Hi everyone!!! I am back!!

|I Just passed the written driver's license test!!! ha ha.. 30 questions po yon. It is computer based test. You are allowed to have 6 mistakes to pass the test. Luckily I finished the exam in around 3 minutes with only 2 mistakes.. ha ha..bilis no? ha ha.. Yung pinakasimple pang tanong ang mali ko ung bus stop sign at ung isa i overlooked na may word na 'Not' pala kaya baliktad sagot ko.. hehe.. Kala ko kasi sobrang time pressure eh upto 30mins pala ung exam.. ha ha.. gulat nga kapatid ko kala nya di pa ko nag start at may system error, kaya lumabas kagad ako sa cubicle na di pa nag init pwet ko haha..

Madami daw po ding bumabagsak dun.may reviewer naman online. nag review din po ako the night before i took the exam. may ibang guideline din po kasi sila. Pwede din po itake in tagalog, but i doubt kung mapapadali kayo.. hehe.. baka malalim na tagalog patay tayo jan! wa ha ah..

I was not advise to surrrender my phillipine Non-pro driver's license yet. I could use it daw for 3 months, kaya pwede nako mag drive dito. tapos pa schedule nalang daw ako pag actual driving test kung gusto ko na ma issue han ng canadian driver's license.

yung expired po license jan, pa renew na po kayo, kahit sa recto nalang!! haha.. ung sakin po ha legal yon ha.. haha.. i surrender nyo lang naman dito para makapag exam na kayo ng actual kagad. Kung la po kasi kayo valid philippine license, after passing the exam, you have to wait for nine months para makapag actual test kayo. learner's driving license plang bale bigay sa inyo at di kayo pwede mag drive on your own kung wala kayo kasama na candian driver's license holder for a minimum of 3 years. good luck.. hehe
Hi PINOY2MANITOBA! ask ko lang saan website yung online review para driving test? Paano ang procedure? and how much ang expenses to take the written and actual driving test? salamat!

Hi pag federal skilled worker ang alam ko dun hanapin nila complete na 10k or 11k CAN dollars. pero pag provincial nominee hindi naman, kasi ako po di ko naman po complete dala ko. konti lang. to follow iba ko money, pero di naman tinanong sinabi ko lang 2k plus and that's it. :)
thanks pinoy2manitoba. at least, now i can sleep tight without worrying where to get the rest of the money. enough na rin naman siguro ang dala namin for a few months.

hi giselle, quite difficult nga magdecide kung ganyan na kalaki earnings nyo per month na mag asawa..i weigh nyo mag asawa din yung long term benefits of both (to stay in Phils or migrate), especially if you have kids already. and it's true na ang pag migrate ay may marami kang iti-trade off.

Kailangan lang talaga handa harapin ang new life pag nagdecide na mag migrate kasi posibleng mag start from zero professionally. Yung iba kahit malaki na ang kinikita dito sa Pinas nag ma migrate pa din kasi talagang gusto nila di lang sa mas malaking kikitain kungdi dahil yun ang ikasasaya ng puso nila. Kung may LOA na, pag-usapan nyo mabuti mag asawa, on the other hand, sayang naman ang opportunity nandyan na yan, Di lahat nabibigyan ng ganyang pagkakataon, isipin mo din pag dating ng araw ayaw mo pa rin ba mag migrate?.

Btw, under family stream ba inaplyan nyo? Kung family stream di naman kayo pababayaan ng sponsor nyo at matutulungan kayong magsimula doon.

You can ask nga pala si Pinoy2manitoba, sya yung dati parang di rin interesado mag migrate pero nandun na cya ngayon at i guess enjoying his new journey of life. :)

sana nakatulong ang inputs ko, anyway desisyon nyo pa din naman ang masusunod .

God bless you! :)

hi, lorena. thanks for sharing your experiences and observations. you have kids with you, are they in grade school? ask ko sana what school records of the kids did you bring? ano ba ang hinahanap ng mga schools diyan para tanggapin ang mga bata? yung mga nababasa ko kasi sa cic website, generalized eh, latest school records lang ang sinasabi. Hope to hear from you and thanks in advance.

Good luck sa job interview mo ha. kamusta naman ang job-hunting dyan? ang dami kong nababasa na negative feedbacks. kesyo mahirap din daw maghanap, kung wala kang backer, mahihirapan ka daw makakuha ng job. how true?

giselle, you need to weigh things before you will decide, I have a niece who is earning good here in the Philippines, the husband wants to go to Canada... so they applied and was approved and went there in 2007. My niece just stayed there for a month... get her PR card and went home... up to this date.. dito sya sa 'pinas... kasi ayaw nya talaga doon... so for me depende kasi sa lifestyle nyo if you can afford everything here... I dont think you need Canada.... hehehe just my own opinion...

I guess that points the difference between applying for a working visa and a permanent residence visa.
We're going to migrate not just work there for a time.
I've earned a professional license in our country and had experience working in the top firm.
The feeling of leaving everything and starting from scratch is a great discouragement,
UNLESS you have a greater purpose.
For me I want to be with my siblings who have been living there for years.
They aren't blessed with good job opportunities in our country so they decided to work and live in Canada.
My point is salary is just one piece of life and
you can never get real security from it- anything can happen.
Let's think wider! How do you really want to spend your life?
Let's see farther! Where do you want to be in 10 years?
Pray and get acquainted with possibilities (i.e. career opportunities, culture, environment).
Most importantly, discuss with your hubby and get clear with your purpose whether you stay or leave.
So when things get tough you better be standing together on something tougher.
