Hi marcjd ask ko lang after ba mag decision made mag eemail ba ang CEM sayo para bigyan ka ng option na gagamit ka ng courrier collect? Kasi nung nagsend ako ng passport sa mismong rcbc tower naka indicate yung address ko at yung visa section. Then yung other documents thru lbc same thing. Worried ako wala pa yung passport ko decision made na ako last friday. Thanks in advance
janves, when you received your PPR, nakaindicate sa email na may courier service sila. if you were unable to let them know that it's fine with you, you can call DHL branches near you if they have a package for pick up from canadian embassy. :)

Thanks nabasa ko yun sa part ng use of collect courier. May nakasulat dun na " if you do not wish to pay costlier international shipment, please provide a delivery address in the philippines" Eh naalala ko sa mga sinend kong documents nag provide ako ng address namin does it mean snail mail ang mangyayari?

No, wwwexpress ang nagdedeliver. Para yan sa may mga representative/lawyer na possibly e nasa canada or applicants na nasa abroad.

RE: CFO SEMINAR

If you are planning to use your married name in your passport you will need to attend first the seminar for you to secure the CFO certificate which is a requirement for changing status/name in our passport. Then you will go back in their office for the cfo sticker once your visa is already issued.

Now if you are waiting for PPR or you just submitted your passport to CEM it is better to wait for you passport to have a visa stamped on it so that you wont need to go back to their office just for the cfo sticker. But if you have the luxury of time you can attend the seminar and just go back again when your visa is stamped.

In my personal experince i attended the seminar prior to application of our file because we wanted to use my married name althroughout our application. So fo me to change my status and name in my passport i have to secure the cfo certificate because its a dfa requirement. So when the time comes that i have my visa with me(hopefully soon :)) i need to go back to cfo and present the certificate that i already attended their seminar to be able to secure the cfo sticker which is mandatory for all immigrants.

Hope this helps..



i did the same thing like you so last january. im also feb applicant

Afaik, wwwexpress(dhl) lang ang nagdedeliver ng visa under this category. Kapag dm ka na, you can try calling them mga 2days after to check kung nasa kanila na yung package mo. Pero sometimes, day after ng dm, dumadating na yung visa. Iba iba e. pero usually pag nagdm ka, within a week, dadating na visa mo.

Hindi sila nagiinform, pero yung iba yata tinatawagan kapag for pickup. Manila lang kase ako, so I dont know how it works sa province. Kung nagdedeliver sila sa place mo, ganun na nga, dedeliver nila then bayad ka lang, saken 95pesos
