hello redtag, my aor/ppr letter from CEM does Not contain the Appendix A form eventhough the instruction in the letter says submit " fully completed Appendix A (attached),... the truth is.. dun sa letter na dumating wala talagang appendix A form na kasama.

So as advised na rin ng mga kasama natin dito sa forum, pumunta ako sa CEM, stated my case, and ask a copy of the Appendix A form.
hi!...nareceive ko narin ang 1st letter ng embassy..which is they are asking the same thing NSO birth,AOM, PP and Appendix A..I got 3 pages here..then yung Appendix A ang pang 3rd page..baka hindi lng naisama ng officer ang appendix A form..hopefully bukas isesend ko na hinihingi nila..sana nman mag reply sila agad.. :(

Hi,

It's okay bec. you will choose which embassy you want your sponsorship to be process. I sponsored my wife and put Canadian Embassy in Manila to process the papers while she's still working in Saudi Arabia and she just went home when the CEM requested her passport. Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Kulilit ;D ;D ;D
Hi kulilit,
thank you atleast ngayon meron na pala ganun situation na u can process the application while your spouse is working sa ibang bansa , meron pa ako isang tanong hope you wont mind, madali ba naka pag medical yung asawa mo sa saudi kasi right now inaayos pa lang ng husband yung police clearance don medyo marami steps di pala madali makakuha ng clearance kaya tanong ko lang kung diba nahirapan magpamedical wife mo sa saudi. i really appreciate if you could response my question. Thank you again

Hello Filipinos and Filipinas! :D

Regarding the Police Clearance.

We are currently living in Boracay.

Is this the same Police Clearance that somebody would have to require in order to get a job. And are able to get at any police station?

On the CIC website it has a link to the NBI, and it says the closest NBI is in Iloilo which is a 5 hour bus ride from here...ugh!
So we're wondering if it must be NBI or the local police station here, and if there is a difference between those 2.

Also she is from Pangasinan. The NBI office in that province is in Dagupan. If we must go to the NBI, does it make a difference if we go to Iloilo or Dagupan or any other?

Oh and if anyone knows how much this will cost us that would be great to know also!

Thanks!
