Hello mga kababayan,

Is CFO a requirement in an IR-5 (parents) petition?

After the interview, do my parents need to go to the short seminar to be able to get the CFO sticker?

I thought CFO was for spousal visa petition only. Please advise, salamat smile.png

Mostly correct. Those 60 years and old need only register to get the sticker in their passport (with visa)
