@dwade

sir,

di ko kabisado kung kelan na-submit ni wifey appication ko pero ito natatandaan ko...yung later part lng ang medyo alam ko... =)

aug 2010 - filled up application (habang nakabantay wife ko.tagal na kasi nya hinihingi early 2010 pa,inabutan na lang ako ng bakasyon nya..hehe)
sep 2010 - application submitted to cic-missssauga
oct 2010 - medical done.
dec 2010 - approve wife ko to sponsor me. application forwarded to manila
jan 05, 2011 - application received by manila embassy
jan 13, 2011 - request for passport, NSO advisory of marriage & appendix A. (Can't submit because I accepted an offer in UAE & my flight is Jan30th)
feb 1, 2011 - arrived in UAE. Planned to send my passport back to manila for embassy requirement but my employer needs it for my application for resience visa here in UAE.(delay again, the 45days due is counting)
feb 9, 2011 - ecas status : started processing your application (although di ko pa submit everything na hinihingi nila maybe waiting dun sa passport ko)
mar 2011 - received my passport with residence status here in UAE. but still can't send it to manila, still waiting for my emirates ID & labor card.
apr 2, 2011 - finally send my passport to manila after more than 45days due.hopefully they still accept it.
apr 11, 2011 - received an email for FINAL REQUEST. same letter I receive last january.Another 45days.Sakto,buti napadala ko na sa manila april 6 nadeliver sa embassy via LBC.
apr 30 - one month after I send my passport.don't know if immigration received my passport kasi wala naman sila acknowledgement. ecas status "In process".
may 1-15, 2011 - every week checking on ecas. still in process...worried already with my passport.
may 20, 2011 - ecas status: a decision has made on your application. the office will contact you concerning this decision.
may 21, 2011 - passport received with visa & all the docs I submitted.
may 29, 2011 - waiting for my passport arrival here in UAE next week. hopefully...

medyo detailed timeline but I hope I gave you an idea with regards to my application. Goodluck to all! =) Thank you
