True. Pero yung MMR Vac.Cert, you have to present it daw upon landing, says the doctor :)
Hello po. Ask ko lang po sana regarding sa MMR vac cert.
Coz i got the first MMR shot in baguio
The second here in pangasinan na po but measles lang po ininject sakin.
Is that ok po? Or i still have to get MMR 2 vac?
TIA :)

yong AOR2 po is 2nd Acknowdgement of Receipt yon po yong narereceived ng principal applicant(person being sponsored) usually sa email nila, stated dun sa AOR2 na nareceived na nila yong application mo sa canadian embassy manila and nakalagay din dun yong application number mo at Unique client identifier(UCI) number mo. kadalasan generic yong AOR2 nakalagay lahat dun yong mga kailangan pa nilang documents na hindi mo pa napapasa.

yong redflag is yong mga cases sa relationship na medyo alangain like yong mga factors below:

Assessment factors

To assess whether your marriage is genuine, the immigration office will examine the following factors, which are not listed in any particular order or by weighting:
• The intent of you and your husband regarding the marriage.
• The beginning, evolvement, development, and duration of the relationship before your marriage.
• The circumstances of your engagement and wedding ceremony.
• Communication between you and your husband before and after the marriage.
• The existence of intimate relations and the consummation of the marriage.
• Cohabitation and visits.
• The absence of economical or financial motives, ie, the search of a better life being the principal reasons for contracting the marriage.
• The knowledge of both of your histories and daily lives.
• Financial support and employment.
• Former marital statuses.
• Prior attempts by you to enter Canada.
• Language differences between you are your husband.
• Plans and arrangements for the future, especially if there are children involved.
• The credibility of testimonial and documentary evidence related to the relationship.
• The compatibility between both of you, particularly from the educational, social, religious, ethnic and age points of view.
• Significant gaps in age.
• Differences in personal circumstances.
A significant age gap can be one issue to suggest that a marriage may not be genuine or question your compatibility, due to the fact that individuals in their 20s and 40s are at different stages of life and normally differ in terms of social interests, aspirations for the future, health status and energy levels, leisure activities, employment and financial status, and spending habits.


Thank you po

No, spouse po. Yeah, maybe it depends from where you are landing from. :) My hubby was asked to present his upon landing, kaya I thought same-same lang, and normal lang. He told me beforehand na kasi about the MMR, kaya expected ko na though I was trying to look for a way para maiwasan sana. haha. Maybe from Pinas ganoon po talaga. :) Not really sure though. Better to be safe na lang. :)
Nung nag-land kame dito nung June together with my son, sisters and dad, hindi kame hiningan ng MMR Certificate. Yung hubby ko naman, In Process papers nya ngayon for spousal, nagupfront medical sya sa IOM Makati, wala sya dala baby book, hindi sya niequire vaccine. Yan po yung experience namin.

It depends where ka magpapamedical. If wala kang proof, you may have to get it again. If meron, issuehan ka nila ng certificate na meron ka na. :)
I have two different MMR certificates from two different clinics. Pero ang nakalagay po kasi dun sa isang certificate is measles vac not MMR vac. Is that ok po?

Kumikitang Kabuhayan ang mga medical center na assigned sa pinas.

Ang laman nang info sheet na needed nang CIC is

707 HIV test
502 Chest Xray Examination
712 Syphilis Test(VDRL or RPR)
501 Medical Exam


Yan lang ang submit nila sa CIC. My form yan ibigay sainyo at magupload sila sa system for the barcode. Kasi yun UMIxxxxxx yan scan nila to check if existing na yan sa dbase nila. Kaya yun mga nagupfront advisable para straightforward app.
I had my upfront medical in St. Lukes Global City in 2014. Doctors told me to have the vaccines but i refused. Coz i was told by those friends whos already in canada that theres no need for that.
2 years after I got a remedical request and went to the same hospital in St. Lukes Global City (Aug 31, 2016). I went to the same process but at the end of the medical they refered me to St lukes - Ermita for medical furtherance ( Hepa test, OB referral for my PCOS and Psychiatric Evaluation) and placed appointment for (Sept 13, 2016). They told me that i needed to comply with the furtherance so the process would push through the immigration requirements. So i waited and had the medical at St. Lukes Ermita. 3 days after ( Sept 16, 2016). I went back to global City to get a copy of the e-medical information sheet. To my surprised it only shows. The ff:

PLEASE WAIT FOR CIC FOR ANY MEDICAL FURTHERANCE

The Medical was Submitted in Sept 16, 2016.


