After 5 years of waiting, I got my MR last March 12, 2018. So sobrang excited ko na isubmit passport ko sa VAC. Tapos ayaw ibigay sakin ng employer ko passport ko (it was with them sabi for "safety purposes" it was my 1st time to work abroad -Middle East- so mang mang pa ako). Mag abscond daw kasi ako. It was so traumatic to my part kasi I've been praying for this for a very long time. But God is good and LVO was very understanding that they gave me another 30days extension so I can resign properly to my work. They even transferred my submission to MVO per my request kasi mas convinient sakin yon. Lesson learned, at against the Law naman talaga gusto ko ilaban kaya lang nag hahabol ako ng oras kaya nakipag settle nalang ako. I'll be wiser next time lalo na I'll be going to Canada soon. God is good!
