03 January 2018 MS. DIVINA CASASOLA Dear Ms. Casasola: Greetings from the Commission on Filipinos Overseas (CFO)! Thank you for your eFOI request regarding the number of Filipino nurses abroad. As the CFO’s primary clientele are the emigrants who will permanently live in other countries, we are pleased to provide you with statistics of CFO-registered emigrants who have indicated their profession as nurses prior to their departure. These numbers include annual statistics on Filipinos who underwent the CFO’s mandatory Pre-departure Orientation Seminar (PDOS) for emigrants or Guidance and Counseling Program (GCP) for spouses or partners of foreign nationals prior to their departure. On the other hand, temporary migrants or overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) are not required to register with the CFO before their departure from the Philippines. They are instead required to register with and obtain their Overseas Employment Certificates (OECs) from the Philippine Overseas Employment Administration (POEA). The link below that contains information about OFWs and other professions by skill and by country might help you: http://poea.gov.ph/ofwstat/ofwstat.html The POEA’s Planning Branch, which is in charge of updating POEA’s annual deployment statistics has the proper authority to provide you with the information that you need regarding OFWs. Please refer to the attached directory for your easy reference. For questions or clarifications, you may contact Mr. Elfred del Rosario of the Policy, Planning and Research Division at 552-4763 or through email at [email protected]. Thank you and best regards. Very truly yours, MARIA REGINA ANGELA G. GALIAS Interim Officer-in-Charge Attachments: • Number of Registered Filipino Emigrants by Age Group (Professional Nurse): 2000 - 2015 • Number of Registered Filipino Emigrants by Sex (Professional Nurse): 2000 - 2015 • Number of Registered Filipino Emigrants by Country (Professional Nurse) 2000 - 2015 • Directory of POEA’s Planning Branch as of 03 January 2018
