CFO no longer collecting fees.

Apparently????  CFO is no longer charging the P400 fee?????

It says they are still charging the courier fee for delivery of the sticker.  Which is the real irony since we,  like many, had to pay P117 specifically for LBC to deliver the certificate to our chosen address and as expected, nothing has been delivered to this day.

And they never send the certificate. So still a rip-off

I thought they were doing an electronic sticker.. 

Well yes they are doing electronic stickers by e-mail.  But they still charge P117 for courier delivery of a physical sticker.  They just don't actually deliver it.

Four months for us and wala.  No sign of any sticker and her address has been continuously occupied.  We'll probably go back to visit in a few months and she can try calling her counselor or something then.  It would be nice to have the actual sticker since the e-certificate has an expiration date and you never know when she might get some hotshot IO when trying to leave to go back home.

My wife completed CFO on 8/9/21 and we received the sticker on 12/29/21. So you may still get it soon :)

Once she has a green card to show, she won't need the CFO sticker.

Finally done.
