hi Kaissin,

Yes, the thing that I do not understand is I assigne CEm as my VO, AOR received is under my Manila address, but apprarently, I received an email from CIO that my file has been transfered to SGVo, I didnt request for it, then now I am so shocked and still cant get over it,

Hi Four Angels, we have the same outline. I am also pinoy and i have chosen CEM as my VO, however, they opted to send my file to SGVO for further process. Hope to hear some good news before end of the year.

All my planned stuck for years just because of sgvo. I'm on 31st month already. just need to finish up this game badly so that we can move on with our life. Even atip people are super slow now. I requested for GCMS note 45+ days ago and still haven't received it.

did they reply to your inquiry luccy_di?
@ taivoi you have gone quiet brother! I guess you are also very frustrated and tried.

nope, affarin. they haven't replied to my inquiry for almost 4 weeks already. Strike made things become harder and harder than b4, I guess. I will email them one more time next week to try out my luck to see how things go.You should try this time, too, affarin. Nothing for us to lose at the moment though.

Well, all my plans are stucked up because of this waiting game,too. All of us here are fed up with SVO's proccessing time, really.

@ taivoi: how's your case ? You have been waiting for over 6 months, haven't you ?

Hope for a bright future for all of us.

Hi bro, i am in singapore now for leisure trip. It is a long wait, so let's forget about application for a while, enjoy our life, im tired of slow processing of sgvo, but nothing we can do, just ignore it for a while. Some people waiting for ppr for months, even years, so, nobody knows when it comes, we cant sit and thinking about it everyday for a long period of time.

pafso strike ended...so i presume that they will start processing in October? Hopefully ffarin/Taivoi/eaaaasssyy can faster get their updates from sgvo


steveheng>>are you in canada already?


i agree with taivoi about keeping our minds off the application, thats why this december, my wife and I are heading to calgary for a month to spend winter...hopefully after that we can get some updates! it's crazy having to put our minds in this 24/7..... =)

 

[kaisin82]

23months and waiting......any updates for provincial nominees??? some movement in the for spousal sponsorship....

 

[Mr. Easy]

Do u think guys this time around it will decrease the processing time ? Down to 20 perhaps !? Or am I just dreaming on !!!

Ha ha ha i think you just dreaming on. their should be no chance to decrease their time line, but not be increase.

 

[ffarin11]

I sent an email 3 days ago to atip regarding my gcms note. Today they sent me the file and apologize sincerely for the delay! But there is no real update on note. only medical passed. security, criminality: not started and there is no hidden text on my note.

Hi farin,
It means that the strike really did impact the process. I think that my case would be the same to yours.
They have just come back to the office for two weeks, isnt it?

Hopefully, we're gonna receive any update frim them very soon.

yeah luccy_di the note they sent me was 1 month old. Hopefully they would be working overtime after the strikes the clear the backlog as much as possible.

Hi Guys and gels,

Currently we are on the process of applying for FSW to Alberta and still new to all the lingo and acronyms, anyway my family (wife and 2 kids) are here in Singapore, Ive been reading a few pages back and is a bit worried, coz we are planning to submit our Application this Dec 2013 here in Singapore.
Now my question, We are from the Philippines and are PR here in Singapore, would it be possible to submit our application to Philippines ( Manila) VO instead of
Singapore VO? or I should submit it to the country of Residence? sorry still new at this and hope I will be enlightened.

thanks so much in advance and good luck to all of us.
