mikeljyms oh wow! nakakainis nga yang DOST/PSHS scholarships na yan pagdating sa Travel

dati I had to go to Bureau of Immigration Office to make sure na cleared ako sa lahat ng "bans" dahil sa PSHS Scholarship. Yung ibang friends ko na DOST naman kailangan mo kumuha clearance sa DOST tapos ipa clear records sa BoI and NBI

mikeljyms yep early 2000s nakikipagmeeting ako sa Diliman yung National Alumni Assoc because of this. Under Drafun ka din ba? If so.. Gamegods batch here. Never ako nagka problem sa Travel ban but I went to BOI to ensure na na erase na nila Name ko and everyone else's. I went to meet with the Assistant Commissioner then para ma sure talaga.

Are you here in NZ

Grabe hiningan ako ng 3200 php ng nbi personnel sa aming lugar sa pilipinas para iprocess yung nbi ko kasi daw ofw..ipapadala daw sa manila...binigay pa yung personal contact nya..200 pesos lng yun eh..lol

I'm currently trying to renew my NBI Clearance and found out that there's a new renewal process that doesn't require fingerprinting. I've got a couple of clarifications if anyone has already renewed their NBI clearance through this process.

here's the advisory from philembassy:
www.philembassy.org.nz/nbi-clearance-advisory

Here's the requirements and process for the renewal

RENEWAL. Those Filipino nationals previously issued NBI clearance certificates

from 2014 onwards may file for renewal. Send via post the following to NBI

Manila’s Mailed Clearance Section (address provided below) or to your

representative:


 old NBI Clearance certificate;

 recent 2x2 photo with white background;

 passport photocopy; and

 if through a representative, letter of authorization.


You also need to pay the prescribed fee (amount & payment mode explained below).


Send your complete application package to:

MS. SANDRA P. SOBIDA

Mailed Clearance Section

3rd Floor, NBI Clearance Building

UN Avenue, Ermita, Manila, Philippines

Trunkline number: [phone] local 5465

Mobile numbers: + 63 915 689 3113 and [phone]

Email address: [e-mail]

here's the payment method: 

FEE AND MODE OF PAYMENT

 Cash payment is preferred amounting to two hundred Philippine pesos

(PhP200.00). The clearance fee itself is one hundred fifteen pesos

(PhP115.00). The remaining eighty-five pesos (PhP85.00) will be used to send

the clearance certificate through the Philippine Post.


 Nonetheless, those without representatives in the Philippines and who are filing

via courier service may settle the fee via online payment. Sign-up/sign-in at

clearance.nbi.gov.ph/ or www.nbi-clearance.com where you can

select the mode of payment most convenient for you. Please note that while

the NBI will charge one hundred fifteen pesos (PhP115.00) only, payment

service providers collect fees of varying amounts. Please note further

that you will have to make arrangements for the pick-up of your NBI

Clearance Certificate via courier service.


Once you have completed your transaction, a reference number will appear

on your computer screen. Copy this. It will serve as the NBI’s code in the

retrieval of your data and to ascertain the status of your application.

Since I don't have a representative that can go to NBI and do the renewal process for me, I'm thinking of doing the 2nd option which is to pay it via online on one of their payment methods. Couple of questions though

• Do I have to pay it first before I post my requirements to NBI Manila and then attach the reference number on my mail to be sent to them?

• also, do I include a courier fee(PHP 85.00) along with my requirements for them to be able to send my NBI Clearance to my specified PH address?
  
• OR do I just include the application fee + courier fee(PHP 200.00) along with my requirements when I send it via post?
  
• Once released if I want my NBI Clearance to be sent to an address in Philippines and not back here in NZ, can I just put a return address on my mail and then they would courier it to that specific PH address?

Apologies for the barrage of questions, just wanted to clarify some things before sending my renewal application.

NOTE: I don't want to get a representative in Philippines just because I don't want to hassle them taking a leave just to get an NBI Clearance for me in Manila and it can be hassle sometimes.

Pwede ba ilagay na lang 200 pesos cash sa sobre? If not, same modes of payment din ba sa Pinas (as in bank deposit, bayad center, etc) and papaano yung sa pick-up then send back sa NZ? I'm lost. Hahaha

[allune]

leanne

Yung courier service kailangan pa ring may tatanggap na representative sa Pilipinas para ipadala naman sa’yo. Last try ko though hindi siya gumagana. Ikaw ding magbabayad through payment methods na available sa’yo... otherwise makikisuyo ka sa kakilala mo na bayaran ‘yung fee.

