Hey guys,

My wife (residing in the Philippines) and I got an email last month from the embassy. They were asking for:

• Fully Completed Appendix A (attached) for you and each of your family members, whether
accompanying you to Canada or not. Passport details are not required for any family member
who is not accompanying you to Canada. (Each person should complete his/her own form.)

• Valid National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) issued under the name: ***** (travelling to Canada), issued within the last six months, with
thumbprint and dry seal affixed. Please send us the original copy. “Personal Copy” is not
accepted. DO NOT FAX YOUR NBI CLEARANCE.

• Original NSO Advisory on Marriages for yourself (see sample)

• Original Passport(s) for you and each family member who will accompany you to Canada


Questions:

1. We're confused about the Appendix A. We both do not have children or have children together yet. She's the only one I'm sponsoring.

We don't need to fill this out correct? Do I need to fill out one?

My initial assumption is that we're supposed to put her parents and siblings names in that form.



2. How and where to send these documents?

At the header, I see these addresses:

a. Family Class Section
Immigration Section
Canadian Embassy, Manila
Level 6, Tower 2, RCBC Plaza
6819 Ayala Avenue
Makati City 1200
Philippines

b. P.O. Box 2168
Makati Central Post Office
Makati City 1200
Philippines
Fax: (63-2) 843-1096

Should we use their courier? If so how do we notify them?

Salamat!


PS
1. We submitted our ppwk late February
2. Notification that they received the ppwk in April
3. Request for new ppwk last August

I hope that's a good sign. I wish to be reunited with her around April-May of next year.

I got the same email from them last Aug 2013. You need to fill out and give whatever they ask for, if you miss even one form, it will be incomplete and you may have to wait longer for the visa

Appendix A - you need to fill out one form only. Just for your wife. Cause you mentioned you don't have children, leave the child 1-5 boxes blank, make sure fill it out, and sign it

NBI - it should be issued within 6 months. If you need to get one it will be pretty fast to get it, if your do not have the same name as someone, if your name is common, then it may take a few hours or days. My husband has a really unique name, it took him less than 5 mins to get.

Original NSO - look at the sample they attached

Passport - send your wife's passport

For the address. It says "Visa Section" on the top. I don't have exact office on me. but it is in the email they asked you to send the additional doc. plus passport

hope it helps!
