October 10, 2021 Dear Mr. Ronnie Aguilar, Greetings! Thank you for your request dated Oct 05, 2021 10:45:19 PM under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch for financial assistance for OFW who tested positive with COVID-19. As of date, OWWA Verification System has no online submission for DOLE-AKAP. Since the reason of your return to the Phil. is for a vacation, then, you are not qualified to the DOLE-AKAP. Only the repatriated workers whose employment were terminated by their employers due to COVID-19 are qualified. Check with your Philippine Recruitment Agency if your PhilHealth contribution is updated so your medical expenses can be charged to PhilHealth. Mr. Ronnie Canja Aguilar may we clarify to you the Freedom of Information (FOI) Portal which is a project of the Presidential Communications Operations Office under the Office of the President. Its major function is to allow any Filipino citizen to request information about the data, programs, services and benefits or anything about the transactions and operation of specific government offices, provided, it shall not put into jeopardy the privacy of individuals and matters of national security. 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, ATTY. EDELYN D. CLAUSTRO Director IV- Administrative and Financial Management Office OWWA FOI Decision Maker
