    Manila V.O. - Waiting for the Passport with the Visa

    Yes pwede ito... health Ministry will send your wife's medical surveillance paperwork sa Canadian address mo and may option doon to call the medical practitioner if there's a need to reschedule. Ok umalis pero keep track of all the mails sa canadian address mo para wala kang ma-miss.
