cfo/passport ?

[Riggs 0]

hi all ,

I just looked at the cfo webite in the philippines ands I am once again confused:

1. does my wife have to attend the CFO guidance and counseling seminar and the Pre-Departure Orientation Seminar or just one of them?

2. also, when should she do the seminar befoe she gets her passport or after? Should she list tourist when applying for passport and do seminar later?

3. is ther a benfit to either doingthe seminar while getting the passport or after? my wife lives in Bislig and is along wahy from manila or cebu where the cfo smianrs are given.

Thanks much

Steve

hi steve,

www.cfo.gov

She needs to attend CFO seminar and dont worry it won't take so long. you better let her go to Manila and attend the class, since she will have an interview at Manila Embassy for visa. Did she get passport already? CFO cerificate is one of the requirements in applying passport especially to those who apply K1 or whatever visa is it... that was I did before. I took a seminar class then after I got my CFO cert, I applied my passport, then when I got my visa I went to CFO office and they put sticker on my passport. You don't need to pay the CFO sticker, they will just ask ur wife's CFO cert and then they will put sticker on it.

Hope this gives u a little help...

Goodluck to both of u. God bless

You need the CFO certificate to update the marital status of your wife's passport.

this is a rule for all filipinos married to foreigners.

you only need to attend the seminar once... but may have to go back when she gets the Visa for the sticker.

good luck!

1. if she has already passport bfore and she will renewing only her passport due to changing her surname she dont need CFO. ( tell to officer how come u need CFO wer they gonna stamp the cfo aprrove ) that was i sad hahaha

2. if she is new passport she needs to get CFO in available site seminar in her area. CEBU has CFO seminar site ( my friend is from iligan he seminar in CEBU)

3. she dont need to list applying tuorist coz he applying CR1. she's a wife of US citizen not a fiance -.-

4. if ever the DFA ask for CFO (new passport) go take seminar and bring 2x2 picture and some requirements u will get a letter that she attend seminar.
