Huh?...ang alam ko dito na sa Manila ang processing ng lahat ng mga applications natin once naforward na sa CEM manila. How will CEM staff be affected by the election? Ang alam ko affected is with regards to the changes in Immigration with regards to sham relationships magiging thorough ang processing.

What factors can slow down processing?

Here is a list of common factors that can slow the processing of your application.

• Incomplete or unsigned application forms
• Incorrect, incomplete address or failure to notify the CPC of a change of address
• Missing documents
• Unclear photocopies of documents
• Documents not accompanied by a certified English or French translation
• Investigation of sponsors by CIC
• Verification of information and documents provided (e.g., there may be lengthy procedures for background checks in the countries where the applicant or his or her family members have lived or need for a second interview for additional background screening)
• A medical condition that may require additional tests or consultations
• A criminal or security problem (e.g., failure to declare family members or criminal charges pending)
• Family situations such as impending divorce, custody or maintenance issues
• Completion of legal adoption
• Consultation is required with other offices in Canada and abroad

• Inquiring about the status of your application before the standard processing time has elapsed

• The applicant is not a permanent resident of the country in which he/she currently resides
• The applicant or his or her family members require an interview and resides in an area not regularly visited by immigration officials



Tama si mrs. vip...As long as nasa processing time pa it stated here don't bug about inquiring your application it will slows down processing. That's what the agency told us too never bug the immigration...we just need to wait. Cheers :D
ang sipag mo mag research :) and you're right "never bug the immigration" it will slows down processing :) i actually said that 100 times here lol
oh sana may maniwala na sakin haha!

Sa Wakas Natanggap ko na yung postal mail from CEM... ;D ;D ;D
Etong naka sulat;

"This refers to your application for permanent residence in Canada which was received at the Embassy of Canada in Manila on April 11, 2011."

May additional documents silang hinihingi
- Original Passport (buti na lang red coloured na yung passport ko)
- Appendix A form na kasama na pinadala nila.. different ito sa Appendix A na document checklist for immigrant.
- Appendix B Photo Specification.
- Personal history form na kasama na pinadala nila.


Question:
1. Bakit nanghihingi sila ulit ng immigrant photos eh nag submit na ako ng 9 photos kasama nung application? I recall yung 9 photos na pinadala ko sa application ay may sulat lahat sa likod ng name and b-day ko. Di kaya ito ang dahilan kaya they are asking ulit?

2. Ilang pieces ng photos ang kailingan i-submit ulit? Walang kasing nakalagay sa Appendix B. 9 photos pa rin ba?

3. About dun sa personal history na hiningi nila ulit, i think kulang yung information na nailagay ko sa IMM0008 Schedule 1/ Background Declaration form na kasama sa application na pinadala ko kaya nanghihingi ulit sila na updated history from 18years old ako up to present. Nailagay ko lang kasi is 18years old up to year 2000, I forgot na pwede palang mag add ng additional sheet of paper to complete my history details.

4. Pag nag request na ba ng passport ibig sabihin ba nito is approve na yung visa?

I don't know if where I'll post my query, but maybe here is okay.

My wife is in the process of sponsoring me but we are both staying in Thailand, now my questions are:

1. Does the medical exam be mailed together with the application?
2. Can I have my medical exam in Thailand?
3. Who will determine which embassy shall process our application? I want to be processed by the Manila Embassy, not the Singapore.
4. (Reserved for other questions..lol)

Please help me. All answers are appreciated.

Thank you guys!

@ filipina @ pinoyme @ jumanjix-- Salamat sa mga advise mo!!
1. nakalagay ba talaga dun na kailangan nila ng PHOTOS or nakita mo lang kase sa likod ng appendix A?
if meron sila ni request at naka sulat talaga dun then kailangan mo mag pass kung bakit sila nanghingi pwedeng nawala nila or kailangan nila we really don't know the reason bat sila nanghihingi ng additional doc kahit na pass na

2. im guessing na AKALA mo lang siguro na hiningan ka kase wala naman nakalagay kung ilan eh siguro kase nakita mo ung likod ng appendia A n may photo so akala mo hiningan ka i said nga kanina if wala naka lagay talaga dun na naka sulat mismo na nag request sila ng photo meaning wala STANDARD form ung Appendix A / Appendix B (see filipina signiture) pero kung meron nakasulat so mag pass ka na lang ng 9 tutal un naman talaga hinihinig nila

3. dapat 18 - present

4. NO still in process pa din sila kase nanghihingi pa sila ng additional doc nagsstart pa lang sila sa pag process, sa Philippines nauuna ang Passport i-irequest para tuloy tuloy na ung process satin so sagot dito NO pwede kase may hingin pa din sila sayo..

@ filipina @ pinoyme @ jumanjix-- Salamat sa mga advise mo!!


Back to back talaga ang appendix A & B...Kung nakalagay talaga na you need to submit photos then provide. Make sure na yung personal history mo ay walang gaps from 18 up to the present. Standard procedure ng CEM to ask for the PP and some addt'l docs that are lacking then the 9 month processing times begins :D
