Malapit na pala ang thanksgiving day, and first time din namin.. Makiki turkey na din kame haha.. Ano usually nyo ginagawa or pano kayo nagcecelebrate or san maganda magpunta?

[sarsingkit]

^We usually just celebrate sa bahay ng lola ni hubby along with other family and friends ni lola. She makes good turkey. Marami kasing sarado na places pag Thanksgiving dito sa Winnipeg. Kaya sa bahay lang kami, parang Christmas lang.

[showermist]

^^this year sa restaurant. Booked na. Can't handle the preparation anymore.

Hi Sisters! Baka may idea sa situation namen or makakatulong.

Our struggle is, on the morden application form that we submitted right from the start. Ang address ni hubby na nakalagay doon is address nila sa QC. Dependent niya ako and si baby namen. Ang address naman na nakalagay sa akin is address ko dito sa Paranaque. We are not yet married.

The problem is will they question the address na nakaindicate doon? kasi kung common law, supposed to be living-in in the same house.
Live-in kami dito sa pque. but the mistake is yung sa addresses na nakalagay sa app form namen. Kasi di pa rin pinapractice ni hubby na address namen ilagay nya sa mga documents. lahat ng valid IDs nya, nasa QC pa din nka address.

Help mga sis, this October na kasi interview namen.

BTW, Sariling application lang po naman ito. No agencies.

[sarsingkit]

Pa-update nyo na yung address, whatever the real address is. Any changes in the application should always be updated sa CIC.

Curious lang ako. Do you know anyone from Morden?

Hello Sis sarsingkit! I double checked the app form. Wala palang address doon, bali address lang ni hubby nakalagay which is [textspeak!] sa QC. Then nakalagay lang ako na dependent at si baby. Ang prob pala is [textspeak!] sa resume ko address ko sa Paranaque ang nakalagay. I don't know if may bearing iyon. Mga Valid IDs ko din naka address sa Paranaque. I guess I have to update those to QC. Tama po ba sis?

We don't know anyone from morden or any part of Canada. Its one of the eligibility na hinahanap nila dapat wala kakilala kahit friends.  Kasi they will review your application if ever you have relatives/distant relatives in Canada.

yup mas okay talaga na sariling application kase available na lahat online application. wala ako masyado maitutulong re address pero yun nga siguro dapat gawin update mo sila...pero sa experience ko sa Manitoba PNP mukhang hindi big deal sa kanila yun.

Sis sinong principal applicant? And accept ba nila na kayo dependent ni hubby kahit hindi pa kayo kasal? kase alam ko pag dating sa CIC stage hihingi sila ng MC as proof na dependent kayo ni hubby mo...pero hindi ako sigurado sis ha baka iba proseso sa Morden 

Good luck sis! 

[sarsingkit]

^^Why don't you just update all documents to one address? Parang ang gulo lang kasi if dalawa pa. Morden is a small town kasi kaya they are encouraging immigrants but they want a connection to Morden kasi hindi kayo allowed to move to a different city or province for a certain number of years. So if you have relatives outside, red flag yun agad.

^Common law is fine, lalo na if may anak naman na kayo together.

[ellabear]

Yep sis sarsingkit. siguro nga iupdate ko na lang address ko. pero di ata enough na proof na may baby kami. siguro need pa ng ibang proof? sis have you been to morden? do you have any idea about morden?

sis vuzhia. Partner ko po yung principal applicant. Mukang accept naman nila kasi nainterview na kami sa Skype ng immigration officer ng Morden. Pinakilala kami ni partner sakanya. okay naman. and naka declare naman sa app form namen na di pa kami married.

I know they approve common law.

[sarsingkit]

^I've only passed by Morden during road trips twice. Pero hindi pa talaga kami bumaba to see the place. It is just a small town. It is less than 2 hours from Winnipeg. I am from Winnipeg eh. To be honest, if Winnipeg is a small city, mas lalo na sa Morden. Although syempre, with a small city comes great things din naman like low cost of living and opportunities to jobs. Morden is close to the US border.

It gets very cold here in Manitoba during the winter so if you get approved, better to arrive here during the summer para maka-adjust kayo sa weather.

