Singapore Timeline

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.

I think you send app to CIO, then they decide which VO to forward, not us.

Taivoi is correct, you will send your papers to Centralized Intake Office in Sydney, Nova Scotia. From there your papers will be verified if complete or not, if no problem, they will send it to your visa office. Usually they are sending it to where you live for last 6 months I think. I am not sure if there's an option to request for visa office. Some Pinoy requested to send their papers to Manila Visa Office but still they send it to SGVO.

Thank you for your message to the High Commission of Canada, Immigration & Visa Section.

We do our best to make sure everyone who has applied to immigrate to or visit Canada is provided with effective service.
We receive an enormous amount of correspondence daily. Although we would like to respond to all of it, we recognize that it takes resources away from processing applications.

To minimize the impact that replying to enquiries has on processing times, we respond only to correspondence from people who have already applied for a permanent resident (immigration) or temporary resident (visitor, temporary work, study) visa or permit.

Kindly note that we are not able to acknowledge receipt of documents, changes of address, and other case-related information. We can assure you, however, that it will be placed on file.

You may use our secure web site to submit additional information including attachments and requests for withdrawal or urgent processing.

Reconsideration of refusals:
Please be advised that we do not reconsider a decision once the case has been refused. If the applicant feels that he or she has new or additional information that was not previously available for consideration or if the applicant's situation has changed, he or she may submit a new application and pay a new processing fee. For more information visit the Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) Help Centre.
