I don't know what's the matter with you that everything I say you try to refute it. I'm not talking here without any reference nor experience. I don't get anything from replying in here but I was just trying to be of help. I was able to find good friends in this forum who became my friends here in canada for real. I love this forum that's why I keep coming back. Sa mga nasasagasaan ko, pasensya na.

Anyway, wish u luck. And to our fellow forumers who has questions addressed to me pls feel free to Private message me. God bless and goodluck guys.
Hi mrsh! Hi Joidiple Im sure our fellow applicants in this forum is grateful to the both of you and to everyone else sharing their experiences... we all have the same goal here - to help everyone here to the best that we can and the best that we can give here is our own experiences. Mrsh you may have misunderstood joidiple. Based on your time line you got your visa on 2011 so I suppose that's the last time you've been at the CEM. While joidiple was at the CEM just a few weeks ago. There might have been some few changes on CEM's security procedures that would make joidiple's CEM experience different from yours. Or more probably its really case-to-case-basis :) you know minsan maganda ang mood ni guard minsan suplado :mad: .... Im sure joidiple is not trying to refute you :)

Anyway thankyou again for sharing your experiences, at least our forum mates will have an idea on what to expect with coming to CEM, it may be possible but there is still a chance that it is not... It all depends on the applicant, if their case is worth trying or it is worth waiting for just a few more weeks. As for me I would take my chance we got DM since last June 2, and they asked me to submit passport size pictures twice already since then and still got no visa :( .. keeping my fingers crossed! ;D

yes thats what i mean. btw, yours is taking so very long talaga, did you contact your mp to know the status of your file? when we got the DM and three weeks already we have not receive any, kinontak namin mp and in two days nagreply sila ang sabi nagpadala daw ang cem ng sulat the week na nag-DM sa ecas so sa post office pala nagtagal yung sulat naresib namin one month na.maybe contact mp on monday na para maybe wensday malaman mo na kung ano ang nagpapatagal pa eh DM naman na. sabi ko nga nun mas mabuti pa yung hindi ka pa dm kc alam mo hindi pa tapos talaga, eh yan naman e tapos na ang processing. ang sabi pa ng MP, ipapadala na sana before the week na ung ecas e nag-update sa DM kaya naresib na sana ung visa bago pa man nag-DM sa ecas kaso daw no nearest courier sa lugar namin kaya sumulat na lng sila nung week na na-update ung ecas.

@ joidiple yup nkontact na namin ung MP namin the fist time is ung matagal dumating ung remed ko. then nung matagal nanaman ung visa naman nagemail ulit kmi sa MP nung June 20. later that day tumawag ang Cem to ask 2 pp size photos and that day din nasend ko n rin syaagad sa dropbox nila. June 30 sumagot ung MP sa email. May 30 pa daw kmi approved, on que for printing ung visa ko antay daw kmi 6 weeks.. :eek: well inassume ko lng na ung 6 weeks na un is what's left before kmi lumanpas ng processing time.....July 3 CEM emailed is still waiting for the said pictures!!!naman... kya ayunsend ulit ako thru lbc.... pag wala pa visa till wed.

Oo after niyang makuha ang VISA sa CEM pwede na syang mag attend ng counseling sa Tuesday, madali lang naman after nung counseling the same day punta lang sya sa likod bahay akyat sa hagdan tapos pila kung maraming tao magbabayad tapos ididikit na ang CFO sticker basta dala nya passport nya na may VISA na. Naka attend na kasi ako nito isa sa mga naging requirements ko sa DFA para mapalitan ang status at apelyido ko sa Passport yung ibinibigay na certificate dito sa counseling . Pero wala pa akong sticker balik nalang daw ako pag may visa na ang passport ko . Eto yung link para madala nya yung mga requirements bago pumunta dun sa counseling:

Requirements for Registration:

Original and photocopy of Passport;
Original and photocopy of visa;
Original and photocopy of Immigrant Data Summary for US bound/ Confirmation of Permanent Residence for Canada bound/ Certification of Eligibility (for Japan-bound);
Original CFO guidance and counseling certificate;
Duly completed emigrant registration form; and
Payment of the authorized registration fee.


You will pay a fee totaling PhP 650.00. The PhP 250.00 is paid as counseling fee at SMEF-COW or PRISM while the PhP 400.00 is for registration at the CFO.
