thanks for sharing adelosreyes. .
grabe pala pinagdaanan mo din sa medical..
sweet victory pala yang 3rd line sa yo..
dahil jan..+1 sayo ;)

kapag hi blood pala, dami rin tests na pinapagawa?
kelangan pala kalma lang..hehe..
saka kelangan talaga magpagaling muna sa mga ubo at sipon..mahirap na paulitin..

Lord please heal us from our sickness and give us healthy bodies..so we can serve You more..
Hello Eds Wifey! Salamat sa +1 hehehe. Ikaw ata first time nagbigay? Lol...

Yes, pag may history or dun mismo nakita sa results nila e.g. diabetic/high sugar or high BP/hypertension, automatic may Specialist Referral forms ibibigay yung family doctor. Di puwede ang GP doctors, very specific sa sakit mo talaga, kunyare hypertension kelangan sa Cardiologist at kung diabetic, sa isang Endocrinologist naman. Nakakatawa nga e kasi same findings lang naman sila like in the case of my hubby with history of both. So ginawa ko, photocopied 2x yung results ng blood tests and attached dun sa parehong forms for Cardio and Endo. Pero thankful kami kasi clear naman ang x-rays, sinabi agad sa receptionist.

Hay true, kaka stress yung binigay na 7 days deadline kasi 2-3x a week lang naman ang doctors usually and between the required tests, pabalik balik talaga kami sa hospital. Yung 2D echo ko nga pina schedule ko ng 9PM sa St. Luke's BGC...blockbuster pala dun sa pila! Otherwise, after 1 week na ang schedule ko if gusto ko daytime kaso di aabot sa 7 days. So ayun, kahit pagod sa work, derecho sa hospital for the test. Tapos yung medical clearance kelangan typewritten, yung doctor ko as in walang PC sa clinic, binigyan lang ako ng blank RX paper at ako na nag type ... katawa talaga!

Kung may HMO kayo, puwede siguro pa general check-up para in case ready kayo sa magiging results ng test and do the necessary e.g. take medications na.

Praying for your successful medical tests :)

Hi ayanami,

Thanks a lot for the detailed info..
1) Ask ko lang regarding yung pagkuha ng NBI form sa Phil embassy, walk in lang any day anytime punta dun at kukuha nitong form, wlang bayad? since kami dalawa ni misis kelangan, pwede ba na ako lang punta at kukuha ng dalawa forms?

2) sa cantonment naman, any day din mag walk-in pra magpa fingerprint.. and anu po ssabihin sa kanila for the purpose?

3) Balik uli sa Phil embassy to get the stamp seal & payment, pareho din walk-in lang? ehheh & makukuha din sya on d same day diba?

Sensya sa mga tanong.. just would like to clarify kasi we've decided to get it as early as now while waiting for MR. Parang expected na namin hihingan kami ulit.

Thanks again sis ;D
1- Yes, walk-in lang anytime just to get the form. No need to set an appointent. libre ung forms. available na sya sa may reception sa gate. just ask for the nbi form for fingerprinting at cantonment. pero 1 form per person lng. so you will need to bring your wife along.

2- Sa Cantonment, walk-in din lang pero only within 2-5pm or was that 2-4pm? Cant remember. Just go to the counter and tell them you would like to have your fingerprints done for NBI clearance. They are familiar with the process, so they understand what you mean by it.

3- After Cantonment, run back to Phil Embassy with the form. Yes walk in din. basta fill up the fingerprint form and sign. you will need to be ready with your id picture. kahit isa nalang sa inyo ang pumunta dito para mag asikaso, as long na na-sign ni misis yung form. and yes, within the same day makukuha mo na rin.

Its a good idea to start getting your NBI clearances now. para pag dating ng MR, wala ng kailangan asikasuhin pa sa pinas. Ako, still waiting for my NBI Clearance to reach Singapore. Nadelay ang lahat because of this. Good luck to all!! :)

Okay, for the benefit of all. I will share my personal experience on the interview. Inisip ko na at inaalala ang iba pang mga tinanong (not sure kung may nakalimutan pa ako antagal na kasi)

Here are some of the questions:

1. Why did you cancel your representative? (because i cancelled mine last Jan)
2. What made you decide to cancel it?
3. How did you learn about the consultancy firm?
4. Is it your first time to apply?
5. Why on a different NOC? (kasi I told my VO that I applied under NOC1112 in 2013)
6. Did you just work out your JD just to qualify on your current NOC?
About my bank certificate
7. What kind of savings account is it? ( kasi in my bank cert says EWomen Savings)
8. How does it differ from regular savings account?
9. How much is the interest?
About POF/Business Etc
10. Tell me the source/history of your fund. (so nagkuwento ako. tip lang, try to organize your thoughts by writing it on paper then memorize mo nalang. At least alam mo na pano paikut ikutin ang kwento mo)
11. If you used your POF for business, does it mean it is not really intended for pof? (sabi ko kasi ginamit for business for a while kasi nag cap na last yr at hinde kami nakaabot)
12. Why our business doesn't have an ITR? (inexplain ko ang kaibahan ng municipal permit at national permit)
13. What are the taxes that you paid for your business? (syempre business tax, hehe)
About relative
14. How are you related?
15. For how long they have been in Canada? What is the work of your relative?
16. Do you think they will accommodate or help you? (parang gustong sabihin are they capable?yes lang ng yes....)
17. Where would you live?
18. Does your relative give you money for this purpose? (syempre hinde kasi baka sabihin sa relative galing ang POF mo)
About your plans/work etc
19. Do you think you will be able to get a job easily? (yes uli...)
20. So what are you doing right now? (parang are you starting to look for a job....yes uli)
21. Tell me about your work. (about your profession na...)

So yun po...At the end of the interview, you will immediately know if you pass the interview or not because they will tell you ‘Okay, we will get some your identification documents for further processing blah, blah...'

May Canadian at Filipino na nagiinterview, sakin pinoy. Yung nauna sa akin na FSW rin inabot ng almost one hour, ako mga 45mins din.
Para sa mga for interview, goodluck. Just relax and be confident (parang tunay dba ;D pero sa totoo lang nastress din ako prior to actual interview but it won't help at dapat tatagan ang loob).

o sya, Goodluck to us. wala na akong utang ha. ;D
Thank you for sharing :)

Hi Guys,

I received my request to submit my passport today from CIC. They mentioned I have 30 days to submit. I am currently working in Australia, however I made my application to NEW Delhi office.

I have a situation, I cannot travel to India to submit my passport. What can be done, please advise?. Can I get my passport stamped in Australia?

Yes, it is required if your bringing in C$10K or more. It should be ok to declare..

Excerpt from CIC website:
It is a good idea to research how much it costs to live in the place where you plan to settle in Canada.

Bring as much money as you can to make moving and finding a home in Canada easier. Note, however, that Canadian customs regulations require you to declare if you are bringing more than C$10,000 into Canada. If you do not tell them, you may be fined or put in prison. These funds could be in the form of:

cash
documents that show property or capital payable to you (such as stocks, bonds, debentures, treasury bills, etc.) or
documents that guarantee payment of a set amount of money, which are payable to you (such as bankers’ drafts, cheques, travellers’ cheques or money orders).
