Things you shouldn't tell the immigration when going for a tour abroad

[shigeru]

i remember one of my tours, IO asked me how much (cash) i have on my pocket... naalala ko hindi ako nakawidraw... nilabas ko wallet ko... wala nga ako pera maipapakita kundi :

330 USD, 1000 Mille Liban, 10 chinese Yuan, 50 Nepali Rupees, 50 qatari riyals, 500 Thai baht, 20 euro, 100 malay ringgit, 1000 japanese yen, 10 egyptian pounds, 10 norway kroner, 20 PhP and 10 UAE dirhams

nasa wallet ko yan every bansa nagiiwan ako ng currency...collection lang.

naging honest naman ako...sabi ko "i'm sorry dear, i forgot to withdraw back home. if you'll permit me to go inside first and go the the bank machine to withdraw, then i will gt back to you again..." sabay pakita ng mga atms at credit cards ko...

natawa yung IO then sabi niya baka daw pwede kanya nalang 'yung 1000 japanese yen kasi wala pa siya nun... sabi ko okay lang kasi uuwi na din naman ako ng japan after ng tour ko pero baka sabihin nila humihingi sya ng pera, bawal yun. sabi niya antayin ko daw siya sa may lobby kasi in 20 mins tapos na duty niya at tatapusin lang niya ang 2 nakapila next to me.. then she gave me my passport...

^puwede ituloy ko na yung kwento ko... i-share..

i waited at the ground lobby near exit. i was shocked. she's so gorgeous and sexy, nagiging matanda lang siya sa immigration uniform niya. she's an american-lebanese and 28 y/o. nagkaroon tuloy ako ng instant dinner date that night.. hindi ko rin siya maintindihan bakit makikisama siya sakin na isang tourist lang and stranger... hanggang lumalim na ang mga topics namin. i told her i am a half filipino half japanese, born,raised and studied in the philippines, studied another course in japan after acquired japanese citizenship, that i work in qatar...blah, blah.. hindi siya makapaniwalang pinoy ako..

...she's preggy now and my fiance, we'll be exchanging our i do's in January.

back to topic... just be yourself, speak confidently and sweet (pa-cute) and remember honesty is the best policy.

Immigration Officers: And How I Dealt With 'Em

=)

[Papa2]

Nagvacation kami ngayon sa Canada before maexpire ang binigay sa amin na 6 mo. visa dito, tatawid naman kami sa US na meron kaming multiple visa, ang problema wala na kaming return ticket na ipapakita sa IO kung sakaling hanapin, ang return ticket namin from Canada ay maexpire na din sa march kaya pinarefund na namin kasi sa US na kami magagaling pauwi ng pinas pero kung matuloy ang plano ng anak namin sa US na don na kami ipetition baka hindi na muna kami makabalik ng pinas, meron po kayang travel agency na nagbibigay ng temporary booking? salamat po sa gustong sumagot

[mommy23]

acceptable po ba ang bank passbook as proof of financial capability

[OceanBreeze]

sa immigration... Just be honest. Sagot lang kung tinatanong. Be confident with your answers. Bring necessary proof that you're eligible to travel. yun' lang.

Ayos !!!

Nakatawid naman kami ng husband ko sa US from Canada ng maayos, hindi naman pala mahigpit ang IO kapag parents, kabado ako pagdating sa POE sa Calgary, kasi 2 carts ang bagahe namin, kasi pag tinanong ako kung gaano kami katagal magstay, 10 days ang nakaready kong sagot kasi un ang natitira naming visa sa Canada at pasok pa ang return ticket, para kung sakali na hanapin meron akong ipakita, ang tanong ng IO ay kung saan kami magstay sa California at gaano katagal, sabi ko to my son at 10 days kami magstay, tapos tanong ulit kung saan kami nagstay sa Canada, nong sinabi ko na sa daughter ko, sabi nya so you have a daughter here, tapos how long did you stay, sagot ko 5 mos. tinatakan na niya agad ang passport namin at nabigyan ulit kami ng 6 mo. kaya 3x na kaming nabigyan ng 6 mo. hindi na pinansin ang mga bagahe namin kaya nakahinga na kami ng maluwag, tama nga na kung ano ang tanong un lang dapat sagutin at buti hindi na hinanap ang return ticket namin, maraming salamat sa mga helpful tips sa thread na ito

I have a concern. I've been to Thailand once and Singapore twice when I was still employed, no issues at all sa IOs dito sa pinas. But now, I'm planning to go to Singapore again, then to Cambodia. I'm currently unemployed and studying, finishing my degree.

So ano sa tingin niyo? Magiging red-flag kaya ako sa IO dito since unang destination ko is Singapore if I'll say the truth na student ako?
Or better na sabihin kong employed pa din ako?

Hi guys I'm new here. Just registered few minutes ago.
I am planning to apply a visit visa to Netherlands.I met a guy over the net . He has his visa to go here kaso di pa sya makaalis kasi father nya was diagnosed na may terminal cancer so d nya maiwan. 2 lang sila magkapatid at sya ang panganay. He is taking care of his 82yr old mom and his sick father as well, so napag usapan namin if its easy to get a visit visa here going to Netherland eh okay day and he is willing to provide necessary assistance needed like papers and monetary wise too.
I'm working now and 1 of the requirements is a letter of absencf from the company which I'm hesitant if I can get one.
Anyone here that might have any idea?
Thanks

Girl ka ba? So this guy, hindi mo pa na meet in person? kung oo sagot mo ... pag isipan mo mabuti yang gagawin mo. Sa Netherlands legal ang prostitution, sinasabi nila na kagustuhan talaga ng mga babae na mag prostitute, pero ang totoo laganap ang women trafficking doon for forced prostitution. huwag agad mag fall for his sad story, madaming nabibiktima dyan. Pero im not saying na ito talaga ang mangyayari, hindi naman lahat ganun, kaya mag ingat ka. Kung talagang gusto nya makipagkita, sya muna ang magpunta at hindi ikaw.

google mo "Amsterdam or Netherlands trafficking prostitution" para magka idea ka.
