These are OLD interviews but I doubt if much has changed for CFO. For one! If you are under 24 you may need parental consent.

Before you go to CFO seminar, make sure there is no type-o on your K1 visa sticker. If there are type-o, go back to the US Consulate for annotation regarding the type-o.

What is pre-departure registration?

Pre-departure registration is a process which generates an information resource on Filipino emigrants, which in turn, provides accurate reference for policy formulation and program development. It is a requirement to all Filipino emigrants or those leaving the country to settle permanently abroad.

What are the requirements for registration?

Filipino emigrants are required to present the following documents for registration:

Original valid passport

Original and photocopy of visa

One (1) 2x2 or passport-size photograph

One (1) valid identification card with photograph*

[Haarp425 26]

i dont get what u mean about it?

I use type-o = Typographical error

So, I will rephrase what I said.

Before you go to CFO seminar, make sure there is no typographical error on your K1 visa sticker. If there are typographical errors, go back to the US Consulate for annotation regarding the typographical errors.

Hello there, I attended the CFO seminar in SMEF-COW just last week, though my purpose is not yet for the sticker I'll get from CFO for the immigration checking etc. for me it's pass-porting purpose since I'm married and I wanna use my husband's name on my passport and it's pretty much the same anyway coz while in the seminar I'm with some people already having flight schedule on that day and they need that sticker from CFO, oh, he's on fiancee visa too, the procedure is very very simple, you just have to listen and write infos.they'll ask about you and your fiancee and true there will be one on one interview by the counselor but it's simple too, you can manage it and I only gave them a 2 copies of the original documents, if you have a visa ready you should give the copies of the following:

Original passport

original CFO guidance & counseling( you need to attend coz you won't get the sticker without the cert. you'll receive 2 but they need the 1 with green color)

1 photocopy of visa

1 photocopy of immigrant data summary(IDS) for US bound registrants

duly completed emigrant reg. form( CFO)

Ah, just go to any of CFO accredited office (PRISM or SMEF-COW)

I paid, 250 for reg. and 400 for my green cert. not yet sure for the sticker if you still need to pay. Better check the CFO website (www.cfo.gov.ph)if you have more questions, you don't have any problem as long as you have all the documents ready make sure to bring 2 copy sets of all the said requirements and bring all the original with you for assurance. And after receiving the cert. and sticker it's a must to double check the spelling of your name. Good luck.

I believe K1 visa holders are not required to have a copy of the Immigrant Data Summary as they are not an immigrant.
