Most peeps go to seminar once they have the visa because you will still have to come back just because of the sticker. You don't have the visa yet that's why they didn't give you the sticker.

Happy New Year!

Just give them what they are asking..pictures, right? Did they say you have to pay again for another seminar or just come back when you already have what they are looking for?

You'll get your certificate and sticker once you get your visa.

It certainly is not unheard of for counselors to have an attitude or issues with

a CFO attendee for some reason or another.

i didn't have any complain with CFO attendee at St. Mary Euphrasia Foundation, they were all nice and very friendly.

the only problem is the one-on-one counseling, i'm really surprised someone will think that for 5 years and 3 months is like nothing and making u feel that u dont know what ur doing. :(

From the looks of it, yes she/they can refuse. Number 4 is the 'gotcha' and requirement they can use to refuse you.

So just give it to her, then flip her the middle finger as you walk out of the place.

Requirements for Guidance Counseling

  1. Two (2) valid identification cards (IDs) with photograph;
  2. Duly completed guidance and counseling form to be issued by SMEF-COW upon registration;
  3. If married, certified true copy and photocopy of marriage contract on security paper from the National Statistics Office, or Local Civil Registry Offices; or original and photocopy of marriage contract duly authenticated by the Philippine Embassy/Consulate (if married abroad)
  4. Other documents as may be required by the counselors; and
  5. Payment of P250.00 counseling fee.

She just have an attitude about it. She's not the only one. Me and my fiance got 29yrs gap so I am expecting worse. That's fine. As long as you can satisfy all the needed requirements then you are all good.

You were the attendee. Considering you have a 5 + year relationship, the counselor

does seem very silly to question your relationahip. I'm sure she has seen plenty of

relationhips that are much shorter than yours.

Maybe she was in a bad mood or maybe she didn't get laid the night before. Give her

a few pics, provide a brief narrative as to how you met and tell her you guys talk about

future plans, goals, family and dreams of being a happily married couple after so many

years of patiently waiting to be together.

If that is not good enough for her, ask to speak to a manager, director or supervisor?

I know you Filipinos don't like confrontation, but somethimes you have to stand up for

yourself.
