SPOUSE / FAMILY CLASS timeline MANILA Visa Office PHILIPPINES

[redwine]

Hi To All....

Just want to share something and will seek for your advice...andito ako ulit sa forum after almost a year i think...since ang timeline ko is last July of 2011 pa...ang case ko for some who may not know is...

July 3rd week 2011 .... approval of Mississagua
August 2nd week 2011 .... submitted my Passport and additional documents with Appendix A
April 2012 .... asked for CAIPS result
June 2012 .... received letter saying that I did not meet the requirements for spouse visa
July 2012 .... submitted 18 Affidavits as a proof that I and my husband did not fall into common law
partner/conjugal (with an Atty in Winnipeg Canada)
October 2012 .... seek for help from an MP to have a detailed result since asking from our Atty cost too
much
January 2013 ... did ask help again from MP
February 8, 2012 .... received an email from CEM scheduled for an interview on March 20, 2013

.....hi sis emern, sa iyo ba nung time na ininterview ka, what are those questions they have asked you? i just want to prepare myself since i consider this as a big challenge dahil gusto ko everything will go smoothly and gusto ko ng magka visa...hirap na hirap na kami ng husband ko, and we all know ang hirap ng malayo sa asawa lalo na at wala pa kaming anak at the same time we are both getting older...

....kayo mgs sis and brothers who undergo an interview ano ung mga questions sa inyo para magka idea lang din ako...

Hi jen....this is it...ang mataggal ko ng hinihintay....

Hi nath and anton (which we have the same case)...eto nagpost na ko and as promised to both of you i will update whatever ang result ng case ko.

Please include me in your prayers...thanks

Hi Sis I was called for an interview last Jan 8. I feel you.What I did was first I gathered all additional proofs ofour relationship lahat lahat na isang malaking laptop bag dala ko.Second,I printed out the possible questions shared here and I studied almost everynight.And last but the most important one is prayers.I gave credits too to some people here sa forum yung mga nakaexprience ng interview din.Tama sila sobrang bait ng mga tao don esp yong visa officer ko.Nong andon na ako waiting for my name to be called kasi dalawa lang kami scheduled for interview sa araw na yon nauna ako, I realized there's nothing to worry about.May mga numbered cubicles don and u will be called at nag.aantay na sayo ang VO mo.In my case she asked my personal info like name,birthdate and birth place.Tapos name ng husband ko birthdate and birth place.And she asked our love story, how it started.You don't hae to feel nervous if u are not hiding anything naman.And then she asked me about sa job ng husband ko don.Saka when kami last nagkita.And oh she asked me if we had disagreements and how we handled it.Basta sis umabot ng 30 or 45minutes ba yon.Di na nga nya naicheck lahat ng docs ko sa sobrang dami.And her last msge was, "I called you for an interiew to see how close you guys are to each other.Based on your answers, I'm satisfiedand for that you approved.However I can't stamped your visaright away coz u need to redo your medical first and renew your passport coz it's less than 6 months now.I will send the instructions for your medical as soon as possbile I will email it right to your account coz the postal here is not working (she's laughed).Everything will be ok in a couple of months.So thank you for coming and hae a good day (with a bigsmileon her face)"..Sobrang saya ko paglabas ng cubicle,dami kong kinain during lunch time. hehe! She sent me the advice for the medicals 2 days aftermy interviewandIn-process na statusko.So sis don't worry everything is good, it's a big chance for you and it's a blessing that you have to be grateful now.Remember that we will get what we deserve in His time.

I feel you man. But the TRUTH is every government institutions here in the philippines is like that so im not surprised if CEM will also be influenced or affected by it thats the FACT and it'll always be! We just have to accept it coz we are here in the PHILIPPINES all we can do is to wait, wait and wait. I know it sounds frustrating but what can we do we dont hold their minds in making decisions about our applications.

PS: WE CAN SPEAK WHATEVER LANGUAGE WE WANT WHENEVER WE WANT COZ ITS OUR THREAD FOR MANILA, PHILIPPINES though we can also speak english whenever someone asks a question in english but that doesnt mean we cant speak in our native language ryt? *no offense* IF YOU WANT A PURE ENGLISH SPEAKING THREAD GO MAKE YOUR OWN.

;D

 

[Polgas]

Manila VO does process apps from other places than the Philippines. So when you say "OUR", who are you referring to?

Oh yeah!
I just woke up from taking a peaceful nap and...boom!
What happened???
Anya meten! Hehe!
I have to admit it! You nailed it POLGAS! Sutil!

I hope foreign spouses of Filipinos should also try to learn how to speak their spouses' language or dialect not only the other way around or not only because the Filipino spouse will be living in Canada anyways.
It might even be a PLUS point in their application... :
Remember, there is a question in our application kit, asking what language/ dialect you use when you communicate to each other. :
I mean, if a foreigner tries to learn or knows how to speak his/ her partner's language...that can also be a PROOF of GENUINENESS of their relationship because it entails a lot of effort on the part of the foreigner. :

Don't you think? In English...Hindi kaba nag-iisip? Literal! Haha!
I hope you think so...hehe!

Be cool, bukol! ;D

Oh my Gulay! highblood much ang kapipolan

But come to think of it, this is the Manila thread, we talk in tagalog or visaya or ilokano and it doesn't matter because if you are nice and respectful enough I'm sure you don't need to force anybody to talk/communicate here in english, if you ask something then we can definitely understand you and we can answer you back even with english carabao or sometimes even with better grammar. Imbyerness!

eh ikaw may naiintindihan ka ba sa mga sinasabe namin? hindi ba dapat eh mag aral kahit konti para makaintindi? hello may google kaya. hehe

Ayaw ko maging bad eh kaso.. hello naman Manila thread nga diba .. malamang majority filipino pa din! MAGTATAGALOG talaga! ano masama? but I understand what you are going through and we feel you, you can throw your frustrations here but please be respectful to us, and to whatever language we choose to speak here. eh gusto ko jejemon o bekimon pano pa yun jejejeje lol haha

Back to good vibes na tayo everyone. Siguro malungkot lang talaga sya...Intindihin na rin lang natin ang kanyang pinagdadaanan..

LOL akee and mskade ;D hayaan na natin guys erase erase na natin yung issue :-*
