Also, nag apply ako visitor visa noong mga nakalipas na taon para bisitahin ang then BF ko sa Canada. My then BF was my contact na nilagay ko sa application and he was supposed to accommodate me there. Nilagay namin na relationship namin is "Friend". That application was denied. My worry is isscrutinize pa kaya yun and maapektuhan kaya noon ang spousal sponsorship namin ngayon?

My husband told me not to worry about it because we have strong and solid proof of genuine relationship, but I just want more assurance.

Did anyone have a similar experience? Please share your tips. Thanks!

hi lady01
My boyfriend (now my husband) also applied for a tourist visa and was denied.
I was also his contact person, a "family friend. "
When it came time to sponsor him as my husband, there were no delays or problems with the application.
We indicated in the application that he was denied entry/visitors visa.
But we were together naman for 3.5yrs before we got married and we were able to prove our relationship was genuine.
I think thats the most important part- proving ur relationship is genuine...kaya dont worry:) just be patient :) God bless :)

hi sis..just wana share our story..wla dn kmi maxado chat conversations na naipadala though we had pero konti lg ung naisubmit cz we never thought that we would be needing it someday.. pix, remittance slips, travel tickets, invitation nung kasal, taz mga birthday and wedding cards lg mga naisubmit namen..anyways, i think telephone bills reflecting the calls made between yourself and your sponsor are better than phone cards cz base sa website ng cic >(phone cards which
do not identify the caller or the number called do not constitute credible evidence of contact and
should not be submitted)..God bless :)
ok po. thanks po sa info... DM na po ba keu?

Handwritten po ba yong application nyo or yong may barcoded na?

Jeremiah 29:11
New International Version (NIV)
11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.


This verse keeps me hopeful, that everything is according to His plan, whenever I lose hope I just remind myself of this verse which was given to me by a friend who already got his visa it took him almost 2 years but his application is different (FSW). But he gave me this verse to remind me that everything is according to God's plan.
love this passage..i always say this everytime i pray..GOd is good!

Sa ecas nakalagay kung kelan na-receive ng CPC-M ang application ko.

CEM sent me a letter through our designated representative that they have received my application and a file has been created with the application number.

At what stage are you now anyway?

Hello everyone!

I'm happy for us, remaining applicants. Finally, nagkaron na rin ng pagbabago ang ecas. Ilang months/weeks din tayong halos mabaliw sa kakaisip at kakahintay kung ano na bang nangyayari sa applications natin. Now we know that our apps are being processed na. After magkaron ng address ang ecas ng hubby ko, sobrang naexcite na ako ng todo at sana tuloy tuloy na to. Uulan na ng visa this month para sa ating mga remaining applicants of 2011!!!! Let's claim it! :)


Dada :)

Thanks, Duday! Appreciate your advice. You have a fast timeline, good for you! Hope ours will be as quick. :)
