Manila Tread for English Speakers - join here!

[BC_guy]

Hello everyone waiting so F @ @ @ ing long......Our application was transfered Oct16/12 to the CEM and don,t expect our PPR now for over anonther 6 months now!!!!

Why are you in such a hurry to get PPR? It makes sense that they only request your passport immediately prior to issuing the visa. Otherwise they are holding the passport unnecessarily and preventing any out of country travel. Why should the passport sit in their files collecting dust? Our application has been transferred over 13 months ago, and still waiting for DM ... so chill out. You're nowhere near the point of being justified to be upset. Get ready for a long wait.

I hope your visa comes asap, BC Guy.

I was just trolling on the spreadsheet, and saw that bersaminaangie from 2011 finally got their visa! And SCARAB from June got a PPR. Hope they speed up with the PPR's already : I want a PPR, but it also means no vacation in Macau for us :

Make sure you get your cfo seminar done while your in manila... Especially if you have to leave by March 6 due to expiry reasons... Then you won't be last minute scrambling.

Cheers!

Yes, sure you can. They don't want to issue it twice, so they're just making sure. Note for CFO seminar in Manila - for immigrants to Canada: Tuesday's and Friday's ONLY

Looks like a lot of May applicants from the US are getting their visas. Anyone know if the manila office has sent any out?

It seems the Manila office is pretty quiet. But Fairytale and Greekteck look to be about to get their visas.

 

[Steph C]

Looks like a bit of Valentine's Day action. JollyPao from June got a PPR, and Fairytale from May got a DM on Ecas.
Dexter Antonio from June got his visa on the 12th. Sleepy times in Manila..
