CFO Scheduling

 Share

Hello everyone,

 

Trying to figure out this last hurdle. I was hoping to schedule a CFO appointment for my fiance but the system requires a visa number. So it will have to wait until she actually has the visa despite some posts suggesting it's possible to schedule without. I am wondering though, what is the current difficulty in getting an appointment, in Davao or Cebu? If I understand correctly they only offer Monday sessions at those locations. If anyone has updated information on how hard it is to get an appointment, I'd be extremely grateful. Also, is the purely online CFO available still?

 

Thank you so much.

We just did Jaycel's session in Cebu a few weeks ago and we were able to schedule one within a week of getting her visa. They also had sessions available every weekday except Fridays (and holidays of course).

In the past it was possible to complete CFO without an actual visa on hand. Historical posts may be referring to that.  Currently, CFO seems quite strict that an applicant must have an actual physical visa on hand to schedule CFO.  The upside is that there no  longer seems to be any problems getting CFO scheduled in the short term immediate future once someone does actually have a visa.
