so this is what happened.

my husband received a phone call from a lady at CEM. she gave him a mini interview, asking questions about himself, our daughter and myself, asked him about important dates (wedding, birthdays), ect. then she asked him if he can be in canada before oct 19. he said yes then, asked why? she said because his medical is expiring and he must leave before the expiry date. if he doesnt leave before that date he must do a re-med before he enters canada. then she mentions to him that his application is being "rushed" due to the medical expiry date. and they are working hard to make sure people wont need to do a re-med. then she tells him, they sent his passport yesterday and will receive it in 3 to 4 days.

yehey! bought a ticket already oct 17!! $575 CDN one way ticket, PAL, 12 hour flight, Manila to Vancouver. then he will be here! :) - i wanted it to be sooner, but he said he needs to make sure who will be taking care of the house, car, animals, ect. before he transition his way to canada!! hehehe....
ang galing naman toppie :) congratulations to you and your family and this brings good vibes to everyone!!!

@everyone ask ko lang kung talagang sa meds expiry naka base ang pag priority ng process meron pa bang oct. mag expire ang meds? wala lang just to gauge kung tama ang expiry of meds as indication ...

once again thanks everyone :) im happy to share my app experience with you guys., cause i know how all of you feel, just waiting and waiting...

@ tangandtin: yes i sent a letter about 2 weeks ago to manil.immigration @ international.gc.ca , using my husband's email. i mentioned that his meds expiring, they sent me this:

Dear Mr,
Your file is currently queued for review by the Visa Officer. You will be advised of the additional processing requirements accordingly.
We trust this information is of assistance.

^they told me nothing about his medical. so that same day i ordered the ATIP notes, which i still haven't received (i don't think ill be needing those notes anymore. hehe). i was just like everyone else wondering if he needed to go thru another re-meds.

@ tagnum: congrats on the landing...

hopefully i addressed everyone in the forum


(eCAS still says "Application Recieved") the woman said they sent his passport Sept 24 Philippine Time - so it's been two days, and they still haven't updated the eCas status
