Our cover letter was from our consultant pero simple lang naman... na since we were bf/gf we were apart and he came back to marry me tapos ngayon we want to be together na tapos I understand that I can only stay according to the duration of my husband's work permit. Tapos kung ano laman ng mga documents. Yun lang. :D

hello again... help mga sis... hmm mukhang may problem po ata kami sa docs ni hubby. may discrepancy kc ung hourly rate na nasa LMO at contract nya compared sa nasa paycheck (sad to say mas mababa ung nasa paycheck). would it cause our application for SOWP & study permit to be denied kung ganun?

Sis, medyo late ka na din kasi nag medical pero nakakapagtaka 4 wks inabot halos yung medical results mo. Baka madaming applicante kaya mahaba ang waiting period mo. Ilang yrs na kayong kasal? Kasi after ng medical ko pinadalhan pa ako ng questionnaire. Pero yung iba dito nareceive na yung questionnaire right after the AOR letter.

Don't worry. ako ang pinakamatagal na naghintay dito hehehe... 4.5 months ako. Usually 2-2.5months ang processing. give it 3 more wks after your medical results.

sis, ok lang yan as long as nag apply ka na may 6 months pa ang WP ng hubby mo... pwede ka ma-approve. Kahit one month left nalang sa WP ng hubby mo makakapunta ka pa din. :D Ako nga June 8 ako dumating dito Nov 2 expiry ng WP ng asawa ko.

Sa Calgary ako, sis. Wag ka masyado mag worry. Isipin mo nalang wala nang tatagal pa sa timeline ko. hahaha. ;D Kaya naging matagal yung sayo kasi after mo magpasa Aug ka pa nakapag medical tapos Sept pa results. Ako kasi January 17 ako nagpasa tapos Feb 12 nakapag medical tapos Feb 24 pinadalhan ako ng questionnaire. So malamang wala na hihingin sayo. Approval na ang sunod. Wait lang and pray. :) God bless!

Hi guys, pwede po mag-ask, this early kasi may naencounter na kami problem...

Required po ba LMO sa list of requirements na isasubmit sa CEM? Kasi we emailed the immigration consultant tapped by my husband's new employer, requesting for a copy of the positive LMO for our file and as needed for application of SOWP, and here's part of the reply:

"For your LMO, except your contract, we aren’t allowed to send you the copy [for employer information]."

But I have checked the DOCUMENT CHECKLIST of CEM for Work Permit app outside Canada, and I saw this particular requirement: "Job offer letter or contract from prospective employer and the file number provided by the HRSDC to locate the LMO. Your employer should be able to provide you with this file identifier."

Guys, please help me interpret, since sa doc checklist eh file or confirmation number lang, so kahit walang LMO copy? Kc I understand my recent Privacy Act na di na nagaappear ang name ng Temporary Foreign Worker sa LMO.. Baka kasi makulitan samin un immigration consultant pag nagrequest padin kmi. What do you think guys? Thanks in advance..
