Hi po, good pm, would like to ask about my partner's application. we are in a defacto partner visa. may current NBI clearance siya pero family home address niya nakalagay-already submitted sa initial application. ngayon sa s56 nag require ng new nbi clearance kasi na expire na yung nasubmit namin. Nagdeclare kasi kami ng defacto partner claiming na live in kami (sa address ko). upon renewing the nbi clearance, kailangan ba niyang ichange ang address? o same lang po sa previous na nasubmit? Thank you po
