If I'm not mistaken kasama yun pag pinadala na yung PP with visa. Ok lang naman po mag attend kahit walang yellow flyer . Sabihin nyo lang nasa CEM pa passport nyo.

Naginquire ako dati sa Welcome House Facility ng BC, located sya mismo sa dowtown Vancouver pero sa reply nila priority daw nila ang mga refugees :) :) pero kung wala ka daw talga mapuntahan you can contact them 2-3 days before your arrival at titinganan nila kung may available. Mura sana sya kasi 1BR- $50/day, 2BR-$100/day (whole appartment na).Sa mga hotels and bed & brakfast naman ang taas ng rates nila ngaun. No wonder sa SUMMER sila madami magrelease ng mga Visa kasi peak rates ng hotels and airlines ;D ;D ;D
thank you sa feedback, breana!

Hello po... I'm seeking adv kasi nurse po ako and working for six years. Pag dating Canada wala pa naman po ako employer....wala pa po ako naka set na plans like taking CRNE or yung mga bridging programs. Honestly, wala pa po kasi ako idea about this and kung ano magandang gawin ng isang nurse pag dating sa Canada if mag work na agad sa homes or mag take muna ng exams? If someone out there who's kind enough to give me adv regarding this sobrang maging thankful po ako....share naman po your strategic plans :-* :-* :-*

And about naman po sa US license ko...hindi ko na po sya na renew...what's you opinion about this?

Please....please... please....light my path! thanks :D ;) :D

thanks for your reply.... i will follow your advice.

Do you think they can return your passport internationally?!?
@rslcanada
Am not sure about them being able to send your passport to an address overseas. How about if you email CEM and ask if they do? hehe. Sa tingin ko kasi mas maganda if sa Pinas i-mail 'cause meron na silang agreement with local couriers who deliver CEM's mail by batches so parang baka mas secure although of course if it's a big courier I'm sure the package would still arrive at its overseas destination if it has to be that way.

Reli Travel po. It's downstairs sa dulo near BDO/staircase to exit. I asked the guards too. And super traffic lately going to Southmall 'cause of the Maynilad roadworks.

hehehe! Yan din po one of those things am thinking of. it's tempting to have it forwarded, but I think in the end I might leave it. Kasi dun pinupulot na lang sa mga taboy ng ibang residents daw. Lol! And once you have a job I think mabilis na bumili nyan dun.

And am not sure yet if I can get my own place right away on landing so it can be installed asap or stored in my own space. If makikitira lang on landing parang dyahe dalhin ksi sisikip pa bahay/garaje nila for something that's not really gonna be used right away or not that important.

But if I end up having stuff cargo'ed and turns out I can include it; like let's say it's a package deal of 6 boxes and I've only 5 boxes of things leaving one box more, then I might bring mine with possible extra charges since it's bigger than a balikbayan box (I still have its box with styro packaging). Otherwise, will most likely leave it.

Haven't really gotten in touch with any cargo forwarder yet. Which begs the questions: meron na po ba ritong gumamit ng or planning to use a cargo forwarding service to have your stuff delivered to Canada (goods to follow)? Please would you mind sharing info, cost, or tips when securing such a service? Thanks.

Keep in mind lang po if you will bring appliances, 110v output dito sa Canada. Our appliances in the Philippines are 220-240v.
Plus you can't use your warranty here, not sure about this though.

Lol. Correct po si rubyalabar. 110v nga pala dun. I've checked the manual on my LCD before, it says 110 - 240v. But I still have my doubts and can only check if it's true if my TV's not mounted on a wall. I wanna find out if anything about voltage is written behind it 'cause I didn't find any indication on the plug. Or I can call the manufacturer/service center to confirm I guess.
