great! you passed the thorough checking of documents, my friend there checks & validates the authenticity of documents walang kaikaibigan kasi if you're not qualified denied ka talaga. if they allow you & you have fake documents or not qualified my friend gets fired.
Thing is I get to know how pinoys do all means to pass. some get endorsed by mayors, a secretary who has milllions more than her salary etc etc.

Has anybody applied for the Schengen Visa at the Finnish Embassy?? Is it easier to apply there than in the other Scandinavian Countries Embassies?

kasama na ba ang finland sa schengen visa? i went to helsinki on business a couple of years ago and I had to get a finnish visa separate from the schengen visa i used to visit france and the netherlands.

Yes, kasama na siya, even Iceland ata kasama na sa Schengen Visa. Nung pumunta ako Europe nung 1999, 6 Countries lang ata kasama sa Schengen, ngayon dumami na.

hello mahadera...

switzerland is not part of the schengen. kaya makakuha ka man ng swiss visa, it's not valid to go to france, italy, spain, and other schengen countries.

your tita from vienna, if she can show any salary or tax payment certificate, can sponsor you. if she's not working but married to an EU citizen who is working, then her husband can sponsor you.

[mahadera25]

talaga? tnx... pano ba process ng application sa vienna? kasi mejo bobita tong tita ko eh. di alam kung pano gagawin nya... hehehe. ano ba mga hihingin ko sa kanya.?

pumunta ka sa austrian embassy, makati and ask for schengen visa application form and requirements. doon mo makikita kung ano talaga ang kailangan nila from your tita.

One of the requirements would be a Certificate of Sponsorship from your tita.

dito sa france (which is another schengen country and which, probably has the same requirements), to apply for Certificate of Sponsorship, the sponsor must submit the following documents to the Mairie (town hall):

(From the sponsor)
- proof of accommodation (title of ownership of property or rent contract)
- water or telephone or electric bill
- Residence visa or national identity card
- processing fee of 15euros to be paid to the Mairie
- last tax payment certificate or last 3 months' salary certificate
(From you)
- passport copy of guest
- copy of travel insurance policy of guest (which you will secure from the Phils)

The Mairie will either approve or reject the application. If approved, same copy will be sent to you in Manila... which you will submit to the embassy, along with the other requirements.

I dont think you need any show money to get a visa if someone is inviting you. Kse un nang-iimbita *** ang iko-consider nila whether she/he can support your stay there. Ang pagkaka-alam ko hihingian ka lang ng show money kung mag-travel ka ng walang invites. Sa work mo naman, i think you also have to document that you are working... thats one of the requirements. You need to ask your HR Dept. a certification of your employment.

When i applied for schengen visa to go here in Denmark, way year 2000 un ang isa sa requirements... Tas nun nagsara un danish embassy jan sa manila and i my aunt invited me up here again, Kailangan ko na sha i-process sa Norwegian Embassy... on which the "filipino" employees are very much judgemental.. Daig pa nila un mga foreigners... Anyway, nun pumunta ko dun.. iba din requirements, dahil nga basically alam ko na kun ano mga dapt kong dalhin papeles, dinala ko na un nun nag-apply ulit ako ng 2nd visa, although it is listed on their requiréments, di naman nila na kinuha taht time.. So iba-iba talaga...

[mahadera25]

[mahadera25]

[lonely_pinoy]

all schengen countries are expensive to the max, prepare your wallet.

re requirements sa austria pls read post prior to your post.

Besides having a European lover (which most likely impossible in my case) If you want to go to Europe another way, do you need to have a bank account with a lot of money in it? And at least how much?

What if you don't have any estate here? ok lang ba?

when i first applied for a schengen visa at the Dutch Embassy, i had an 80,000 pesos balance in my bank account. I showed a Business registration for my photo processing franchise and told the interviewer, a Dutch, I love photography and I heard the Netherlands have one of the most beautiful landscapes...(i found out later, di pala )
