Exit – OEC
POEA Online – Balik Manggagawa Online Processing System
We’re going home! !!
Among the many hassles we Filipinos go through… (OFW to be specific) is the yearly visit to the embassy/consulate (if you could take a leave yearly) and get the so called OEC.
OEC is – Overseas Employment Certificate.
For the past 6 years, I often just show up to the embassy- fall in line and wait until my turn to present the required documents, pay for Pag-ibig, OWWA and others… but this year the embassy (in UAE) has started doing online appointment by visiting the website: http://bmonline.poea.gov.ph/
So, for those who plan to go on vacation, here is a step-by step guide to create your online profile (pretty much facebook/email account actually but a bit personal) and schedule an appointment to collect your OEC and avoid the long queues.
