I recently filed a loan through Pag-Ibig Fund. Since it's more convenient for me to go to their Kamuning Branch (near GMA) and it is where my contributions are being remitted by my employer, that's where I did my filing. Here's what I did.
1. Get your Pag-Ibig Membership ID. All your transactions with Pag-Ibig Fund will be requiring this. To get your Pag-Ibig Membership ID (MID), you can register online via www.pagibigfundservices.com or you manually register by visiting Pag-Ibig branch near you.
If you did your registration online, you have to print your Member's Data Form (MDF) and wait for the notification via text if you can already get your Pag-Ibig MID. You need to present your MDF to the one printing the Pag-Ibig Membership ID (MID). If you have a Pag-Ibig MIB then you can skip this.
Online registration is I think much faster than having to register manually which is what I did. If I had known that it can be done online I would have registered online.
2. Go to the nearest Pag-Ibig Fund branch and get a print-out of your contribution or the Home Development Mutual Fund Employee Statement of Accumulated Value. In Pag-Ibig Kamuning I was able to get my print-out by getting a number for Contribution Validation and waited my turn. This is where I found out the number of contributions that I have and if all my previous employers were already validated by Pag-Ibig. This is where I found out that even if the number of my contributions are enough, one of my previous employers are not yet in my records. It could be that because I worked in Makati, then moved to Quezon City that this has happened or something happened along the way. This is quite normal. The person gave me a form and let me sign a request to consolidate all my contributions from my previous employers. It will take 2 to 3 or more weeks for them to consolidate this. Since I have enough contributions to allow me to file a loan I didn't wait for the consolidation, although I filed for one since I am already there. Of course my loan will just be based on the validated contributions.
If you're sure that your contribution
3. You need to accomplish the Multi-Purpose Loan Application Form (MPLAF). If employed, you need to have this signed by your employer. Also, you need to have two witnesses sign the form. You can download it from the website or you can get it from the Pag-Ibig branch. I got mine from the branch when I had my MID done manually.
4. Make sure that you have photocopies of two VALID IDs. Bring the two valid IDs with you when you submit your application.
5. Prepare proof of income. I requested for my one month payslip (authenticated).
6. I filed my loan application (submitting items 3, 4, and 5) to Pag-Ibig Fund Kamuning branch. I got a number for Multi-Purpose Loan and waited in line for my number to be called. The one processing the loan just asked for the original IDs that I have photocopied and with a few clicks my loan was approved. One thing though, since I don't have an ATM payroll account indicated, she gave me a form to open a Lanbank HDMF Cash Card so that Pag-Ibig will then deposit the loan amount through that facility. I was ushered to the booth of Landbank and was instructed to go back to the processing officer once done.
7. Getting a Landbank HDMF Cash Card was easy. I just accomplished their form for opening a Cash Card. They gave me the ATM Card and have it photocopied (2 copies) along with my two Valid IDs (including the back side). I submitted the photocopies with my three signature for each copy. Then, they handed me the PIN for the Landbank HDMF Cash Card.
8. I went back to the Multi-Purpose Loan Processing Officer and she gave me a slip of paper that indicated when to expect the loan (after two weeks).

Getting a Solo Parent ID in Quezon City
I am a single parent. Being a single parent is generally a challenge. I take full responsibility in taking care of my child to the best of my knowledge and skills until such time he can fully take care and be responsible for himself. Being a solo parent also has its benefits and privileges, some of them are identified in RA 8972 or the Solo Parent’s Welfare Act of 2000. One can look it up on the net. I was encouraged to apply for a Solo Parent ID now that my son is attending school for the first time. He is attending school in one of the Day Care Centers supervised by the Quezon City Local Government in coordination with the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD).
Here are the steps in getting a Solo Parent ID in Quezon City:
1. Go to your barangay hall and request for the Barangay Certification certifying Solo Parent’s residency in the barangay for the last six months. I brought a government issued ID for identification. I was interviewed by the Barangay Captain himself before he signed the certificate. I did not pay anything for this certificate which somehow surprised me, but I'm happy that our barangay provided it as a "free" service.
