    mga kaibigan, tanong lang po.. according to CFO website:

    http://www.cfo.gov.ph/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1301:registration-and-pre-departure-services&catid=110:frequently-asked-questions&Itemid=858

    How can Filipinos residing or working outside the Philippines, and holding immigrant visa or permanent residence status register with CFO? Do they need to return to the Philippines for the registration?

    "Filipinos residing or working outside the Philippines whose immigrant or residence visas were issued abroad may avail of the remote (on-line registration or by facsimile). Only those residing or working outside the Philippines whose immigrant or permanent residence visas are issued abroad may avail of this registration."

    Has anyone tried the online registration?

    @mykdspyk

    this sounds interesting, baka pwede ako mag pa register na while im still outside the Philippines, para pag uwi ko ng Pinas punta na lang ako sa aking scheduled seminar sa CFO.

    ang pagkakaintindi ko magpaparegister ka na lang online, it means you don't need to attend the seminar since you are not in the PH. But then I am not sure that's why I want to hear from someone who have tried it.

    Itinawag ko yan dun sa NAIA office, ang sabi ko PR nako sa Australia pauwi ako at mag-babakasyon. Ang sabi sakin, mag-register na lang sa NAIA 1, tapos ok na, wala pa daw kasi yung online registration. So, yung mga PR na at hindi manggagaling sa pilipinas, pwde pag-uwi na lang kayo mag-register at di nyo na kailangan mag-PDOS.

    Yun eh unless baguhin na naman nila yung rules. Php 400 pala ang fee.

    sure na sure po ba ang no.2?

    marami na rin (like me) ang nag initial entry na sa AU na galing sa ibang bansa..
    so incase na magbakasyon sa pinas.. eh wala ng hassle..

    i think, kung sa records nila eh galing kana sa AU, eh possibleng nag pdos kana before, matagal na, at possibleng iba na ang passport mo ngaun.. so wala silang way para ma-track kung nag PDOS kana or hindi.. lol..
    @lock_code2004 sorry ngayon ko lang nabalikan itong thread na to, yep sure na. Friend ko yung case num2. Ako yung case1 kasi umuwi pa kami. Natanong ko din to sa kanila kasi nag-PDOS na ko since OFW din ako before AU. Ang pinagkaiba lang is yung PDOS for PR's (CFO) iba sa PDOS ng OFW's (POEA). Ngayon in terms of record wala naman sila iba tinignan nung nasa airport yung sticker lang. Sabi naman nung friend ko na case2, kasi may stamp na sila nanggaling na sila sa AU.

    yung case2 pala is yung mga nasa ibang bansa na for initial entry sa AU. Ang hinde ko sure is kung pano kung nag Initial entry ka na, tapos bumalik ka sa say US, tapos umuwi ka pinas. Baka makalusot ka din for case2

    Medyo magulo pero magulo talaga batas natin. :)

    ako naman nag initial entry from outside PH to AU last May 2010 w/o attending CFO. then balik ulit to work as OFW somewhere. finally I decided to resign and migrate to AU. bago nyan umuwi muna ako PH saka ako nag CFO just to avoid hassles sa pagpunta sa AU the second time. nung nsa CFO na ako nakita nmn ng registrar na galing na ako sa AU pero wla nmn sya sinabi na di na kelangan, so ibig sabihin e kelangan? o patay malisya na lng sya.hehe. anyways, ganun na lng para iwas sa kung anuman sa NAIA.

    Guys, any idea kung kailangan pa umattend ng PDOS ang holder ng 457 visa? If needed talaga, PDOS from CFO or PDOS from POEA ang kailangan puntahan? Btw, I'm in Philippines. Need your advise guys... Thanks! :)

    @marc_chrono 457 is working visa ba? Sa POEA yung mga working visa. PDOS @ CFO is only for permanent migrants.

    Hi mga Kaberks,

    Nagseminar kami last September 30. Base sa experience naming mag asawa, madami naman kaming natutunan unlike don sa PDOS para sa OFW. Walang product endorsements, real state, sim cards etc. Specific ang CFO PDOS for migrants especially sa mga pupunta ng Australia/NZ. Medyo bias for OZ ang speaker kasi nga anman mas maraming pedeng idiscuss sa OZ :D. Although mahal pa din sya para sa akin. Kahit ppano me mga nalaman ako. At saka merong absentee voting registartion pagkatapos ng PDOS :D

    Goodluck mga Kaberks!
