May 20, 2021 Dear Mr. Lyndon Biding, Greetings! Thank you for your request dated May 20, 2021 09:11:03 AM under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch for an update of your DOLE-AKAP Application. OWWA Verification System shows that you applied online on March 24, 2021 and was evaluated by OWWA-NCR as approved or QUALIFIED to the DOLE-AKAP. Your documents were forwarded to DOLE Regional Office for the processing and release of your financial benefit. You can follow up the status of your financial assistance from DOLE Regional Office NCR or its nearest satellite office. With respect to requests of changing the claimant, you have to do this with DOLE Regional Office NCR since they process and release the DOLE-AKAP to the partner remittance center where you can claim the financial assistance. If you are unhappy with this response to your FOI request, you may ask us to carry out an internal review of the response by writing to Administrator Hans Leo J. Cacdac at email: [email protected]. Your review request should explain why you are dissatisfied with this response and should be made within FIFTEEN (15) calendar days from the date you received this letter. We will complete the review and tell you the result within THIRTY (30) calendar days from the date we received your review request. However, if you are still not satisfied with the result of the review, you then have the right to appeal to the Office of the President under Administrative Order No. 22 (s. 2011). Thank you. Respectfully, RODRIGO F. PASCUA, JR. OWWA Deputy Administrator FOI Decision Maker
