Chineck ko na po mga 3 times ko binasa uli mukhang wala naman! Sana ung susunod na request ay PPR na. Congratulations po nakakuha na kayo ng PPR!

Congratulations friends! Nakakatuwang makakita na may nakakakuha na ng PPR ng applicants from late last year. Super happy ko for you guys! See you dito sa Canada :) Baka meron din dadating dito sa Winnipeg?

November applicant ang hubby ko, sana siya din makakuha na soon. Hindi kami nawawalan ng pag-asa. :)

- Cosigner will be your spouse yes but it's really for the sponsorship agreement if you are going to sponsor another family member like a parent. CIC sometimes uses the same forms when you're applying to sponsor in the Family Class. In our case, it's a spouse sponsorship so it doesn't make sense to co-sign for yourself if you're the one being sponsored. In our application, I just filled it up/signed everything that had the spouse/applicant on it just to be safe :p

- If you're doing upfront medical (meaning you do your medical exam before sending your application), you have to include the receipt from the doctor's office for your medical exam. Most doctor's offices transmit the medical results electronically but they still give you a receipt/form to include in your application or at least mine did so ask your doctor to be safe. This is the link on the CIC website for the list of authorized doctors: http://www.cic.gc.ca/pp-md/pp-list.aspx

- Assuming you don't have any other dependents the breakdown of the fees will be:
Sponsor (Your husband): 75$
Principal Applicant (Yourself): 475$
Right to Permanent Residence Fee: 490$
Total: 1040$ CAD
The complete list of the fees are listed on this link from the CIC website: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/fees/result.asp?countrySelect=PH&lob=fc (For Philippines)

- I don't see a problem with black and white except maybe some pictures may not look as clear? I used regular printer paper for our application but I had our pictures printed in color.

- For applying outland, this is the complete application package http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/fc.asp . Yea the website can be overwhelming but it honestly has all the information you need. What I did was patiently read through all of the guide completely and then answer the forms to the best of my ability and if I had doubts, I went back to the guide (ctrl+f was my best friend haha) or here on the forums. ALSO THIS IS IMPORTANT: Make sure the forms you use are up to date when you send in your application. What I did was list down on notepad the dates for all those forms and check the CIC website to compare every week or so up until the day I was sending our application by mail. I think they updated it 2 or 3 times on the 3 months I was getting our applicaiton ready. I have heard of stories where CIC returned their entire application if some forms are not updated. Download all the forms on that page, answer them and for the ones that are not applicable to your case, write N/A on them and on the checklist.

Easy links for the guides:
Guide for filling up the sponsorship part of the application: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/3900ETOC.asp
Guide for Principal Applicant: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/3999Etoc.asp
Country-specific guide/checklist: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/guides/3905e.pdf (For Philippines)

Hope that helps and good luck!
Thank you for this. I have visited all the links you gave and it will help me a lot. I will use your tactics too! May I? (ctrl+F) :)
I came across with a word, "transitional provision" - do you know what is that?
I am only sponsoring my husband, we don't have any dependents which means I do not need to fill-up the co-signer part?

There were some parts of our proof of relationship that is not in English and I have to translate it. Can I just translate it by myself or I need someone who will translate it?
(Those are the Comment threads and posts on our social networking site)


Thank you for answering all my questions.

Anna

You can do that. LBC it to VFS using their address, but you need to put the payment in the envelope too. The payment should be in a form of managers check. Were you able to follow up the MVO before through email regarding your status?
