esr,

i live and work here in metro manila. i think you can get married now, since you already have your file number. you just have to update them regarding your civil status, and maybe submit additional documents of your spouse but this might delay your processing time a little longer. however, if you are not in a hurry to go to canada i think this option is better, so that you and your spouse can go to canada at the same time. otherwise, if you wait for your loa before you get married, your spouse can just follow you. not really sure if my answer is right, this is just based on my opinion... maybe you can ask experts in other forums. this might be of help. this was shared to me by one of the members of this forum... good luck! :)

hi raffy888 - CEM received our passports last May 5, 2010

Hi mamiganda,

Is that also the same day when you couriered your passport/s? When did you couriered your passport and did the embassy inform you that they received it already?
 
hi to all members,
I joined this forum not for myself but for my daughter. She and her husband (principal applicant) were sponsored by my brother. My brother submitted their application last Dec. 2009 and we received a letter March 16, 2010 stating that their application has been received and will be in process.

I hope, with God's help, we will get positive feedback soon.

ESR keep me posted with the status of your application coz your application was submitted also last Dec. 2009 and you received your acknowledgment last march 2010. Our timeline is the same. God Bless to all of us...
