Dear Admin. Manalili:

This is in reference to returning OFWs to Nigeria vis a vis the deployment ban to Nigeria. Per your verbal updates to us on July 28 during CMA-FES' RTD on Bilaterals on Migration, POEA will issue OECs to all returning OFWs from Nigeria who have existing valid work contracts and/or holders of Nigerian residence permits.

We have relayed the good news to our OFWs in Nigeria and those who were here on vacation confirmed the arrangements at POEA when they processed their documents as Balik Manggagawa.

It is in this connection that we write to you again. We would like to request a copy of the POEA memorandum in regard to the issuance of OECs to returning OFWs to Nigeria. This is for record purposes and to make the issue clear to everyone concerned.

A written memorandum will also give confidence to the OFWs. We trust that we can secure a copy of the requested document the soonest time possible.

We thank you on behalf of the OFWs in Nigeria.

Sincerely yours,

ELLENE A. SANA
