yey! canimmigrant, verano and baby_gurl! congrats! congrats! congrats!
@gade23. yes, chillax lang muna me. mas nakaka-tense maisip na sandali na lang dito sa Pinas more than anything else.
@everyone. this thread was started to give us a view on what is going on. just like what many said, siguro lahat tayo bulag at praning if we're doing this by ourselves and not knowing what the processes are. as much as gasgas na talaga sa forum na ito ang word na patience ... yun rin naman talaga lang ang kailangan natin. siguro nde lang natin ito kailangan para sa visa processing but sa life in general.

Say let's give a hypothetical scenario, Si Jelo ay nag-apply ng PR at swerte kasi na-grant agad sya ng VISA (post June 26 kasi). Syempre super saya and excited agad maka-land. Then pag-land na-enjoy muna sya ng view - kasi lahat bago. Wow ang saya .. ito ang life na pinangarap niya. A fulfillment indeed. Then nag-apply sya sa work ... after one month ... walang call ... send ulit ng cv ... two months ... three months ... six months have passed - wala ni-isa man sa 5,000 na na-sendan nya ng cv ang tumawag ... may survival job sya pero the funds (na-inutang pa) are dwindling -- it's panic time. After a year, sobrang depressed na talaga sya at umuwi and he gave up. A day after he left tumawag ang dapat sanang employer nya. Sayang, hindi kasi nya natutunan maging PATIENT. Kung nabasa nya lang ang thread na ito sana before sya lumipad sa Canada -- then sana nalaman nya ang value ng Patience....

O ha, may kwentong imbento pa yan ... pampalibang lang para sa ating mga nag-aantay. Konting na lang at darating rin yan :)

congratulations sa lahat ng nag DM! canimmigrant, im happy for you, kasi nakita ko rin how sincere and passionate you are with this forum, with all the updating, encouragement, etc :)

heatspine, galing ng "kwento imbento" mu ha! hehehehe kaso kinabahan naman ako, paalis na ako june 17, and sana naman mag ka work agad kasi ibabalik ko pa tong show money kong ito! all is well!

faithfully hopeful, "this" will make you stronger, "this" will make you lean more to God, you may not understand now, or ever, but we are not made to understand all things, He never promised us that, instead this is reality- "HIS WAYS ARE HIGHER THAN OUR WAYS, HIS THOUGHTS ARE HIGHER THAN OUR THOUGHTS" -

i applied for a work/study visa in the US year 2009, all went well throughout the application, i wont just be working as a nurse in NY, i will b taking up masteral courses as well, and my parents whom i have not seen in 8 years :(, makikita ko na, and that my departure is set January 2010 (my parents bought already clothes for me, prepared a room for me, etc), came august 2009, i was informed to get ready for embassy interview scheduled september, and i did, with all high hopes! but came september and no news from agency, came october, i got a letter that the US embassy opted not to grant such visas (due to recession) and that they will inform me kun mag i-interview na sila (until now, wla parin hehe), i was sooooooo devastated, para akong tinulak sa tallest building, i didnt understand... until... may 10, 2011 - i got my canadian immigrant visa, now I understood, He didnt want to give me that work/student visa, He didnt want me to leave at that time because I had to be with my only younger brother when he lost his son (april 30,2010), He wanted me to have a PR visa :), and He wanted me to be with family during a loss - this is just one of the many things and situations i undergo that i dont understand immediately,or i dont understand at all even in time, but what i am sure is this - jeremiah 29:11 "for i know the plans i have for you, says the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a good future"

just from a song - "so when dont understand, when you cant see His plan, when you cant trace His hand, trust His heart" :)

tinang_m, ang taray taray taray naman ng post mo na ito!!! naparaming emotions ang dinaanan ko while reading your post :'( :eek: ::) ;D

there is a reason for everything... some reasons we learn later on... some, even never... but what matters is that we trust that we are being cared for by a divine being... who cares about us and who hears our prayers... kahit ano pa ang religion natin...

mimi, don't worry, hanggang di pa ako kumekendeng ng lipad, i will still update the table, or delegate it when things gets too busy for me (nakanaman! busy daw! hahahaha!)...

thanks again everyone!!! all of us will soon have our turn to rejoice... ;D ;D ;D

Wow! Congrats canimmigrant, loki, verano, and others na nag DM or got their visas already. Sana ganito araw araw tapos lahat ng nasa list, red na by the end of the month. lol!

@ tinang_m, that was a really nice post. Inspiring. Hay. Sometimes talaga "the plan" would just come to you. ;D

@ faithfully hopeful, sana cheer up and konting tiis pa po.. Nakapag-medical na po kayo. Dapat a year before it expires, you'd get your visa/s already. Remind ourselves na lang rin I guess na we (who are in this thread's list or aware of this forum site) are not the only ones whose applications are being processed. Dami pa siguro iba (and iba ibang application classes too) and hindi pa nila alam about this forum/site but whose apps are also being processed naman rin by CEM (including tourist visas, etc). hehe!

Some time before, I got impatient also, especially when the deadline didn't meet expectations and I have other travel plans that might get caught (still do). But then unti unti nang nare-release the visas so hopefully tuloy tuloy na, and in your case, delivery date should not be beyond a year from your first medical exam date. =)

So.. sana next week, turn naman ng app ko mag-DM (4 months left now before visa expires; 4 months left to be in Pinas.. huhu!). At nang makapag-resign na (when I get the visa sana before end of June). Ang nang wag na rin pa-expect pa my employer to plan more stuff for me. Lol!

