When applying for a parent I usually fill out the form that was recommended above and also attach copies of the birth certificates of my sibling and I who live here.

When I applied for TV600 for my mom, I just used the Form 54 but did not include birth certificates as suggested by @maguero... no questions naman.

May softcopies kasi kami ng birth certificates namin ng kapatid ko because we submitter these before nung nag-apply kami sa GSM visas namin, kaya lagi namin inaattach sa visa applications ng mom namin. @cucci mentioned na pwede naman wag isama if you don't have this on hand.

Hi everyone! I am currently working on my Father in law's tourist visa. Alam nyo naman uso sa pinas ang may Senior, added to their name once magkaroon sila ng Jr na anak. Ang question ko is, should I say na may change of name yung father in law ko? Yung passport nya is based on his birth certificate (walang Sr) pero all his official ID's (SSS and Driver License) may SR.

Other names / spellings
Is this applicant currently, or have they ever been known by any other names?
YES

Is this correct? Then explain ko na lang na same name sila ng son nya JR kaya he became senior.

Anyone encountered the same dilemma?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi po! Will there be a problem at immigration if mag enter sa Oz with tourist visa while may nakasubmit na EOI?

mariem · March 2023

I don't think there will be a problem, expression of interest pa lang naman eh.

Wala naman na issue since deceased naman na ang dad mo so no need to prove that any relationship ni mom mo.

Not traveling pero in my experience, puro oldies ang majority of my co-passengers when I flew from Manila, mga returning residents—all helpful and open in true Pinoy spirit! Hehe. May mga umangkop sakin sa airport (pinasingit ako sa mahabang immigration line lol) at tinulungan ako dun sa customs.

Kung wala lang makasama Mama mo, advice mo na lang sya na makipag-chikahan sa mga ka-boarding gate or sa katabi nya sa flight 😁

angelxx · April 2023

Hi Guys , ano po ba e ipakita sa immigration before the flight? Please help para Hindi ma offload c mama lol uso na ngayon ang offloadan sa airport. What are the necessary requirements po ba aside sa passport at visa? ?

Employed ba si Mama mo? If yes, company ID. Hahanapin yan. Ang necessary lang ay passport at visa. Don't offer other requirements unless asked or hanapan.

Also have printouts or digital proofs of return flight, hotel booking (if meron), and itinerary. Just have them ready onhand pero 'wag siya mismo magpresent. If may invitation letter, print that out na rin. Ready ang address ng pagsstay-an.

Have e-travel and vaxcert ready na rin. Kapag hanapan sya ng yearbook, tanungin nya kamo anong relevance nun 😆 And if well-traveled Mama mo, she can always respond "Never naman akong hinanapan ng ganyan in my past travels". 🙂

Pwede naman as long as they can prove they have an incentive to go home at the end of their trip. Wala naman show money per se for a tourist visa. They should either show that they have a source of income/funds & they have enough money to cover their trip or you can attach a letter to the application saying you will shoulder all of their expenses while they're here.

Cebu to Manila is considered as Domestic flight despite na connecting flight si Mama mo. The check in staff will ask details pa din like current visa upon check-in pero sa Manila is where IO officers are means more questions, and stamp your passport to go.
Please please help your Mama to recognise her bag, may palatandaan, etc.
May kasabayan ako na 75 years old. Nakalimutan niya yong bag niya anong palatandaan. Kami nalang natira sa carousel. LOL.
There are helpful fellow Filos naman ask her to have a convo, mas madali if marunong si Mama mag tagalog din.. Mas madali makipag commu.
