Hi everyone!

I would just like to ask what are the seminars that my wife needs to attend to before leaving for the US... does it still include "Pre-Departure Orientation Seminar" (PDOS) along with the guidance and counseling seminar??? OR would the guidance and counseling seminar be enough???

Please help...

Thanks!

The guidance and counseling is part of the PDOS. She needs to take the PDOS at either St. Mary Euphrasia Foundation in Quezon City or PRISM in Taft Ave. She then needs to get a CFO sticker from CFO office. She needs to bring the certificate that she finished the Pre-Departure Orientation Seminar (PDOS). See link below for more info and map to different areas.
