I do think about the relationship a lot I have never really done a formal check on her. I am not sure how to go about that. Although she appears to be genuine. If you've never been to the Philippines why would you be on a Philippines immigration blacklist? No you wont be unless you have been here and broke the law so to answer your question no need to worry about a blacklist but on the other side if you have been convicted in your own country of crimes like raping children you will most likely be turned back at the Philippines airport as these days information is shared between authorities. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum Support Mike J Posted October 5, 2017 Forum Support Posted October 5, 2017 There is a James Barry living in Idaho Falls who is currently listed as a registered sex offender. If you are that individual the following may answer help answer your question. http://www.gmanetwork.com/news/news/nation/364303/immigration-bureau-registered-sex-offenders-barred-from-entering-phl/story/ Foreigners who are registered sex offenders in their home countries will be denied entry to the Philippines as they are deemed a threat to public safety, the Bureau of Immigration said Thursday. In a statement, Immigration chief Siegfred Mison said any alien found to be in the registry of sex offenders will be issued an order to leave. On the other hand, registered sex offenders who managed to enter the Philippines will be "ordered to leave within 15 days," and their names will be included on the Immigration blacklist. Among the sex offenders recently arrested in the Philippines are: American Robert Snyder, 67, who was arrested in Dumaguete City last May 17 by BI agents and US law enforcers. Snyder had been a fugitive for 10 years in connection with a sex assault case. He has been deported. five fugitives accused of rape and child molestation in their homeland were deported simultaneously by BI after their passports were revoked by authorities last February. Mison said that if the foreign registered sex offender holds a visa other than a temporary visitor visa, the legal division shall commence forfeiture proceedings against him or her. The visa forfeiture order shall include the order to leave with blacklisting. Should the alien registered sex offender fail to comply with the order to leave, the BI legal division will initiate deportation proceedings. "The BI shall ensure that the relevant immigration information of the registered sex offender shall be attached to the travel records, alien registration records and derogatory records, and the same will be part of the sex offender file," the Immigration statement added. Also in the statement, Mison ordered that once the BI receives information about a registered sex offender, the office of the commissioner or other BI offices will endorse the offender's file to the BI legal division within 24 hours from receipt of the letter or records from authorized personnel of a foreign embassy. Within 48 hours from receipt of the sex offender file, the legal division shall draft an order directing the offender's inclusion in the BI blacklist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As many of us know our NBI applications (Where needed) can be HIT because of Similar/ Same names Just a thought G & G's I would have thought a Police/ FBI clearance from Home would be of benefit here? @James Berry 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I mentioned in another thread how I was fingerprinted and questioned by a detective because a person with my name is wanted on multiple charges and also wanted in connection with a homicide. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's definitely much worse than what happened to me! I was told that I was on on Interpol's most wanted list for drug violations. Fortunately, I was able to convince the Interpol agents that I was innocent... and I was cleared by NBI in the same day. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clermont Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 Having read and retread all posts including your post, are you really asking in a sly way, can you check up on her, answer no, boots on the ground and find out for yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, he could also request she gets her cenomar (Which she will need in due course) all these will throw up light but nothing would be gained from His Status.

Yes I had forgotten this part I have to Admit, anyway there is always FB, that normally throws a couple of red Flags if digging deep about friends and family and the way some people think. Having said all we have and the Advice and information I tend to think in the Absence of any replies from him we may have frightened him off. Sometimes this happens, he never said too much and I do sit and wonder "Is this for real?" @James Berry 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clermont Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 Also she has to front the NBI with birth certificate and they take a photo of her before they release any info. i agree he might be trying to check up on her, but the blacklist is not the way to do it, it will only draw attention to him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
