Hi guys,

I know for a fact that the CFO required the participants for Peer Counseling to make a reservation 5 days before the schedule date of the seminar.( it was based on their website).

I intend to make a reservation for CFO Peer counseling of my two children. I checked the website of CFO and clicked online reservation. I was required to sign up which I did. I was asked for user email and password which i gave.

After which I sign in to make the online reservation. I was asked for my user name and password. How can I gave my username when I was not asked for such when i sign up. I tried my luck, by typing the email address I typed when I sign up and my password, ad as expected it says "your username and password do not match".

I called the CFO several times, but either the number is busy or nobody is answering at all. Even the operators are all busy.

So here, I am confused on how to make the reservation for Peer Counseling for my 2 children.

Please to those who have make a reservation for Peer Counseling with the CFO, I need help on how to make the reservation.

Your help is very much appreciated.

I signed up with CFO to see how it works and I was able to log-in. After I created my account, they sent me the following email:

Your Login E-mail: xxxxxxx@yahoo.com

Your Password: xxxxxxx

Click the link to redirect you to start your On-line Reservation! http://reservation.cfo.gov.ph

I logged in using the "log-in email" as username and then the password afterwhich the next window opened up the registration page.

I agree, St. Mary's in Katipunan is so much easier to deal with, no appointments needed, you can walk-in anytime during their business hours. They have a CFO Satellite office at the back so you can get your CFO Stickers and Certificates of Attendance the same day (basta you have your visa with you already...or else they will ask you to return when you have the visa).

I think, theres no need for you to register or make a reservation. I just called St. Mary's last week, and was told that you can come anytime from Monday to Friday (they have time skeds anyway =)

Thanks for the reply.The one conducted by St Mary's and PRISM is the guidance and counseling and not peer counseling. That one does not require reservation. The peer counseling is conducted by CFO and it requires reservation.

Anyway, I was finally able to make a reservation for my 2 children.The numbers they posted on the website for peer counseling reservation is so busy and if it rings but nobody answers. I was not able to get through for 2 days. It was an email to pdosreserve@gov.ph.com that finally worked and at last I received a confirmation.

Hi,

What i was referring to in my post is Peer Counseling which is intended for 13-19 years old and who are not partners nor spouses of foreign nationals.

St Mary's and PRISM are NGOs accredited by CFO to conduct guidance and counseling to spouses and partners of foreign nationals. The guidance and counseling is conducted by these two agencies while the Peer Counseling is conducted by the CFO and reservation is required.

Anyway, thanks for the reply.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.Good for you it works. But after several attempts before I made the original post, I no longer try it.

By the way, last year, I was able to make an online reservation for peer counseling. It worked! but then the other day, I tried to make one and it didnt work for me at all.

This time, that online reservation box in the website of CFO didnt work for me at all. I did receive a reply that they will send to my email but i never received any in my email. My fiance even signed up but same didnt work for him.The other day, I sent an email to the CFO about what happened but so far, I just received an info that they received my email. but no reply as to my inquiry.

I made several attempts to call their reservation numbers but no avail. I sent an email to the site inquiry but no reply. I even called the chairman's office which gave me the same numbers i was calling,but I told her I need the services of their office and the numbers they gave do not answer the calls and that i do not receive any replies from the email i sent.

Finally, i send an email to pdosreserve@cfo.gov.ph (after I remember reading abt it last year) asking for a reservation for my children. I did not fill out any reservation form at all. I just included in my email all the related information which I think they might need. And at last, I received a confirmation!!

It always like pulling a tooth when getting a reply from government offices.

Whew!! what a relief. Glad i got a confirmation for my children.

There's no need for reservation. Don't go there in a busy day and time like Monday morning. I went Tuesday afternoon and was the only one being interviewed. They didn't even make me watch videos and lectures.
