Sa birth certificate naman, yung akin at hubby luma na din mga 2007 pa pero all were NSO copies yung attachment pa ng birth cert ko was dated 2009 and they accepted it. Even yung detailed COE ko sa isang relevant occupation sa previous employer ko was dated Oct 2015 din di na ko kumuha ng bago pero okay naman nagrant kami.
Hope maging okay processing mo. goodluck!
