Thanks for this! Ang ginawa naman ni hubby eh kumuha siya ng international drivers license which is good for 1 year na use dito habang he applies for an alberta drivers license. Pero narining ko nga rin ung about sa "red ribbon" na kelangan mo kunin from LTO.. hmmm confused nako hehehe. Makadaan nga minsan sa Registry dito at magtanong na Lang =)s
hi peli, congrats on your ppr...malapit ka na sa finals.:)

btw, to all Alberta-bound, check this site out, http://www.servicealberta.gov.ab.ca/1671.cfm re : Transportation Alberta, ito yung ginawa ko kaya after kong kumuha ng class 7 learner's at pumasa sa roadtest, naka pag drive n ako kaagad. i didn't have to wait for a year to be issued a class 5 license bcoz nag-apply ako ng exemption sa Graduated Licensing Program. at ito ang requirements na sinubmit ko sa registry.

ang problema lang, when i accompanied my hubby & son nung nag pdos sila sa cebu last may 3, nagkausap kami nung ngbigay ng orientation sa cfo-cebu at nagtanong sya about alberta transportation. sumulat daw kasi yung alberta transportation sa dfa, nagwa warning about fraudulent documents na sinasubmit dun. at yung dfa nag advise sa cfo na include sa orientation to warn against submission of fraudulent documents to get a license here.

kaya, ewan ko lang kung ano ang epekto nito sa mga susunot na kukuha ng exemption. baka mas lalo silang mabusisi at maghanap pa ng ibang proof.

anyways, i will pm you the pdf format ng requirments. di ko kasi ma- attach dito. hope you find it helpful. ;)

As to AOR, not everybody receives AOR. if your hubby has been approved, ayos na un. There will be no AOR for CEM receiving your files. :D

Hi Pelipeli..

I havet purchase my ticket yet I have to go to the travel agent pa to ask ad purche IT. But Im boud to Winnipeg. Its either way if theres available trip to Vancouver or TO would be my port of entry, it only depends on the availability sa ticket. Im sure I would booked it with Philippine Airlines and maybe sa Air Canada.

nka booked ka na ba ng flight mo Pelipeli??Kailan flight mo?
