At this stage, the process of entering the Philippines for SRRV (Retirement Immigrant Visa)

The Philippine Retirement Agency has re-accepted SRRV applications for retirement immigrant visas since May 17, 2021, but only for applicants over 50 years old.

The Philippine Retirement Agency stated at the bottom of the announcement that the SRRV policy for retired immigrants aged 35 to 49 is still under discussion, and there is no final plan for whether it will be completely canceled or reopened in the future.

Those who have previously submitted application documents can apply for a refund, and the amount will be returned to the applicant by the same route.

Then after raising the age group, nearly a year has passed, and it is not impossible for the epidemic to seriously destroy the economy. People over the age of 50 who come to the Philippines are those who can be sure to provide for the aged. They generally have sufficient funds, but for the Philippine government, they are the people who want to come to the Philippines most, that is, to promote economic development and reduce the crime rate of Filipino foreigners.

If a friend has reached the age of 50, now is a good time to consider SRRV. The epidemic in the Philippines has eased and is tending to liberalize rapidly.

What if people are not in the Philippines?

The Philippine Retirement Agency stated that applicants who are currently not in the Philippines must follow the entry policy of the Inter-Agency Epidemic Prevention Working Group (IATF) to go to the Philippines to complete the application procedures. Applicants must apply for a 9A tourist visa to enter the country in order to complete the formalities, while tourist visas need to be approved by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for exemption from entry documents (EED) to be able to apply smoothly. This application requires qualified companies in the Philippines to apply to relevant departments for assistance.

Now this is the key issue. Even if you reach your age, you seem to be unable to move forward. Now this problem has been solved. With the promotion of practical workers, this entry exemption document is a problem that can be solved by waiting, and it will take up to two months.

The specific process is as follows:

Step 1: Remittance of $20000 to DBP, Philippine Development Bank (this is not without solution, please consult for details)

Step 2: Submit application forms, double certification documents and government fees.

Step 3: Here to help with the application for entry exemption documents, if the entry exemption is approved, you will bring the approval letter to the nearest Philippine consulate to apply for a tourist visa.

Step 4: Physical examination. Take the following form to the hospital or clinic for a physical examination. The doctor will write down the physical examination results and sign them, as well as the name of the hospital.

Step 5: Buy air tickets to book hotels and prepare for entry-related inspection and quarantine procedures. For details, please refer to: From today on, the Philippines will open its borders to international tourists. Specific requirements for Chinese entry

Step 6: Those who have been fully vaccinated do not need to be isolated, and directly obtain the right of permanent residence as agreed.

The above is the general process. If you have any questions you don't understand or want to consult the editor at any time.
