Thank you very much for sharing
I wonder if you can clarify, I have read the Balikbayan program info and noted the following
The term “balikbayan” shall mean a Filipino citizen who has been continuously out of the Philippines for a period of at least one (1) year
I am a Canadian citizen and my wife is a Philippine citizen and has permanent residence in Canada.
We have been out of the Philippines for more then 1 year. We plan on returning for approximately 4 months , so my understanding is that when traveling together, we can enter as Balikbayan and there would be no need for me to get tourist visa extensions, etc ( Canadians are initially allowed 30 day visa free, then I need to get an initial 1 month, then a 2 or 6 month extension which is both troublesome and costly )
The question based on the condition above, is after our 4 month visit to the Philippines, we would return to Canada for about 8 months, then travel back again to the Philippines, and this would be our normal yearly routine, so after the first visit, we would not have continuously been out of the Philippines for at least 1 year
I will always be traveling with my wife. Can we continue to avail Balikbayan privilege on subsequent visits or only on occasions where my wife has stayed outside of the Philippines for more then 1 year?
Thank you po sa info.
Upon arrival in Phil we showed our old Phil passport and our canadian passport informing him that we are availing Balikbayan previledge Then he put stamp in our canadian passport visa w/pp and date of our arrival.my question is are we granted the balikbayan previledge ?
Thanks!
Sir can you advise, how can I get a Philippines passport?? Currently I am in TRV Visa.
From what i understand on this info, the one year balikbayan privilege, with foreign passport, former filipino can stay beyond the one year stay. Does not need to apply for extension? Pls clarify.
Thank you sir for your response ,sir immigration also needs a onward ticket ,but i live here in the Philippines
Balikbayan travellers are not required to have a return or onward ticket per IATF Resolution No. 160-D, Series of 2022.

Have the laws/requirements changed for Balikbayans? I’ve never been asked for an old Philippine passport (US National) in previous trips to Manila that were over 30 days.
same here.
What if I don’t have my old passport or old birth certificate having been away some 40 years ago and ow is a Canadian citizen how can I avail balikbayan privilege?
there are new laws affecting balikbayans?
there is news that there are new laws.
Question Sir, US citizen but former Filipino po. How to avail the balikbayan po if magkaiba na ang name ng old PH passport sa US passport??
I have the same question to ask, my old and expired Philippine passport carries my maiden name. It would be greatly appreciated Atty if you can advise us. Thank you.
@@gracie083 any updates po?
Attorney pano po kong Neutralize Citizen ako dito sa Bansa , tapos nag divorce kami nong ona kong husband . Kasal ako ngayon sa bago kong husband granted din ba siya nang Balikbayan Visa at yong anak ko?
Sir, good afternoon. I'm always watching your videos, and it was really quite important for all of us. We are now residing here in the phils for a month and planning to stay for good. I am a former filipino with a foreign husband, so when we arrived at immigration we asked for a balikbayan visa. We applied for acr i card voluntary so that we can open a joint bank account.
Heres the situation,
My husband has his company abroad, and he is receiving monthly income as a salary on our bank account here in the phils. My question is, how will it work when it comes to taxes? We dont have any other income here in the phils but from abroad. Do we still need to pay tax here in the phils upon receiving his salary. We dont have an address anymore abroad.
Thank you so much. I hope you can tackle these topics on your next video.
Greeting,
Rachel
Do I need a return ticket as a balikbayan pinay.
As a spouse of a Filipina citizen do I need to enter the country with my spouse in order to avail of the Balikbayan visa ?
Yes. Make sure also that you are from any of those countries listed pursuant to Executive Order No. 408.
