Hello, guys!

I am not sure if I am on the right forum section so if not, kindly just transfer this to a more appropriate one. ?

I am curious if there are VJ members here who already have processed the withdrawal of their PAGIBIG contribution/funds AFTER GETTING THEIR US GREEN CARD. I tried to search VJ website for any previous discussion about it but I those I found were like 4-5 years ago. And no one has confirmed if they already have done it.

If there are folks here who already have withdrawn their funds from PAGIBIG, I would love to hear from you. Please share your experiences and how you dealt with it.

Thanks so much in advance.

Why does she still pay for it?

She says she needs to get about P125,000 for withdrawal. She had a friend in Manila area who had about P70,000 and she paid the difference of 80,000(just a rough estimate~ I can't remember the exact number) to reach the 125,000 limit. Then she was able to draw out her funds.

I do not think that there is such thing as that. I would assume that your wife has already migrated to the US. Here is a link for you to check on the eligibility to withdraw funds for members who already migrated permanently outside the Philippines. And it does not mention anything about certain required amounts,
