Wew! this might be my problem if her employer wont release the passport.Tsk!
Kailangan din ng interview plus medical sa manila right? Thanks a lot and Stay Safe!
interview/medical will be as directed by the CIC handling the process. In my case before while in ksa, my documents were assigned to Abu Dhabi embassy thru the saudi consulate. One problem was my employer would not even allow me to be absent to get a police certificate. Tapos nawala/tinago pa yung documents. I had to give up my job, go back to manila and restart from step 1 with CEM

it is best to avoid electrical items/gadgets with your handcarry. bka di payagan yang may mga wiring n yan. anybody could think that it is an improvized something. Pag nasa taas na kayo, stand in the middle if the isle, hold the dryer with one hand, the other hand holding the end of the plug, itaas mu sabay sigaw. Hahahah sikat ka sa buong mundo!!!!

Tip ng hubby ko sis is that when you choose seats sa flight na papuntang Toronto, dun na kayo sa malapit sa exit.
Then walk fast fast fast going to the immigration before you get your luggage. Fall in line then maybe ask someone
to save your spot on the line and hurry up to get your luggage. :D :D :D

Sa queue kasi matagal. :) Good luck!

ako nga handbag, laptop, DSLR camera bag at carry on. Pero I always take Korean Air kase di sila gano mahigpit sa bagahe at mura pamasahe. Alam mo naman tayong mga pinoy...always over baggage..lol. Kaya lang matagal ang wait ng connecting flight. Also, since 911 most airlines does not allow any liquid and absolutely no to anything sharp in carry ons. Minsan kase yung iba nagdadala ng pusher (for cleaning nails). Sa liquid kung small amount e ok naman.
