Affidavit of Support

Guys tanong ko lang, yung ate kasi ng bestfriend ko is OFW then uuwi siya dito sa bansa sa October at the same time nagpa-book siya mg ticket for us papuntang HK. Everything will be funded by her. Makakalusot kaya ako sa immigration? Hindi naman ako relative, wala din akong work and i'm 22 years old. First time traveller pa and just in case, pwede ba ako magpagawa mg affidavit of support tapos yung ate niya ilalagay ko? Thanks!

re: NEED HELP

Better to check with POEA muna kasi alam ko may attendan kang seminar and may Certificate na ibibigay sayo to prove na legal yung working visa mo. Ipapakita mo yung certificate na yun sa IO.

If you have a working visa you can go directly to the nearest POEA office in your Area to process your working visa.

OEC from DOLE - True story Sec. Bello (Just sharing)

Hello mga kapwa OFW/katraveller,

Gusto ko lang ishare yung nangyari sa GF ko yesterday sa DOLE. She was there to ask for Sec. Bello's signature for OEC. My GF will work in Bangkok as IT consultant (direct hired). She provided all the requirements needed in POEA until this signature of Sec. Bello comes along.

Here comes the story.... Nasa 15 silang nasa opisina kahapon, patiently waiting all day for Sec. Bello to meet them and their OEC sign one by one. The 12 people has been signed and My GF and the other 2 has not been signed.

My GF(IT consultant in BKK), teacher (in korea), carpenter (canada). They are all direct hired. Hindi pinirmahan ni Sec. Bello and kanilang OEC. Dahil sya daw ay hindi convinced sa mga Sweldo nila. Sabi ni Sec sa GF ko,"5 yrs kalang, IT ka, ganito kalaki sweldo mo? hindi ako convinced, kelangan ko tong iverify".. at same ang sinabi niya sa 2 pang hindi pinirmahan, teacher and carpenter,, nakakaawa ang carpenter ,, dahil sinasabi ni sec bello, bakit ganito sweldo mo? karpintero kalang,, ako lawyer, ang tagal ko na, hindi ako sumweldo ng ganito. hindi ako convinced...

Same with the teacher, "teacher kalang ganito sweldo mo.. bla bla bla"

isa lang ang sinagot niyaaaaaaaa,, iveverify nia sa POLO at dahil hnd siya convinced.

Dahil sa pagkadismaya,, lahat sila ay may kanya kanyang sagot kay sec.(pinilit nilang mag explain). My GF told him na "Sir,. to tell you the truth, nagresign ako sa company, nasa ganito na kalaki ang sweldo ko,, at nasa IT industry ako,, may iba pong mga IT nasa 250k-300k ang sweldo per month sa SG at kasing level ko lang,, ano pong mali doon?, contractor po itong inapplyan ko at malaking oil industry ang client kaya afford po nila, pinaghirapan ko po makuha ang opportunity nato,, flight ko na po ngayon weekend ,, resigned na po ako at kelangan ko bumuhay ng pamilya...bla bla.. Until.. my GF said the word "unfair".. Unfair naman po kung ssabhin niyo dapat di kami sumweldo ng ganitong kalaki..(hindi pa tapos magsalita,,nagalit na si sec).

" Don't tell me na unfair ako, di ako convinced.. kelangan ko to iverify.. wag nio kong pinapangunahan,, karpintero kalang, teacher kalang,, ganito sweldo mo? ververify ko to.. at hindi ko alam kung kelan ko mappirmahan to,, wag nio sabhin sakin na flight nio na dahil wala akong pakielam." galit daw si sec at nakasigaw,.. talagang matatameme ka kapag ikaw kaharap dahil alam mong mataas sya.. Naiiyak nadaw ung teacher na magwwork sa korea..

SAbay tanong ni sec "Bat kayo may flight na?"

Sabi ng GF ko at ng teacher, sir.. kasi po requirements sa VISA at sa POEA...

(naiinis ako bakit di alam ng DOLE ang proseso)

sinubukan pa nilang mag explain kay sec. bello.. tulad ng ,," sir kung gusto nio,, papakita ko po yung current payslip ko ngayon pero malaman nio na 6digits napo sweldo ko dito palang"..

Sabi ni sec " wala akong kelangan sa inyo,, ako mag vverify neto,, wala ako kelangan na details .. bla bla bla.."

wala silang nagawa... kundi umuwi ng luhaan at mag bakasakali at maghintay kung kelan O kung mappirmahan ba talaga ang kanilang OEC..