Pwede rin yung sinabi mo na maglakip ng pera sa sobre at ipapadala sa Pinas (NBI Main). Note mo lang na nagtaas na ang presyo ng NBI Clearance dahil sa TRAIN Law starting 13 March 2018. (From 115 to 130) So baka 215 na dapat yung ilagay sa sobre. Please confirm to Ms Sandra Sobida before sending... Ingat lang though sa mga kawatan sa Philpost, technically bawal magpadala ng paper money sa postal system.

[leanne]

allune Wala na rin pala akong cash. Haha Pero mukhang mas convenient yung cash option.

Otherwise, parang kailangan ipasuyo lahat. Mas ok ata kung kakilala ko na lang mag process, hindi na through them.

[allune]

leanne Yup better pa, kahit ako pasuyo pa rin. Pero teka, hindi ka ba nagpasa sa previous ESV mo?

[leanne]

allune Akala ko pwede na ako na lang mag process,di pa rin pala. Need pa mag leave ng pakikisuyuan ko. Haha

Iniisip ko for SMC, need rin daw ng bagong NBI clearance kahit nag pasa na for ESV. Tama ba? Around September pa ako mag pasa.

[allune]

leanne Pwedeng ikaw sarili but it would require you to have physical cash and faith on the postal system haha! Meron naman na na naging successful sa pathway na ito.

Niiiice mag SMC na pala Di mo na need sa ESV mo pero kung for SMC make it as soonest as possible kasi 6 months lang validity for immigration purposes.

[leanne]

allune September pa ko pwede SMC at sana wag na mag change ng rules. Sakto lang points ko, if ever. Thanks!

[allune]

leanne magche change uli yung salary threshold when the new year comes so strike while the iron is hot!

[leanne]

Guys, try the Quick Renewal option sa website ng NBI (for clearances issued from 2014-2018 only). Just enter your old NBI ID number and the delivery address sa Pinas. Select your preferred payment method and pay Php 330. Mine was delivered 3 working days after payment. At least yung payment na lang ang pinakisuyo ko at hindi na yung pag claim.

[mab]

Thanks leanne for the tip! ayon..magrerenew na ko. hehe.

[Barbz]

allune Pwede ko po ba mahingi link kung saan ko pwede mabasa na immigration is planning to increase the salary threshold this November. Plan ko na rin try mag-apply ng residency this coming September. Wait pa ako ng few months to get additional points for skilled work experience under ANZCO not LTSSL. Thank you ：)

[allune]

Barbz not sure where you get that I said the threshold is increasing this November 2019. Wala namang announcement.

Maybe I was referring to the November 2018 change in the post you saw. Yun yung most recent.

And what points po under ANZSCO? You mean work experience points? Or work experience in NZ points?

[charcharbinks]

Ok na alternative din yung MVS document services. inemail ko lang sakanila yung previous NBI ko tapos sila na nagasikaso. 2 weeks later nasa NZ na ung NBI

[Barbz]

allune hehe sorry last year pa pla yung message mo. I thought meron uli announcement. Kinabahan ako run if ever meron. Meron na ako 1 NZ experience. Naisip ko lng mas ok mag apply ng EOI by September this year kasi by that time 1 year & 5 months na ako sa work ko plus meron din ako part time work experience before na 4 months nun time na student pa ako which is related sa inaral ko. Para makapag claim ako ng points for 2 years work experience. 3-6 months naman ITA processing nila if maapprove residency ko aabot ako sa 2 years work experience na kailangan ko meet to claim points. Sana tama tong gagawin ko.

[darkvenom78]

tanong lang po, ung nbi clearance ba ng OFW from SG na process sa pinas walang finger print at signature? napadala ko nman lahat ng kailangan na ginawa sa embassy, nong binigay nbi clearance wala signature ko at fingerprint

[lizay]

Hello po, nasa nz na kami ng asawa ko, balak namin mag apply ng resident visa ...need ba nbi clearance para mag apply?

[lizay]

Salamat po sa makatulong sasagot

[ropongi]

^ Yes, kelangan po ng NBI clearance. Nung case namin wala kami sa Pinas din nung ng apply. Ngpunta kami sa Police to gather fingerprints then pinadala namin sa relative sa Pinas then they used it sa pag-apply ng NBI clearance.

Hi po, ano yong mvs service na alternative para makakuha ng nbi? Pwede ba mag ask ng website nila pls.thanks

[leanne]

Hello. May naka-try na ba nung Quick Renewal sa website ng NBI lately? Meron na silang credit card payment option, not sure if meron na rin ba nito dati. Nag-try ako pero failed. Meron ba successful attempt lately? Salamat 🙃

[allune]

leanne still works... you need a PH based payment method for it to work smoothly though.

155 if paying through Bayad Center (payment processor of Visa CC, MasterCard not accepted)

Plus 200 for the courier and processed separately through Multipay.

You can also book your own courier and they have instructions for that.
