Sa Wakas Natanggap ko na yung postal mail from CEM... ;D ;D ;D
Etong naka sulat;

"This refers to your application for permanent residence in Canada which was received at the Embassy of Canada in Manila on April 11, 2011."

May additional documents silang hinihingi
- Original Passport (buti na lang red coloured na yung passport ko)
- Appendix A form na kasama na pinadala nila.. different ito sa Appendix A na document checklist for immigrant.
- Appendix B Photo Specification.
- Personal history form na kasama na pinadala nila.


Question:
1. Bakit nanghihingi sila ulit ng immigrant photos eh nag submit na ako ng 9 photos kasama nung application? I recall yung 9 photos na pinadala ko sa application ay may sulat lahat sa likod ng name and b-day ko. Di kaya ito ang dahilan kaya they are asking ulit?

2. Ilang pieces ng photos ang kailingan i-submit ulit? Walang kasing nakalagay sa Appendix B. 9 photos pa rin ba?

3. About dun sa personal history na hiningi nila ulit, i think kulang yung information na nailagay ko sa IMM0008 Schedule 1/ Background Declaration form na kasama sa application na pinadala ko kaya nanghihingi ulit sila na updated history from 18years old ako up to present. Nailagay ko lang kasi is 18years old up to year 2000, I forgot na pwede palang mag add ng additional sheet of paper to complete my history details.

4. Pag nag request na ba ng passport ibig sabihin ba nito is approve na yung visa?


@ filipina @ pinoyme @ jumanjix-- Salamat sa mga advise mo!!

Raniloc, thats good news! Ako wala pa nyan halos same date tau na receive ng CEM ag application namin. Where location mo? Regular mail lang ba sulat nila or registered post?
Thanks po!

1. nakalagay ba talaga dun na kailangan nila ng PHOTOS or nakita mo lang kase sa likod ng appendix A?
if meron sila ni request at naka sulat talaga dun then kailangan mo mag pass kung bakit sila nanghingi pwedeng nawala nila or kailangan nila we really don't know the reason bat sila nanghihingi ng additional doc kahit na pass na

2. im guessing na AKALA mo lang siguro na hiningan ka kase wala naman nakalagay kung ilan eh siguro kase nakita mo ung likod ng appendia A n may photo so akala mo hiningan ka i said nga kanina if wala naka lagay talaga dun na naka sulat mismo na nag request sila ng photo meaning wala STANDARD form ung Appendix A / Appendix B (see filipina signiture) pero kung meron nakasulat so mag pass ka na lang ng 9 tutal un naman talaga hinihinig nila

3. dapat 18 - present

4. NO still in process pa din sila kase nanghihingi pa sila ng additional doc nagsstart pa lang sila sa pag process, sa Philippines nauuna ang Passport i-irequest para tuloy tuloy na ung process satin so sagot dito NO pwede kase may hingin pa din sila sayo..


Tama ka MRS VIP.... Upon checking again, nakita ko hinihingi lang nila is Fully Completed Appendix A, Original Passport at Personal history from 18yo to present. Nakita ko lang sa likod ng Appendix yung Appendix B pero walang sinabi na nang hihingi sila ng photos.

Yung mga items na hinihingi nila ay naka Asterisk * lahat.

Thank you very much mrs.vip. Another thing, my wife and I don't have a non-b visa nor work permit here. In short, we are just tourist but we've been here for quite awhile since we only do border exits. Does it matter? Thanks.

Yung sayo nasa manila na right? so wala na connect sa CPC kaya natagal yung sayo kasi late mo na nabayaran ang landing fee mo ngaun baka d makita ng manila na bayad ka na kasi kailangan ok sa CPC-M ngaun comunnicate ng CEM sa CPC-M kung sasabihin mo na bayad ka na. kasi once na late bayad natagal ng 2 months kaya siguro natatagalan sayo dibali kunti nalang. ;)

@ filipina @ pinoyme @ jumanjix-- Salamat sa mga advise mo!!
see sabi sayo eh heheh mabilis pa nga yang sayo heheh... your lucky ;D dont worry yung APPENDIX B Standard forms tingnan mo yang signature ko sa baba naka note na yan hehehe... ang dami kasi naguguluhan dyan sa A & B ang kailangan lang is A sa forms kasi nila magkasama yan pero kung wala naman sa list ng requirements e d mo na kailangan ang photo. pang gulo lang yang Appendix B na yan. ;D

yung personal history kailangan start birthday mo nung 18 years old tas kailangan sunud sunud tlaga sya yung hindi mag papatong yung months kailangan yung start to end month ang kasunud na eh kung anu yung end month ex. januay2000-march2000 employed kasunud nya is april2000-dec2000 unemployed dapat ganun and dapat up to present walang patlang kahit months kung d ibabalik ulit nila yan, madami kasi nagkakamali dyan nalilito kung panu ang kasunod kasi kung mag patong mag conflict sa kanila yan, basta tandaan mo nalang maiige tas suggest ko na bago mo ipasa eh photo copy mo para in the future alam mo kung anu naka record sa kanila. one thing po pede ka mag add ng another sheet ganun ginawa ko isang bond paper ginawa ko title ng form BACKGROUND/SHEDULE 1 then nilagay ko 10. Personal History tas ginaya ko lang din yung format, dapat start ka ng recent pabalik ng 18 yrs old.

pag ni request ang passport means mag start alang sila mag process kung wala na talaga problema approved na nila pero kung may mga conflict dun lang natagal halimbawa makita nila sa history mo ngaun na nag ibang bansa ka pala tapos mga more than 6 months ngaun hahanapan ka nila ng Police clearance sa bansang pinuntahan mo tapos matagal pa mag release kaya dun natagal.

how long have u been there? make sure lang na manila ang nakalagay na visa office, kkung 6 months ka na dyan or sa ibang country ready mo na yung mga police clearance sa ibang country but only if more than 6 months ka nag stay each country. inquire ka sa DMP dyan sa Thailand para sure.

Salamat Filipina nakakatulong talaga mga tips mo... GUmawa muna ako ng draft personal history sa excel documents from 18 yr old up to present and then list the corresponding addresses from 18yo up to present. I plan to submit my passport and personal history via DHL courier by tomorrow afternoon.

Please correct me if im wrong, before sending back the documents (personal history, appendix A & passport) need to write the application file# outside the envelope for easy access & reference by CEM. Also, need to include the original letter from CEM?

Sabi sa sulat in BOLD letters " PLEASE RETURN A COPY OF THIS LETTER WITH THE REQUESTED DOCUMENTS".
"A copy" does this mean, photocopy or xerox copy ng original? OR to be safe yung original letter na lang isama ko?
