Hello,

We submitted our ITA docs April 7, 2008.

To those who submitted also their ITA within 2008, this is our forum to discuss timelines and updates with each other. I believe most of us are waiting impatiently for the VOs response, maybe we can share experiences and updates.

Please post your updates here.

Thanks

Hello,

We also lodged our residence application this 2008 (March 3). My hubby (principal applicant) just received an email yesterday from our VO Trina Kuo regarding interview schedule on April 29. Questionnaire needs to be submitted to TK before April 25.

We learned from other batchmates that processing is much faster now compared to last year. Let's keep each other updated.

Hi Amine,

Thank you for the update. With that, should we expect that we will have our interview by May? Good to know that processing is faster now. By the way, may I know who your VO is? Ours is Stephanie Gong.

Thanks.

i guess i'm a little lucky for now. Still a long way to go so i'm still hoping the phone interview would go smoothly and that there won't be any problems with my documents anymore. it took me a little over 6 months to complete the required docs after i received my ITA. my VO contacted me this month to submit my lacking documents. within 2 weeks after submitting the lacking documents, i got the interview invitation letter.

i'll give more info once i'm done with the interview. Smile

@teeser: you'll probably get your interview invitation this week Smile cheer up!!

sa mga na-interviewed this month.. kumusta na? Smile medyo disappointed ako sa interview ko. i just found out I wasn't really prepared for it. life goes on. Very Happy

sa mga hindi pa na-e-interview. make sure you can explain in detail any info you put on the questionnaire. don't bother memorizing your answers. Smile

Hi engr2008,

We were interviewed by Trina Kuo yesterday at 11am. You were right. Dapat talaga, prepared ka to explain or justify your answers in the questionnaire. Our VO even asked my husband (principal applicant) questions which are not in the questionnaire. Naka focus yung VO namin sa skills and employment ng hubby ko. Ako nga, mga 7 minutes lang nya kinausap. Pero we asked her at the end of the interview regarding her feedback on our interview. She said naman not to worry because we did well.

Don't worry too much, engr2008. Baka maganda naman ang feedback sa iyo ng VO mo kaya lang hindi mo sya tinanong. Wink Back to waiting game. We cannot do anything more except pray.

Regards,
Amine

@amine_salud: yes. my vo asked me about info not found on the questionnaires like previous employment. im the principal applicant and i was interviewed for 15mins i think. my partner was interviewed for 5mins. i asked my vo when i can get the result. 1-2 months daw if walang magiging delay sa medical certificates... something like that. parang nasa verification process pa yata at di pa nya nare-receive ang result. I didnt bother asking my vo about the interview. hehe..

Hi engr2008,

Kami rin, 1 to 2 months din ang decision due to medical certificates. According to our VO Trina, she is still waiting for the report of the medical assessors. Sino ang VO nyo? Please update us if you receive your WTR or PR, ha? Very Happy
