I have no idea how long it takes before they ask for passports. CEM is kinda inconsistent I guess. Some forum members got their AOR then Medical request on a week or so. Somebody got MR first before AOR. In my case, AOR with RPRF and additional docs first but Medical Request has not yet arrived. It's been more than a month already since my AOR from Manila VO.
Good luck to all and congratulations to those who got their visas!
@Mayonnaise, I would assume encashment will be faster - ~ 1 week as CEM will be wary the exchange rate will change. However, from encashment to PPR - as carlziess has mentioned - CEM is inconsistent.carl zeiss said:Hi there. In my case my Manager's Check for RPRF was encashed in just a few days.

Cheer up - it was a long wait, but yours is a positive bit of news from Manila for quite some time now.
