Oh, my hubby is also a canadian-québécois :). We will attend pala the same seminar which is GCP :). Pero sa September pa ko magpapa-online schedule coz sa October pa naman ang intended flight ko to Canada :)
Thats nice to know nancy! Malay mo magcross path natin kapag napagawi kami sa hometown/state ni hubby :)
I've already attended the GCP early last year kasi requirement sa passport renewal.

QUESTION

I emailed CEM(Aug4) regarding sa wrong spelling ng pangalan ko sa emails nila and sa ecas ko mismo.
I got an automated reply na they received my email and makakatanggap ng email within 28 days.

Then I got another email(Aug5),
We received your email re:file #F00000000, we note that the file was received on the 26th of March.
If you have sent us this email to report important changes regarding application, we will add this info to your file....


Yan na ho ba yun? Feel ko kasi automated pa rin. And hanggang ngayon mali pa din spelling ng pangalan ko sa ECAS. Although, my ecas says na last updated May pa. Paranoid lang, baka kasi magkamali sa pangalan, baka magkamali ulit eh lahat ng documents tama naman nakalagay pero pag send nila sakin, mali.
Hi Bbvv, ung sa husband ko wrong spelling din sa Ecas. Nothing to worry naman sabi ng CIC nung tinawagan ng husband ko before. Basta tama ung mga sinulat sa application. :)

no problem, glad to be of help. yes, we booked for philippine airlines. the flight took 18hrs. stop over in vancouver and they stayed there for an hour. he didn't fill up any b4 form. only the declaration form which has been given to them during the flight. he said there were lots of new immigrants but it was fine.

the custom officer asked him about his status and how many luggages he have. he told him to proceed to immigration office and wait there. funny, because the one who guided him through the office was the one who will interview him. hubby was so surprised. lol!

the immigration officer asks him whatever was in the COPR. if my address is correct, any other relatives here in canada, dependants and who's waiting for him outside. he was so nice. he congratulate my husband and welcome him. after that he went to get his luggages and meet me in the waiting area...happiness :)


thank you. you're welcome :)

thank you. God bless :)


p.s. congratulations to those who got IN PROCESS and DM's. bon voyage to all that are leaving soon. May God continue to pour out his blessings to all of us and our family. all the best :)
Hi lambi, nice to hear u again... :) thanks for the info. And yes ganyan din sinabi sa akin ng husband ng friend ko na ngpunta na dyan sa canada last April. Hindi din sya ng fill-up ng B4. Para lang cguro un sa mga ng iimport. :) have a wonderful day everyday! God bless :)

Hi Guys,

Para po sa mga OFW dito na applicants, meron bang nakaexperience na pinapacancel muna ng CEM ang work permit / visa sa bansa kung san ka nagwowork upon PPR?

Sino po mga OFW dito, especially working sa Middle East?

Thanks
Hi shadow,

Pinapacancel ba nila sa iyo?
I used to work sa mid east pero wala na ako doon nang magsubmit kami application.
Nagsecure lang ako mga police clearances from qatar and dubai na not more than 3 months during my application kasi yun ang requirement.
I dont think the rp's/work permit from mid east should be cancelled prior to the issuance of canadian immigrant visa kasi di ba, maka-cancel naman yun kapag nag resign na kayo? Whats more important is the police clearance. Pero kung hinihingi nila ngayon yung cancellation, it means mapipilitan kayo magresign sa trabaho which really uncomfy and unpractical. I personally think it shouldnt be the case.

May nag post kasi dito sa forum around May 2014, Abu Dhabi ang VO nya and pinapacancel yung kanyang Qatar RP upon PPR.

Eh im just wondering, what if PPR na taz may ganung requirement to cancel the RP? 7 days lang ang maximum days na pwede ko istay dito sa Qatar kunsakali after cancellation ng RP...eh di nman pwede umalis ng 7 days notice lang sa company... one month notice talaga para makuha ko yung aking end of service gratuity...hehehe..

Gusto ko lang malaman kung required ba talaga ng VO, or if case to case basis lang.

Thank you ...

Is ur pp expiring? Kasi ok lang namn na yung maiden mo yung gnamit mo the whole application, baka kasi maabotan ka nang ppr tapos wala pa yung pp mo.. in my opinion, no need if it's not expiring pa kasi hindi naman nila care if hindi ka pa nag change of status, they are more concern of the evidences..

Hi forum mates! May you please help me. The embassy emailed me yesterday, asking me to retake my medical exam. If I have my medical exam taken this Saturday, how long will it take for St. Lukes global to submit the result to the embassy? And how long will it take for the embassy to process my papers and to grant me visa? I'm a September 2013 applicant. I had PPR last May.

Hi sis, foreign ung husband mo sis? If yes, ang alam ko mg attend ka ng GCP earlier if u want to adopt the surname of ur husband. Kelangan mo un if mgrenew ka aside sa marriage certificate. Kasi ngsubmit na kayo ng application nyo.
