that won't be a problem. As long as their relationship is legitimate and the sponsor is capable of supporting the applicant financially for the first few years, walang problema :)

Hello po.. Good evening.

Question po. Possible po ba madelay yung release ng passport ng asawa ko since umuwi ako dito sa pinas? Im already staying here for 6months.

Nagapply po kami for sponsorship March 2015. Complete and bayad na lahat. Upfront na din po yung medical ni hubby. Nakareceive ako ng letter from CIC nung nasa canada pa ko nung May 22,2015 saying that im eligable to sponsor my husband. Nung June 17,2015 hiningi na passport niya. He sent it thru VFS. After 3months, we decided na uwi na ko ng pinas para makapag bakasyon bago kami sumabak ng work sa canada. So september 11,2015, umuwi ako. We waited pero walang update from VFS. Supposedly, uuwi na ko ng canada by november 2015. But i dont wanna come back to canada without him so i cancelled all my flights and stayed. By January 20,2016, he received an email saying that he needed a medical reassessment. Napaisip kami. Why do we have to do the UPFRONT medical if kakailanganin niya din ng reassessment. Di naman kasi sya ma-aapprove sa upfront medical if there's something wrong. Actually, antagal niya bago naapprove sa upfront medical niya coz they saw a spot in his lung. Pero after 6months under sa medication na bigay nila, he got cleared kaya nasend ko kasama ng mga application yun. Now, we still dont hve any clue where his passport is. We tried calling VFS but walang concrete answer. We tried sending emails to manilimmigration@international.gc.ca pero puro computer generated replys. Now, we're hanging and we dont know what to do. Coz obviously, i resigned sa work ko sa canada coz mag 6months na ko dito sa pinas. And si hubby, nagresign na din sa work niya dito sa pinas since dumating ako kasi nga nagvacation kami and umuwi kami for a month sa province niya to say his goodbyes..

Sorry for the long story. I just want you guys to understand what we're going through.. So back to my question, makakaaffect ba sa pag process ng visa niya yung paguwi ko and pag stay ko dito sa pinas for 6months?

Thank you for any prompt reply.

HELP!

1. Kailangan pa ba ng NBI clearance or police clearance is enough?
2. Pagkakuha namin ng NSO marriage certificate, may dapat pa ba kaming gawin dun or okey na yun? (Like red ribbon)
3. Paano ang process ng upfront medical and san ang list ng clinic?
4. Kailangan pa ba ng CENOMAR? (Spousal sponsorship ito)

Pasensya na lost talaga ako sa mga documents na kailangan. I just want to make sure.

JUST SHARING (baka makatulong sa kakilala nyo):
For newly weds, NO NEED na to wait for 3-6months before makakuha ng NSO Marriage Certificate. You just need to get a proof of endorsement sa munisipyo kung saan ginanap ang kasal nyo. Maliit lang na papel ito na nakalagay ang details kung kailan pinadala sa NSO ng munisipyo nyo ang marriage certificate nyo. In 2weeks, marerelease na NSO marriage certificate nyo.

Hi. I would like to ask you regarding your wife that she is in Canada during PPR? I ask you this because I would like to visit my husband using my Visitor's Visa. So can I visit while my application already in Manila?

Pasensya na lost talaga ako sa mga documents na kailangan. I just want to make sure.
1. Yes kailangan ng NBI sa Pinas at Police Clearance sa other country if you stayed more than 6 months sa other country.
2. No need for a Red Ribbon for Marriage Certificcate, Just photocopy it, I did to mine is photocopied and notarized by a lawyer.
3. My wife did her upfront medical in Baguio, she did it for a day only, mabilis sya if ala problema sa medical di ka na pababalikin. This are the list of Upfront Medical Practitioners:

That's normal. If you submitted a complete application including the appendices (A and B) then next you will need to wait for is PPR. You can also request for GCMS notes so you can get an idea which stage of evaluation you're in or to see initial notes made by your case manager regarding your application.

I applied August 2015 and October was the last email I got from them saying that they have started the processing PR for my wife. Right now though, I don't think you should be worried.
Thank you for this information, this was very helpful. I hope you don't mind me asking, but what is GCMS notes and how can we request for it?

Oh my, you sent your application earlier than ours and yet you're still waiting. I hope you get your decision very soon.
