one document per person. they won't give the names, but they can check if you're one of the recipients. just tell you're expecting a package (passport) from CEM and provide your name. here's dhl's hotline number - (02) 879 8888. hope that helps :)

My apps is now on its 16th month sadly to say... But as of now I'm already done with my remed
and when I checked my ecas it says medical results received, that is just yesterday(remed done
on July 5 and IOM passed it on July 12).. my question is how long should we still wait for DM
or visa before we can fire another email to CEM.. our gmcs showed the cause of delay of our app
is they set our electronic file to Ottawa instead of manila and it took them months before
they fixed that.. we went ballistic about it but we just focused ourselves on the positive
side on the notes that they found our relationship as genuine...

Fire away now tell them they have the remed,and how they screwed you around for 16months,,,its time for you to get your visa,im in the same situation but the medical was just completed yesterday and not sent yet,,,,,oh yeah my ecas still shows MEDICAL RESULT RECEIVED,,,but that is the original one
