I have several clarifications re: Form 80: (Apologies if these have been answered already)
1. Question#8 permanent residency rights -> since I'm and OFW, I just tick "No" since working visa meron ako. Tama po ba?
2. Question#14 any national identity documents or numbers -> Shall I include my TIN, SSS and driver's license number?
3. Question#22 Proposed Travel -> Any good answer? Eg. for migration?
4. Question#25 Further Stay -> For migration as well?

Pa-advise naman po sa following items:
1. Questions 31 and 32, required ba na sagutan 'to? Or is it okay to leave it as blank?
3. Question 45, ano po ung country of current residence na ilalagay ko kung ang occupation ng brother ko is seaman?
TIA!

Yung no. 45 di ako masyado sure pero based sa question country of residence should be the country if saan siya resident - which i assume Pinas if wala naman ibang residence rights ang kuya mo sa ibang bansa.

Unemployment includes:
• from date of birth up until first employment
• all gaps/breaks between employment
• all gaps between education.
naguluhan kasi ako, kung wala gaps sa employment at nakapagwork din agad pagkagraduate, ano ilalagay ko sa from date of birth up until first employment? confusing lang kasi. thank you sa makakasagot
sa ngayon nilagay ko lang muna lahat ng naging employers ko.
