Hello, pwedi po ba kumuha ng bagong nbi clearance kahit di pa po to expire?? kasi po may mali sa birthplace ko. Salamat po sa mag reply
Hello, pwede po malaman ang ibig sabihin ng “The receiver first name field is required”. Hindi po ako makakapili ng payment method gawa nun.
Ibig sabihin, naka blank po yata ang Receiver field. Dapat nyo pong isulat ang inyong name dun or kung sino man na magrereceive ng inyong NBI Clearance.
Hi, same experience rin dun sa receivers first name field is required pero wala naman blank field or any fields about sa receiver. Would you know where? Baka na-overlooked ko lang 🙂
