wag mo antayin the more you wait lalo tatagal.. gawin mo na lang maging busy ka tutal dm ka na and sure visa ka na.. depende din kase sa location kung bat matagal lalo na ngayon maulan may bagyo baka delayed lang
minsan din kase ang embassy sabay sabay nag rerelease ng visa or may cut off sila.. example DM ka ng sunday pero friday sila magrerelease/magpapadala ng visa sa mga courier then sa dhl naman may process din sort out etc dont stress yourself sa pagdating ni mr dhl.. darating din yan think positive and good vibes always smile

remember pag lalo niyo inaantay lalo kayo mageexpect mahuhurt lang kayo pag end ng day kase wala pa si Mr Dhl / or DM sa iba kaya wag kayo mag antay always pray and have faith sabi ng ni chanci "it will strenghten your relationship with your partner and God... More patience and prayers...."

Congrats sa lahat ng DM and sa mga waiting more patience and prayers
to new applicant good luck and double check your papers 100x and don't forget na i pa photocopy and bayaran ng full

hi albyna08
oo maga-appear sa eCAS pag received ng CEM.
Under Permanent Residence sa eCAS mo will be "We received your application for permanent residence on month date, year."
Sa mga batchmate mo kung titignan sa table above, wala pang update after Sponsorship Approval maliban kay Redtag. Kaya wag magpanic agad.
Just be patient po, and keep praying. ;D God bless
