isang option namin yan noon na dun kumuha if ever dumating agad visa pero me nabasa kaming site na mas mahal dun ag ielts tapos baka mahirapan pa ako dun. so, i decided to take it here.. at least dito, me idea na ako sa mga examiners
actually this week lng ako nag decide na kumuha na sa jul30 pero nagrereview na ako for more than 2 months sa review center.

ummmm makikisali na po.... I have a friend who took a CLBA ( Canadian Language Benchmarks Assessment) test instead......not IELTs kasi nandito na siya. I never heard of any employers na hanap nila ng IELTs sa mga nagland na via other process,unless you came to Canada via worker's visa....they really require EILTs....pero pagnandito ka na other employers (not all) would ask for a CLBA.

thanks sis. parang ang tagal ko yatang nakatulog at ngayon lang ako uli nakabalik sa forum

 

[kezzia]

Welcome to Canada Kezzia!!!!! Where ka now? Advice ko lang po na wag mong iconvert ang time sa Philippine time kasi di ka talaga makaka-adjust. I have seen it happen to one of my friends lol. Gising siya sa gabi at tulog sa umaga....almost 6 months bago niya natutunang matulog ng gabi dito lol. God bless!!!

yes i guess you are right.nasa Ontario ako and thank GOD i was able to sleep last night. hindi lang talaga deep sleep pero the fact that i felt sleepy around 8pm i think was a good sign.weird nga lang na ang liwanag pa ng araw.

Hi everyone. So happy to announced that my husband received his first letter from V.O. Manila. They received our transferred file July 8/11 and on July 12/11 letter they are asking for additional docs---> that's the YAY part. They want 1.) APPENDIX A or applicant and dependants info, 2.) PASSPORT, has to be the new red passport not the old green Philippine passport as the new red passport is machine readable as required by International Civil Aviation Org. 3.) Libyan Police Clearance. My husband worked in Libya and KSA. We submitted along with our application a letter stating how we tried to obtain PC from both countries but with no luck. We also included courier receipts of letters sent to both embassies as well as the PC request letters. I am just wondering why they insist on asking for PCs, and why Libyan only not both considering Libya is still in chaos right now. Anyways, I learned from one of the forumers here that we can obtain PC through DFA-OUMWA. The V.O. is only giving my husband 45days to submit those additional docs. I heard it takes 3mos to obtain PC from DFA-OUMWA. Hopefully they will consider my husband's case and will issue him PC within 45days. Fingers crossed!

Also, info from V.O. Manila. They said on the letter that they are currently processing 80% w/in 9mos and standard processing time is 12mos.