(Gusto ko lang ilabas ang sama ng loob ko sa ating proseso..bakit ganoon satin? unang una,, sige naiintindihan ko,, ivverify mo dahil baka sakaling malaki ang sweldo sa papel pero di naman papaswelduhin ng employer ng ganon talaga, which is nangyyari sa ibang bansa ayon sa mga news nappanuod ko,, tulad ng middle east.. pero naman,, corporate world ung papasukan ng GF ko.. at since nasa DOLE ka,, alam mo dapat ung trend ng mga industry,, pag dating sa swelduhan ng mga employees,, tama bako mga ka OFW? ,, sabi pa niya na ivverify niya? ni wala syang pinanghawakan at sinabi man lang,, na pending to sakin,, mag wait kayo hanggang ganitong araw.. WALA.. para kang iniwan sa ere.. ano nalang ssabihin ng company na inplayan nila sa ibang bansa? sa katunayan,, nireffer ko ang aking GF dito sa bangkok, same company... at alam ko kapag vinerify man nia,, siguradong pasado eh.. kaso di namin alam kung ivverify talaga o HINDI.. kasi parang wala syang pakiealam.. sobrang panget ng proseso natin.. naaawa ako sa mga tao na gusto mangarap.. bat haharangan ng ganong kahigpit,, di ba niya naisip na pwedeng umatras ang mga employer/company? di man lang nia cinonsider na wlang trabaho na yung tao na naghhintay sa kanya..

.. sobrang nakakadismaya mga ka kaOFW/traveller... this is a true story.. kahit ako nagulat,, di ko alam na ganon mag salita si sec bello na iddown ka niya,, "karpintero kalang ! teacher kalang! lawyer ako! tapos ganito sweldo mo?" WTf....

re: re: re: 10,000 Baht as Proof?

Reply to @Erv1986:

Based po kase sa news baht po kase ang hahanapin daw. Pero when I travelled to Thailand, USD po ang dala ko then after ma-stamp ng passport ko andun na po yung money changers sa may baggage area pinapalitan ko. That time po ang dala ko is $400 plus may Peso pa akong dala. That is before pa yung sinasabi sa news na nabasa ko na hahanapan daw ng IO sa Thailand yung tourist ng 20,000 baht.

re: re: 10,000 Baht as Proof?

Dapat po talaga Baht ang currency or pwedi dollars? How much po ang minimum amount na pwedi ma carry cash during travel?

Picture of Erv1986

re: re: 10,000 Baht as Proof?

Ah so dapat pala before sa departure magpa change na ako nang money at mag withdraw. Ngayon ko lang kasi nalaman yan. Hindi ko alam na CASH talaga hahanapin nila

10,000 Baht as Proof?

Hello,

I have read that immigration in Thailand is going to look for 10,000 Baht "CASH" as proof of funds per person.Is that true? Is it possible to withdraw money before going to Thailand immigration? Thanks

Re paano ba

Gusto rin kitang intindihin pero natry mo na bang maglakad sa poea ngayon? As in ngayong mga panahon na ito? Sino ba ang gugustong magbayad? Wala ka siguro sa posisyong sabihan ako ng tamad. Pero kung ang kalaban mo oras para mahabol mo ung visa na dapat hindi macancel para sa iyo, sa bagal ng gobyerno mawawala na ang offer sayo sa paglalakad pa lang ng mga dokumentong sinasabi mo.

Picture of

re: Paano ba

Gusto kong intindihin yung katwiran mo kaso sobrang babaw. Nagtatrabaho ako sa ibang bansa. Inayos ko lahat ng legal documents ko dito. Halos nasa 15k lang nagastos ko kasama na pamasahe at pagkain. Hindi katwiran yung hindi maibigay yung hinihingi kasi looking at your argument mukhang tamad ka lang magasikaso. Wala namang problema sa paghahanap ng trabaho sa ibang bansa eh. Ang point lang namin dumaan kayo sa tamang proseso at magapply sa tamang ahensya. Para sainyo din naman yan para maayos ang record niyo at malakas ang kapit sa gobyerno kung sakaling magkaproblema. Kasi kung kayo sa sarili niyo di kayo marunong sumunod sa tama asahan niyong makakarma din kayo dyan sa pamamagitan ng ibang bagay. Hindi kayo magiging sa successful sa paggawa ng mali guys always remember that.

Only in the Philippines...

That's so true! This matter should be raised directly to President Duterte, I think he and he alone can solve this problem. Remember that 'tanim bala' issue, it was solved when brought to his attention. This has been going on ever since I can remember and no president have ever solved it. The right to travel is one of the rights of every person and no one should take that away from us!

