16months waiting here😥 . Status still Initial Assessment.

Guys, I have question. We are all (filipino) required to attend the Guidance and Couseling Program in CFO office before our departure? Is there anyone here who already attended GCP?
Thank you in advance

We are just hoping and we never know really. But let's see... If none, then we just keep on waiting. Nothing we can do but just hope and wait.

It's a requirement if you have a foreign partner or former filipino. And if you are flying out from Philippines.

You can do it once you have your visa grant.

I've done it when I had a free time - even if I don't have the visa grant yet and I only got a certificate. Once I have my visa grant, I will be back to get a sticker.

There is another thread on that..
https://www.australiaforum.com/visa...s-philippines-fiance-spouse-partner-visa.html

We avoided that by leaving the Philippines on a Tourist Visa, before the PMV was granted, and she hasn't been back since.

However, if she wants to return to, and then leave, the Philippines again, on a Filipino passport with a Partner visa, the official line is:

those who are living for 2 or more years overseas, like your wife, may be exempt from attending the 3-hour guidance and counseling session provided they present documents that prove their residence status.
In the case of your wife, she needs to come to CFO to register and undergo a one-on-one interview with a guidance and counseling facilitator.
Subsequently, she will be issued a guidance and counseling certificate and a CFO emigrant registration sticker will be affixed on her passport as proof of her attendance to the program and registration with CFO.
The certificate and the sticker are essential travel documents which your wife will need to present to the airport authorities on the day of her departure

It appears this may or may not be enforced at the Philippines departure airport.

If you don't have it, and the rule is enforced, you miss your flight.

I have time now to attend the GCP in CFO. I have schedule already on July 4. I think it's good to attend now while waiting for the visa, so that less hassle. 🙂 thank you

I hope you get your visa grant soon before your CFO schedule so you can get both Certificate and a Sticker. Cross fingers!

We changed our NOIM for the third time.
First (6th of February), second (4th of May). I hope we can make it this time (2nd of August) It’s been 18 months now. July last year they opened my application, I hope we can hear from immigration this July ☺🙏🏻