2. Prepare an affidavit of circumstance stating the reason for becoming a solo parent. Of course, this must be notarized. Prices vary for this one. It depends if you prepare/print the affidavit yourself or have the notary public do it from scratch.
3. Have with you the birth certificate of the child/children you are supporting and death certificate of spouse (if applicable).
4. You may need to bring income tax return or any document that will establish the income level of the solo parent.
5. Prepare latest picture (1x1). This will be attached to the ID.
6. Go to the Quezon City Hall Social Services Development Department (SSDD) - City Hall Compound, Molave Youth Home - 924-14-12, 926-93-44, 926-18-24, 927-15-88 and 924-14-40 (telefax)
7. Fill-up an application form to be given by the social worker. Along with this, you must submit the items indicated above (items 1 to 4). You will be given a telephone number to check if you have been approved and if your ID is ready. The social worker told me to wait for a week.
8. After a week, I went to pick up my Solo Parent ID. They asked me to sign a logbook.
I also encourage other solo parents out there to apply for a solo parent ID so that the government may have an idea how big the population of solo parents are in Quezon City. Such will help them establish or create projects relevant to single parents.
Please note that a "solo parent", as defined by RA 8972 is (copied from http://www.gov.ph/services/solo-parent/):
1. A woman who gives birth as a result of rape and other crimes against chastity even without a final conviction of the offender, provided that mother keeps and raises the child.
2. Parent left solo or alone with the responsibility of parenthood due to the following circumstances:
a. Due to death of spouse.
b. Spouse is detained or is serving sentence for a criminal conviction for at least one (1) year.
c. Physical and/or mental incapacity of spouse as certified by a public medical practitioner.
d. Legal separation or de facto separation from spouse for at least one (1) year, as long as he/she is entrusted with the custody of the children.
e. Declaration of nullity or annulment of marriage as decreed by a court or by a church as long as he/she is entrusted with the custody of the children.
3. Unmarried mother/father who has preferred to keep and rear her/his child/children instead of having others care for them or give them up to a welfare institution.
4. Any other person who solely provides parental care and support to a child or children.
5. Any family member who assumes the responsibility of head of family as a result of the death, abandonment, disappearance or prolonged absence of the parents or solo parent.

SSS Maternity Benefit Claim
Finally, my nephew arrived after 9 weeks in great health and condition via natural birth. He is one month now. My sister, after getting my nephew's birth certificate, immediately send it to us to process her SSS Maternity Benefit.
Note that if you're not able to inform or notify SSS beforehand that you are pregnant, your maternity benefits can be denied. See article here to know how to notify SSS.
My sister also is living abroad as an overseas worker so my article is basically about being an OFW and getting your SSS Maternity Benefits.
Here are the steps that I took:
1. Plan the best time to go to SSS but don't delay going there. Knowing how busy SSS and all other government agencies every start of the year, I went to SSS last December 27 to submit the required documents for them to process her SSS Maternity Benefit. I was not disappointed because there are fewer people in SSS Del Monte branch that day as compared to other days.
2. Make sure that you have the Maternity Benefit Claim Application (SSS Form MAT-2). Check completeness, accuracy and consistency with SSS Form MAT-1 that you have submitted earlier.
3. You also need to bring the SSS Form MAT-1 (Maternity Notification) which was stamped by SSS.
4. SSS ID card is a must (I only had a photocopy of my sister's SSS ID)
5. Bring Philippine Passport, just the photocopy (of course!)
6. My nephew's Birth Certificate (authenticated by Philippine Embassy). Bring the original and a photocopy of the Birth Certificate. They will get the photocopy but need to see the original copy.
7. You need also the Authorization Letter signed by the person getting her benefits.
8. Wait for the SSS personnel to verify information online (i.e. contributions, notification etc.) and then wait for her to give you the Acknowledgement Stub that are stamped and signed by the SSS personnel.
