    CFO Advice

    Hi All
    hopefully someone will know the answer to this.
    Mizel has already got her seminar certificate. She can go and get her sticker from 29th, will she need to queue and take a slot or just turn up anytime and get CFO sticker.
    thanks
    Andy

    Hello Andy, your wife needs to go to the CFO Office early as she can in the morning cause their rules is first 15 slot per day.

    Thats correct my wife queued up during the night at about 4am and by 5.30 there was the full allocation already there, a bit of a bummer but has to be done...

    She has already done guidance counselling seminar, it would seem a waste of a slot as she only needs to show her certificate and visa to get the sticker.

    I think you'd be well advised to contact CFO and confirm the procedure.

    I have no idea if the requirements changed recently, but most of those I know personally simply rolled up at CFO in the afternoon, went to counter 2, presented their passport (showing valid visa) together with their Guidance and Counseling Certificate and receipt.

    The person at counter 2 retained the passport for processing and returned the other docs.
    Some folks have gone on to counter 4 for further payments and others not.
    After 30 - 60 mins the passports were returned complete with sticker/stamp. That's it.

    Why it takes so long to add the sticker/stamp I've never discovered.

    But as I said, better to confirm beforehand. To date I've not known anyone needed to go through the whole queue-up just for the sticker.

    Well good news is Mizel got her sticker,she did go early and was given a priority number.Guess we'll never know if she'd got it by going later.We're very relieved as the woman who gave her a hard time at the guidance seminar wouldnt give it to her or return her passport till she gave her my landline number.
    whatever the principle and sentiment behind the whole counseling thing,it would appear that they have far too much power .Surely they are there to give advice not make decisions on someones future.roll on saturday when i fly out to bring her home
