ask ko lng po...ilang days po bgo nagrespond ung sa CEM sa email nio after ng confirmation nila sa ineemail niong info???

hope u reply po..tnx
PR po application nyo diba? And info lang po yung hiningi sayo. So that might mean they're not required to email you again or respond dun sa email mo. kasi acknowledged na nila na natanggap nila email mo. Sa case ko kasi follow-up yung purpose ko kaya nagreply sila na on queue yung papers ko for review. We can't really answer you about that kasi we have different applications and all they needed were information from you. Wait nalang po. :)

hi there!

Is any of you applied from Europe, like Norway? Under the live in caregiver program? pls reply, thank you
Hi, sorry. All of us here have our spouse in Canada and none of them are under the Live-in Caregiver Program. Oh, Denissed's husband is a caregiver and she asked CEM if she's eligible for the Spousal Open Work Permit. Unfortunately, they said NO.

hi milleth,
with regards sa interview ko,meron lang sila na need ma clear sa application form ko,pati na rin sa mga entries sa passport ko,sa case ko kse, nag travel ako sa asia after ko umalis sa New Zealand,medyo di yata nagustuhan ng VO ang ginawa kong backpacking/road trip, parang waste of time and money ang comment nya,....

at oo,...straight to the point ang VO,masungit,mataray and very strict,...pero nahalata ko na need ko lang magsabi ng totoo,di dapat magsinungaling,...just be your true self and dont tell any lies eto yung advice dito sa forum,,..pero in the end ng interview malalaman mo na may puso pala sila at mabait,..gulatan lang siguro ika nga,......and after 15 days dumating na visa ko.

dont worry, kung thru telephone call lang ang need ng VO,konting information lang kailangan nya, baka may maling entry lang sa forms or may kulang na document,kse po kung denied/rejected sya,...wala na yun call .......at kung inaalala mo ang date of closing ng pilot project,..sa pag submit pa lang ng application,..ibabalik na nila agad yun dahil di aabot sa july 31 at di na sya hahayaan pa na magpa medical.

malalampasan mo din yan,...ganyan din ako dati, di ako maka tulog,....pero thru prayers,...na calma ang kalooban ko,..

goodluck po,...ibibigay sayo yan ,.....dont worry,...eto po Matthew 6:25-34

rom
Thank you for the encouragement. Pero bakit kaya di na uli tumawag yung canadian officer sa cellphone ng anak ko?

HAS AN OPEN WORK PERMIT BUT WANTS TO GO BACK HOME
« on: March 22, 2012, 09:38:49 am »
Quote Modify Remove
Good day! My original entry here was as a Live-in Caregiver. I currently have an open work permit and my permanent residence application is still in process. My dilemma is, I needed to go home to The Philippines because I have to sort out custody issue concerning my kids..I have called the CIC thru their call centre, and said that I can go home and apply for a TRV but it's not a guarantee if I will be able to come back in Canada eventhough assuming I was granted a Visa..I am planning to apply for TRV (single or multiple?) in Buffalo, NY by mailing my application before leaving Canada. Is it possible that assuming I have the Visa, Open work permit and valid passport..that I will still be denied of re-entering here in Canada at the border? Because I do believe that if I was to go home, I would be able to iron things out regarding my family issues in The Philippines and not losing my PR application here..Pls help..thanks a lot! God bless :)
