snakeyes2010 and losing hope, the list is for those who already submitted their passports to the VO... there is a separate thread created by gandasia (i think) for those waiting for their passport requests... i understand your anxiety, waiting is almost always nerve wracking... do send an email and inquire about your situation... also to make the VO aware of how close your medical's anniversaries are, which is usually the visa validity dates that the VO follows...

i'm just wondering, did you have any problems with your medicals? we had one blogger here who got their visas less than two months before their visa validity dates... unfortunately he was a mushroom blogger... sumulpot bigla at nawala na din ng ganun ganon na lang haha!... usually kasi sa medicals na de-delay ang release ng PPR... or sometimes, basta lang talaga...

i have spoken with a former canadian visa officer... she said that the VO has always had quotas and priority NOCs... they get instructions on who and when to process from the minister chuva... it is only with the new scheme na nalalaman natin ang priority, tapos yung wala sa list ni hindi pwede mag apply... dati basta pasok ka sa point system, chika ka to apply kahit di naman nila need ang expertise mo... she said that visa release towards the end of the year is slower compared to the start of the year... dati pa yon... some 10 years ago yata sya visa officer... so ngayon, dahil na sobrahan sila last year ng dami ng immigrants, the VO has this visa staggering going on... isa tayo sa mga tinamaan non... so we need to be patient lang talaga and start preparing... sabi nya pag visa releasing na lang, ok na yon almost all the time...

so to everyone here, let's remain hopeful... wala tayong magagawa... we had been instructed not to make plans of leaving until we are in possession of our visas... hindi lang specific ang CEM... sa US INS kasi as in naka specify not to quit your job, sell your properties etc. etc... although i share the sentiments of those who have wrongly anticipated the visa waiting time, it has been done... it is best to just move forward and stay positive... sayang ang energy, that's what i always say...

mag update sana ako ng list ulit bukas :) hay!

i wish everyone well... mimi, ano sabi ni bolang kristal?

thanks Canimmigrant! you're such a great help, actualy I quit my job last februray pa, almost 3 months na rin unemployed and no source of income, hay.... Sinusulit ko na lang yung time with my family and preparing for the big day(immigration)... thanx thanx!

hello people,

we've been waiting for so long na tlga, buti na lng di pa tau nawawalan ng bait ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

papunta na tayo sa HOLY WEEK, let's offer the agony of waiting to Lord, if this is a way of partaking in HIS passion, then so be it, coz for sure, we will share in the glory of HIS resurrection ;) ;) ;) let's keep on praying, hoping and trusting that this long wait will come to an end sooooon.

mahaba man ang prosisyon................sa simbahan din ang tuloy 8)

TAMA ;D Sacrifice pa tayong lahat ng konte ;D

* Posting as reference only. Current trend is visa issued between 150-160 days prior to its expiry. To make a conservative estimate -- rather than hoping it would be earlier - add another month.

Sana nga, my Visa expiry is on October 26. So if this is the case, I will be getting my Visa not later than the 20th of May. And that is a month nalang from now. But I only sent my pp last Feb 14 since I lost my old one and had to replace it. Hopefully, the delay in my pp submission will not affec the 150-160 day timeline. Crossing my fingers!

Hello, I'm new here. I'm also waiting for my PP and visa. Ask ko lang po if anyone here could help. Can I land anywhere in Canada even though I put in my application form that my initial landing is in Toronto?

More than a year na kasi noong nag-submit ako ng FSW app. nag-change na kasi ang mind ko and I'm planning to land in Vancouver. Salamat sa tulong po in advance.

I pray to God for the return of our passports w/ PR visa very soon :D

Actually pwede you can land anywhere in CA as long as you have you PR visa. Have you ever attended the CIIP and COA? if not, it is advisable for you to attend, your querries will be answered by those friendly and approachable facilitators. God bless.

grabe ang paghihintay ng visa natin? today is the 5th months of waiting para sa amin passport till now wala parin balita. sana dumating na passport nating lahat. ask ko lang din kung mag laland ka sa alberta magkakaroon ka na ba agad ng medical support coming from the government of alberta canada. kasi mukhang preggy si misis.
