in lodging VISA application... sa pag aattach ng docs... need ba lahat eh CTC'ed?
And if need na ctc... paano mag delete ng mga naattach mo na? Wala kasing remove/delete function eh. Or attaching the same eh will overwrite the current attached document?
Pa advise naman po.
Thank you.

Katulad sa mga dumaan na or nagsisimula pa lang makikihingi din sana ako ng info about ACS.
Nakita ko na yung details na dapat sa COE at yung workarounds kung walang makuha at yung ctc stamping info by backreading. Salamat sa lahat ng nagbibigay ng information mabuhay kayo hehehe.
Additional question lang po, yung details ba ng projects kailangan pa? Sa COE kasi duties and responsibilities kasi may mga nabasa ako dito na nagdagdag sila ng information about their projects (this is not RPL). Ano po ba yun, separate doc? And how do you assure the integrity kung separate from the COE?
TIA
To our dreams!! Hehehehe