Note:
1. Every time you transact with SSS, bring your SSS ID and an extra ID issued by the government.
2. If you are a representative, bring an ID issued by the government and the ID of the one you are representing. Also, don't forget an authorization letter so that you won't have any problems.

Renewing Driver's License at SM North Edsa (Updated)
My friend renewed her driver's license at SM North Edsa and this time without the drug test. I renewed mine last March and posted the steps last April (click here) but this was before the drug test was taken out of the process. It took her less than an hour to renew her license probably because she went there early.
Here's the updated steps in renewing driver's license at SM North Edsa LTO Satellite Office:
1. Present old license at Window 2 and get a form from the Medical table.
2. Submit the form Pay the Medical fee (PhP 100). A staff will give you a number and the receipt for the Medical Fee
3. While waiting for your number to be called, fill out the form Medical Certificate for Driver's License
4. Your number will be called for your medical test: vision and hearing acuity
5. While waiting for your name to be called, fill out Driver's License Application form
6. You will be called for your electronic signature and for picture taking/capturing (Window 1).
7. You will be called again for payment of driver's license fee (Cashier)
8. At this point you will wait again for the release of your Driver's License and Official Receipt.
Some things to take note of (some are taken from my previous article entitled "8 Steps in Renewing your Driver's License at SM North Edsa")
* Medical exam part - The personnel will check on your weight; have you look at a monitor, with some distance, and read some letter or numbers interchangeably covering your left eye or right eye and ask you a few questions.
* Bring your own pen.
* Wear something with collar and make yourself presentable.
* Priority is given to Senior Citizens, PWDs
* If SM North Edsa Satellite Office is offline, go to another LTO Renewal Center especially if your license is near expiry to prevent penalties or re-applying and re-doing all the tests...
Please see latest update in Comments Section by Mr. Rey Nocum. Thank Sir.
Will re-post/update this next year when I renew again my license.

Suggestions to Ease the Traffic in Metro Manila
I'm a proud Pinoy! I am applauding Filipinos who are helping themselves, being part of the solution and trying to think and do ways to try and test new ideas for the benefit of the masses rather than those who won't give chances but are mostly complaining and not following through with their complaints.
If I would be given the chance to change the rules of traffic to help ease the flow of traffic around Metro Manila, here are my suggestions.
1. What if we make the office hours of certain offices/industries in different shifts, in that way traffic rush can be minimized. I suggest that some offices, depending on the industry, would have a shift from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m., 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Example: Government offices, retail companies (not just malls) can have the shift from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.; while advertising agencies, research agencies and the like could work from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m.; meanwhile manufacturing companies can work from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
2. There should be designated buses that are "terminal to terminal" only and reservations can be done online. Schedule of the departure of trips should be strictly followed, although arrival time may vary. Example (SM North Edsa to SM Makati with no drop-offs in between).
3. Ban private vehicles from plying MAJOR thoroughfares if the only person inside the car is the driver unless it is an emergency (to be determined). In that way, the owner of the car will find a way to share the road with a family member, a relative or a friend going to the same direction. Note: the companion or passenger should not be paying any fare. I am suggesting this because I think having a passenger will lessen the volume of commuters, reinstitute the value of sharing and hopefully having a companion while driving will lessen the possibility of accidents.
4. Barkers who usher commuters to ride jeep or buses for specific routes should be given a different role or abolished. In the first place, commuters can read or ask the bus conductor if they have questions, barkers don't have to bark at commuters to ride specific routes. They don't add value to the commuting public nor the transport system, instead buses and jeeps are forcibly indebted to them. Some of them even cause trouble to the bus or jeep that do not follow their "rules".
5. I suggest that rather than ask traffic violators to pay penalties, why not penalize traffic violators with community work like cleaning the streets or "esteros", planting a number of trees and doing social work at the place where the violation took place especially if they are repeat offenders/violators. The objective is for the violators to pay using their "time" rather than money so that there would be a lasting effect of the "penalty". If they won't complete the task given, then their license won't be renewed on their next renewal schedule until such time that they complete their task. This should also be implemented to commuters.
