Ayos lang kahit hindi mo e red ribbon yan. Pro mas mataas ang chance na ma approve ang visa mo if naka red ribbon ka. Meaning... di galing sa Quiapo yang diploma at TOR mo kaya kung pwd mo e red ribbon di e red ribbon mo. Pro pag di na pwd dahil baka kapos ka sa uras, di wag na. Di naman sa red ribbon lang titignan ng VO yan. Di nga natin alam kung ano tinitignan nya. Basta kung ano sa tingin mong mas maging kapanipaniwala ka sa VO ipakita mo. Patunayan mo sa kanila na karapat dapat ka sa Visa na yan.

Yung kakilala ng katrabaho ko sa Saudi. Yung work nila sa Dairy din, lahat ng documents nila ay peke. Pro yun nakalusot din naman. Kapanipaniwala kasi ehh.

@leextram

Makapaglabas lang ng konting sama ng loob sa mga VO dito sa pinas. Kase yung isa sa reason ng refusal ng kuya ko ay di raw related ang experienced nya dun sa work na inaplayan nya sa Canada, eh bat yung kuya namin na nandun na wala din naman experienced yun sa farm, tsaka the rest ng mga co worker nya dun wala din experienced pero nandun sila nagwowork. Ang pinagkaiba lang most of them kasama na yung kuya namin na nandun eh sa Taiwan nanggaling ang visa or doon naaprobahan ang visa. The VO should set same standards kahit sa pinas ka pa manggagaling. Eh ang sistema yata pag sa pinas ang alis eh kailangan dumaan sa butas ng karayom or kailangan salain talaga. Haay only in the Philippines.

@ cjjc23

Yes. Isasauli po lahat ng original documents. Yung case ko ay hindi na ako nagpa-red ribbon. Kasi may nabasa ako sa forum na hindi kasama yung original docs dun talaga kelangan ipa-red ribbon yung mga copies na isusubmit. Sabi nga ni parang leextream, mas mabilis ang verification pag may red ribbon. Parang yung ibang members ay napabilis ang parapprove nila dahil nakared ribbon sila.

@ bbv1021

Sa ibang bansa mabilis nga kumuha ng work permit at makaalis ng bansa nila. Dito sa Pilipinas malakas ang bureaucracy kaya ayun lahat dadaanan natin. Lahat din pinaghihinalaan nila dahil din sa tindi natin makagawa/kopya ng sarili nating dokumento.

@ cris.ronel

Direct hire ako. Hindi ako pinag POLO. Nabasa ko sa ibang thread parang mga caregivers lang yata ang pinagpo-POLO and yung mga nasa agency.

Sa mga Ka-Julyers ko, I have a question about the validity of the visa.

Mine was only 1 year but my LMO stated 2 years. But my wife (SOWP) and daughter (TRV) both have 2 years validity in their Visas.

Is this correct or will my work permit at the port of entry be affected?

Thanks!

Congrats!!!

Nakita ko yung post mo regarding PDOS. Nagpost ako sa Sept batch thread nung PDOS experience ko:

Cabalen said:
@ pareng leextream

January 27 flight ko. Nagresign ako sa work nung Jan 2 lang. E, 1 month notice, nileave ko yung last week ng January para makapunta agad ng Canada.

Tapos panaka-nakang leave papuntang POEA. 3rd time ko na bukas. Yung addendum kasi kelangan pa pirma sa employer.

1st day - Step 1: pre-assessment ng docs. Need daw to sign the addendum by the employer
2nd day - PDOS. Yung addendum di pa nasign ni employer
3rd day - Step 2: compliance docs (addendum) at payment

Sana ok na lahat bukas at makuha ko na yung exit clearance ko.
Cabalen said:
@ yangyang19

Thanks! :D

Yung first step po sa POEA ay pre-assessment ng docs. Ichecheck po nila yung laman ng contrata natin kung pasok ba sa criteria ng POEA. Kung may kulang dun may bibigay silang addendum. Form ito na may checklist ng mga dapat idagdag sa contract mo. Ilalagay nila ng XXX yung dapat i-comply ni employer.

