Hi. Sabi mo nag expire na medical mo. Wala kabang balak na magremed? My batchmate ako dati expired na yung medical. Tapos hindi pa sya tinatawagan ng embassy ni-redo na nya.naka save sya ng time kasi after the remed diretso from the clinic to the embassy yung result.

Tapos biglang tumawag ang embassy sakanya na expired na medical nya. Buti nalang natapos na nya agad kaya nakabawas ng oras.

So pwede na pala ako mag redo ng medical ko.. kahit wala pang letter from the embassy? And yun Medical ko diretso automatically sa CEM?

Wow Congrats!!!

it gives me hope cuz my wife passport got received on Apr 9 at the embassy, just before your ppr got received also. But at the same time, my wife's application ecas status still 'application received', it's still not showing 'in process' :(

Hi ludovick i sure do feel and understand the frustrations your going through. This was one of the hardest processes i have ever had to go through and it sure changed my views of immigration and the sacrifices people must do just to come to canada. I really wish the process was more open for us to see what stage of our application they are working on and updated weekly with real updates, not leaving us guessing and waiting for months.

I sooooo hate the feeling of someone else being in control of my families future and it was very hard for me to be able to swallow my pride and let some government worker (that our taxes pay their wages), tell me if my wife and partner of 4 years could live with me. The government is supposed to be working for us, its citizens not making all these delays and problems and heartaches. I love Canada and its a wonderful country that i will always be proud of, but there sure is some improvement to be made with this immigration system we have.

I understand we need strict immigration but when all we really have to prove for a spousal visa is genuine relationship, no medical problems and no criminal history than there is absolutely no way it should take this long.

What kept me going was reading how the manila office has a 93% approval rating, and knowing my wife was the most important part of my life and i would do anything or wait any amount of time for us to be together.

I am sure you and most others feel the same of your own spouses and my hat goes off to everyone having to go through this process for their loved ones. I truly wish you and all others a fast quick processing time to be reunited with your families.

PLease help! I'm confused.

I got my PPr and additional doc requirements:
- fully completed Appendix A (attached) for you and each of your family members, whether accompanying you to Canada or not. Passport details are not required for any family member who is not accompanying you to Canada. (each person should complete his/her own form.)
- Complete history of residential addresses from Dec 2011 to present. (see attached form)

They sent me an attachment for the history of address but none for Appendix A. Do i have to fill out and submit immigration forms again from the document checklist of Appendix A?

Any input?
Thanks!