Picture of

Paano ba

May point ka naman. Kaya lang iba ang case ngayon. Marami ng hindi talaga marunong sumunod at nadadamay. At yun ang sitwasyon sa ngayon. Kung hindi namin kayang iprovide yung mga hinhingi paano nga naman kami lalabas? May makakatulong ba sa amin? Pinagbbgyan ba tayo ng magandang trabaho dito? Walang choice kumbaga. Kung pagkalusot ko saka ako magbabayad ok pero pag hindi wag na. Hirap kaya kitain ang pera

UAE BOUND, SOLO, UNEMPLOYED

Thank you po. Sana maging okay ang lahat at ndi na ako kwestyunin kc wala ako work dto.

Picture of

Will do...

Yes I still plan to go to Bangkok, and will bear that in mind. Pero magpapalamig muna ako, :) or baka mag-change country, perhaps Indonesia muna before going to Bangkok again.

Picture of

Suggestion

I'm happy din that I was able to uplift your spirit kahit papano. Would you try going to Bangkok again? Last punta ko dun was to watch a concert. Inask ako ng IO about it tapos dun nagfocus conversation naming haha! Why don't you try looking for an event and schedule your flight according to it? Malay mo mas maconvince yung IO na for tourism purposes ka lang talaga. You can just print whatever posters you can find online to prove your claim. Hehe suggestion lang :)

Picture of

So true...

Sana naman, kasi to be honest, it's an experience I'm not sure I can move on from, nakakatrauma talaga s'ya. Sana what happened to your friend the second time, ganon din mangyari sa akin. Actually if I have the resources nga lang sana, I want to go as far as filing a case, but the smarter move would be just to let it go and let karma bite that IO in the a**!

Picture of

Second Immigration Officer

I forgot to mention din nga pala, it was not only the IO in the window desk who asked me questions, she had to refer me to another IO, had me answer a questionnaire in the office near the window desks, and that's where my nightmare began, I think that IO holds a higher position than those who stays at the window desks, he holds the final say whether those referred to him can board their planes or not. And you're right it's really the confidence that matters, it's just that, that was the first time that happened to me, sobrang nabigla ako, it felt humiliating, I also kept on looking at my watch kasi I think that happened 30 minutes my supposed boarding and that f*****g doesn't seem to care!

Picture of

I'm usually very confident...

I'm usually very confident, with my English speaking ability, I'm not boasting but I can say I am a fluent speaker, I was actually answering most of his questions in English but man oh man, that IO really made me lose the confidence in me especially with his tone and the manner of how he spoke, I mean there's a big difference between being a professional who's just doing your job and being just flatout mean and a power-tripper. What others have been saying about IOs are true, so sad I had to find out the hard way. Any idea what would happen to me next time I take on another trip abroad? Do you think they will be as strict to me as I have already a record?

Picture of

Agree ako dun sa comment sa baba haha

Agree ako dun sa sinabi nung isa. Madaming IO mahilig mangpowertrip (paulit ulit na tanong, mabusisi sa documents, paikot ikot tanong) pero yun kasi ang effective way para hulihin if nagsisinungaling ba yung tao. I don't get it bakit ka kakabahan if wala ka namang gagawing mali? I mean hindi mo ba kayang sumagot ng maayos and be confident? Kasi kahit tourist ka talaga pero barok ka magsalita kahit sino magdududa sayo. Siguro bago ka magprepare ng documents mas mabuti kung sarili mo muna ihanda mo. Build your confidence. Learn English and speak it fluently and most importantly, WAG NA WAG KANG MATATAKOT SA IO.

Based on my experience ganito madalas scenario ko sa harap ng IO:

IO: san ka pupunta? (while looking at my ticket and passport)

Me: (name of country)

IO: Sino kasama mo?

Me: I'll be travelling solo po sir/maam

IO: Bakit ka pupunta dun?

Me: I just wanna visit the country's historical sites (I like answering it specifically to my purpose - concerts, tourist attractions, aattend ng event, etc.)

IO: Saan mo nalaman about dyan? (I find it weird kapag tinatanong to pero just answer it anyway)

Me: History Channel (HAHAHAH ODIBA PASOK)

......

IO: (tatak passport and picture time na)

Me: Thank you sir/maam!

Odiba? Basta wag ka lang kabahan. Madalas ako matapat sa IO na masungit kahit anong iwas ko haha pero palagi ko lang iniisip na wala silang magagawa para harangin ako kaya just answer them ng maayos and you'll be fine.

Wag kasi kayo papasindak sa mga IO. Kahit kumpleto kayo sa documents pero kabado kayo sumagot useless lahat yan.

any suggestion what to write on the occupation before handing out the form to the IO. I'm a newly grad kasi and di pa ako nagkakanap ng trabaho.
