I'm sorry, I don't know my own dates by heart. It would have been easier for me if you have provided your file date in the first place. I will add you to the spreadsheet. Welcome to the January 2014 applicants thread.

You don't need to do anything once your sponsor is approved. They will forward your application to the Visa Office responsible of your country. Just monitor your email address if you provided one because they will send their requests using your email.

Apparently 5 days after I received AOR2 from Beijing, we just received another email this morning requesting passport and pay RPRF. Not sure if that means the sponsorship has been approved, but looks it's on the right track.

By the way, for those who don't know (like myself), all communications from CIC will be directed to sponsoree's email as opposed to sponsor's after receiving AOR1 and sponsorship approval, which sort of make sense, so all sponsors, do ask your significant others to watch out for that email in their inboxes. :D

Does anyone think that the current Moratorium on temporary work visas, the cancellation of the investor immigrant program and the new quota of 5000 applicants for parent/grandparent will improve the delays at the Ottawa Case Processing Centre ? or were all of these not processed at the same office ?

Yes its always easier when you are close to the Manila area. I understand what you mean. My wife is coming from Northern Samar and it was always complicated before she moved to Manila. I spoke with my wife this morning and she has better memory than me. ;) She reminded me that she just went there early in the morning and she registered for the same day seminar. But like I said in the previous post, you can't do that anymore. You have to register online. Here is the link: http://www.cfo.gov.ph/ There is a big banner there for registering and if you scroll down there is also information. Everything will be done on the same day. You pay the 400 PHP, you attend the seminar from 9 to 12 and they deliver the certificate and sticker on the spot. I don't know which airline you plan to fly but if you fly Philippine Airlines to come back, you will have to spend at least one night in Manila. PAL is flying to Canada on Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays. The seminar is Tuesdays and Fridays. The flight bound for Vancouver is at 3PM Phils time so even if you try to do it the same day before leaving on Friday, its gonna be tight schedule. Thanks though for posting that information that might be useful to our fellow Filipino applicants. I forgot about that. :D
OK, good to know about the all-in-one-day do-ability. For sure it's going to be a logistical jigsaw trying to schedule that element, while trying to prognosticate the visa delivery date first of all. Luckily my wife's brother's family recently moved to Manila, so maybe we can plan a bon voyage week with them while taking care of these last little bits (as my wife said, another typical Philippino cash-grab!) & head across the pond after that.

Have your paid your RPRF already? If precedents work well, you should receive an email from BJ in the next couple of days

I hope so.. I had read somewhere that VO BJ didn't communicate well and didn't send AOR's so I was quite pleasantly surprised.

What is RPRF?
The fee that we had to pay when sending the application, we paid in full for all the components there but do not know what they were.

It is called "Right of Permanent Resident Fee"... we did not pay this amount when we sent our application to alleviated the financial "ding"
