Hi,
How do you know when medical have expired?
If it is maybe we should go get medical done now in advance?

hello everyone...question lang po. Ano kaya ang factors bakit ang iba, they got their PPR and Visa so fast. Why yung iba, antagal?

1. Is it the Visa Officer assigned to our papers?

2. Is it the length of time you and your husband/wife been married?

3. Is it the volume of the proof submitted?

Any ideas??? thanks.

i think the medical expires after a year. i had my medical even before we've submitted the papers so we can already include it in the envelope to be submitted to Mississauga. weve been thinking it would make the application faster since we dont have to wait for the request for medical.

Hi Chealsiviel,

I dont think so na makakaaffect ang vacation ni hubby mo sa application while it is ''in process'' coz I have that same scenario too. Last October nagbakasyon din ang hubby ko here and in fact nagpunta pa nga kame sa embassy to follow up may PPR dun lang namen nalaman na pinadalhan na pla ako ng later but unfortunately hindi ko siya narecieve kaya on that day they gave us another copy of the letter.. So wala namang silang comment and theres no disadvantages at all,i think nakatulong pa nga... Nakakafrustrate na rin kasi,we're missing our spouse very much and i think they're surely understand that..

Hope it helps..
Godbless us:)
Thank you sis!:) Yeah they should understand how torturing it is for us to be away from our loved ones. huhuhu!:'(

Hi! To be honest with you ganyan na ganyan talaga ang mga nagbago sa Ecas ko then 2weeks after I got DM then Visa 5 days later! You should be happy and start celebrating by now! Hehehe.. Im just wondering what took your application that long? Anyway, it's better late than never!! More patience and never stop praying! Best of luck and congratulations in advance.. God bless us always!! CHEERS..

I think cannot rejoice as of yet... In fact we are worried.... we are hoping to receive a re-medical request from CEM since my medical already expired last January 21... "IN process" it says in ECAS but I want to know from the others as well if this is also the status of their ECAS when they receive the re-medical request from CEM...

Hi! for the longest time application received ang status ko sa ecas. since last year pa yun and i submitted passports april 2011. september 1, 2011 nagexpire ang medicals ko and received request for re-take ng medicals dec 1, 2011. we had our medicals dec 28 and per dr timbol it was transmitted to CEM jan 16. so now waiting pa din ulit and same status pa din sa ecas.

although just today nawala ang address sa ecas and based sa mga nabasa ko dito sa forum thats a good sign? can anyone confirm that? :)

thanks!

1. yes depende sa vo na may hawak ng papers.
2 and 3 pwedeng yes or no pero ang pinaka reason sa tingin ko eh kung genuine ba ung relationship or hindi case to case basis talaga or lucky lang iba kase masipag ung vo and dapat 101% check ung application and complete docs para d din sila mahirapan.

hi juncess! when i received and sent back the docs that cem were requiring me, i just sent a PHOTOCOPY of the letter. Yung original, remembrance ko na un.. :p question #2, you should write your married family name if and only if you used it in all the documents that you had been sent. lastly, about the courier, i chose LBC. u can track it though. they have a tracking number anyway. mine took only a day before cem received it. good luck and God bLess ;)
thank you autumnal! sent mine yesterday! hope to receive my visa very soon! :)
