Hangan kailan kaya yan. I am 82.Healthy.Gusto ko talaga umuwi, Former Pilipino but US citizen. now.Every year umuuwi ako. All my relatives are in the Philippines. And I really enjoy going home and retire there but with this pandemic. Nakakatakot. UUWI ka pero nakakulong ka lang, di ka makakalabas dahil sa idad mo. What do you think?

[@DolrichAguillon]

Hello po! I understand your concern po at malamang madami din kababayan natin ang gusto umuwi ng Pilipinas to spend holidays at para maglibang. December na po tayo and by next year i am hoping most of the countries will have their own covid vaccine at bababa nadin ang cases nito worldwide. My suggestion po is to kindly wait muna if hindi urgent ang paguwi, lalo pa health at safety ang at stake. Besides ma hassle at stressful dala ng swab test, quarantine, certificates, mga bayarin na dapat pag daanan pagkauwi ng Pilipinas.

[@jesaschneebeli-agno1497]

[@creswhiteside3749]

Puede bang slower ang pasasalita mo para maiitindihan co. Maraming salamat po.

[@josephserfino91]

Good job 👌...Very clear and detailed... just a quick question, how long is the wait for the results of the swab test? Is it mandatory to book a hotel for at least 2 days? What if the results come earlier? Will the hotel give you a refund for the extra day that you booked?

[@DolrichAguillon]

Results ng swab test po is 24 to 48 hrs, within that time frame. If ever lumabas ng mas maaga ang result niyo, i don't think hotels will refund yung extra night ninyo sa kanila. Hindi po mandatory ang 2 days, advisable lang. You can book for 1 night then extend mo nalng if wala pa yung result mo, pwede din marahil yun.

[@carmenrama6455]

Anyway salamat kaayo sa privilege for the Filipinos going home

[@DolrichAguillon]

Ingat pauwi ma'am!

[@jeriedrosales2089]

Lods, pede ba sumundo o kailangan talaga na yung provided na airport transport service lang ng army or coast guard ang maghahatid sa quarantine? thanks po!

[@DolrichAguillon]

Hi sir, for OFW's at non OFW's kasi yung transport system lang sa NAIA ang pwede maghatid sa quaratine facilities nila.

[@ghiemabuhay4373]

Hi poh kuya dolrich..pede ko po ba itanong kung same pa den ung kalakaran sa tin dun sa airport kpg uuwe mga ofw??ung swab poba redcross pa den at free hotel pa den po ba???

[@DolrichAguillon]

Hi ma'am! So far ganun padin po. Red cross at Oasis registration for OFW's bago umuwi ng Pilipinas. Kailan po uwi niyo?

[@luzmindaestember6357]

How about if you are in connecting flights going to Mindanao? You can travel directly and reaching your destination airport you could do all this registration,swab and quarantine facilities.Thanks and hope we could do this as connecting flights so that we could do at once for all and not staying 2days before we could travel .The same thing we follow the rules in quarantine.Hope we could do this for all connecting flights. Thank you so much.

[@DolrichAguillon]

Hi ma'am, that is still a problem lalo kung may connecting flight ka pa probinsya kasi kailangan mo padin mag pa swab test sa Manila, wait ng results bago ka ma ka travel pa probinsya. Sa ngayon not advisable magpa book ng connecting flight immediately.

Hi. Thank you for the info. My nephew wants to go with me but hes a us citizen. His dad is filipino which is my bro. Can he still go with us to PI? Also im US citizen along with my kids. Confused kasi. How does this work? Thanks in advance for your time and reply.

[@DolrichAguillon]

Hi ma'am Lila, let me try to figure this out. You are a US citizen, but former Filipino at gusto mo mag avail ng Balikbayan program together with your kids? Right? That is fine. But I don't think your nephew can come with you kasi he should be with his dad who is a Filipino citizen, para maka avail sila ng Balikbayan program. Yung sakop po kasi ng Balikbayan program is hanggang foreign partner at anak lang ng Balikbayan. Hope that helps po.

[@DolrichAguillon]

I'm not an expert po ma'am ah, pero ayan ang first take ko. If you want to be sure 100% i would suggest for you to call our embassy dyan sa lugar ninyo. Ingat po lagi.

[@renelopez3528]

Sir may tanong ako tungkol sa sa quarantine, kc plano ko pag uwi ko ng pinas mag stay ako sa Manila ng 1 week then travel ako sa Roxas City for 1,week then Romblon, lahat ba ng lugar na pupuntahan ko kailangan ko mag quarantine, kc sayang lang bakasyon ko kung sa quarantine lang mauubos ang bakasyon ko. salamat po sana masagot mo mga katanungan ko.

[@DolrichAguillon]

Hi sir, ang problema kasi bawat probinsya meron kanya kanya patakaran, kasi kung bakasyon ka sa Manila, need mo sundin quarantine protocol nila, pagdating mo ng Romblon meron din sila protocol doon at pati sa Roxas. Yan ang mahirap kapag bakasyon ka kasi need mo alamin lahat ng protocol ng bawat probinsya.

[@loidafandialan6776]

I'm former Fil citizen now in US and with US passport.. I live in Taguig MM is it true after I'm clear and neg PCR do I have to undergo another 14day Quarantine again? Pls let me know

[@DolrichAguillon]

Yes po, totoo po yun. Kasi po you can still show symptoms of the disease up to 14 days from the date of exposure. Hoping it could change soon, kasi sa ibang mga bansa 7 days nalng siya instead of 2 weeks.

[@natewars]

hi there. For children for the former Filipinos, may age limit ba yung 1 year visa free entry? Kasi may naka indicate na regardless of age but not clear if 1 year entry ba or 30 days. hmm..

Hello kabayan dolriech,kmusta ask q lng kabayan d related ito sa video mo ngaun.Dependent na po aq ng asawa q sa kasalukuyan pero dati akong nagtatrabaho bilang isang katulong sa loob ng bahay,ang amo q at ang amo nya iisa lng.D na po aq nagbabayad sa owwa contribution 2 years ago mula ng nilipat nya aq sa asawa q ang tanong q kabayan kng mag continue aq ng bayad sa owwa may makukuha ba akong pribiliho at assistance program salamat kabayan dolriech hintayin q po ang sagot mo,take care.

[@DolrichAguillon]

Hello po, ilang taon na po kayo member ng OWWA bago kayo nahinto sa pagbabayad? Kung hihinto po kayo malamang hindi kayo makakuha ng mga assistance o privileges kasi po karamihan ay para lamang sa mga active OWWA members. Para po makasiguro kayo maigi na na tumawag sa isang owwa representative sa bansa kung nasaan po kayo ngayon o sa owwa regional office kung nasa Pilipinas naman kayo para mabigyan nila kayo ng tamang payo. Ingat po lagi!
