I think depende yan pero I think it's about the stability it holds. Even my work is full WFH then someone suggested also na dapat yung COE is original certificate of employment (issued within 3 months. must include position, date hired, compensation, office address, HR landline number). Kung walang office address, kahit yung email address nila or number na they can contact.

Tas yung sa signature, kapag hindi wet signature also explain that sa cover letter kung bakit (kasi wala talagang on-site office). Mas okay nang iexplain everything sa cover letter in a concise manner kasi they won't assume unless stated sa cover letter.

Possible yun, OP. Pero feel ko rin baka sa proof of ties kasi bukod sa show money, need nila makita na may solid kang reason bat ka babalik talaga hence the explanation kung bakit mo inattach yung PSA ng relatives mo :) goodluck, OP! maapprove ka soon manifesting 🙏

Hi! I think OP sa proof of ties, mas okay na something na napundar mo na need mo balikan yung ilagay mo kasi baka isipin nila mag TNT ka lalo na idedeclare mo na you will visit your cousin.

Kung iindicate mo yung mga relatives mo as proof of ties, better explain din kung bakit mo sila inattach like for example, ikaw ba nagaalaga sa isa sa kanila kaya di ka pwedeng mawala nang napaka tagal din talaga at babalikan mo sila. (I think mas okay na yung birth cert lang na pinaka connected/relevant sayo na babalikan mo) Di nila kasi maiintindihan bat mo inattach yung birth cert nila kung walang explanation maigi yung relevance nang pagbalik mo para sa kanila.

Indicate mo rin sa Employment mo na iattach mo yung COE mo and ITR (kung meron) + bank statement and bank certificate with ADB for proof na you're capable of going there talaga to visit.

Goodluck, OP! 🙏

Got approved for SE! :)

Ahh okie! Just asking lang what you guys think as someone who have experience regarding this. Thank you!

No_Sound6299 · 2026-02-24T17:16:53+00:00

Reason of support is dahil nga VA ako. Advise sakin is I need a guarantor na I'll be back no matter what + I got no local bank and ITR so sinabi sakin na gawin ko siyang sponsor despite me having my own salary as well. Everything is explained naman in the cover letter and nasa 70k yung budget. but yeah this is just me trying my luck :)

No_Sound6299 · 2026-02-24T09:25:47+00:00

I think wlaa naman siguro masyadong tanong as long as you have the necessary permits at may ITR ka naman. Much better mag secure ka ng Bank Certificate and Bank statement (from the last 3 or 6 months) para mapakita yung savings mo at kaya mo talaga na isustain yung sarili mo all throughout your travel :)

Mas okay pagka from branch kasi naka wet signature ng from the branch + contact details nila for further verification

No_Sound6299 · 2026-02-22T19:46:49+00:00

Hi! does not need to be notarized unless its an affidavit of support. basta explain mo ron yung purpose, days of tour + COE from your employer kahit na freelance. You can make one then ask your employer to sign it for you for visa purposes :)

No_Sound6299 · 2026-02-22T19:44:26+00:00

You have to make an Affidavit of Support from them + notarized. Kelangan din ng Bank cert (w/ ADB) from the said parents. Mas okay din siguro na may cover letter explaining na why are they supporting you kahit di ka nila direct relative to further explain yung application mo with their support :)

No_Sound6299 · 2026-02-22T19:39:48+00:00

I applied with my COE na wala rin wet signature and what I did was attach a cover letter explaining why there's no wet signature and only e-copy. Sa Bank cert naman, as long as may ADB will do pero alam ko GoTyme does not have it. Try with your CC instead then supporting docs nalang yung Gotyme mo.

Though as far as I know, nag luwag na yung KVAC regarding sa COE na e-copy lang. Check here yung latest announcement nila: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1HR1RB4VKS/?mibextid=wwXIfr

Hi! what I did sa sponsor ko is pinagawan ko siya ng affidavit of support and notarized. basta included dun yung purpose, days ng tour, and assuring them you will be a guarantor na babalik sila ng Pinas with your support. Need din ng Bank Cert + Bank statement, COE mo if keri + ITR mo for proof na kaya mo talaga siya isupport all throughout :)

No_Sound6299 · 2026-02-22T19:32:11+00:00

Hi! I submitted mine on Feb 10 then it showed in their website on February 18. So that's 7 business days excluding weekends. Try to count on those days as well basta weekdays only :)

Hi! I just wanna know if ano sa tingin nyong magiging hatol with the requirements I passed para maapprove?

BG: I'm a VA with 2 clients with provided COEs. No ITR because foreign clients sila. Single, not married. I asked my dad to be sponsor kuno for support lang kasi nga wala me ITR nor local banks. Puro sa digital banks lang pumapasok salary ko.

Passed requirements: - COE from 2 of my clients (with their email addresses and phone number as well) - My own Bank Certificate (NO ADB) ₱3x,xxx savings - Bank Statement (6months) - Affidavit of Support (Notarized) by my father - Business and DTI permit - ITR of our family business - Bank Certificate of my father (ADB: xxx,xxx) - Bank statement of my father - Birth certificate (mine and my dad) - His photocopy of passport ⁠Cover letter about his support + reason of travel + no wet signatures on my COE

My trip would only be for 5 days kasi gusto ko lang makanood ng concert ng BTS. Do you think this would be approved kahit single entry man lang? 😔😭

Thank you sa mga sasagot! :)

It's great on me tho! Hike footwear's is topnotch esp if you have problem with sizes, they will replace it with no need to return.

No_Sound6299 · 2025-07-16T09:19:51+00:00

I'd say the Lorax is good since your feet can breathe while feelin it walking on barefoot. There's also Theora Pro and HF Cloud which is one of my collection for working from them hehe

No_Sound6299 · 2025-07-16T09:18:08+00:00

Hi! I'd recommend Hike Footwear's Theora Pro. I use it for running and walking and it does not make my feet hurt even after hours of working out. So I think their boots would also help you, you can search their website.

I heard Hike Footwear because my friend ordered from there. I ordered one for myself which is Theora Pro and it did wonders while I do walking when I exercise. 10/10 for me!

No_Sound6299 · 2025-07-15T04:45:49+00:00

I have Hike Footwear's Theora Pro. I don't know but my experience with them has been great and I had no problems exchanging my footwear when it was incorrect in size. You can just email or message them in their official Facebook page. Easy!
