    I admire you for all these information and what you do for our kababayans..You may vlog and vlog all you want with all due respect but our country changes rules and protocols every few weeks and it’s hard to keep up..My parents went to the Philippines last December under that new protocol I believe December 9 only to changed again and was treated horribly upon landing..I am Proud of my heritage but what my parents at 70 years old went through and experienced put a damper on my patriotism .I’ve been in North America since I was 17 and yet again our country is still full of crap and corrupt..

    Thank you Grandpa, I had not heard of the requirement for the annual reporting until I saw your Vlogg. I have the ACR light purple card (13a probationary) that I received in November. I went today to the Makati satellite office today and reported. I went around 1:00 pm and there were only 2 other guys in front of me. 15 minutes, 310 pesos, and was complete, but of course parking was terrible. I ended up parking at nearby "Century Mall" and walking about 10 minutes to office.
    Thanks again as I would not have been aware of this...

    I don't get it. Would it not benefit the Philippine economy greatly, if the Philippines were to admit retirees, let them bring their money to Philippine banks WITHOUT the red tape? Or let them BUY a house with a small land (SMALL, 1000 sqm is too much already) in their name, what on earth is wrong with that idea? Let them enjoy the food, the company, let them spend their money, their Social Security money in the philippines!..once the retirees pass away the house passes into Philippine ownership, because no one can take it with them into the grave..you see what the USA does for the retirees? They will deposit the SSI funds into banks all over the world, to make things simple for retirees, so why does the Philippines, not do the same? Please show me ONE RATIONAL argument why the Philippines are trying to make more and more hurdles for people? Where is the profit in that?

    If you are a TOURIST when you arrive in the Philippines your Passport in stamped for a FREE 30 days visa, before the end of the 30 days if you intend to stay longer you must go to immigration where you will pay and get an extra 29 days visa stamp it your Passport. So before the end of the total 59 days you will go to immigration to extend your visa if staying longer, you will pay and get 2 or 6 months extension you will also pay for an ACRI card that is mandatory if staying over the 59 days, The ACRI card lasts for one year and starts at the end of your 59 days so that will coinside with your 2 or 6 month visa extensions. sorry i am trying to put this in plain English so its easy to understand as some of the explanations are confusing

      Your post is correct or at least it was. I have been in the Phil for 2 years and renew my tourist visa as required. I asked about the ACRI card and they just said they don't care and not required unless I need it as an ID. I have been coming and going in the Phil and previous to my stay this time, I always had to buy the card. But for some reason they just laughed me off and they continue to renew my visa without asking for one.

    There is one still remaining problem with reporting on the annual ACR report. The quarentine lockdown is still in effect for younger and especially senior citizens. I am 72 and I have been on lockdown since March 15 th of last year. Just getting to the NBI for the 13A visa, we decided to use a service as he found a way to get it done. The BI pictures again created a problem. Luckily he is picking up my approved 13A stamp on passport and will do the annual report. The new ACR card is going to take a couple of months. If over 65 save yourself a lot of trouble and hire a service as they know their way around the system.

He asked me which bank required it, I said I didn't know, I was just going by what I had heard. He told me the banks here do not require ACR I card but that was 2017. I never bothered to open up an account here, I just use my us bank. Bank have toughened up on some rules so it may be different now in 2021.

      Hello from what know only being on a tourist visa after your first 59 days it is mandatory to have an ACRI card and immigration will automatically issue you with an ACRI card if you are going to extend your visa over the 59 days. The ACRI card is valid for one year after the 59 days so will coincide with your visa extensions of every 2 or 6 months for renewal if you are still in the philippines. One point i am not sure about but i think i am right in saying if you leave the Philippines and come back your ACRI card if its still in date is still valid

    Thanks for another informative video Danny. I had been thinking about getting a 13-A but I'm beginning to wonder if I'd be stupid to when I can just go in as a Balikbayan and not have to bother with the annual check in and ACRI fee plus the annual PR card check in and fee. I think I can make out alright without a bank account in the Philippines since my wife already has that.
    From what I understand a person can also extend the Balikbayan 1 year period if I go through the right channels? That just seems like it might be so much less of a hassle. :)

    • @vloggergrandpa2707
      @vloggergrandpa2707  3 роки тому +4

      Getting a dual citizenship is the least hassle of all. Why are you reluctant to recapture your motherland's citizenship? You have to inquire how much it would cost you to extend a Balikbayan visa. If you will be a frequent visitor, or semi-permanent visitor, I would definitely get dual citizenship. I got mine the same day (before the pandemic) and only cost me $50, one time. After that, I had to apply for Philippine passport that cost me under $100 and it is good for 10 years. Now, I can go back and forth between US and Philippines and not worry about a visa or entry restrictions like during the pandemic. Balikbayan was not even allowed few months ago. What could be less hassle than that? Think about it. 🙂

My wife is in the process at this time of acquiring the dual citizenship, while my thoughts are on if it's wiser for me as a foreign husband to just take advantage of the Balikbayan program rather than going with a 13-A plus the ACRI, ... which both have a charge and some inconvenience each year (my younger brother found out the hard way that a person is supposed to check in and pay a fee for the permanent residence card he got through 13-A although the card itself had a 5 year expiration date). What a bunch of fines he paid because of going in to renew his card after 5 years. lol
      Here in Canada when a person gets a PR card and it has an expiry date you don't need to do anything for those 5 years, ... which is very different than in the Philippines. ;)

We are still waiting for my daughter’s dual certificate, which was sent and accepted by Philippine consulate, few months ago. Reason backlog, they say. Then, it will take another 3 plus months for the passport as they say. So by the time we receive those documents, pandemic will be over. But I do understand your point, that’s why we decided to apply for dual certificate and passport.

The information I have says a White card will be issued to "temporary visitors [meaning, Tourists] who will stay/have stayed for more than 59 days." Anyway, if you have an email that says that you don't need it, good for you. Just be sure to save that email. This is a very common problem in the Philippines. Ask two people, and you get two different answers. Just like asking the IRS in the US. 🙂

      If you are former Filipino citizen and now a foreigner, you can go back as balikbayan. This is covered in one or several of my vlogs. Here's the link to my channel. ua-cam.com/channels/YU70S4jYvhw0BOetMFdD6A.htmlvideos

      If you are required to leave the country, it could be anywhere. You don't have to go to USA. Please clear immigration office to be sure. Why not get an SSRV visa or 13A visa so you don't have to play this game.

      @@billchronister5242 as far as I have heard: To obtain that ssrv visa you have to "invest" 10 000 US$ into an account. You can ONLY use that money if you "buy" a condominium...remember foreigners are not allowed to own LAND in the Philippines, but a condominium, yes. OR is you can show that the 10 000 are needed for healthcare... then you get that ssrv. OR you get a balikbayan visa...in other words, marry a Filipina and thats not a bad thing, hopefullly!
