JANUARY- FEBRUARY 2013 PINOY TWP APPLICATION TIMELINE

[donggaton]

Question po sa mga kakapass palang ng applications. Advisable pa din ba magbigay ng manager's cheque in Pesos? May nabasa kasi ako na:

"• Fees can only be paid in Canadian Dollar and Philippine Peso currencies although it is advisable to pay in Canadian Dollars to avoid currency fluctuation."

Inaapply ko kasi anak ko ng TRV. Si misis ay kukuha na ng manager's cheque this week.

Thanks in advance!

Pearlyshell is right. Moreover, be sure to call the embassy first for the exact amount in pesos before purchasing the manager's check. I had to re-submit my application to CEM since it was returned to me for failing to issue the correct processing fee. My returned application had a manager's check worth Php 6150 since I considered that fluctuation might occur while they process my application.

The correct processing fee for now is only Php. 6100.

@ donggaton

Didn't you checked the site before submitting your manager's cheque? I'm sorry to here that. Also, when you call PIASI, they will tell you the amount to be placed in the manager's cheque.

Usually this is fixed like for last 2-3 years, the peso equivalent is 6,500 Php. Then they changed last year I think around Oct-Nov 2012 to 6,100 Php to compensate for the ForEx.

Anyway you are correct to call them or just check the website. They do give an advise before they change the processing fee and they don't change it like every month.

That was my biggest mistake. I was not able to check the site for that. Anyways, it has been corrected and a lesson learned.... LOL..

Thanks po. Just checking kung may nag-iba sa processing fee. Narealized ko lang na mas makakatipid pag Canadian Dollar ang ibabayad ko. Malakas kasi pero ngaun.

@Cabalen
Frequent naman po na nagu-update ang http://www.cic.gc.ca So it's a big YES to check it frequently. Pero tama nga kayo na mas ok if you pay your manager's check in CA$.

tama ang 6100, ibinabalik tlga nila pag mali ang amount na nilagay mo kc minsan ang VO for example pwede nila sabihin na nag-aapply pa lang hindi p marunong sumunod sa instruction..Don't worry atlis naicorrect k nmn nila..For your info, just click this http://www.canadainternational.gc.ca/philippines/visas/fees-frais.aspx?view=d
