Hi To All....

Just want to share something and will seek for your advice...andito ako ulit sa forum after almost a year i think...since ang timeline ko is last July of 2011 pa...ang case ko for some who may not know is...

July 3rd week 2011 .... approval of Mississagua
August 2nd week 2011 .... submitted my Passport and additional documents with Appendix A
April 2012 .... asked for CAIPS result
June 2012 .... received letter saying that I did not meet the requirements for spouse visa
July 2012 .... submitted 18 Affidavits as a proof that I and my husband did not fall into common law
partner/conjugal (with an Atty in Winnipeg Canada)
October 2012 .... seek for help from an MP to have a detailed result since asking from our Atty cost too
much
January 2013 ... did ask help again from MP
February 8, 2012 .... received an email from CEM scheduled for an interview on March 20, 2013

.....hi sis emern, sa iyo ba nung time na ininterview ka, what are those questions they have asked you? i just want to prepare myself since i consider this as a big challenge dahil gusto ko everything will go smoothly and gusto ko ng magka visa...hirap na hirap na kami ng husband ko, and we all know ang hirap ng malayo sa asawa lalo na at wala pa kaming anak at the same time we are both getting older...

....kayo mgs sis and brothers who undergo an interview ano ung mga questions sa inyo para magka idea lang din ako...

Hi jen....this is it...ang mataggal ko ng hinihintay....

Hi nath and anton (which we have the same case)...eto nagpost na ko and as promised to both of you i will update whatever ang result ng case ko.

Please include me in your prayers...thanks
Di ko man napagdaanan ang Interview sis pero I know how you feel napakahirap siguro nyan pero nagawa ng iba at nakapasa makakaya mo rin yan at makukuha ang VISA . Pero one thing I wanted to tell you heto na yun binigyan ka ng CEM ng chance to prove how GENUINE your relationship between you and your hubby. Sana sis wag mong sayangin itong chance na ito. Saka siguro sis ang mga itatanong lang sa iyo ay kung ano ang mga sinagot mo sa mga Forms na sinagutan mo.

Ang maibibigay ko lang sayo sis ay pampalakas ng loob, at saka siguro kung ano ang tanong yun ang sagot walang labis walang kulang. Look straight sa mata ng interviewer mo para lang sigurong sa Immigration Officer sa Airport kasi magagaling sila sa Psychology part yun ng trabaho nila malalaman nila kung nagsasabi ka ng totoo sa galaw ng mata mo, kilay at bibig.

Wag kang mawawalan ng pag -asa sis basta tandaan mo palagi di lang ikaw ang nag-iisang Applicant na na-interview meron pang iba at nakapasa sila at ganun din ang kalalabasan ng sayo. Palagi mong ilagay sa isip mo na kaya mo yan para positive lahat ang maging resulta.

Don't worry sis isasama din kita sa Prayer's ko lahat kayo dito pinagdadasal ko na makasama nyo na rin ang mga mahal nyo sa buhay tulad namin ng iba pa.

You mean sis whne your husband applied for sponsorship di pa kayo married? Nagtataka lang po ako why CEM approved your application on the onset and question your application after almost a year...tsk loko talaga!

Anyway sis, goodluck sa interview mo. Maging confident ka lang answering questions. Kaya mo yan:)

Hay, salamat dumating na sa asawa ko yung Snail Mail ng approval niya bilang sponsor. Naconfirm lang kasi niya sa phone kaya antay talaga kami letter. Hayss sana kung gaano kabilis na approve ganun din kabilis ang labas ng visa natin lahat. :) andito nadaw sa Manila application namin sana mag confirm na ang CEM. Huhu pray lang tayo lahat na pabilisin ni God mga taga CEM. :) Goodnight sa lahat! God Bless us all!

I feel you man. But the TRUTH is every government institutions here in the philippines is like that so im not surprised if CEM will also be influenced or affected by it thats the FACT and it'll always be! We just have to accept it coz we are here in the PHILIPPINES all we can do is to wait, wait and wait. I know it sounds frustrating but what can we do we dont hold their minds in making decisions about our applications.

PS: WE CAN SPEAK WHATEVER LANGUAGE WE WANT WHENEVER WE WANT COZ ITS OUR THREAD FOR MANILA, PHILIPPINES though we can also speak english whenever someone asks a question in english but that doesnt mean we cant speak in our native language ryt? *no offense* IF YOU WANT A PURE ENGLISH SPEAKING THREAD GO MAKE YOUR OWN.

I hear you Sir. I am positive you are not the only one in that situation. At the end of the day, we can't do anything but to hope and pray for the betterment of the Visa office/processing. I don't think they would even listen to our rants.

On the other note, I believe speaking Filipino in this particular thread is not supposed to be insulting as some of the members can only express their words better in Tagalog. If you need any translations, I think everyone will be happy to translate it for you if you just ask nicely.

Good luck, I hope the light will come out on your application soon.

Why can’t I see my case status online?

There are several reasons why you may not be able to see your case status online via CAS. They include the following:

The application is not yet in process: Your application status is available only once the processing of the application has started.
You have submitted a type of application that is not included in CAS: You cannot see information on temporary residence applications (work permit, study permit or visitor record) on CAS. Note: Applicants who used MyCIC to apply will receive an email update once a decision has been reached regarding your application.
You are not the sponsor or principal applicant for an immigration application: As a family member included on an immigration application, you cannot view the status of your application online. You can view your profile but not the status of your application. Only the sponsor or principal applicant can see the status information.
Note for spousal sponsorship:

The sponsor will only have access to information about the sponsorship part of an application.
The applicant will only have access to information about the permanent residence part of an application.
The application is no longer in progress: Once a decision has been made, the application remains in CAS for a certain number of days and then is removed from the system. The length of time an application stays in CAS depends on the type of application.
Permanent Residents applications will stay in CAS for 180 days after the applicant has landed.
Permanent Resident cards will stay in CAS for 30 days after the client receives their card.
Citizenship applications will stay in CAS for 180 days after CIC has made a final decision.
Application for visas that have been refused, withdrawn or expired will stay in CAS for 365 days.
The wrong personal information is being entered: Sponsors or principal applicants for immigration and all citizenship applicants may enter their personal information to access the case status. However, dependants included in sponsorship or permanent resident applications cannot use their own personal information to do so.
There are differences in the way your personal information was recorded: Make sure the information appearing in your application matches that on your passport or identity documents. If there are errors, you may not be able to see your case status.
There is a temporary technical issue: Sometimes, online services are temporarily unavailable due to system maintenance.
You are using a Web browser that CAS does not support: You may use Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari and Chrome. Other browsers are not supported.




i hope this can help.. ;) :)
