congrats nasa saudi pala sya
Hi po,

I just need your insights. Ilang lingo bago na receive ng asawa mo yung passport with Visa sa Saudi. Dito ako sa Dubai, CEM (VO) contacted me last July 7, 2014 confirming my Visa is ready for stamping. Tinanong din ako kung uuwi ako to pick it up personally pero explain ko sa VO hinde na ako uuwi kasi kakatapos ko lng mg pabubong ng house nmin sa Tacloban after Yolanda aftermath. Sabi nila 5 working days lang at maibabalik na passport ko so nag go ako na send nalang.

Insight nman please, resigned na ako sa work dito sa Dubai since advise ng VO kelangan ko makaalis ng Dubai before August 22, 2014. Naka frustrate kasi wala ako magawa, wala sa akin passport ko then naka stamped pa resident visa ko d2 sa UAE sa passport ko. So July 7 ko din pinadala passport via DHL. July 9 nila na received c/o SG Ramirez. Nag email na rin kmi 4 times pero automated and reply lagi.

Thanks

Actually, kung passport lang problema pwede ka humingi ng travel document sa Embassy of the Philippines dyan , valid yun for 1 way travel to Philippines. So pwede ka pa rin naman makauwi. Yun nga lang, bilang OFW, kelangan mo din ipakita yung passport mo sa employer mo siguro, i explain mo nalang sa kanila na nasa CEM at travel docs lang gagamitin mo pauwi

Guys upon reading about the changing of last name s pasport kht hnd pa expired..I came out a certain worry kasi nung nagfile kmi ng papers gamit ko parin ung apelyido ko nung dalaga ako s pasport ko until now n hnhntay ang processing..tingin nyo po b walang magiging problem dun?d kc kmi aware dti n pwdeng mgrenew kht hnd p expired for the sake of changing last names? TIA
actually, okay lang yun na ginamit mo sa pag file yung apelyido mo nung dalaga ka pa, ang importante meron kang mga evidence nga your married with your husband like marriage cert., photos of your wedding etc., in my case para walang sabit o hassle, i changed my passport using my husband's surname.

Walang problema po sa employer ko, ng wowork ako under Emirates Airlines group. I rather go home kesa nman ganito nag aalala ako sa ginagawa ng CEM sa akin.

thanks sa info. so usually it takes 2weeks to 1month bago bumlik passport? kakasend lng nmen khpon ng passport, sana mareceive na ng embassy.
If you've read trewmenn's comment, its not always accurate but in our case, it was relatively fast.. Again, as long as your status in eCAS doesn't change, you really can never tell exactly when.

hello po, nabasa ko lang po, ibig sabihin po pwede mag file using ung old passport ko pa na naka dalaga pa ung name ko? kakakuha ko lang po kasi nung 2012 ng passport ndi ako makakuha po sa ngaun ng passport kaya natatagalan ako mag file ng application kasi may mali po sa marriage cert namen. so in your case po na evaluate naman po ng vo ung papers nyo kahit na po ung maiden name nyo pa po ang gamit nyo sa passport?

They don't really care here kung di
Mo pa gamit ang surname ng husband mo as long as u have the papers to prove na you're married to him..just like me..I haven't changed my surname since I came here 7 yrs ago..and now that I sponsored my husband,ok naman..:):) so don't worry..:):)
