Hello peeps. smile.gif

Went to NBI Carriedo (called ahead to find out if their area was flooded) yesterday, arrived before 8:00 a.m. There was a long line outside, but it was moving quickly. You have to pay Php 20 for a stub (don't lose it) before you enter. Once inside you have to go to a booth to get an application form (for new applicants, those with corrections on their NBI clearance --- such as change in civil status), the lady who gives you the form will stamp your stub.

For those like me who are in a 2nd marriage, ask for an NBI Clearance with an a.k.a. notation (also known as). The US Embassy requires an NBI Clearance with all the names you were and are known by.

If you are there for renewal, no need to get an application form. Fill up the form and then go to the cashier to pay your fee. Go up the next floor for the following steps: data checking, quick search and image capture. At data checking, the lady will collect your stub. You must show them a valid ID with your picture and your signature. Never leave home without one. At quick search, if there is a hit on your name, they will ask you to come back after 2 days.

Otherwise, if there are no hits on your name, go get your picture taken. When you're done, go up the next floor for the following steps: fingerprinting, registering, then releasing of the certificate. At fingerprinting, you can buy little bits of wet ones to help remove the ink from your fingers (Php 2.00 each).

I wasn't there very long...only about an hour. smile.gif

We received our medical receipts, vaccination records and x-ray CDs after waiting at SLMCEC yesterday from about 9:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.

When Pippo and I arrived, the guard at the front door punched in her PDS (Patient Data Sheet) number and it said Immunization 2nd Floor. I was so happy. Called my husband and the first thing I said to him was..."Boy, are you in trouble now." biggrin.gif lol He said "Oh no...both of you are coming here now?" It was a happy, happy thing.

What wasn't so happy was how long we waited to get our shots (we must have waited over 3 hours for that), and how long we waited to get the receipts, the vaccination records and the x-ray CDs (Pippo's was released around 2pm, mine close to 6pm because I was called twice to the window by one of the ladies at their Editing/Quality Control section to confirm certain entries on my medical report). We didn't eat lunch till like 4pm...although the lady at the Immunization Room did tell us we could eat after getting our shots...I didn't realize how much of a wait we were going to be in. My poor Pippo...we were both so hungry. There is a small Chinese restaurant up the street from where the clinic was...in front of the now closed Pork Avenue (Pippo laughed when she saw the sign), we had lunch there.

Wish the rest of the staff had given us fair warning about how much longer we had to wait. I was hoping to get back to the office, but those plans went out the window very quickly. Even more frustrating was that there were a lot of people yesterday but only 3, 4 or 5 people at the Releasing Counter processing clients. They have windows from A to M, for heaven's sake...what a waste of resources. And they know Mondays and Tuesdays are busy...you would think they would add more personnel at the windows to process more people faster.

A word to the wise...on your 2nd/3rd/last day, whenever you get your vaccines, go out and eat after that. Because you will be waiting a very, very long time at the Releasing Counter. Their sign says you will NOT be processed according to first-come, first served basis, but depending on your results. in my case, aside from being called to the window twice, before they even brought Pippo's records to the ground floor, I was called back up the 2nd floor because they forgot to have me sign one of the forms re: Pippo's TST findings.

Good luck on this leg of the journey! smile.gif

Thanks guys. smile.gif

I tell you, I really lost my sense of humor after waiting so long. But when it was over and I heard my husband's sympathetic voice on the phone, I felt much better.

This weekend I am organizing all my documents and forms. After that I just want to forget about it for a while. lol

Hope all our October interviewees bring home the PINK!

Quick question though..
I have an NBI clearance but it's a "seawoman's" NBI clearance since I was supposed to work as a crew purser aboard a luxury cruise ship a few months ago but I turned down the job.
Do I just renew it and tell them to give me a different type or am I required to repeat the entire process?
Thanks!

Congratulations!

Your post is very informative. I need to know these info as I am planning to get my NBI clearance and have the medical exam in SLMEC soon. Are food and drinks allowed inside SLMEC clinic? Im thinking of bringing bottled water and food (maybe cookies) with me when I go there.

I believe you're allowed to bring food and beverage as long as it's in your bag though you shouldn't eat or drink anything 8 hours prior to the blood test. biggrin.gif
When do you intend to get yours? I'll get mine next week! The Taft branch since my cousin works there. Harhar.

Bring your old NBI Clearance so they can scan it for your fingerprints on file. But you will pay a new fee for the new purpose. No need to fill up a form, I'd think. How long ago did you get one?

No food or drinks allowed in the clinic, they will check your bags. I saw people sneak in candy and stuff but eat very discreetly. For certain parts of the process you can step outside and have a snack across the street. I would forego eating at least until after they finish all your lab work on the 1st day.

Congratulations!

Your post is very informative. I need to know these info as I am planning to get my NBI clearance and have the medical exam in SLMEC soon. Are food and drinks allowed inside SLMEC clinic? Im thinking of bringing bottled water and food (maybe cookies) with me when I go there.


I believe you're allowed to bring food and beverage as long as it's in your bag though you shouldn't eat or drink anything 8 hours prior to the blood test. biggrin.gif
When do you intend to get yours? I'll get mine next week! The Taft branch since my cousin works there. Harhar.



Thanks, Lady AA! smile.gif

Thanks guys. smile.gif

I tell you, I really lost my sense of humor after waiting so long. But when it was over and I heard my husband's sympathetic voice on the phone, I felt much better.

This weekend I am organizing all my documents and forms. After that I just want to forget about it for a while. lol

Hope all our October interviewees bring home the PINK!

God bless us all. innocent.gif



Hi! I am very happy about the result of your medical. I know you will bring home the PINK!



I got one a year ago. My cousin has a runner that can do the paperwork for me so I just have to be in her office and wait. Okay then, thank you. I have to ransack my room for my old NBI clearance.. LOL.
Yeah, you shouldn't ingest anything before the medical exam because of the lab tests.

Congratulations! smile.gif
