My husband in Philippines send his passport last april 25, 2014 but until now we haven't receive it yet. Until how many months does the manila immigration need to hold my husband passport? I'm so worried because some are saying it doesn't take long to send back the passport with visa.

CEM also received my son's passport the same day. April 25. Cem sent the passport back to us June 11th.

Don't worry. For sure your hubby will receive it soon.

My wife's passport reached the Singapore visa office on 12 March, and she got it back (along with visa and COPR) a little over 2 months later on 16 May. So your husband should get back his pretty soon :). Here's a big tip: try to contact your local MP so he/she can find out the status of your husband's application...

What MP means?
MP stands for Member of Parliament. Plug in your postal code here and you'll find his/her contact info:

I contacted my MP's office and they were able to find out the status of my wife's application.

To those that have already received their passport with Visa...

When you sent your Passport to CEM, did you also include a self addressed stamped envelope so that they can return your passport to you? Or did they just use their own courier service for the return?

My wife sent a self addressed envelope (with no stamp) and indicated on Appendix A that she'd like the passport to be returned via registered mail.

If you want the passport returned via courier, you'll have to send a prepaid courier envelope, as the visa office won't pay for it...
