ano po yung copr? required ba to pag kumuha ng pdos? we are planning to do the pdos only kasi yun lang naman yata ang kailangan sa immigration. please advise..
Yeah your right PDOS lang ang kelangan pero mas maganda pag attend ka parin ng ibang immigration seminar like sa COA para mas alam natin mga possible na mangyari upon landing.

Send the following to CIIP:

Filled out Registration Form (please photocopy extra copies as needed and ask spouse and adult dependents to fill this out as well)
Photocopy of the information page of Passport (unless if the passport has been submitted to the Embassy for visa stamping
Photocopy of Visa (if available)
1 Passport size photo for you and every qualified member intending to join the program
2 copies of updated resume of the principal applicant and the spouse and for adult dependents who are working

Just inform them that you've misplaced the invitation.

My suggestion is for everyone to attend this free seminar. The information that they give out is valuable and gives us a head start in our venture in the labor market in Canada.

We have only 2 days para mag-PDOS. kasi galing po kami ng UAE, at naka-leave lang sa work namin for 2 weeks.

Tanong ko lang po, gano po kahirap kumuha ng PDOS? Mga anong oras po kami pupunta. Advise naman po para sa mga nakakuha na.
Limited seats lang ba per day doon?

first come first serve basis na PDOS since December 1. I arrived at 7am at their office and already there are about 10 people in front of me sa pila, but during the seminar hindi naman napuno yung slots for the day, dami pa vacant seats.

i went Janaury 18, Tuesday. Maybe there are days when konti lang ang tao and days na madami, just be sure to get there early to ensure you have a slot.

i have a question to those who are already done with PDOS, I hope may magreply and magshare ng experience or advice.

It was mentioned during the PDOS that it is advisable to get another NBI clearance before departure, just to ensure na hindi maho-hold sa immigration sa NAIA. has anyone followed this advice?

Sa mga nakaalis na, what is your experience at the immigration counter sa NAIA?

Ayoko na sana kumuha ng NBI clearance, yesterday I went there 1 kilometer ang haba ng pila sa payment of fees pa lang, eh 3pm na...di na din sure if aabot pa sa cut-off nila kaya i went home na lang. Parang ayoko na ma-hassle pa sa NBI, need pa ba talaga?

We already finished our IOM/COA Seminar (January 17 & 18, 2011) and i think all of us guys will get this kind of seminar because it is very helpful for us. Lots of tips, pros and cons etc. Its a one day free snack seminar lol. The following day we also finished our PDOS at CFO and this is mandatory because the immigration at the airport will gonna check the CFO sticker that will be attached in our passport prior to departure. FYI
