I haven't landed yet but I think I can answer your question.

It would be wise to have the Guidance and Counselling while waiting for the visa if your wife lives close to any of these CFO branches: Manila, Cebu and Davao. Unfortunately you said she lives far from the the first two. How about Davao? Still far?

If so, then just have the Counselling a day or two prior to departure. That would save time and money. There are 2 separate places here in Metro Manila where she can attend: CFO-Taft Avenue in front of De Lassalle University and walking distance from LRT Vito Cruz station; and the other is PRISM-Quezon City.

I'm more familiar with CFO-Taft since I had done mine there and I live close to that place. Your wife can just go there any day (Monday to Friday)8am to 2:30pm. I went there at 10:40am, had the forms filled out and submitted my requirements(photocopy of the following:marriage certificate, birth certificate, Government issued I'd). But was asked to go back at 1pm since I was late at the 10:30am batch.If you want to have it early, then tell her to go at 8am.

PRISM-Quezon City is the one who has the every Tuesday and Friday only schedule.

So I think, it would be more flexible and convenient to go at CFO Taft. Aside from that, it's only 20minutes from the airport.

Thank you and God bless

I agree with you.

I will discuss this with her tomorrow.

Super safe po sa BPI-main sure na sure kang di madadaya at saka maganda yung service mabilis. Ang ginagawa ko po kasi bago ng day ng flight ko, bili ako ng dollar dun para di na hassle pag nasa airport pa ako at naghahanap ng money changer. 1ride lang po kasi ang BPI main from my place.

Sa experience ko din in one of my trips, nagpapalit ako sa airport sa country na pinuntahan ko. And then nagpapalit din sa money changer sa labas ng airport. Napansin ko lang na mas maganda palitan sa money changer sa labas kesa sa loob po ng airport nila.

Sa iba po dito, my idea po ba kayo pwedeng ishare?at the same time anyone po here who knows which one is better sa bank or sa airport? Heheheh thank you.

Thanks Mrsh! As of this date, mas mura ung selling sa PNB (43) compared s BPI (46). Sana bumaba pa this week. sayang dun! ahahah

what letter yung sa AOR/PPR ba to? meaning niyan eh may 45/90 days ka to complete yung request nilang additional doc. pag lumagpas na yung days na binigay nila lalagpasan nila application mo and mag wawait ka nanaman na i contact ng embassy ulit.

receipt number and client id (sponsor) = info ni sponsor
file number and client id (uci) = info ni applicant

try mo check ung bday year baka nag kakamali ka or ung country or baka nalalagyan mo ng space dapat wala.
