RED RIBBON / AUTHENTICATION OF DIPLOMA, TRANSCRIPT OF RECORDS, AND RLE

Go to your College Alma Mater.

Tell the clerk you want your DIPLOMA, TOR, RLE (for nursing graduate) be authenticated. As for my experience, clerk asked me to give her the original copy of the documents together with 2 photocopies of each docs, and also brown envelop.

I paid 100 pesos for the authentication fee. I waited for about an hour before I finally claim my docs. The clerk told me that I'll be the one to go to CHED.

The following day, I went to CHED Regional Office III at Maimpis, San Fernando, Pampanga. I passed my docs, it is enclosed by the enveloped i brought and with scotch tape and had sealed by the clerk at the registrar's office.

 The front desk officer gave me a form to be filled out. After filling up the form, I went to the cashier and paid 40 pesos.

I went there November 5 2013. I got my claim stub, the date of confirmation of DFA release schedule was November 15 2013.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________ To confirm the DFA released Schedule, Control # & houseway bill no., pls call CHEDRO3 office at Tel no. 045-436-1847 on November 15, 2013. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________

It took me 5minutes to finish my task at CHED Pampanga. haha

November 15, 2013 at around 8am while riding on a provincial bus going to Metro Manila, I called the hotline, and asked for released sched, control # , and housewaybill no.

 Yes! I got it. This is it! I wrote those infos in my claim stub.

 I arrived at DFA Office of the consular Affairs ,Authentication Division, Aseana Business Park, Bradco Ave,. cor Macapagal Avenue Blvd. Paranaque City at around 10:30 am. I passed my claim stub at the window. There's a signage ( drop your claim stubs here ) I dropped it there. And seated waiting for my name to be called.

 I just followed what the clerk was announcing about what to do ( he's speaking with a micropone and a big speaker, so he can be heard clearly ).

I fell in line at window 5 i guess haha, ( i dont remember at all , haha). The docs was given, and was asked to CHECK THE SPELLING OF MY NAME. (ok it's all correct) I went to the cashier and paid 100 for authentication fee. I was suprised because I thought it costs 300 and will be paid separately but its not. It's a set, so those diploma tor and rle costs 100 only. haha. I passed the docs with the receipt. Again, I waited for my name to be called. Then finally, oh yes!!! blah blah blah! oh that's my name! Authenticated/redribbon documents is in my hands! haha!

 It took me less than an hour to claim my Red ribbon / authenticated Diploma, TOR, RLE. Ofcourse, it depends upon the population of people claiming their Docs.
