YOU TIMELINE IS LIKE TRUESMILE, JUST YOU ARE 2 WEEKS BEHIND TRUESMILE, I DO BELIEVE YOU WILL RECEIVE UR VISA BY NEXT WEEK
Agreed! Hubby will have no need to see MP, you'll get 'DM' next week . . . and VISA courier collect (DHL) three days later (ok, maybe four).

Thx for the previous 'congrats'! Sorry to see T-N.B. your application timeline seems to fall into the "exception" category - exceptionally LONG, although your signature appears to have quite a few more milestone dates errr a.k.a. "hoops" that we didn't hafta jump through.

Hello !!!! everyone waiting.... I do have alot to say on this Sat. night while I wait for my beautiful wife in Quezon City.The CEM is the slowest of all... and how many of you paid the 1040.00 dollars in advance saying it would be faster....and for anyone that tried to get your spouse a visitor visa...thats even more unreal!!!! they hire a company called VIA... they are not even Canadian.... but they can process it in 9 days but will decline you and send you a letter called Regulation 179 and still take your money....of 75.00 Canadian dollars... So don,t try this...they even know your spouse has to return to Manila to wait for their PPR...Did anyone notice how fast it took to get your legal cap. to marry... about 45 mins and the person that looks it over is not even Canadian....then a Canadian comes out and signs it real fast. wow !!! a real fast 50.00 bucks....Now the waiting starts.... 4 months for the NSO and then all the medicals and pics and police clear... Sometimes I think the CEM is so corrupt that the officer waits for your medical to expiry then they send it back and make you do it all over again and the DR. pays the officer a commission on every one they send back....Hey !!!its the Fils....I was married to my spouse May 7/12 and sent our app Aug 29/12 and was approved Oct 16/12... I bet her PPR will be after May 7/13 and make us do the whole thing all over again....since we did the medicals while I was in Manila....As we are Canadians we should have the right to call or go to our embassy in Manila and be able to check our status....but they won,t let you....Wasn,t that Russia in 1980...the USA moves faster than Canada does and the population is much bigger.... Why? we let PR sponsor... you should only be Canadian to do this... I,m sorry to say that. and to say one more thing I,m 53 years old and my wife is 51 but the way the CEM is working she will never get here...and we both lost our mother while we have been waiting... I do hope everything works out for all of us and hey check the spread sheet... but if you notice not one of use got a PPR in 9 days.... they must be doing Japan now... hey they get to come to Canada without a visitor visa... get back ..... Scott
oh my i do feel you Scott... both me and my husband has this load of frustrations with embassy Manila. I do agree with you that they are really corrupt, my husband even cited on his letter of request to just have my medical be extended up to 15 months as what is stated on this link http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/manuals/bulletins/2012/ob423.asp but hell no they don't even understand what this Operational Bulletin 423 is all about lol lol lol, of course they are wise and will asked everyone to get a re-medical for another P5,250.00 than have it extended (of course it's an income for them). And yes they will say to us to be "PATIENT"?????????????????? our Canadian daughter who was born here is already 3 years old, growing without her Daddy beside her and telling us to be "PATIENT"!!!!! They're all sick!!!! Really tired of all their BS and getting more money from the applicants... My husband in not a rich Canadian guy, but a hardworking one who valued every cents he earned from his courier business... I am a hotel manager and wont throw away my money to them too and with all these crap that CEM asked for the applicant to re-do and submit to them in order to proceed with the applications are all BS!!!! Again i will say it, CEM'S GOAL IS NOT ABOUT REUNIFICATION OF FAMILIES BUT DESTROYING IT!!!!!!

HI to Ms Jennifer..! ;) Matanong ko lang po sa inyo Ms Jen., natanggap kya ng CEM ang additional documents at passport na pinadala ko? kc dun sa labas ng envelope ito po kc address na ginamit ko.

To:Family Class Section
VISA Section
Level 6 Tower 2,RCBC Plaza
6819 Ayala Avenue
Makati city 1200
Phil.

Tama po ang address na nasa taaspo pero dapat po ang ginamit nyong courier ay DHL,LBC, FEDEX dapat po ang yan na courier para sigurado po kayo na matatrack nyo at siguradong safe. Gamitko po lagi DHL. Tapos palagi pong atwag kakalimutan ilagay sa upper right side ang File # para alam po nila sa sa inyo yun sa pamamagitan ng File #.

at dun ko hinulog sa Post Office tapos late ko nalaman dapat daw kapag thru mail, ito daw yung address na gagamitin.

To: Visa Section
P.O Box 2168
Central Post Office
Makati,Metro Manila

Itong Address naman po na ito di ko po sya nagamit.


Tanggapin kaya ng CEM yun envelope kahit hindi courier yung nag pick up sa addtional documents and passports ko?sobrang ikinabahala ko po yun bka e disregard lang kc application papers ko?hope to see your answer.

Kahit po namali kayo ng address kung ano sa dalawa alam na po nila yun kung san ang envelope na sinend nyo as long as na merong File number. Ako po nung first ko nakatanggap ng URGENt letter from CEM namali rin po ako ng address na nalagay tama na kasiyung sinulat ko pero nung pumunta ako sa DHL alam na nila agad ang address at binago ko pero nalimutan ko lang nun ilagay ang FAMILY CLASS SECTION. :)

TAGUM-N.B. i guess CEM needs attention by the canadian government to invistigate the people around it, in fact IF MANILA CANADIAN EMBASSY (CEM) will continue this kind of system...its really sick!!! this may cause bad impression/record to the CANADIAN GOVERNMENT...i wish KENNEY can read this forum and check out what is happening.

hello po,
just to make sure lang po.. pwede na po ba kami mag pasa kahit na bago palang po sa work si hubby? kaka start nya lang po kasi sa new job nya so hindi pa po pwede sabihin na stable yung job nya.. ma dedeny po ba sya kung ganun? matagal na po sya sa Canada at matagal na din po sya nag wowork, nagkataon lang po na bago yung work nya ngayon.

he told me hindi pa pwede, so kailangan pa namin mag hintay hanggang february or march, sa tingin nyo po pwede na po ba? salamat po.
Sis, have you receive any reply from this question? I guess naman siguro pwede, kase you said matagal na sya duon... but better to ask others pa rin or do a research to philippines.gc.ca :p ;) :D ;D Pray to God na unti-unti masagot or malinawan ang ating mga katanungan for our application... God bless you sis!!! Me, I am not yet done with that form spouse sponsored questionnaire, want to be concentrated when answering it... :p
