Hi! Pareho tayong Manitoba-bound tapos Aug 16 din nag-start iprocess application ko. Kanina naka-receive na ako ng tawag from the embassy,pinapa-pickup na sa akin visa ko sa Thursday,August 30. Kelan ba mag-expire medical mo? Dun kasi nag-base ang embassy sa akin kaya inihabol nila visa ko. Kaya din sya for pickup instead of delivery. :)

Matagal na akong di nakaka visit sa forum.... Congratulation sa mga nag DM na at naka kuha na ng Visa... :D :D :D Doon sa mga waiting pa.. don't loose hope.... talagang mabagal lang ang processing ng CEM...

Share ko lang experience ko sa mula airport hanggang landing..


1. Phil. Airline ang sasakyan namin.. On the day of our flight... Umaga pa lang dinala na namin sa NAIA Terminal 2 yung mga check-in luggage namin.. PAL accepts early check-in kaya dinala na namin parang walang hassle on the hr ng flight namin.. Sa airport, tinimbang yung luggage.. Dapat exact 23K per baggage yung dala nyo.. otherwise talagang papabawasan nila yung laman kahit 1KG ang excess.. Sumobra kami ng 2 kilos kaya binawasan namin.. Buti nagbebenta rin sila ng platic ng bag na parang bayong (200pesos isa)... Doon namin nilagay yung excess baggage... carry-on na lang daw yung excess... so bukod sa dala naming carry-on luggage at laptop backpack meron pa kaming dalang isa pang bag ng plastic bayong.. nag mukhang cheap tuloy forma ko dahil sa bayong (naka Delsey luggage pa naman ako) ... :D :D

BTW.. pag PAL yung airline nyo... you can ask PAL for "entry pass" for your family para makapasok sila sa Departure area... You can request the pass 3 days before your flight... Tawagan nyo lang yung PAL... (check their website).. Kailangan lang ng ID ng papasok sa daparture para mabigyan kayo ng pass.. may bayad na 50ph yung pass... After mag-iyakan at mag hiwalay.. ibalik yung "pass" para makuha ulit yung ID..
very informative...
thanks

5. Pag land ng airplane... as i've said... sundan lang mga kasabay.... Unang haharapin nyo is yung CBSA (passport control) officer. Abot nyo yung passport/COPR at disembarkation card.. Tatatakan ng CBSA yung disembarkation card at ibabalik sa inyo... Sabihin kung may e-de-declare kayo pag tinanong kayo. After ng CBSA kunin nyo na yung baggage sa gitna ng arrival area.. may umiikot doon ng luggage carousel... libre naman ang luggage cart.. humila lang kayo ng isa...

6. Pag nakuha na luggage.. diretso kayo sa immigration office.. may separate room doon sa arrival area.. Iwanan nyo lang yung luggage cart nyo sa labas.. bawal ipasok yung cart sa loob ng immigration office... Pag pasok.. kakausapin muna kayo sa isang corner/booth doon (Newly Landed Immigrants' Counter) at bibigyan kayo ng mga pamplets at discuss sa inyo yung mga gagawin nyo as a new immigrant. Bibigyan din kayo ng number para sa pag pila sa immigration officer.. ( parang number sa mercury drugs pag bibili kayo ng gamot pila-pila din) lol... :D :D :D
Awww nakakatuwa naman po ng kwento niyo, naeexcite n rin ako sa pagdating ng hubby ko.. ipapabasa ko sa kanya ito.. pero bakit kaya ganun nung naglanding ako last year with my parents, sa YVR din, pinapunta muna kami sa immigration (signing of COPR, declaration of money, pamphlets, etc) if I remember right dun na rin kinuha ung goods declaration , naalala ko i heard my mom saying "dried mango", then after that labas na sa baggage to claim ung mga maleta at box namin then proceed to check in for connection flight to YYC. iba na kaya ngaun?

Iba na ngayon unang haharapin is yung passport control... hihingin yung passport/visa with COPR and disembarkation card... tatanungin kayo kung may declare pa kayong iba... kung wala na tatatakan yung disembarkation card at ibabalik sa inyon kasama ng passport/visa COPR.. Then doon na agad sa luggage area para kunin..... After makuha yung luggage..... Immigration area... separate office na katabi lang ng mga luggage carousel....

Sa loob ng immigration office may booth doon.. service canada yata... bibigyan kayo ng number sa pag pila sa immigration counter... Bibigyan din nila kayo ng mga pamphlets at kakausapin kung anung gagawin ng new immigrants.. Pag nakuha nyo na yung number... wait nyong tawagin ng immigration officer yung number nyo kung kayo yung susunod sa pila...

Punta agad sa harap ng immigration counter pag tinawag yung number isama nyo buong family... bigay yung passport/visa/copr at disembarkation card... The immigration officer will process your landing... and check if the address in the COPR is the latest.. The will also ask if you're carrying money more than 10K.. you have to declare it.. Then sign ng copr.. ibabalik yung passport and copy ng COPR nyo na naka staple sa passport.. Then thats it... tapos na... pwede na kayo mag exit sa arrival area.
