I have question toooooo.
It says on appendix a that each member should fill up his/her own forms. Doest it means i should provide them their own forms? i didn't photo copied the blank page before i filled it up :(
or one form is enough because they are only children's?

hi kaloka, just a question...

Did you receive your passport via snail mail or email? Pareho kasi tayo ng timeline pero di ko pa nareceive yung PPR. Appreciate your feedback. Thanks.

Hi Fireflyers, i received it through mail. It says that they received my application on January 17 and the date of the mail was jan 18. I got the mail Jan 27 afternoon. I am currently in Canada as visitor. Are you in the Philippines right now? i think its the mail delivery that causes delays… it says in the envelope "URGENT" i think that is why i got the mail in just 10 days. Don't worry for sure your PPR is on its way .

Thank you very much kaloka...you are such a great help.
By the way, what's in the name "kaloka"? hehehe

Pahabol po na tanong.

1. So, na received po ninyo ang letter diyan sa Canada?
2. May update po ba sa ECAS ninyo ngayon na PPR request ang status?

Salamat talaga kaloka. Somehow, I can relate with you because we have exactly the same timeline from filing and sponsorship DM. The only thing is you are in Canada, and I am in the Philippines.

God bless to you. I will pray for you too.

thank you po emrn :) question lang po. ibabalik ko pa po ba un original letter sa kanila (1st 2bond paper) or photocopy lang nun? tapos original Appendix A and passport po? TIA :)
Sorry late reply nope just a copy of the appendix A, that's actually my mistake I overlooked that I wasn't able to give them a copy of my ppr. Maybe that's the reason why my app is really taking longer. :( :'( :-[

Lol, i can't figure out what user name to use that i won't forget. I just thought "kaloka" is something that will work while your waiting for the processing :)

1. Yes, i received the PPR request here in Canada.
2. No updates on my ecas ever since. I always check twice a day to be honest.

I have questions too for you if you don't mind.
1. Is your husband a Filipino too?
2. Do you have kids?
3. how long have you been together before you got married?
4. DId you live together?

I've heard its actually fast if you are both filipino citizen and without kids.
and plus you have lots of proof that the relationship is genuine.
Feel free to ask questions i don't mind. I love to hear your story.

hi po.. PPR po ba iniintay mo or mail/email ng Approval nyo as sponsor? usually po 1month after ma DM ng sponsor mgpapadala ng PPR. so maybe Jan. 23 or Jan. 20+ kapapadala lang po nila ng letter nyo. snail mail lang po kasi gamit nila sa pagpapadala ng PPR kaya po matagal bago nyo mareceive un. Example: my sponsor was approved Dec.07, 2011 we received the confirmation thru email and about my PPR it was dated Jan. 5, 2012 and i only received it last Jan.28 thru snail mail.. almost 3weeks din po ung pinagintay ko.. so wait lang po kayo. dadating din po un :)
