guys question naman, may prinepare ba kau na b4 form? or sa mga nakaalis dyan ano experience nila re:b4? thanks po
If you are asking about the B4 and B4A forms for declaring property you don't have to fill those out yourself. Just make sure you have an itemized list of the items that are accompanying you and those that are being mailed separately and give it to the official when you land and he/she can prepare the form from it. The list can be pretty simple. The one I set up for my wife to use has category, item, description, quantity and approximate value columns. So if you have 5 pairs of jeans you can just list:

CLOTHES PANTS ASSORTED COLORS AND STYLES OF DENIM JEANS 5 $125.00

I think you will agree it is much easier this way. Besides, they know how to fill out the forms better than we do. :) Just make sure to keep the two lists ("accompanying goods" and "goods to follow") separate. Hope this helps.

Hi everyone!

It's finally over for me. Mr. 14th got a call around 1PM asking him to come to CEM to pickup his passport with visa. When we submitted the documents together with his passport, I asked him to include a letter stating that we prefer to pick it up than having it sent through courier. Fortunately, they listened.

He initially booked a flight for July 17, but he moved it to 18. As for PDOS, driver's abstract, B4 forms and all that, he's finished it all so he's ready to go! ;D

Lastly, ecas never updated for us. It still says application received with his Philippines address. Our MP advised that the next pull up date for our file was July 15 and it looks like they're right because that's when we got the call.

To everyone, thank you for sticking with each other. I've lost hope along the road as to when this will end, but gathered strength from you all. I wish everyone the best of luck and patience.

God bless!

When will your medical results expire? Oooh you should just stay in Toronto. I'm not sure if you're a city person, but it's just lovely here.
