August 19, 2021 Dear Mrs. Krysteil Mae Cardenas, Greetings! Thank you for your request dated Aug 17, 2021 02:10:35 PM under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch for an update of OWWA scholarship for dependents of active OFW members. Ms. Cardenas the OWWA Verification System has no record of an online submission of a scholarship application. Visit the OWWA website or its regional office where you applied. Moreover, you registered your requests 3 time at the FOI but you did not mention the name of your dependent child and the type of scholarship she applied for (EDSP/ODSP/TABANG). Kindly be reminded about the Freedom of Information which is a project of the Presidential Communication Operation Office under the Office of the President. Its major function is to give public information about the data, programs, services and benefits of government offices. What you are requesting is a personal information on your daughter's scholarship application. We suggest you address your request to the DOLE or OWWA Regional Director for the status of your application. 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
