Hi i am under family stream.Im from the philippines

[joji]

hi Any body can help me?

I just receive our certificate of nomination, but since the new procedure in applying PR is now in Nova scotia, they are also requiring that the payment should be done in Canadian dollar. So any suggestions on how I can obtain a bank draft or certified check in Canadian dollar, coz I guess all of the banks here in Philippines do not have Canadian account, just US dollar.

Hi friends,

I applied for Manitoba Provincial Nomination in the first week of May 2011 and submitted additional documents in July end.   Nothing has so far been heard from them till date.   Is there anybody who has submitted application during this period and still awaiting reply from them?    Please share.

Hi there,

If u having trouble with draft, u can submit the application at the visa office in manila, as they will continue accepting the application till march. see this link....   http://www.immigratemanitoba.com/prepare-to-move/apply-for-visa/


CIC simplifies visa application procedures

CIC changed, effective December 1, how it processes permanent resident applications, and introduced credit card payment and other changes to make the process easier for applicants.
 
The changes are explained in detail at CIC.

CIC will continue to accept applications under the previous system until March 31. However, Manitoba nominees are strongly encouraged to submit their permanent resident visa applications under CIC's new system, in which completed forms and payment must be submitted by mail or courier to a centralized intake office.

Congratulations to those who have good news!  It is currently -28 degrees here, with windchill it is -39 degrees as i write this comment.. I am here in winnipeg.. The weather can be brutal, but with the right clothing you'll be fine.. If you'll be driving a car, cold is almost neglible, aside from the trouble of scraping snow off your car before you coud use it..  Hope to see  everyone here soon..


I hope someone can help me here though with my question.  Because my sisters are sponsoring our friend.. I just have a clarification... here it goes:  The application that has to be sent to CIO, Sydney, should it include proof of funds?  For some reason, I am not seeing it in the checklist.  And I have read somewhere that you are not supposed to include documents that are not requested, for it may result to the return of the application or worst, rejection.. Kindly advise please for those who have recently submitted their documents to CIO Sydney and were finally cleared by encashing check or charging credit card.. Thanks so much..

Hi There,

Woa    its really cold there. nyways how r job opportunities there???

 U r right, in the new checklist proof of funds is not mentioned. But while sending the file i sent the proof of funds. Somebody advised me its better to include the proof of funds.  "Something extra is always better".  n dont worry they cant "reject" ur case just because u provided the proof of funds.

It is also good to send it as if they ask it again it will waste the time required to process d application. this is an advise provided to me by my brother in law who is an immigration lawyer in winnipeg. 

Regards

[Pinoy2manitoba]

ok thanks for that advice.  For the "copy" of documents, did you just send photocopies and not notarized ones?  Before kasi when they want something notarized they'll say "notarized copies" pag hindi naman, "copies" lang.


It is a whole lot easier to find a job here than in ontario and vancouver.. those friends of mine, who migrated here in canada na kasabayan ko lang have lost their jobs.  But here in winnipeg, God is good, dami naman opportunity.. for some people it takes months, pero meron at meron naman na blessing na dadating.. chaga lang talaga mag send ng application..

hi if we submit in the manila office do we use the old forms? like MAPP originals etc? or the new forms?

[ejd622]

which is faster in terms of processing? should i submit in Sydney or here in Manila?

[ejd622]

  friends, i need your advice.. I have a problem

The application packet to be sent to Sydney has the Supplementary Your Travels From...

the thing is my relative (whose in canada and who filled up our forms) did not place our travels  in the Background Declaration Question 11 Personal History (which we submitted in manitoba for the MPNP). 

Now should I declare in the Supplementary Your Travels from that I've been outside the country before?

My relative is insisting that i not fill it up or simply check did not travel... but im scared that it will be tantamount to omission thus cause for denial...

should I place my travels anyway? wouldnt it conflict with the background declaration copy i sent for the MPNP?

Do not omit details or lie, it can come back and bite you.