[ellabear]

Sana nga sis sarsingkit summer kami magland if ever maaprove. pero syempre di mo rin masabi yung expiration ng visa. kung winter edi no choice kundi mag land ng winter hehe. Ive been reading starting life in Canada ba yun from thread 1 to 2. I learned so much. So, kung ibabase ko sa situation namen ngayon. I don't know kung isasama ba namen baby namen who is turning 2 next year. Kung maaprove man kami in God'd Grace at isasama namen sya, baka 3 na sya non. I don't know kung mas okay kaya kung isama siya? and I have read also regarding sa much better if you upgrade yourself muna by going back to school for better opportunities, I don't know if that applies to Morden also.

[vuzhia]

kami naman mga sis nag medical na May 2016 kaso medyo speech delay yung 2.3 yo son ko puro 1 word pa lang nasasabi nya kaya need re evaluate ng developmental pedia ulit on December 2016 kaya pinag therapy namin sya...ayun naman na stimulate ng speech nya at sobra ng daldal ngayun. Sana maging okay ng lahat by December. Hindi naman kami nagmamadali kase syempre may right time para sa lahat, siguro gusto rin prepare ni God yung son ko syempre para ready rin sya pag nag school na sya dyan, syempre ayaw rin naman namin na may delay sya 

[sarsingkit]

^^what kind of work are you eyeing in Morden? Anywhere in Canada naman, you have to study again if you want to have an edge. Unless na sa Pinas pa lang eh hired ka na do that specific job. Pero maganda din kung maghanap ka na ng work once you land. Kahit anong work lang, at least may experience ka na working in Canada.

Ok naman dalhin yung anak at least magkakasama na kayo kaso think about kung sino mag aalaga sa anak nyo habang nasa work kayo. Kung ok lang sa inyo na isa lang ang may work and then yung isa eh stay muna sa bahay, then I guess that is fine too.

[ellabear]

Sis sarsingkit. I am not sure pa kasi di naman kami nakapag EV pero from what ive read more on physical jobs ang mga work doon and I think they changed their targeted jobs, looks like they added restaurant workers, cashiers and the like.

At eto pa sis. I found out were preggo. so baka dalawa sila dadalhin don. or iwan muna yung baby? or iwan silang dalawa?  I really don't know kung what is best.

Di kaya kami mahirapan sa expenses kung isa lang magwork sa amin?  since survival job ang malaking chance na makuha namen na work syempre siguro mababa pa ang pay.

Hi. Newbie po sa thread. I need help po or advice . My hubby and I together with our 2 kids have been here in UAE for I think 5 years na.. Napapaisip kasi ako na mag migrate sa ibang bansa which we can use resident benefits. I mean yung education, health insurance covered by government at may retirement plan. Dito kasi sa UAE , hanggat mapapakinabangan ka pwede ka magstay, pag hindi na uwi ka na. Walang residency, except sponsored by employer, education ng mga bata sobrang mahal. From your own pocket. Hindi sagot ng employer, except na lang dun sa malalaking company at magaganda ang position. Isa pa lang ang student namin dito pero halos break even na lang kami dahil sa mahal ng bahay at tuition fee. Yung bunso namin 2 1/2 yrs old na 2 more years at kelangan na rin ipasok sa proper school. may mga visa consultancies dito na pwedeng makatulong pagkuha ng visa but may big question is may work kaya kaming makukuha if ever? My husband is working in a govt bank ako namn is admin sa semi govt na insurance company. Please advise naman po kung may chances ba na makakuha ng work or mas better na dito na lang kami sa UAE. Salamat po

Hi sis we came from bahrain.. but mas pinili pa din namin magmigrate kesa magstay sa middle east.. kahit maganda ang benefits namin doon and mas malaki ng konti ang salary(tax free)

Madami din dito insurance company and im sure makakakita ka.. and for your husband naman,madami din filipino ang nagwowork sa bank.

[keisha_sophia]

naku sis berrycherry03 salamat po. nabigyan mo ko ng konting spark.. sana nga makahanap ng work .. san po bang city ang mas malaki ang chances na makakuha ng work?

[jowvxyz]

^ Hi sis, I have friends who were from UAE din. Their journey wasn't easy but after 4 years of being foreign workers, permanent residents na sila and nandito na rin 2 kids nila from Pinas. About work, they didn't get the same professional job they had in UAE but at least their earnings are enough to provide the needs of their family. I know someone pa nga na ECE graduate from Pinas but works as a cashier. Marami naman possible work here, being masipag and matyaga is really the key IMO. We're based in Alberta for 14 years now by the way. Good luck!
