Salamat sa lahat ng tulong!
goodluck din sa pdos bukas. Medyo onti lang tao pag friday pero medyo agahan mo padin to be sure. Mas ok kung complete na yung requirements pagpunta mo pati form para mabilis processing. Ngapala, nung nagpunta ako last week, meron ginawang registration for absentee voting. Nakalimutan ko itanong sa kanila saan at kelan ike-claim yung stub na binigay, wala din kasi sinabi, pakitanong na lang din and update us too. Thanks!
I totally agree with you. However, as you have mentioned, CEM requests passport early in the process, and some even as early as one- two weeks upon sponsorship approval/ file transfer.LucasJones said:
They WILL NOT delay your passport retrieval if you inquired. If they don't want to entertain your query, they will simply say check some other time. They don't operate as such that if you keep bugging them they will punish you by delaying your passport. I think that's a bit ludicrous. Don't assume that. You can inquire as much as you want and you will not be penalized for it. As long as it's within the time given by CEM. And the said 9 months is established within the acceptance of your application in its initial stages, not when passport is sent. If you note on your PPR letter, you'll see the number of days that they'll process your passport (45-60 days). If they go beyond that, you should be given an update. If not, due to the volume of their applications, you can ask for an update. They note the number of days on the letter because they have to. Why? Because its your Passport. Not just some document downloaded from their website. You own that legal identification. You chose not to get an update from CEM regarding your husbands passport after 90 days is your own prerogative. I say this and advise to people to get an update because I know what its like. I am a Filipino Canadian with a big space in my life without my other half. The anxiety.. depression... nerves.. that toys with your loved ones feelings while waiting is something else. An update is a temporary solution to see where and when that hope arrives. It's like waiting for an elevator and seeing what floor its on before getting to yours. This metaphoric description only explains what I know each and every applicant and Sponsor is going through. I'm not giving everyone their hopes to nothing but simply giving them a hope for something. CEM has a plethora of work on their hands and we are all merely a "CLIENT ID" to each of them when it boils down to it. I understand their capabilities. But the applicants are entitled to know as well the progress of their passports once its relayed to them, AFTER the said period of time. I'm not telling everyone to go out and call CEM or CIC, but simply giving advise to all to subject yourself to get an update when deem fit. Like I said, it's everyone's prerogative to wanting to get an update or not. But rest assured, no one works in a mafioso type of environment within the walls of the Canadian Embassy and will be punished for an update request. They can't delay the processing simply because their annoyed at the persistent request for an update. They don't have time for that nor is it a part of their job description to. They simply move on to the next "CLIENT ID".pelipeli said:

You can inquire as much as you want and you will not be penalized for it. - You're right, to each his own and I'm sure many will disgaree with this statement.LucasJones said:
