SuperVisa from Manila - Applicants/Future Applicants

[windy1477]

sa cebu din nagpamedical ang mama ko yesterday August 3 pero dun kami sa nationwide health system.walk in lang sila and my mom finished the whole process for half a day.maaga lang siya nagpunta dun.P 4,100 lang ang full package niya.nag advice sila sa mama ko na huwag muna umuwi until lumabas ang results para pag me repeat testing eh madali lang siya makbalik.taga iligan city kami. sabi nung taga nationwide usually lalabas daw after 3 working days ang result.so we are hoping na ok lahat.

Hi Myza!

Thank you so much for the info, I appreciate it.. medyo nervous lang ako for my father's medical exam. They will go this coming Wednesday, Aug. 7, 2013. I hope everything will be okay. We are planning to have his medical at Nationwide too. Pero just in case na there will be a repeat of the any laboratories, I think they will just come back than to stay in Cebu for a few days. It will be more expensive. But I hope everything will be fine. Pray harder! I will include your Mama in my prayers. From where are you here in Canada?

Hi! Sa Cebu Doctor's ang mama ko nagpamedical kasi doon din ako nagmedical noon. Sabi nila maghintay daw kami nang 10-15 days kung ang immigration magrequest nang second medical. July 11 yong mother ko nagpamedical tapos noong pauwi na sila tinawagan siya nang secretary nang doctor na bumalik kasi di daw lear yong nakuha nila X-ray nya, ayaw daw nila magpass nang result sa embassy kung di clear, para daw di madelayed yong pasyente, so bumalik nanay ko sa July 15 na kasi nandoon na sya sa barko noong tumawag sila. Mga P4500-P6000 ang bayad, basta walang repeat testing. So ngayong over 10 days na, wala namang additional medical request, cguro ok na yon. Hintay nalang namin ang result nang application.

Hi Yolski!

Thank you so much for the info! My father will udergo his Medical exam this week too, probably on Wednesday. I think we will go to Nationwide Clinic, and I hope everything will be okay. I will pray for our parents so they can come and experience how we live here in Canada! Thank you so much for the reply, please update us on your Mama's progress! Good luck to us!

Manila to Winnipeg for Supervisa holder



Good day,

My mother will come to Canada with a supervisa which she's entitled to stay for 2 years, I would like to know if she can get a one way flight ticket from Manila to Winnipeg, Manitoba.

Thank you,

 

[Gary Goldshmidt]

Please post a reply to this I have client from Manila and they all complain they had to purchase a two way flight even though it can never be used. The max I was told an airfare can be used is within one year, my clients are planning to stay two years.

Let me know if the one way plan fare is sufficient for Citizenship and Immigration Canada.

Thanks

This is the philippine and canada immigration reply on my return ticket enquiry:

Dear Madam:

This refers to your enquiry.

Please be advised that we do not offer individualized counselling to applicants regarding purchase of plane tickets. It is up to the applicants with Supervisa to decide whether they will purchase return tickets or not. Please also be advised that Filipino nationals with Supervisa may be eligible for an extended authorized stay for a period of up to two years. However, only the Officer at the port of entry in Canada will have the authority to decide until when they can remain Canada.

We trust this information is of assistance.


Yours sincerely,

Subject: Round trip ticket for Super Visa holder

Dear Visa Officer,

I would like to know about the air Ticket for Super Visa Holder. As it is said, Super Visa is good up to 2 years. Airlines does not issue ticket that is good for 2 years, and as you know there is no refund or rebooking on the ticket if we get one good for 6 months or so.

The Philippine Immigration is asking a document to show at the Airport from Canadian Embassy stating that it is ok to not have a return ticket for Super Visa Holder.

I am so confuse what to do, I don't want to waste hard earned money to buy a return ticket that can't be refunded or rebookable.

Please enlighten me to this issue.


Sincerely Yours,

---------------------------
This is my email reply to Philippine Immigration:

Dear Ma’am,



Good day! If the Canadian embassy states that they do not require return tickets for super visa holders, kindly secure a written document from them. Your parents can present this to the airline and immigration counter officer so they can exempt them with such.

You can check with the Canadian embassy at www.manila-embassy.com/canada.html.



Thank you.

Dear Visa Officer,

Thank You for your reply. My parents are filipinos, this is their first time traveling abroad.
Canadian embassy does not require return ticket for Super Visa Holder, but the Philippine immigration requires a roundtrip ticket for tourist. I heard from Filipino Super Visa holder that the Philippine Immigration at the Philippine Airport asks for the return ticket, I don't understand why we have to waste money to buy a return ticket that we cannot use because it expires in 1 year.
Please enlighten me with this issue. I don't want my parents will be refuse to go out of the country because of this reason.

Thank you again.

Now looking for air fare..... I am getting one way ticket.

 

[Gary Goldshmidt]

Congratulations that was pretty quick. For online tickets just go online there are plenty of sites that sell airfare. If you want to save money but the airfare on Tuesday or Wednesday for whatever reason airfare is often cheaper on these days of the week. Keep in mind if you buy trip interruption and cancellation insurance from a Canadian insurance company they require the airfare be purchased in Canada.

Hi Myza!

How did you know that the medical result exam of your mother was submitted to the embassy? Did you call again Nationwide Cebu to know that they forwarded it already? or can we see it online? I tried checking online but it does not seemed to work.

Thank you for the info!