707 HIV test
502 Chest Xray Examination
712 Syphilis Test(VDRL or RPR)
501 Medical Exam


Theres absolutely no result from my medical furtherance and wasnt asked for the vaccines or anything but the furtherance that I did was by Doctor's choice and not part of the Immigration Requirements. I think these ppl really wanted to get more money from the Applicants.

I think hindi sya ipresent. Kasi if present yan, nasa checklist yan hepa,mmr and the list goes on. If asked ka nila, no you havent and will take it as soon as you acquire your "SIN" and for the meantime you will go for atleast 3 months private healthcare insurance until you have your own healthcard insurance from government.

Eto ang importante pag nagland ka:
COPR, at PASSPORT mo may VISA.
Yourself :p

Next na gawin mo is have your "SIN" :) Parang national ID for transaction sa bank etc etc.

This is the sad reality. Just a warning for those who will do upfront and remed. Becareful, you can tell them were going to get it once we land there. Since, they need an updated record and the hospitals there are already using the approved vaccine for people living there. Possible kasi yun vaccine sa pinas, is different din sa ginagamit sa canada, though pareho effect sa katawan.

They can inform the doctor as PER CIC this is the only required etc mentioned the following items:

707 HIV test
502 Chest Xray Examination
712 Syphilis Test(VDRL or RPR)
501 Medical Exam

It's kinda irks me to know that we are being obligated to have that kind of stuffs(vaccines) which are not being asked by CIC. Imagine how much you can save. As far as from back reading here, it costs 8K PHP, imagine if they had on top vaccine, it will costs maybe more than that. Plus if you have 2-3 dependents. Wawa man yun applicant. Ano tingin nila,may balon of money mga applicants? Hindi porket,citizen at pr na mga sponsor naten doon, nagoverflow money na. Iba cost of living doon, mas mahal kaya ganun yun cost of money nila. Sorry I'm venting out this, ayaw ko kasi yun nanngugulang sa mga tao. It's really sad. And I dont tolerate such abusive act, making the applicant do what was not obliged in the first place.

True. Ang mahal pa naman ng MMR +Pregancy Test. 8k basic, umabot akong P13,500. Imagine.. Nakakalula amg presyo. Tapos siyempre first time mo, maniniwala ka sa sasabihin nila. Like ako, I'm not fully informed nung nagpamedical kaya oo na lang nang oo.. Sad.
so if that's the case, per applicant they earn 5.5K php per head. hmmm :p
nababsa ko na yan mga mmr na yan. napareact lang ako nung nagcomment ka na for landing yan requirement. And I was, like bat di ako informed nun pinay na nag asikaso sa akin dito na accredited hospital nila dito sa doha. Hmmm.Anyways,I phoned up the hospital where I got my upfront and she told me ( the assigned person for immigration stuffs medicals)

"Mam, yun lang po xray,urine at blood mam. Yun vaccine mam hindi na po yun, transfer ko kayo mam if you need vaccine"

Just my two cents.

I read na rin that part po, kaso di ka naman nila irerelease doon kapag tumanggi ka (my experience lang). Tipong wala ka na lang magawa, I'm not sure kung merong tumanggi dito at kung ano man pinagawa upon landing tapos walang MMR Cert. Hehe.

Ang mahal din kasi noon. ::)

Basta ang pinaka-inihabilin sa akin bago ako marelease is wag iwala ang certificate at ipresent sa kanila. Di raw ito isasama sa application. :)



Matindi talaga sa Pilipinas. :D
Nagpamedical ung husband ko sa IOM Makati. He wasn't asked to do that MMR. He is already passed sa medical eligibility sa MyCiC.

And I never heard that thing na kailangan ipresent yun upon landing kasi if it is really mandatory sana nung nagpamedical si hubby nirequire sya.
