Overseas Workers Welfare Administration(OWWA)

November 6, 2023 Dear Ms. Riza Villanueva, Greetings! Thank you for your request dated Nov 06, 2023 03:51:45 PM under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch for the deportation of husband due to no remittance for the subsistence of the family left behind. Ms. Villanueva hindi mo po isinaad ang pangalan ng OFW para ma check namin kung myembro ng OWWA at kung may approved employment contract. Minumunkahi po namin na kao ay tumungo sa DMW (dating POEA) sa may EDSA corner Mandaluyong para makahingi ng OFW Information Records. Magdala lang po ng katibayan ng Mariage Certificate o mga Birth Certificate ng mga anak. Pwede din po naman kayo mag tungo sa OWWA Satellite Office (makikita sa Valenzuela City Hall)para mag file ng assistance to locate the whereabouts of the OFW. Ipinapaalam lang po sa inyo na ang deportation ay binibigay ng bansa kung saan nagtratrabaho ang OFW. At ito ay kung may nagawang crimen or inayawan ng employer. Kung kayo po and mag-rerequest na pabalikin ang isang OFW dapat po magsampa po kayo sa Municipal/City Trial Court. Dapat din magsangguni kayo sa abogado para maunawaan ang procedure at requirements for deportation.
