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

[faithfully hopeful]

hi everyone, i just wanted to share something that just happened. i have known someone from pre june 2010 applicants who had a really disappointing news. ahead lang kami nag apply mga 4-5 mos and then their papers were submitted sa CEM last nov, and then waiting na sana cla for medicals yet 90 days passed walang MR and hanggang umabot this month na wala pa ring MR. Upon checking the online status recently, nag DM ung status and naka lagay na denied application because of kulang ng work experience. really frustrating 'coz expect na sana ng MR and all of the sudden na denied. bakit kaya nagka ganun, e na process na yun sa nova scotia.

how about us who are waiting for our pps? nakakalungkot talaga.. bigla akong kinabahan...

what do you think of this guyz? plz share your insights...

baka sa sobrang dami ng applicants kasi kahit madaming documents kang ipresent ilang taong experience sa work deny ka prin. too bad sa nadenied sabi nga swerte swerte lang talaga ang pag aabroad.Hindi pala baka talagang ang daming applicants na kaya nagkaganun at nadeny. Sa case na namedical na ang magiging problema is ulitin uli ang medical at iextend and ang visa validity pero okay na rin yun kaysa sa madeny. yun nga lang gastos na naman. hay!! Sa case naman namin na naghihintay na lang ng passport with visa konting tiis nga lang pero for sure di nila hahayaan na abutin yung expiration ng visa yun nga lang talagang mahabang habang paghihintay at pag titiis. malungkot nga lang ang daming taong tanong ng tanong hay para tama si mimi parang nakalimutan mo ng nag aaply ka sa canada . pero sa huli maswerte lang tayo dahil nalampasan natin lahat yun.

sabi nga ni canimmigrant hanap tayo ng flight yun nga lang urong sulong ang mga flight natin pero pasasaan ba aabante rin tayo go go go.

pasukan na naman ang worry lang namin di na namin inenroll ang anak namin at kinuha na namin lahat ng credentials nya sa skul.

Sa totoo lng sobrang hirap tlg pinagdadaanan ng bawat isa sa atin, iba't iba ng situation for instance sa situation. Ung application nmin sa Australia ok na medical ngayon kelangan nmin present mga passport pero di kami mka pgcomply sa Australian Embassy kc hawak ni CEM ang passport. Gusto man namin y pull-out muna kaso baka risky and we're thinking with da possible consequences, what if di maintindihan at magustuhan ni Canada ang reason bakit nmin y pull-out??? what if kung mgcost lalo ng delay bago magrant o maibalik uli mga passport nmin ni CEM??? sayang nmn ang 5 months na pgtitiis sa pghihintay di ba???

Grabe ang hirap tlg mgdecide at this time, everything seems uncertain lalo na kaming nasa buttom ng list (October). Too many anxiety to retaliate in details... Hay naku, kung pwede lng sana natin y enumerate lhat sa CEM bka sakali maisip at malaman nila all our sacrifices & all what we gave up along da way. Kasi to be honest at this point in time ang hirap intindihin ng systema at processing ng CEM minsan di tlg maiwasan mainis & to feel despair.

God i lift up everything to you, From Whom all Good things come. Enlighten and spare us all of your mercy.

Tama... ako nga instead mag-ipon for canada migration, nauubos pa ang pera kung saan-saan. dahil para kasing walang momentum or parang walang definite direction. Hays... sana naman kung walang nag dm ngayon eh next tuesday, doble ang mabigyan ng visa.

Isa lang msasabi ko...ganyan tlga ang CEM..namimili lang cla..basta may msabi nlang na dahilan bakit nireject...kc masyado ng mdami applicant... Ang nkakainis dun kung cno ung mga nagccnungaling sa mga proof of credentials, proof of funds, proof of relationships, etc.etc.etc...cla pa ung naapprove..minsan naisip ko,mabuti pa ung mga sinungaling cla naapprove..cla pinagpapala...may kilala ako,approved na...kya...hmmmm....ewan....

