October applicants started getting PPR.
Talaga nauna pa mga October? hmmm masamang pangitain. Pero may iba naman na nag PPR na dati pa pero until now medyo natagalan din ang visa issuance. Hindi talaga malaman or paano ang trending or basehan dahil case to case basis at depende sa visa officer.. Parang mas mainam na mag "In process" before mag PPR...or whatever...in the end eh visa rin naman babagsak lahat..mahirap lang talaga magwaiting game.. :)

Nice Chris..it is quite hard waiting for loved ones to join us in Canada or harder waiting for the embassy communication. Im sure Manila is loaded or has a big backlog. Ours was filed july 31..technically i should be batch of August...well for sure that family reunification is coming soon..

Dear friends and members,

If you are concerned about the processing times for your respective visa office or empathize with people that have to endure such a long period of time without being with their loved one and you would like to show your support or find ways to contribute, you can:

1) Sign the petition
http://tinyurl.com/majlurl
OR
http://www.gopetition.com/petitions/improve-processing-times-for-spouse-sponsorship.html

2) Email family, friends and colleagues informing them of your situation and requesting support to sign the petition

3) Add to your signature in your profile:
Improve spouse sponsor processing time: http://tinyurl.com/majlurl


This is an election year and I believe there is strength in numbers.

I have read the petition. This is a good thing for us and our spouse and children or dependants. For CIC to improve the processing time for family reunification. :)

PER: 26- 01-2015
HI everyone,

I'm an October applicant and I just got PER last January 26(please hear me first and don't throw me out). I just want to ask, I have a fiance and we wonder whether it is better to get married before I have a visa or file for spousal sponsorship instead. Pwede po ba malaman what are the pros and cons? the thing is that I dont want to rush marriage but I also want to consider the advantages and disadvantages. Please help.

Thank u and I hope for the best on our application. God bless

wow ang swerte mo naman, appendix A is a different form its not the checklist. Usually they ask this if you are PPR or passport request which I think you are. Wala ba nakaattached dun sa email sa iyo na Appendix A form?
