Hello po sa lahat,

newbie here... for Mrs.JM, darating din po yun. almost same situation here with my wife. nag-woworry na sya kasi wala pa response from embassy. ako naman, nagwoworry dahil sa passport ko. I sent my passport to manila two months ago as per request from the embassy(but not sure if they received it since wala naman sila acknowledgement). and being without a passport from another country might give me trouble. then, last May 25th after I had an argument with my wife over the phone...blah..blah..blah..I decided to check on my ecas status then I saw "Decision Made" comment on it.Which I cannot believe it, because for the past two months of checking it was always "In process".The following day, my sister text me that they received my passport(with visa) & documents. I will just wait for my passport here in UAE and will plan when to get there.But... I have a question, can I go directly from here or should I go back to the philippines & go from there?

Thank you...

hi nhojq! congrats for getting DM..:) visa na lang and you're good to go! i think someone already answered you yes, you can go from there. i have the same question before, kasi i am planning na sa u.s ko na antayin yun visa but then naisip ko they will ask for my passport so wala ako gagamitin..hehe.kaya i have to wait here in pi. God bless! :)

I don't know what to do.. we never emailed them or call them.. but i asked my wife one week ago to fax the letter i made to CEM for follow up.. but that's it.. and stilll nothing happend after that.. we don't know what will happen next.. but the truth is im tired of waiting.. and my double job is very exhausting.. but i still go on.. ang hirap.. Happy ang lahat for you.. sana maging ok na ung inyo at mrcve mo n visa mo.. so you could come here and enjoy the weather.. as for me.. i'll wait. as usual.. sana matapos na ang lahat ng to..

@ miss_ian

yeah i feel for you..:( i dont know exactly what to say, cause i know nothing will really make you feel good at this point in time. but i will pray that your wife's visa is coming next..soon! just think of any good reason why things are happening this way..and just look forward to being with your wife soon! always believe in whats inevitable. remember, everything passes.. and you'll definitely soon be out of this miserable waiting time. keep up your faith. remember you have that power of the mind to attract positive things that will manifest in your life in any given time. ~ i suggest don't email/call/fax them again..because according to the guidelines of cic, that is one reason for processing be delayed. meron pa nga nagsabi na madedelay ang processing ng another 2 months after the attempt of contacting them and then i realized i emailed them 2 months ago before getting DM. :( yes it's sad..and i dont know the reason behind it. and there's nothing we can do besides praying, hoping and waiting..for sure naman bago nila iprocess yun batch february, check muna nila kung meron pa natira sa previous months. maybe they are now working on your application.
