hi applicant din ako worried din ako sa tagal ng process, nag submit na ako ng passport april 2011, 2 times na rin akong ni request na mag medical, pero hangang ngayon dito pa rin, kaya naisip ko rin mag halukay kung anong mga idea ng mga kapwa natin applicant.

sinabi mo pa, Its been driving me crazy lalo na nung sinimulan kong ayusin lahat ng photos and stuff, lagi akong stressed at mainit ang ulo hehehe. Now naisend na siya, antay antay na lang, and this forum keeps me sane somehow, may mga nakakaintindi sa pinagdaraanan natin, lalo nat iniwan ko na muna si hubby sa Pinas and job searching pa lang ako dito sa Calgary, nakakabagot at nakakalungkot. nakakabaliw nga eh, may countdown pa ko ng 68 days at everyday i cross out number 1, 2, 3 and so on.. hahaha... pati yung vitamins ko binilang ko 68 pills at unti unti siya nababawasan everyday. Lol OMG i sound so crazy hehehehe :'(
hahaha. natawa ako sa vitamins! gagawin ko din to. ayan, dalawa na tayong crazy. hehe. i guess everyone here is.

lagi na lang akong pina-pacify ni hubby everytime mainit ulo ko sa kanya. iniisip na lang daw nya na mahirap talaga pag magkalayo. hindi naman daw mainit ulo ko sa kanya if magkasama kami.

hi pelipeli,
hindi ako nakaabot sa jan. batch :( ... so lost somewhere... how crazy is our system with NBI here... but then my hopes is as high as ever like you. I say we are all blessed and highly favored. We will all soon be reunited with our dearly beloved. :)

56 DAYS!!!!!!! WOOHOOO!!!!!!!! :D :D :D :D :D :D and they updated the per country processing times too and Manila VO is down to 9 months instead of 10 months!!!!!!!! God is good!!!! :D :D sana tuloy tuloy na ang pagbaba!!!!!!

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/times/perm-fc.asp

On our spreadsheet, i made a formula adding 56 days to our app received column to see the estimated date of sponsorship approval (lol-im that excited) look like everyone will get sponsorship within March! (hopefully earlier as we hope processing times get less) :D

ako naiintindihan kita sis..nakakaloka malayo sa asawa.. before he send our app we were having a little-cute-fight LOL .. ako man ilang calendars na binibilugan ko kalurky hindi na reviewers ko minamarkan ko kundi si kalendaryo na hahay! goodlcuk sa mga papers natin..sna mareunite na lahat ng mga "apart" dito sa forum! ;D ;D ;D ;D
I know how it feels too. :( Ang lungkot lang talaga na malayo sa mga mahal natin. Minsan nga kahit wala sa hulog inaaway ko na asawa ko kasi ang tagal ng paghihintay. Mas matagal pa yung oras na naghihintay kame kesa magkasama. Pano ba naman wala pa kaming 1 month na kasal nilayasan na ako. :((

awww im sure u miss him, don't worry isipin na lang natin na ilang buwan lang to compared sa rest of our lives together,and in a wonderful country with so much opportunity.. Kami naman ni hubby, kinasal nung June and nakabook na ang ticket ko to come back here sa Canada ng July. Pinarebook ko to January kahit nakapagresign na ako sa work ko dun sa Pinas, ayaw ko kasi siya iwanan agad , hindi ko kaya hehehe. Ngayon nalulungkot siya, lagi nya sinasabi balik na daw ako dun, miss na daw nya ako.. sabi ko naman, pag bumalik ako dyan di na natin mabibili lahat ng gusto mong luho. nyahahaha. :p (mahilig kasi sya sa electronics.) Hay.. ayoko nga isipin minsan eh, pag namimis ko siya umiiyak tlga ako... :(

Hi wave,
Ask ko lang po what po tijmeline niyo?, Bakit mukhang natagalan po ata?...
Minsan nakakafrustrate po talaga mag antay,kaya having this forum along the journey is such a huge help for each one of us... :)

Thanks and Godbless!!

Hay Pilipinas!!!
Hi there, are you saying Manila Visa Office??? or Embassy Manila??? if that is what you are asking naku sorry lol... wala akong contact from inside, ni kakilala nga wala eh. Yung immigration consultant ko before na niloko ako at kinasuhan ko ng ESTAFA, I believe my contact siyang mga Filipino sa loob.. most especially sa Skilled Worker category... they can manipulate the application waived pa interview. But now sobrang higpit na and longer pa ang waiting for SW. Anyways sorry sis ha...
