Nagpost yung kaklase ko sa chat window kanina. Yung NBI nya kasi ay "No Criminal Record". Pero nung kumuha sya dati ng NBI tapos kumuha sya ng explanation, ang nakalagay ay wala naman daw case na na-file sa kanya as in clean record naman.
May kaso po ba ito kung mag apply sya sa Australia? Sabi ko din sa kanya mag post or gawa ng account dito para mas madali buhay ko hahahaha.

Ok yung online appointment facility nila. I highly recommend it especially if malapit or kaya nyo naman pumunta sa main office nila sa UN Avenue, Taft. Currently kasi dun pa lang meron nun online facility. Ok din na dito kumuha ng NBI clearance if sa St. Luke's Extension Clinic (Bocobo, Ermita) kayo papamedical kasi walking distance lang to NBI office. Kaya ginawa namin morning yung medical namin then afternoon sa NBI naman.
Ang bilis namin natapos sa NBI last Thursday, 4pm yung booked appointment namin. We arrived there mga 3:40pm pero exactly 4pm tapos na kami. The hassle is hindi agad namin nakuha yung printout. We had to go back after 3 working days pa which is today. I just authorized my husband to claim it on my behalf since mas malapit office nya dun. Nun nagpunta sya this afternoon, dumiretso sya sa Releasing Section kasi yun ang nakalagay dun sa receipt namin. Pero sinabi sa kanya nung teller na sa Quality Control (QC) daw muna kasi may hit pareho name namin. He went through a short interview and pina-sign sya ng Affidavit of Denial or yung sworn statement na hindi siya yung may criminal record. I was required to do the same kaya sinabi nung NBI officer kay hubby na kelangan ko daw ng personal appearance kaya tinawagan nya ko na kelangan ko daw pumunta bukas. Anyway, after sa QC, sa Releasing Section na ulit siya pinapunta but this time, hubby approached a different teller and pareho nya naiabot yung receipt namin. Naprint yung NBI nya and what's weird is na-print na din yung sakin and it says "no record on file". Kaya at this moment, I'm thinking if I still need to make a personal appearance to sign the Affidavit of Denial.
Anyway, if you will opt for the online appointment, simply follow the instruction here: http://www.nbi.gov.ph/online_application.html. Tips ko:
1. Pag nagbayad kayo through Globe Payment Center, keep the receipt. Hindi yun nakalagay dun sa instruction pero hiningi nila samin. Buti na lang dala ko yun. If GCash naman ang payment, do not delete the SMS acknowledgment baka yun naman ang hingin nila.
2. Pa-book kayo ng mid to end of the week na and late afternoon na. Wala na masyadong mga applicants, nag-uwian na din mga NBI officers. Haha! Joke lang.

I suggest mag e-clearance na rin kayo pagkukuha kayo ng NBI clearance nyo... lalagpasan nyo lahat ng nakapila sa baba, deretso 4th floor tapos in a few minutes uuwi na agad kayo, pag wala kayong hit pede pa kayo dumiretso agad sa releasing at makukuha nyo na ang clearance nyo...
sa Friday ko pa makukuha yung samen, authorization letter na lang dadalhin ko kay misis para ako na lang mag-leave...
sana magawa ko yung ginawa ng hubby ni JClem if ever may hit kami, mahirap kasi mag-absent ang misis ko e, katakot takot na paliwanag pa hehehehe...
