I went to Clark a few weeks ago to extend my visa and they asked me if I would like an ACR card, so I said yes, did all the papers and paid and they told me to return in 4 weeks to pick it up. I might have a day out with the family as there are a few nice shopping malls close by soon.

But one thing to watch when you visit the immigration office, you must wear long trousers and a proper shirt and no trainers, and only the applicant is allowed inside the office, not anyone else... wife included!!
