    @jedh_g i don't know kung unti lang yung tao that time knowing na Saturday kaya mabilis kami pero based on my observation mabilis naman sila. I'm not sure lang for the kids. I think may request for another medical procedure if may Health problem. This link might help you for the requiremnets and procedures http://makati.nhsiphilippines.com/.

    @agrande mate balitaan tayo ha...nakakainip kasi wait pa namin bank loan to pay our visa fees then lodge our visa thru our agent. Dun pa lang daw pwede mabigyan ng medical referral letter. Mabigat din kasi because we are 6 in total.

    @psalms5110 siguro sa congenital related case ko, dala din ako proof of clearance from my cardiologist (though di naman ito big deal kasi di naman ako nagpapalpitate). Sa mga bata naman, may daughter ako na may rheumatic heart case pero may doctor's clearance naman sya. Sana maging ok ang lahat...thanks sa tips!

    @agrande yan din sana plan namin kaso it seemed iba ang advise samin ni migration agent. Pinauuna sa amin now ang NBI. Pagkabayad daw na VISA fee, pwede na sya mag generate ng HAP ID (medical referral letter). OK na rin naman lahat ang documents namin for submission including FORM 80. Sana ma release na bank loan namin para maka simula na ng medical ng entire family. May last payment na professional fee pa kasi kami ni agent. I think, dun na sila mag start kumilos sa lodging process until visa grant.
