And if you spent $5 and do it while there and don't need them you are out what... $5 ?

Jeez! Lot of babbling about an ounce of prevention! :blink:

Preventing what exactly? :rolleyes:

I make copies for less than a penny apiece in the comfort of my own home. :)

Regan, to sum it up, you can go either way. you can get extra copies which you may or may not need. if you don't get extra copies and a sitution arises where one is needed, it can be ordered from the ecensus website. you'll just have to wait a few weeks for it to arrive. no need to sweat over this one.

This is good advice.

My Fiancee got 4 copies of her Birth Certificate for P560 (~$14) at NSO Baguio last week. She really didn't like having to pay for "extra' copies, especially since she was going to SM Baguio afterward and only brought P4000 for everything. I think she ended up having to put something back... :P

Can't make a copy for a penny in your home if you don't have an original.... :wacko:

as far as for immigration purposes of exiting the Philippines and entering the USA, it looks like you are set to go.

Is your child registered with the CFO? I believe it's required.

from my understanding, I don't believe so. the son is a USC, who will be leaving Philippines with a US Passport. perhaps someone with direct experince will chime in.

Roy..That's a good point...his son might be a U.S. citizen. If that's the case, I'm not sure if he needs to be registered at the CFO.
