CFO EXIT SEMINAR

[wizzard1663 0]

I could use some help and advice with the things we need to do next, because I just found out about something called the CFO Exit Seminar and it is very confusing. Apparently we can’t just get her Visa delivered and get on an airplane to go back to the States. I have been told by other VJ members that Maria will need her Passport stamped with a sticker by the CFO, proving that she attended the Exit Seminar. I’ve been on the CFO web site and now am more confused.

There seems to be two different programs. One is for Philippine people going overseas to work, and the other is for Fiances and or Spouses. The first one appears to be held in the CFO building in Manila or on Cebu and the other one in a place for the PRISM Program in Manila (Fiance and Spouses seem to go to the PRISM program). The PRISM program seems to cost 250 Pesos, but if I am reading the web site correctly the Fiance still then has to go to the other location to get Verification and the Sticker, and that is another 400 Pesos. The other program at the CFO building appears to be scheduled by appointment at least five days in advance, but the PRISM program appears to be held without a need for appointment. I think she can attend PRISM without an appointment and pay the 250 Pesos, and then go to the CFO building without an appointment (since she is not actually attending a Seminar there). Since the Seminar at the CFO building is by appoinment five days in advance only, I'm worried that after attending the PRISM we then have at least another five day wait to get the Verification at the CFO building. I've got airplane tickets coming up in late June, so I'm worried.

This is so darn confusing. What can you tell me about it?
