Hi, good day.
I would like to request information about the List of required documents for departing filipino who is a spouse of a student in Canada and granted with an Open Work Visa.
Some told me I need a Pre-departure orientation seminar but when I went to OWWA, POEA, and CFO, they were not sure if I needed one and told me to just ask the Immigration.
