CFO Clark

[asaeljethro 162]

I've researched, and even read recently that people were able to attend their CFO at Clark Philippines, and it even says on the website that CFO is open in Clark.

 

Today, my fiance went to Clark and they said they no long do CFO at Clark...and so my fiance wasted her time and money to travel there. I'm trying to schedule an appointment at CFO Manila and the next available appointment is Nov16 which is really far from now.

 

Question: Does anyone know if CFO Clark is really closed? I'm thinking she asked the wrong people or something...

Did you look at the schedule for Cebu?  My future asawa had to book Manila about a month out.  I believe Cebu may be less crowded so there may be openings.  

 

The CFO website just says that Clark has an extension desk outside of the airport.  Sounds like you can pick up stamps but there are no classes scheduled there.

I know my fiance did her GCP session at Clark on the 4th of October. I would have her contact them and check again as I am guessing someone told her wrong

their website still lists the session schedules

your fiance did hers this month? man... the thing I dont like about the Philippines is that their really not updated there, for example, if they stopped CFO in Clark, they should have put it on their website. My fiance told me she went to the one stop location and there was a person that said they dont do it there anymore. in which I'm hoping that person was wrong

That is what I meant.  It is confusing.  They show the class schedule for Manila and Cebu but no schedule for Clark.  They call Clark an extension desk and list the schedule in the press release.

My question is why isn’t this listed where they list Cebu and Manila.  It is just confusing.  The link you sent was from a press release/announcement.  I am just wondering if they stopped classes and never updated the press release?

best to see if you can get a number and check

my fiance did hers this month and had no issues but maybe they stopped offering the service there

I guess we both know that sometimes things are not as organized there as we are used to here!  LOL

 

Anyway, congrats on getting that part of the journey out of the way!

I know, we were not really sure about Clark but her friend got a number and called them to confirm they did the GCP there

she was able to do it on the 4th, otherwise it was a long wait for a slot in Manila

We started early enough.  Rose’s appointment was a month away when we booked it.  Since we still have another month for NOA2 we didn’t mind the schedule.

Nothing has changed. USC might want to make a call personally to determine if it's indeed still open to put it to rest.
