Manila Tread for English Speakers - join here!

[the_14th]

Do you mean papers you need to land or papers that would be good to have once here?

Papers to land - like what to show the immigration officer and all.

Thanks StephC and CJG!

Nothing. You don't have a file yet.

If they are a PR they will have a UCI number that they could include. I think anybody who deals with immigration gets a UCI number assigned for life 8) File number is specific to a certain application.

Anyways how's it going guys? Moose is sleeping on the floor, he's complaining the bed is too soft : oh my..
Anyways, the floor is much nicer then his bed in the Phils or at least comparable. Suit yourself :-X

Any news this week? No DM for Mrs. Scos?

You guys who have landed - any plans for Canada Day long weekend? Here it's supposed to be good weather, first time in a few years. We don't have a lot of money, so I scrapped the plans for Tofino. But I do know a top secret access trail for this beach

, a point on the Juan De Fuca trail. And it's freeeee! Mostly because it's too remote to check if you paid the envelope. This is where you will see the last community of secret remote beach surfers.

Nice beach Steph. In my younger days a buddy and I camped most of the beachs and islands, it was much easier then, tent back pack, and change for the ferry and off you went .

Quick question to the crowd, customs form for landing, is this supplied by CEM or ?

My wife was handed one in Manila before she boarded the plane. Then another one on the plane.

Canada Day weekend we are driving up to Gimli on Saturday to look around and take some pics. It will be more driving practice for my wife and also give her a chance to see the open prairie. Sunday morning we do church :'( then will just hang around the house. Monday we will go to the Forks and watch the fireworks.

Awwww nice! Private beaches are the best. Canada day is not about spending money, it is about taking a 24 to the beach or campsite with friends and have a great time. Maybe spend a few loonies on fireworks but that is all.

Sunday morning we do church

Oh no Jeep Guy! ??? Come to think about it, Moose has been going to church on Sunday also.. guess he made a deal with the Almighty that if he got here he would attend. But he's always late and sleeps in so doesn't make it there often. I will drop him there on my way to work so I'm off the hook. Last time I was like.. why are they saying the same thing 20 times If I wanted to hear something repeated that much I would just visit Grandma Didn't want to fess up that it's the very same church where Teenage Steph in her army boots hid and drank her first beer with 2 other derelicts while on a class trip :

Its certainly an experience for me. I'm an atheist and my wife gives me the option to go or not but I go just to support her. Its only an hour out of my day.

I hope somebody can help me about this situation..

Background : 2010 applicant under spousal sponsorship with dependent in Philippines.
2011-vegreville transferred file to edmonton without aip and owp. Processing time in edmonton is 24 months (i dOn't know if this Is just 1st stage or the whole process itself) we are on our 19th month of waiting.

Current status: aporoved LMO NOC B.. Submitted work permit application for SUPERVISORY POSITION.

Now, when I receive my work permit as a skilled worker i will try to apply for a student permit for my 12 year old son in the Philippines. I don't know if this is possible but since i have this option as a skilled worker I will still try. It's been 3 years since i've last seen my son. Sad i don't know when will Edmonton office open our file again Sad this is my only hope.

What is ur opinion about this? Pros and cons? Is dual intent applicable to this situation? What should I do?

This thread is mainly focused on 2 things: 1) Family sponsorship and; 2) Ball lice....

You would be better off asking your question in the Skilled Workers thread as they will have better related information for you. Feel free to come back here for the laughs though ;D

YES BUT IF BALL LICE CAN TELEPORT MAYBE WE CAN HAVE ALL THE APPLICANTS TELEPORT TO CANADA WITHOUT A VISA,,,,,THAT WOULD SURELY FOOKUP CEM

They would have to hitch a ride on the ball lice. So people would be "infesting" the ball lice. Now there's a switch.

The only thing is you would have to flagpole after arriving here because you would teleport past CBSA.

Oh, and keep this quiet or the drug cartels will turn the lice in to mules and ruin it for everyone...

HAPPY CANADA DAY BALL LICE!!!!!!!!!!!!