Eto yung ilan items sa checklist:
Site of employment
Contract duration
Upgrading of salary to _________
Vacation Leave _________
Sick Leave __________
at marami pang iba

Yung aking po ay repatriation in case of death at unjust termination ay dapat akuin ni employer ang lahat ng gastos.

Papapirma lang kay employer. Scan copy ok na.

Kanina po bumalik ako sa POEA for third time. Nasend na ni emplyoyer yung signed addendum. Mabilis lang naman. Step 2 nko nagstart. Kumuha pala ako ng number sa lobby for Step 2.

Step2: for docs submission (PDOS certificate and addendum included with photocopy)
Tapos fill up ng SSS and OFW forms. Name will be called and submit OFW form.
Proceed to Window 2 for final assessment and encoding.
Proceed to Cashier. Payment: 6,425.88 Php. Yung OEC po ay mabibigay na din dito.
Proceed to SSS window and submit SSS form.

Mga 2 hours po tapos na ko. Just be there before 7am para mauna sa number. 8am po opening.

Goodluck po sa lahat!
Hope this helps. :D

Hello po. Bago ang lahat, CONGRATULATIONS po sa lahat ng mga may MR na, MUCH AWAITED VISA and sa mga susunod pa.

Hindi po aklo kasali sa JULY CEM applicants. I'm very new in this forum. But I just want to be enlightened po, specially sa mga may first-hand experience na. Eto po kasi isa sa mga nakita ko na thread na may pinaka-active na talakayan so dito po ako nag-post ng case ko.

I already have a (+) LMO and Job order from an employer sa AB- as restaurant supervisor for immediate deployment. These 2 documents were already sent to me as scanned copies via email. I have yet to file my application, target is before end of January 2013 so that will take at least 2 more weeks for me.

Here is my profile...

-female, 31 yo (married w/ 2 kids)
-college undergrad (i was in my last sem 4th year when I stopped sa BS Nursing)
-travelled extensively all over asia (several times in HK, China, Japan, Thailand, Macau) and south africa in 2001-2002 as tourist (never worked in those countries even if I had the chance then)
- co-writer for a broadsheet column for almost 3 years (2002-2005)
- worked as a call center agent for total of 2 years (2007-2008; 2009-2010 in between i gave birth to my 2nd child)
- worked as a restaurant manager for more than 1 year (dec 2010-march 2012)
- self-employed now, my husband and I are running an agri-business in the province (business permits and accounts though are all named after my husband)

My anxiety now lies on how CEM process visas. Here are several questions that I need to get enlightened upon:
1) SSS contibutions- Does CEM really check this? My SSS contribution history just started with my call center job. So SSS contribution history ko lang is from 2007-2008 and 2009-2010. Never pa ako nag-loan and never ko pa nagamit kahit sa maternity. Sa restaurant manager job ko, since the owner is my friend it was an arrangement between the 2 of us na wag na ako mag-SSS contribution para mas mataas sweldo ko (and now ko lang nakita repercussion). Wala din SSS sa business namin (hindi namin na-anticipate pareho ng husband ko yung need for SSS when he started the business).

2) Did any of you use a 3rd party representative to help you in the processing of your papers? May consultancy firm sa manila na nag-offer sa akin to help me sa processing and P28k singil nila. Malaking halaga din yun....

3) Based sa mga nabasa ko sa mga threads, mahirap ang processing dito Pilipinas. If I find an employment abroad (say in HongKong), is it more practical if I'll just file my application there? But the LMO though will expire by April 2013...

4) Do I need the original copies of the LMO and job offer/ employment contract from my employer in Canada?

I'd really, really appreciate any reply to these queries. Maraming salamat po at Mabuhay tayong lahat! :D
