thank you ms.crimsoncheeks, on going na kc yung application nmin for canada may file number na kmi, and sabi ng agency nmin sa dubai by 2010 bka maka alis na kmi. IELTS nalang ni husband ang kulang. mejo kinakabahan kc ko kc salary wise ok na sweldo nming mag asawa pero kc dubai is not a family friendly country. [textspeak!] kc kming relatives sa canada and close friends to rely on when we get there. lakasan lang tlaga ng loob for the future of my family.

^yup, madaming ganyang work dito. My brother went back to HS and on his first day he was happy because he had lots of friends already. A group of filipinos approached him and they were very welcoming.

sis piggyxoxo thanks!

sis angelofmine- we are from dubai din and expecting our application to approve by mid 2009. we applied thru agency and my husband just took ielts exam here this month and waiting for the result(keeping my fingers crossed!). balak din namin pumunta dun by early 2010 and i hope meron available na work para sa amin dun. im currently working as merchandiser in one of the retail companies here. sana meron mga ganun na job para sa akin dun just in case mauna muna ako. willing naman kami kahit saan lugar since wala naman kaming kakilala dun.

hi sis ysangaby! sa britsh embassy b kumuha ng exam hubby mo? san sya nag review? madali lang daw ba exam? bkit ka mauuna pumunta sa canada hindi ba sabay application nyo? sorry ha dami kong tanong, wala nman kc kming kilala pag punta nmin dun wlang relatives or as in closed friend, tlagang kmi lang. kya mejo nakakatakot kc start from scratch kming dalawa.. kumusta nman yun dba?

ysangaby · « **Reply #106 on:** December 23, 2008, 03:39:44 pm »

sa university of wollongong sya kumuha ng exam last dec14 kasi nag iba na yung location ng british council dito and they can get the result by the end of Dec. Kababalik lang namin from pinas dun sya nag review sa review center. medyo costly kasi dito sa dubai ang review nag inquire kami mga 2K ang review. kami rin walang kakilala dun although me relative sya kaya lang di rin sila close. in my opinion siguro di naman mahirap mag start from scratch kasi nasa abroad na rin tayo ngayon at least na experience na natin yun bago pa tayo pumunta dun. pag na approve kami baka ako muna maiwan si hubby dito(me loan pa sya hehe!) tapos sunod na lang sya with our kids after 6 months or a year.(kaya ko kaya yun?) bahala na, basta hopefullly ma approve na application namin within this next year God willing- as you have said di family friendly country and dubai.

wow ang tapang mo nman sis. saang province ba ng Canada balak nyo mag stay? Policy kc nmin thru thick and thin kelangan samasama kming pamilya aalis, kung d rin nman kmi sama sama eh wag ng umalis isa samin. Pero sa sinabi mong yan, binigyan mo ako ng idea, bka sabihin ko kay husband mauna na syang umalis, tpos sunod nalang kmi ni baby, pwede bang hindi ka agad umalis even if approve ba yung visa mo? Kc dba [textspeak!] sa dubai kelangan within 30 days upon issue ng visa dpat na ka enter ka na ng dubai? ano sis madali lang daw ba exam?

ysangaby · « **Reply #108 on:** December 23, 2008, 04:51:01 pm »

plan pa lang namin yun mauuna ako pero baka pag nandyan na mabago din ang plano. sabi ni hubby dun sa exam ok lang naman yung exam, actually mas madali pa raw yung exam kesa dun sa reviewer nya. pero sana pumasa sya. di ko alam kasi after na ma approve ka [textspeak!] kailangan nyo mag first landing dun lalo na yung principal sponsor di ko alam kung gaano katagal upon approval bago ka pumunta dun. pero alam mo lahat ng kakilala ko na nag apply paalis na sila lahat papunta dun, kaya lalo kami na inspire...

i have a question about "common law visa", kasi my friend's BF is in Canada, Filipino naman siya... pero parang ang sinasabi niya sa friend ko eh yan ang pinakamabilis na way para makarating siya ng Canada eh and my friend is just asked to give her passport and parang fill out lang ng form and yung resibo daw niya from the owner of the house.. parang hindi naman ako makapaniwala kasi tiningnan ko sa mga sites parang ang daming hinihingi eh....

if you have any idea, kindly share naman kung gaano katagal ang ganitong visa.... thanks!

Hello mga sis! I just arrived here in Winnipeg a month ago. Super lamig pero nakaka-adjust na din kahit papano. I got a job as a tech support in Convergys here. So far, ok naman. Madami kaming pinoy na first job ang call center. Kaya hindi masyadong nakakailang. Good thing din, friendly ang mga canadian and ibang race na kasama namin dito. Hindi ganun ka-strict ang requirements sa application and paid training din. Ok na sya for a canadian work experience.

tlaga sis darncute? so in a months time nakahanap ka agad ng work? galing kbang pinas? kasma mo ba family mo?

allredndizzy · « **Reply #112 on:** December 23, 2008, 11:53:45 pm »

^sis, regarding your question about pag-alis...ang alam ko hanggang 1 year from the time you had your medical pwede kang umalis. Kami, dec '07 ang medical tapos natanggap namin yung visa mar '08 pero validity nung visa hanggang dec '08 lang tapos pwedeng hindi sabay sabay umalis basta dapat unang aalis yung principal applicant tapos sa immigration document may part dun na ilalagay mo kung may family ka na hindi mo kasamang nag-land. Dapat lang makaalis sya within the validity of the visa.
