My wife and I are curious about this:

Since she has to hand over her passport during the immigration interview and then wait for the visa and passport to be sent to her, how does she fly home?

Is she allowed to fly from Manila to Cebu without her passport?

Thanks for helping.

We have our marriage certificate, NBI clearance, NSO birth certificate, guidance and counseling certificate from attending the CFO program.

I really don't have knowledge about it but what u can do is ask the ticketing office or airline company about your concern. All i know is that i saw one scene at Mactan Airport while i was in the check in counter about a passenger being hold because he cannot present an ID..

NBI clearance should be enough but like i said asked them first to be sure.

I had my wife get a postal ID, voters registration, etc...all the photos ID's we could get for her. Your wife will need a photo ID of some sort to get on the plane from Manila to Cebu. (My wife is also from Cebu) Your wife would have to have presented some form of photo ID to obtain her passport and take her CFO class? I would suggest making a copy of her passport, each and every page including the cover and back just in case. I have heard rumor that there are "fixers" across the street of the CEBU Airport that can make up an ID almost instantly that can be used for flight. What a coincidence that they are across the street from the airport? I heard the airport ticket counter agent telling a Filipina in line in front of me that she had to have a photo ID and all she had to do was go across the street to "her uncles" place and get an ID. This sounds like the Philippines I have grown to love but I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND buying any kind of ID from a fixer. My wife was all over Cebu applying for and getting every legitimate ID she could get. I think she has 4 or 5 picture IDs at this point, including her Philippines drivers license. Yes, she actually took the drivers course and tests. Of course for a fee you can bypass all of that.... But yes I agree the best advice at this point is to talk to the people at the airport and perhaps they can help you by verifying her passport or something before you leave for Manila. Good luck.

David & Zoila, i guess he mentioned that his wife has NSO birth certificate, marriage certificate, NBI and guidance counselling certificate from CFO, so i guess they were done with CFO which i am curious what do the CFO asked as an identification if she doesn't have any but passport..I guess this should be posted on CFO ID updates huh?

This is a good question, also for those in Europe. My fiancé is Danish but has to go to Sweden for his interview. Will not having a passport affect his travel back to DK?

My husband is from Kosovo but needed to travel to Macedonia for his visa. I emailed the embassy and they said the would give his passport back to him so he could travel and they would let him know when his visa was ready. As it turned out, he had an appointment to bring additional documents and they issued his visa in 4 hours, while he waited.
