My Travel Story

For me and my wife, it has been our dream to settle and work in Canada. And this is not only because of the great opportunity and fabulous education and health care benefits Canada has to offer, but more so to help improve my wife's anxiety and depression by moving away from the environment that puts great pressure on her, escalating further her sufferings. We plan to do this by 5-10years from now, but due to the enhanced public policy of the Canadian government on temporary resident being allowed to work in the country for the whole duration of their stay, we changed our minds and took it as an opportunity for us to fulfill our long-term goal. We applied to a bank loan to finance our visa processing and flight tickets, but our remaining funds will only be good for a 1 month stay in Canada. Our plan is for my wife to stay in Canada for the whole 6 months validity of our tourist visa, until she could get an employee-specific job under the said enhanced public policy. I will be returning to the Philippines after a month visit and will try to pay or settle first our bank loans before I can return to Canada to help my wife earn and start a living.

I am asking for your kind support to fund my wife's stay in Canada for another 5months until she could get a stable job that would offer her a work permit or working visa. I could not support her even if I have a job in the Philippines since I will be focusing in paying our bank loan first and again start saving for my return trip to Canada. Your funding assistance will definitely help us realize our life-long dream and alleviate my wife's suffering from severe anxiety and depression. Thank you in advance and God bless.
