Overseas Workers Welfare Administration(OWWA)

August 14, 2022 Dear Mr. DONALD VILLAMOR, Greetings! Thank you for your request dated Aug 05, 2022 02:29:45 AM under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch for financial assistance provided to OFWs/families affected by the earthquake at Abra. Earlier this August 2022, a team from OWWA Central Office and the OWWA-CAR Regional Offices distributed financial assistance and "Work for Pay" benefits to our member OFWs and their family. If you were not able to avail any assistance, coordinate with your Municipio or LGUs and with the OWWA Satellite Office at Bangued, Abra. Remember you have to register with OWWA together with a proof of residence in the affected municipality so there would be a documentary evidence for release of 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 the OWWA- FOI Decision Makers 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, ATTY. EDELYN D. CLAUSTRO Director IV- Administrative and Financial Management Office OWWA-FOI Decision Maker
