Opo sis trizienne...lapit na kami umalis kaka-excite na nakakalungkot...Thanks po for info...iniisip ko kasi saan lugar kami makikipag-unahan ng anak ko pagpila sa immigration...hehehe...so meaning pag dating sa Toronto ok lang mahaba pila immigration at least di ako worry na maiiwan kami next flight...hehehe...God bless po.
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!

ok sis..thanks..parang laptop bagblang unh trolley na hand carry ko..pasok naman sya sa hand carry size..nagworry lang ako kala ko kasi hindi pwede..thanks arian
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.

Just to confirm:

Do Filipinos,not leaving the airport between flights,dont need a transit visa in Japan?

Thanks
Nope. I've had connecting flights to HK, Japan and Korea. All does not require transit visa. U.S. does. Before you don't but will be escorted. Now even you don't have to leave the airport you still need transit visa.

ready to go na kayo... good for you.

make the trip pleasurable. More than anything, attend to your child at all times - wag mo sya iiwanan kahit sandali. Avoid rush and panic, it's not good for your health! There's nothing wrong staying at the airport for longer period - kaya take a flight sked that is convenient. Hindi ka naman sa giyera papunta. At lalo namang hindi ka hinahabol ng armado hehe. Keep everything in stride.

Stop worrying about so many things. Walk as fast as you can.... you might as well win the gold!

may referral letter na po kayo from embassy? may dadalhin po kayong sulat from embassy, together with original passport and photos. Tawagan nyo po ang clinic at sila amg magsasabi kung ano dadalhin nyo. Marami po kami na doctor dito sa forum e baka magkamali.

@ REDTAG

LAPIT KA NA ALIS SIS.. ASK KA NALANG NG SEAT NA NEAR THE EXIT, PERO WAG KA PIPILI NG SEAT SA GITNA OR SA DULO NG PLANE.. SA IMMIGRATION SA TORONTO MARAMI NAMAN SILA SA COUNTER.. SO SA AKIN KASI DI MAHABA ANG PILA.. MEDYO MATAGAL LANG SA CUSTOMS.. DEN MY MGA PWEDE NAMAN KUMUHA AT MAG PUSH NG LUGGAGE MO PAY KA LANG $10$

good luck have a safe flight!!

Right si nester :)

If spousal application ka, you need your Appendix C, this is your medical appointment form.
Kasama yan ng specific regional forms.
Call Nationwide Health Systems for a more accurate information.
(632) 810-07-85
(632) 888-50-86/810-93-81

O kaya naman ay pwede nyo rin try magtanong sa ibang clinics kung sakali.
Paki-visit na lang :

haven, print and fill up Appendix C then dalhin mo sya sa nationwide, dala ka ng pics at passport. mga 4000 plus binayaran ko last march 2011. di mo na kailangan magdala ng referral from embassy kung under ka ng spouse sponsorship.

Ito guide for family class application, andito rin ung Appendix C.. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/guides/3905e.pdf

goodluck sa application mo.

Hi
Ask ko lang mga kabayan kung meron sa inyo na ang case ay similar sakin.
I'm planning to sponsor my wife (filipina) but she is currently working in Saudi Arabia.
Kindly share your experiences. Thanks a lot.
reyzki, Middle east visa office is in Abu dhabi, processing time is 27 months. Most companies in Saudi keep their employees passport, so I dont think she can give her passport to the embassy once they requested it.

Your wife's best option is to repatriate and wait while her application is being processed. Normal processing time in CEM is 10 months, but most of the forumers here got their visa in 4th or 5th month.
