  Hello mga kabayan. Umuwi ako ng Pinas last March 2022 under 491 visa, hindi naman ako hinanapan ng OEC. Let them know that you're a temporary resident. Cheers!

  I emailed them, ito ang sagot nila.

  We wish to inform you that the Commission on Filipinos Overseas (CFO) only registers Filipinos leaving the country as:

  1. Emigrants or Permanent Residents Abroad

  2. Spouses, fiances and other partners of foreign nationals or former Filipino citizen or dual citizen

  Registration of Filipinos leaving the country with SKILLED WORK REGIONAL PROVISIONAL SUBCLASS 491 VISA going to Australia is not within the purview of the services of the CFO.
