Dear OWWA Officers, I am here in Alberta Canada and recently I got a job here and already started to work. I wish to register my self in OWWA to become a registered OFW here in Canada, I also contacted OWWA Vancouver and advice me if I can process it in the Philippine with the help of my wife, unfortunately my wife has also a job during weekdays. I am hoping to register my self through online and get someone to assist me from your office because this OWWA membership is very important for the Filipino like me who is working outside in the Philippines. Thank you very much Jayson Ignacio
