The reason why I am sharing this is because I just recently experienced an error on my NBI Clearance Data (my middle name was misspelled, my fault though)
Back Story: I am a DOST scholar and I have to wait for 2 weeks before my clearance gets released because I have to go through Quality Control Interview. During the QC interview, I was asked if I still want to change the spelling of my middle name, unfortunately I just ignored it as it would take another few minutes to correct it and since I was also in a rush. It though it would just be fine, BUT IT WAS NOT!!!! People please remember that when dealing with official documents never rely on the short cuts!!!
I was about to use the clearance for my pre-employment documents I didn't pass the hook of my laziness. It was a lesson learned and my employer asked me to get another clearance.
FastForward to Present:
- I went ahead and reprocess another appointment online (https://clearance.nbi.gov.ph/)
- you can always reschedule it on the next business day, I am discouraging you to schedule it in the afternoon as usually they have cut off for the queue and you will just have to rely on being a chance passenger( LOL! :D )
- NOTE: choose the NBI office were you did your QUALITY CONTROL INTERVIEW specially if you initially processed the clearance from a satellite office and ended up being referred to another location for QCI.
- Proceed to the Encoding Area, you will be asked to be back in 2 weeks time. You don't need to wait for another millennium. Approach any officer of the day and tell them about your story that you just had errors on your clearance and that you already went through the waiting game.
- You will be asked to go to a certain office (it will be in the same building for sure). You just have to present the original clearance that has an error in it and after few minutes you will be asked to go back to Quality Control Section for your Interview. AGAIN!!! Be nice because it is your fault and they won't bite you if you admit that it was your fault but if they do just ignore their attitude, REMEMBER: YOU DON'T WANT TO WAIT FOR ANOTHER 2WEEKS, GETS?
- Wait for further instruction from your interviewer, it is just either of the following:
- you wait for them to print your Clearance with correct data or;
- you will be asked to get it from the releasing section
- Then go HOME and always remember that there is no shortcut for everything and sometimes you will just BRING DOWN THE WRATH OF HEAVEN UPON YOU if you do so!
DON'T FORGET TO BRING THE FOLLOWING:
- Original Clearance with the wrong Data
- Government Issued ID(s)
- Smile on your FACE, EVEN a FAKE ONE WILL DO
- and MOST OF ALL, Long PATIENT and UNDERSTANDING
