I did! I had my CFO seminar before my medical and interview.

Call CFO office first. Good luck!

Oh yeah, my husband did too before his medical and interview. Once he received his passport with visa after USEM, he then went for the stamping and certification at CFO.

This might sound silly but what is CFO, and do you need this for the K3 visa?

Thanks

No filipino can't leave the country without getting your passport stamped by CFO and attending their Seminars.

Here are more info..
