sis sure yan mag redo ka ng medicals mo... pero ayos lang yan atleast alam natin na inaasikaso nila mahirap yun wala ka talagang idea about our applications... sana magka visa na tayo! Its More In The Philippines!

sana naman wag redo... sana bigyan na lang nila ng extension medicals natin, it's not our fault mabagal sila mgprocess completo naman papers na sinubmit natin. Kahit nga yung consultant sa toronto na pinuntahan namin at pinacheck yung app namin sabi nya very oraganized at straightforward daw ang app namin. Kaya di talaga namin akalain mgtatagal ng ganito. Pero sige na lang everything happens for a reason. In God's time

ganyan din nakalagay sa notes ng hubby ko. I think FC means Family Class. PRI-Primary Applicant.3a-Pending. Di ko lang gets ung De6Red. Anyway, kung papansinin nyo ung date kung kelan nagenerate yung info na yan, sa CPC-M pa nagenerate yun kung kelan nabuksan na nila ang file mo sa stage 1. I think yan yung mga info na nakuha nila from the Generic form....baka meron pang iba na mas nakakaalam at mas makakapagbigay linaw..based lang naman sa understanding ko ang mga nasabi ko.

from what i know GCMS na ang tawag sa CAIPS ngayon.. kaya malamang may mga changes sa codes.. or may mga new codes na ngayon na naidagdag na wala dyan sa list..

[redwine]

Hi guys...tanong ko lang, if it's ok to pay CAIPS thru a debit card? tnx

[sarsicola]

i also have a question. magkano ang service fee ng St.Raphael?

naconfuse kasi ako. sabi nila 1260 yung total ticket and i asked the CONVERSION RATE in peso para sa peso account ako magbabayad, they said its 53,298php. now, when they sent over the eticket, the total amount in peso stated is 52,178php. so i emailed them if they can clarify the discrepancy. sabi nila service nila yun. (which confused me kasi sabi nila 1260usd is EQUAL to 53,178php as per today's exchange rate) so i asked them, exactly how much in percent yung service fee nila. they havent replied pa.

i know 1200php might be small to some of you pero hindi lang kasi malinaw sa akin.

PS. malaking bagay sakin yung 1200 )

CAIPS/GCMS NOTES...

a) If you have a friend / relative in canada it would cost you just $5 and you will get that in around 30 days.

b) If you don't have a relative or friend in Canada then you can get it from websites and it would cost around $25-$40 and you will get in six to eight weeks..

Check this

a) If you have a relative / friend in Canada

As you have a relative / friend there it would cost you just $5. Its very easy. Your relative / friend will order this on your behalf and he will be the requester. It can be done by email and your relative / requester can send scan copies of everything. Your relative / friend will receive CAIPS / GCMS notes in his email.

First fill the following form but your relative / friend will sign it as he is the requester.

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/forms/IMM5563E.pdf

Then you will have to fill this consent form and sign yourself

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/forms/IMM5475E.pdf

Now according to latest IMM5563E form you can even pay fees online if you are not living in Canada and there is no need to fill any credit card form. Pay fees online, get receipt, fill it and then scan and attach with application. Its very easy. Go to section C of the following form then follow other links given below.

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/forms/IMM5563E.pdf  (See section C)

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/fees/index.asp

https://eservicesak.cic.gc.ca/epay/lineofbusiness.do

After payment take 2 copies of print out of receipt. Keep one copy for yourself and attach other with application.

Ask your relative to provide copy of his Canadian passport or PR card and copy of his recent bill or bank statement as a proof that he is currently living in Canada

Ask him to scan everything and send everything by email to

atip-aiprp        @        cic.gc.ca
