Hi,

If you do not know how to fill out the forms and you have so many questions. It might be a good idea to have a specialist to help you.

1. you need to fill out the forms for both you and your wife
2. Yes, you need to submit original NBI and others if she lived outside of Phils more than 6mos.
3. You do not need to pay the Permanent Residence rights fee, but paying it early means they do not have to ask you for it.
4. Your Open permit will be issued months before your PR.

1. Fill up YOUR application form, your wife will have to do hers when she receives the LC2 kit.
2. Attach what is asked for on the document checklist for YOURSELF so the police clearance of your wife she can attach later.
3. No you don't have to right away (takes 32 months as per cic website to process the PR), but if you have money to spare thendo so :)
4. Based on experiences of applicants since Dec 2011, 3-4 months for your OWP.