Take care and good luck everyone!

Thank God!

pero medyo bitter sweet ang feeling ko ngayon kasi I need to ask the embassy to have my visa sent directly to me instead of forwarding it to the visa consultant. i hope i'm not too late. :(

does anyone know the email address of the manila Canadian Embassy? or do i have to contact directly to the Candian embassy (nova scotia)? would they accept calls?

congratulations sa lahat ng nag DM! canimmigrant, im happy for you, kasi nakita ko rin how sincere and passionate you are with this forum, with all the updating, encouragement, etc :)

heatspine, galing ng "kwento imbento" mu ha! hehehehe kaso kinabahan naman ako, paalis na ako june 17, and sana naman mag ka work agad kasi ibabalik ko pa tong show money kong ito! all is well!

faithfully hopeful, "this" will make you stronger, "this" will make you lean more to God, you may not understand now, or ever, but we are not made to understand all things, He never promised us that, instead this is reality- "HIS WAYS ARE HIGHER THAN OUR WAYS, HIS THOUGHTS ARE HIGHER THAN OUR THOUGHTS" -

i applied for a work/study visa in the US year 2009, all went well throughout the application, i wont just be working as a nurse in NY, i will b taking up masteral courses as well, and my parents whom i have not seen in 8 years :(, makikita ko na, and that my departure is set January 2010 (my parents bought already clothes for me, prepared a room for me, etc), came august 2009, i was informed to get ready for embassy interview scheduled september, and i did, with all high hopes! but came september and no news from agency, came october, i got a letter that the US embassy opted not to grant such visas (due to recession) and that they will inform me kun mag i-interview na sila (until now, wla parin hehe), i was sooooooo devastated, para akong tinulak sa tallest building, i didnt understand... until... may 10, 2011 - i got my canadian immigrant visa, now I understood, He didnt want to give me that work/student visa, He didnt want me to leave at that time because I had to be with my only younger brother when he lost his son (april 30,2010), He wanted me to have a PR visa :), and He wanted me to be with family during a loss - this is just one of the many things and situations i undergo that i dont understand immediately,or i dont understand at all even in time, but what i am sure is this - jeremiah 29:11 "for i know the plans i have for you, says the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a good future"

just from a song - "so when dont understand, when you cant see His plan, when you cant trace His hand, trust His heart" :)
:D :D :D :D Amen and Amen to that tinang_m.... Yes, God never said anything about making us understand the things that happened, are going to happen or is happening to and around us, only that, WE ARE TO PUT OUR TRUST IN HIM.... Never in His words did God promise that an easy life awaits us in this wonderful world He created for us.... THERE IN HEAVEN, WHEN WE REJOIN HIM, WOULD WE ONLY EXPERIENCE -- NO PAIN, NO SUFFERING, NO HEARTACHE, NO FAILURE....

faithfully hopeful, I really feel you.... "We" feel you here in this forum actually.... There are a lot of us here who went through, are going through and will still go through all this.... Don't give up!!!!.... Not when you have come this far.... Please, let us not fail God.... He is not asking us to go through what Moses or John or Paul went through, HE IS JUST ASKING US TO LEARN HOW TO BE PATIENT.... He is just preparing us for something more challenging ahead of us.... My kanya-kanya tayong problema aside from "this" i know and madaling sabihin ang mga katagang: PATIENCE, BE PATIENT, FAITH or PRAYERS, lalo na kapag hindi masyadong kumakalabit si Wormwood na pamangkin ni Screwtape (Screwtape by: C.S Lewis) sa iba sa atin ngaun hehehehe.... But you see, that is why God is God and He is really good kasi ngaung time na nafe-feel mo ang pressure and depression eh matino pa (excuse me for the term hehe) ang takbo ng utak at buhay ni canimmigrant, heatspine, tinang_m and others kaya naman my encouragement at sharing of experiences ka at lahat tayo ngaun na nababasa.... Kasi kung si God eh bibigyan tayo lahat ng problema sabay-sabay o ala tayong problema lahat eh anong matututunan at mangyayari sa atin lahat di bah? :) :) :) :) .... Come another day, I tell you, the tides will turn and you will be the one doing the encouragement, because this is life.... This is what God wants for us to do and learn especially in times like this ;) ;) ;) ;).... Encouragement, patience, kindness among others, are the real deal behind this Canadian dream of ours.... This will make you stronger---- should make you stronger.... You are not alone faithfully hopeful, you never are and never will be.... PUT YOUR TRUST IN THE LORD ;) ;) ;) ;) ....

****I'll leave these verses for you to ponder and to hold-on to.... God loves you :-* ;) :-* ;)****

1) "Hear my cry, O God; attend to my prayer. From the end of the earth will I cry to you, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I." - Psalms 61:1-2

2) "In the day that I called, you answered me. You encouraged me with strength in my soul." - Psalm 138:3

God is always listening. Call on Him for strength.

3) "Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need."- Hebrews 4:16

In times of trouble, God is there for you and He protects you.

Take your troubles to Jesus and He will help you.

4) "No one will be able to stand up against you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you; I will never leave you nor forsake you." - Joshua 1:5

WITH THOSE PROMISING WORDS, YOU HAVE NOTHING TO FEAR.... GOD IS WITH YOU---- ALWAYS.... :-* ;) :-* ;)
