Overseas Workers Welfare Administration(OWWA)

May 10, 2021 Dear Mr. Dennis Corpuz, Greetings! Thank you for your request dated May 09, 2021 06:10:53 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 October 4, 2020 and was evaluated by OWWA RWO 4A as PENDING awaiting the submission of the valid Airline Ticket with Date of Arrival. However, your ship, the Golden Princess, if it directly brought you back to the Philippines and you never received a cash assistance from OWWA upon arrival you, have to contact OWWA 4A or its nearest provincial office. An alternative, is to submit your documentary evidence to Director Allan Ignacio of OWWA 4A for reconsideration. 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