6. JICA identified 3 main causes of traffic in 1999, namely: bad driving habits, inadequate traffic enforcement and poorly coordinated infrastructure projects.
My suggestion for inadequate traffic enforcement. We have so many laws, implement everything or make things simple. Lawmakers, help!
7. My suggestion for poorly coordinated infrastructure projects. Coordination is the keyword here.
8. My suggestion for bad driving habits - change driving habits that are bad. Identify and change it.
I don't know why, but when I went to Davao and Palawan, although there are no traffic signals in every corner, the traffic is so smooth there. People are just generally kind and are letting and giving way for other vehicles to pass.
In other parts of the country, taxi cabs are giving exact changes and whenever there is a senior citizen passenger, they would deduct 20% automatically to their fare even if the cab is full and not all are senior citizens.
It's just sad that here in Metro Manila generally (not all), drivers are just thinking about the "money" and getting through. I know of a few who would put their hard earned money to gambling or casino after a day's work. Is it the right kind of habit?
What I am saying is, we should all take part in changing the nation by changing ourselves, our behavior and attitudes. Yes, a single peso is worth a lot to those who have none, but out of greed, that peso won't make anyone change their economic status. So why not, let it go and live a life with a happy conscience.
I for one is making sure that whenever I cross the road, I am where I should be, the pedestrian lane.

8 Steps in Renewing your Driver's License at SM North Edsa
I just renewed my driver's license last March at SM North Edsa located at the G/F Northlink Building. My license has expired two years ago (almost!) that I decided to renew it before I would have to go through all the process again of taking the exam and doing the actual driving.
Before getting your driver's license, you have to undergo a drug test and medical exam at ATMA JAYA Drug Testing Center which is beside the LTO Driver's Renewal Center..
The following are the steps that I went through in getting my driver's license.
1. Fill-in forms for drug testing/medical. Make sure you fill-in all blanks with check marks on it. There are several pages, check all the pages so you wouldn't have to be called again just to fill-in something you forgot. The forms are attached to the clipboard with a pen. You will be asked to attach your expired license with the forms. Submit the forms and wait for your name to be called. You will be called to pay the amount of 450 (inclusive of drug test and medical exam). You will then be asked to wait for your name to be called again.
2. You will be called again for your picture to be taken and for recording of some information into their system. After that they will ask you to wait again.
3. I noticed that at this point, they will either ask you for your urine or do the medical exam part.

3. I noticed that at this point, they will either ask you for your urine or do the medical exam part.
- Medical exam part - The personnel will ask you to sign a form; then check on your weight; have you look at a monitor, with some distance, and read some letter or numbers interchangeably covering your left eye or right eye and ask you a few questions.
- Drug test part - The personnel will ask you to sign 3 strips of masking tape beside the personnel's signature. One strip will be attached to a container where you are supposed to put your urine. If you are not ready to urinate, you can buy water there.
4. It depends on whichever comes first, your name will be called again either for the Medical Certificate and/or the result of your drug test. After that, you can proceed to LTO Driver's Renewal Center.
5. Fill-in forms for renewal of license. You have to use your own pen here. They don't provide pens for signing their forms. Submit the form to the personnel with your Medical Certificate, receipt of Medical Exam and results of the drug test.
6. You will be called for the picture taking. I suggest you wear something with collar and make yourself presentable, it's your driver's license anyway.
7. You will be asked to pay the applicable fees. Mine is Non-Pro = PhP567.63 [License Fee = 350, Penalty = 150 (75 per year), and Computer Fee = 67.63).
8. Lastly, you will be called again for the release of your New Driver's License.
Of note:
- The drug test/medical exam takes more time than the actual renewal of license.
- Bring your own pen so that you don't have to borrow from ATMA JAYA Drug Testing.
- Wear something with collar or make yourself presentable for the picture taking.
- ATMA JAYA Drug Testing is open on Saturdays but the LTO Driver's Renewal Center is open only from Monday to Friday.
- Bring extra money if you need to buy water or if you need to have your lunch there.
Note: No more drug testing is required for license renewal.
