I think nasa chart na sya dba?...wala pa bang update sa e-cas nya sis?

Last week, nag medical received. But the status itself still says "application received" which worries me kasi we have been waiting for 7 months since pinasa nya yung complete application last november. My boyfriend's medical will expire next month, sana hindi na umabot na ipa re-medical sya kasi that would stress us EVEN MORE.

NOTES:

* passport that has maiden name on it can still be used as long as its not soon to expire and make sure it matches the information on
your application.
* The DMP will give you (original) copy 2 of the medical report that you need to include with your application. copy 1 will be sent by the
DMP to the appropriate medical office for processing.


REMINDERS: (DO'S AND DONT'S)

* inquiring about the status of your application before the standard processing time has elapsed will slow down the processing of your
application.
* for those who needs fingerprinting for fbi police certificate, better go to crame (investigation and crime laboratories) because they are
the one that's expert in finger printing and send atleast 2-3 copies of your fingerprint forms to avoid re-finger printing if it's not clear.
* make sure you have your AOM ready incase CEM asked for it.
* make sure you pay all the fess to avoid delay on processing.
* make sure to have your medical result on or before submitting your application.
* 9 recent photos submitted must be properly labeled at the back with the applicant's name, DOB and signature.
* make sure to print out the registration form and fill it out before going for CFO seminar to save time in line.
* for those who are going to CFO seminar make sure to be there early because they are on a first come first serve basis and they only
accomodate 60 people per day that would start at 10am from monday to friday.


NORMAL TIMELINES: processing times in months is 9 months but based on the previous applicants timelines this is how it goes.

* assessment of sponsor/sponsor get DM: within 42 days
* PP request/addt'l documents request: after a month from the date the sponsor got DM
* 2-4 months waiting time from the date of the pp sent before ecas changes
* ecas changes to in process and then DM after the said waiting time
* medical result received and DM usually comes few days after in process; but some will have in process for 2-4 months and gets DM;
some gets visa first before getting DM from in process status.


ECAS:

* Medical result received status will appear on ecas once or twice. If you submitted your medical result prior to your application, it will
appear on your ecas first before application received or during the first month of your application and then in just a few days it will be
removed on your ecas. if it again appeared on your ecas 2-4 months after your pp submission then you'll probably get DM within that
month or not later than the next month, if everything goes well.


ABOUT THE CFO SEMINAR:

* As Filipinos going abroad as fiancé(e)s, spouses or other partners of foreign nationals, you are required to attend the CFO's guidance
and counseling session in order to secure the Guidance and Counseling Certificate (GCC) and the CFO sticker.
* You also need this certificate to renew or apply for a new passport at the Department of Foreign Affairs
