Commission on Filipinos Overseas

jamee

Hi everyone,

May I ask if you registered with the Commission on Filipinos Overseas (CFO) bago kayo umalis ng Philippines? We have just been granted a PR visa (yay) and we're migrating to Adelaide sa July. Nung bumibili na kami ng ticket, sinabihan kami ng airline na magregister muna sa COF kasi hindi daw kami paaalisin ng Bureau of Immigrations natin kung wala kaming CFO sticker sa passport. Here's their site:

Tanong ko lang po sana if you all had to do this?

Thank you very much!
Jamee
