Hi, thank you for quoting my query and giving an overview of the process, though, yung question ko po, What document should I need to claim my 15 points from my relative sponsor?
Like, what should should I do to prove that my relative sponsor is eligible for the 491 Family Sponsored?
Joined: Feb 02, 2019
hi, sorry this is out of curiosity, what would be the application status if you have a CO na po? kasi once you submit it na po the application status will be received, will it be the same?
thank you po