Hmm.. parang kilala ko rin yan ah.. Pero naniniwala pa rin ako sa karma. ;D

 

[Pipoy]

Waaahhh,..kung sna totoo nga ang karma..hay..ewan ko lang..kc mdaming mga cnungaling ang umaasenso...cla ang inaapprove..cla ang nagkkavisa..hay..bato-bato sa langit,ang tamaan....pwede magwala!...hehhhehe..kc masakit ang katotohanan...kya naisip ko,kung cno ung cnungaling,cla ung swerte...tama..swerte swertihan lang..kaya di na ako naniniwla sa credebility ng CEM..bigyan ng visa,slmat..hindi,?e di wag!..bka mas gusto nila ung niloloko cla...hehehheeh....bitter!...sourgraping..kya sa CEM..inyo na ang visa niyo...mababaliw lang ako sa sistema niyo!

Nakakabaliw talaga... ang stamping ng visa na umaabot ng ilang bwan... di ka man lang makapag travel sa HK or singapore, kasi nasa kanila ang passport mo for almost half a year na. Diba napaka unfair? Ung stamping ng Australia, 3 days lang... San ka pa?!

Hi guys! congratulations sa lahat ng nag DM and nakareceive ng visa!

We just landed last thursday via Manila-Narita-Toronto-Ottawa (ANA-air Canada) and all the flights were on time.We got our ticket from St. Raphael Travel for USD 900 each per adult and 750 for child fARE. All includes the taxes except for the terminal fee for 750 each. Ok din ung ANA kasi sa terminal 3 kme nagboard and di sila mahigpit kasi nkapasok sa loob ng airport ung mga kasama namin.

Regarding proof of funds, cash ko cya dinala kasi if i will buy Canadian bank draft ang mahal ng buying nila and sa bank lang cya available compare sa USD na availble sa pawnshops and money changer, anyway di naman tinanong sa port of entry if im carrying canadian or usd. They just asked how much we are bringing and did not tell us to show the money, even if its in cash or travellers cheque. Un nga lang ung risk ng cash ang dala dala nakakakaba talaga. kahit dyan sa immigration sa pinas di din tinanong kung may dala ka so wala ring nangyaring declaration. Ok din ung immigration officer wala namang tinanong ung address lang where we will be staying un lang. pati sa custom wala ding hinanap na lists super lista pa naman ako...

for PDOS, ok lang ung picture na binalik nila satin. passport size or 2x2 is fine. For those who have minor children, just bring their passports, pictures and CPR and pay for the fee.

Ok dito sa Canada, yung dating namin is first time na may araw so lahat ng tao dito masaya sila na nagpicnic sa park... sabi ko nga sa relatives ko dito grabe ang saya nila makaexperience ng araw as in makikita mo ung mga Canadians nakabilad sa araw. hehe

Good luck to all of you guys! Godbless you all! Im still continuing to pray for all of us.

congratulations ...and thank you for sharing your landing experience in canada... ;D ;D ;D

Lol! You know, if I think about it, parang ang sarap pa-alam sa kanila what sort of hassle it's been for a case such as mine. Like tell them about how for each time I submitted my app (I've submitted two), about 5 months after submission for each, a new FSW policy was put in place, and thus compromising the expected processing period of my apps not once, but twice (during the FSW NOC38, and now FSW NOC29). Hehe! I can just imagine how it must be now for those who submitted theirs before FSW NOC38/before 2008. Mag-triple whammy sila with a new FSW policy this year. What the heck. Kung Americano pa siguro sila, sabay e-entra na naman another new policy this year, thus, putting their apps in the backburner lalo, baka matagal na siguro nila na-demanda/class action where possible si CIC. Litigation to the max! haha! Oh well. Wishful thinking. Lol!

The only thing/s good about the situation lang talaga is that buti na lang nag-re-refund sila for withdrawn apps, and that the passports are with CEM already (I agree with noelcezh, maswerte pa rin at na-abutan/lampasan yun) and our agony should be over soon, preferably leaving us 3 months (no choice now based on my visa's expiry) before the visa expires.

