During our 6 year relationship, I have visited the Philippines 3 times.

Second time was 31 days. August to September 2014. i got married September 4

Third time was 8 months. August 18 2015 to April 22 2018
With our application, I made sure to submit the original receipts for MY visas for the Philippines.


* My husband has never been to Canada before. He has never left Philippines.

Kind of the same as you - we've been together for almost 11 years, first 4 years together in the Philippines then I left for Canada, and we got married last year. He's never left the Philippines either, and I've only gone back 4 times since I left.

Still waiting to hear back from MVO about background check and DM.

Have you tried emailing them?what did they say?

No, I've been reading through what everybody writes here and since processing time can last 12 months, I've just tried to be patient. My husband gave them call in Canada but the info he got was nothing more than what we know already from ecas and gckey. Almost 11 months na waiting game for us na, actually, and for some, it took only 6 months. They sent me an email for pre-arrival orientation though, first week of February and a request for another medical exam on the same week because mine expired. So, for now, it's on background process check and waiting for DM na lang but it feels like we have been waiting forever. I guess it's not the same for everybody, there some june and july applicants who got DM status na since January so baka you're gonna be one of them soon......hehehe.....after a week or so na wla pa ring reply, i might as well, request na for the notes but that takes about one month daw to arrive. yayyyyyyy...kakaloka maghintay, may petsa na sana me for departure but what can i do, walang visa....hahaha......

Hi everyone,

Ano ano po ba specific requirements pa aside from the forms posted on their website for spousal sponsorship? Ano po mga complete requirements na pinasa niyo?

Ang alam ko palang po kasi is the forms filled up from their website, Payment, Pictures, Marriage certificate.
Kelangan din po ba ng police clearance? (Police clearance lang po ba or NBI clearance?)

Meron pa po ba kayong documents na ini-add bukod dun sa mga nabanggit?

Yung Cenomar. It's a way of authenticating that marriage is registered. So sa cenomar before marriage it should appear that you haven't been married, sa cenomar na pagkasal na kayo. nakaprint doon na kinasal ka sa asawa mo .And I can never remember what it's called.

Bale iba pa po siya from Marriage certificate from PSA? Bale pinapa register palang po yung marriage namin, they will feedback us on march 14 if pede na namin makuha yung psa marriage certificate, pede na din kaya mag request sa PSA ngayon ng AOM?

by the way, should I get a police clearance or NBI clearance?
