i think it will be harder, especially for those who live far from Manila. i am from Laguna so I have to be there very early to make sure I get a slot, whereas if I have prior reservation, I just need to be there 30 minutes before to complete the registration.

Same here.. My hubby has to travel 6 hours to manila to attend cfo seminar and as there is no reservation anymore he really has to be there early

Hello everyone,

Question lang po regarding CFO/PDOS thing...I just received my visa in manila and I am currently here in UAE. Do I need to attend to this CFO/PDOS thing even I am already here in UAE? Can I just go directly from here or do I need to go back to manila and fly from there?

Appreciate your replies... Thank you. more power!

Wow,....so I've been studying and reading this site and all sorts of forms to fill for a month now, everyday, hours a day.....and I've only heard of this now.

Can someone please provide me information about this?

I am hoping to bring my partner to Canada when/if our application is accepted. Once it's accepted will we have to go through this procedure also?

I thought once she has the visa if she shows up at the airport as long as she has a Canadian PR Visa she would be allowed to leave?

If your partner is in the Philippines then she is required to attend the counseling at the CFO. After the counseling, a CFO sticker will be affixed to her passport as proof that she fulfilled this requirement. At the NAIA/airport, when she passes through the Bureau of Immigration counter they will check her declaration form and if her passport has this sticker. If there's no sticker, she will not be allowed to board her flight/plane.

It will only take a day at the most, it's purpose mainly is to register Filipinos who are emigrating.

hello guys

i just want to ask if "Guidance and Counselling Certificate" from CFO is equivalent to PDOS?

my wife did the seminar and got the certificate before we got married because i am a canadian citizen. my wife has no visa yet when she did the seminar and she was instructed to go back when she get the visa to get the "sticker"

my question is does she still need to do PDOS? or is that the same of what she already got?

thank you so much for any replies.