So anyway, I've set a deadline for their return of my passport vs the best time to email them to ask politely when I can expect it back if hindi bumalik by Saturday next week June 4 or by June 15 (still deciding which).

*hay* Sana nga talaga yung Canadian public holiday lang talaga yung reason for the disruption of the expected schedule of release/return of passports. And that things should be back to normal already. Hence, I'm still hopeful/optimistic that I and the other remaining September expiry visa applicants in our thread would receive our visas by Saturday next week. 8)

Pray pray na lang po I guess. Malamang super joyful and relieved naman po tayo pag dumating na yan eh. Ika nga ni credit card ad, "priceless" (the relief first thing.. secondary na si joy). Lol!

Have a nice weekend everyone!

faithfully hopeful i've been reading your post from the beginning and i feel sorry for you dahil napakahopeless mo talaga and worst you keep wishing bad omen for other people's luck. You need a lot of prayers para maconvert yang negative attitude mo. Only God decides what is best for each and everyone of us and questioning other people's good fate is unacceptable in the eye of God. Nagpaalam ka na once in this forum and you came back again spreading negative vibes just like what you are doing before. Lahat tayo dumadaan sa butas ng karayom para lang makakuha ng visa kaya wish ko lang sayo i kalmante mo ang emotion mo and immerse yourself in some religious activities dahil ang mga hopeless people ay hindi pinagpapala. Pasensya na kung hindi maganda ang perception ko sa attitude mo , but i am posting this message para matauhan ka, pray more, keep yourself busy and be inspire with the people in this forum na napakaganda ang pananaw nila
sa buhay....Peace to you and Goodluck!!!!!

seniors good day ,

ask ko lng, how and whats the best/convenient way in paying the RPRF fee...

 

[heatspine]

@ hello_kitty. you're a week ahead of me. again, what i noticed is that the tail end of the month talagang kumokonti ang in-issue. siguro dahil na-reach na ang quota for the month? i really don't know. puro hula lang tayo pero one thing is consistent ... na-issue pa rin sya kahit LATE. i think that is a lot to be desired for

i have my own angst. sino ba naman ang nde na maiinis? pero as much as possible i try to keep it to myself. posting negativity only add to the misery. as much as possible i try to keep level headed and just look at the other side of the coin. pero to each his own ika nga. some really need to vent out their frustration thru posting - pero let's not break each others spirit by spreading too many of it.

here's a new hobby of mine to keep me busy (as if my work itself is not enough to take my time). i tried sending out applications - kahit wala pang final date for landing (kasi nga wala pang visa). i try to feel the market and see if the cv and cover letter is enough to attract attention. after only 2 days of sending, may mga nag-reply na agad. sayang yung isa kailangan na kasi by mid-june (as if aabot naman ako) ... pero no regrets. it just shows na relevant yung qualification ko and another good thing is that my file is already with them and i'll just have to inform them once i landed so pag may job requirement ulit - i'm already on the line. one more thing that keeps me busy is knowing where i really wanted to land. i had vancouver deadfixed as my landing point pero that is surely changing seeing the job landscape kaya inclined na ako to go to the east side. Ayun, keep the hopes up fellow applicants - June is when the fun begins

Im not wishing for other's bad omen...i just quoted ung post ni carby na naniniwla siya sa karma.. And sinabi ko lang sna nga totoo nga ung karma..kc parang hindi nman totoo..dahil wla nman nangyayaring ganun...

And your advise slmat..pero cguro nman di mo na po kailangang ipost sa ganito if concern ang gusto mong iparating..pwede pong i-PM yan..anyway,oo tama ka positive ang pananaw ng mga tao dito,and im not ruining that..

Im not hopeless...At di rin ibig sabhin na dahil nakkpagsabi ako ng ganun,kulang na ako ng faith sa Taas, at para bang kailangan kong irejuvenate ang faith ko..di mo nman po alam ano religion ko,and lalong di mo nman sukat ang faith ko.. Gusto kong i-Pm ito kaso na-offend ako sa post mo..someone advised me not to post such message again pero atleast PM yun..di ako npahiya..gya ng ganito..
