Gary D Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 It's not universally available so perhap it has been dropped at Bob's BI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I beleive it was only a 100 or so pesos more for the six month compared to 3x2 months but in the make work society it's only 1/3 the work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want the 6 month visa go to Fastpass next door, they can do it for you for an extra 1k or so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobbit112 Posted April 2, 2019 Posted April 2, 2019 6 month Visa is available, I obtained one last month BUT it is not available at all BI offices, including regional ones. Best to call first and see if it is available at your selected office. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried again after that mess cleared up but got the same answer.. I'll try again on my next visit to see what they say now.. We had similar problems in Dumaguete but it is cleared up now. The 6 month visa has been available throughout the whole work-to-rule affair but in the sub-offices it is (and was) up to the "in-charge" whether they will do it or not. They did not do it in Duma during that few months but people could go to Cebu and get it. You can now get it in Dumaguete but they tell me I must pay the express fee to get it. It is not as much as it once was so it is a good deal for me. (Which reminds me I did my 6-month renewal last month for 11,000 pesos including ACR card renewal and I have to go pick up that dang card). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
