil; vis-a-vis, Political, Socio-Econmical, Anti-Social disposition, perceived Threat to Canada's integrity etc. This gets us the SDEC, CDEC & SECCRIM.

This is a serious & time-consuming stage, involving many agencies, including CSIS, Interpol, NASC, Database Checking & touch-base with Local Police. Many things are considered here... the No. of countries visited, Applicant coming from 'certain' countries, ex-Servicemen [including Law Enforcement services], Prolonged stay in a country w/out sufficient docs to prove cause, frequent traveling to certain nations, your *Name (?), Inter-Religion/Nationality Marriages etc.

If everything is simple & straight, the file soon gets into the 'final review' stage. If there are any 'red flags', our case goes into a 'spin'. Then our file might go to the local Police/CID agencies; the outcome/timeframe of which is beyond the control of CIC. And thereby the timeframe can be anything [sometimes beyond 1yr]. But, usually this stage should be over by 5 months max. However, a point to be noted is that we can also be called for an Interview [at this stage], due to this reason.

-Culmination: Only upon security clearance we receive the PPR.
-Timeframe: Around 2-6 months. Avg. 3 months. [With new system, sometimes PPR is clubbed with Meds]
-eCAS: Still 'In Process', but 'Med Results Recd.' inside.

*Yes, that's how a certain Mr. Sharukh Khan was detained for 4.5 hrs in an US port. He was a VIP, thus 4.5 hrs. For u & me -things could be different.

.....................
The Process in a Nutshell:

Stage-1: [CIO stage] Send Initial Apps+Processing Fees to CIO-NS > Qualitative Check > Issue of AOR+120 days Letter >

Stage-2: [CHC stage onwards] Send Full Docs+RPRF to the Local Visa Office > File on Queue > e-Cas: "Received by Visa Office" > Eligibility Check+PSDEC > Issue of 2nd AOR > Background Check > Issue of Additional docs Request [if any] > 1st BF'D > e-Cas: "In Process" > Send Addnl. Docs > Issue of Med Request > 2nd BF'D >

Stage-3: Meds Sent > e-Cas: "Medical Results Recd." > Issue of PPR* > Send Passport/s > Security Check > Visa/s Stamped > e-Cas: "Decision Made" >
*The Meds & PPR are sometimes 'clubbed' together.

Stage-4: Return of 'Stamped' Passport/s+COPR > Landing at the POE > e-Cas: "Completed".

Salamat sa mga sasagot.

mag inform ka nalang sa CEM via case specific enquiry kabit mo when mo nirenew lagay mo details ng old and new passports. i think mas maganda inform sila now than later.
