For PINOYS: Spousal open work permit to canada.. Share tayo

[jeckay]

ako parang i remember yun JAL staff asked me "mam do you have an OEC?", so sabi ko " no, it's not required for me...i'm under spousal visa.", or pwede nga nila insist na WOrk permit yun, just tell them na dependent yun WP mo sa husband's WP.just be ready w/ your husband's OEC, EMPLYMENT CONTRACT, LMO, etc..  goodluck...prepare your winter jackets na kasi it's getting COLD here na...

Kung may kids ka bring their "baby book" or if you don't have them better get  their immunization record from the pedia para complete na.
5 copies of the photos,  xerox copies of the passport. also, bring a pen 'coz you.re going to fill-up forms there.  yun lang naman.
the earlier the better kse madami talaga as in "pamilyahan". Good luck, and remember 7 days after your menstruation para no trace of blood
ako nga after 10 days na para sure tlga. Drink a lot of water.

hello sis lapit mo lng pala samen sa erinwoods lng ako 1 bus ride lang actually dun sa walmart kame nggrogrocery..  kala ko nakalimutan mo na kame dito sa forum tagal mo din bago ka ngpost.. minsan naman kita tayo..

Hello sa inyong lahat! I'm glad to have learned of this forum. My hubby is in Canada but non-skilled.  But he got a recent LMO and just applied for work permit under NOC B - skilled category now.  Once he received his Work Permit as skilled, I understand that me as his wife and our son can apply for open work permit and study permit, respectively.  I just have few things in mind, hopefully some can give me insights, faith you, ailooney, enyale and the rest, I will appreciate if you could give answers to my questions: Thank you so much in advance.

1. Pag spousal open work permit ba and study permit ng son, need pa ang proof of funds ko or ng hubby ko?  If then, any idea as to the safe amount? medyo dun kmi magfail if ever requirement kasi ang dami gastusin, very thin ang ipon.

2. Pag nareceive nya work permit and nagstart sa new employer as skilled, kahit ba mga 1 week palang sya dun pwede na kami magapply mag-ina?

3. Pag Open Work Permit ba ang inapply at Study Permit ng bata, 100% na maaprove basta nameet yung requirements na NOC A, B, or O yung asawa at more than 6 months yung contract?  Any grounds for denial?

4. Sbi ng friends ng hubby ko dun, nagapply daw ang asawa nila ng Visit Visa and NOT open work permit kc mas naaaprub daw at mas mabilis kasi less than a month lang.  Two types daw kc ang visit visa, isa as tourist at isa as spouse ng skilled kc mas less ang requirements ng huli, is that true?

5.  Is it also true na libre ang pagaaral dun ng bata especially pre-school?  khit hindi PR? Para po mapaghandaan.

Sorry po kung marami akong tanong.  Alam ko po marami sa inyo ang napagdaanan na ang ganito and like you, pag nakarating na po kmi dyan, un experience naman po namin ang isheshare at itutulong sa iba.  God is good...we are all His instruments to other people. 

Salamat sa lahat and good luck....

1. in my case meron ako pinass na proof of funds bank account ko sa pinas tapos si hubby din pinadala din nya bank statement nya at bank cert in the last  6months.. pero i think what is very important ay yung kay hubby

2. yap pwede n kayo magapply you need a copy of his work permit kasama nung application nyo pascan nyo nlng tapos print mo nlng nun

3. so far wala pa naman ako nakilala na nadeny lahat naman ng asa forum nakakaalis naman pero depende pa rin yun sa visa officer kung ano reason nya if ever deny


4. i applied as visit visa before ako ngappply ng spousal open work permit.. nadeny ako tama nga 26 days lng may resulta na sa tourist visa kaso kailangan mo malaki proof of funds, assets, stable job or business para iprove mo na babalik kapa sa pilipinas.. tsaka pagdating mo dito nun hindi ka rin makakapagwork kasi wala ka SIN number unless bigyan ka ng LMO ng employer mo na andito..

5.  Is it also true na libre ang pagaaral dun ng bata especially pre-school?  khit hindi PR? Para po mapaghandaan.
yes libre po ang schooling dito pero meron din yta minimal fees kahit konte pero not as expensive sa philippines


youre very welcome

 @ enyale_08 :  Maraming maraming salamat po sa reply mo. It will be of help lalo't pinaghahandaan palang namin. Kayong mga nandyan na ang nagiging inspiration namin para mag pursue.  Sana po iguide nyo kami all throughout the process.

By the way, do you think kelangan ng proof of funds ni hubby? mga how much kaya ang minimum? Meron kaya sa forum na naapprove ng walang proof of funds or yun kahit minimal lang considering WORK permit naman? hope meron po....

Thank you so much and God bless...

[enyale_08]

yap kailangan ng proof of funds ni hubby cguro kahit mga 5000 cad siguro pwede na.. kasi need nyo lng naman prove na kaya kayo suportahan ni hubby dito pagdating nyo kasi wala kapa work diba.. lalo na may anak kayo..

san kb punta sa canada what province?

Hi! hindi ko alam kung may required proof of funds lalo na kung may anak. Sa case namin sabi ng consultant namin at least 2k sa account ni hubby. pero may laman din yung BPI account ko noon.

2. Pag nareceive nya work permit and nagstart sa new employer as skilled, kahit ba mga 1 week palang sya dun pwede na kami magapply mag-ina?

Yes, i think so. Mas maganda nga yun eh para mas madaming time pa before ma-expire yung work permit while in the process ang application.

3. Pag Open Work Permit ba ang inapply at Study Permit ng bata, 100% na maaprove basta nameet yung requirements na NOC A, B, or O yung asawa at more than 6 months yung contract?  Any grounds for denial?
We can't really say. It all is in the hands of the visa officer. Hindi ko din alam exactly how they determine the ties of the spouse and kids to their country of origin. Meron kasi akong nababasa na nadedeny pero ibang lahi. Lagi namang nagttravel ang asawa and bumabalik naman sa country pero dineny. Pero so far sa forum natin wala pa akong kilalang na-deny.


4. Sbi ng friends ng hubby ko dun, nagapply daw ang asawa nila ng Visit Visa and NOT open work permit kc mas naaaprub daw at mas mabilis kasi less than a month lang.  Two types daw kc ang visit visa, isa as tourist at isa as spouse ng skilled kc mas less ang requirements ng huli, is that true?

Pero bakit ka pa magtotourist kung kelangan mong umuwi agad kapag ganun? Wala din namang assurance na ma-approve agad yung visit na visa. Mas recommended ko ang SPousal. Because yun talaga ang dapat. Yung stay mo will depend on your husband's work permit expiry. Hindi ako familiar na may visit visa na spousal. Nagbabasa din naman ako ng site ng embassy pero iisa lang ang alam ko... Tourist Visa. Baka naman yung sinasabi nilang visit visa ng spouse ng skilled is itong spousal work permit. I don't think accurate yung sinasabi nila. hehe. nakakaconfuse sya.

5.  Is it also true na libre ang pagaaral dun ng bata especially pre-school?  khit hindi PR? Para po mapaghandaan.
Hindi ako sure dito kasi wala akong kids. Pero you could ask ate Delta (hindi ko alam true name ni ate) coz she has kids.
