She should go the Local Civil Registrar of the place where she was born and ask the personnel there what are the requirements for late registration of birth (she'll probably be required to get, among others, an NSO certification that she has no birth certificate, i.e. negative results).

hello. maybe somebody can help me here.

 

this is the problem of my gf.

narealize na wala pala syang Birth Certificate (na fake pala) when she is submitting documents to her college school.

according to her, hilot daw nagpanganak sa kanya, hindi midwife.

kaya ang ginawa ng parents nya ay nagpakuha na lang ng B-Cert sa kakilala sa munisipyo. then yun, peke pala ang ginawang B-Cert nya.

paano ba dapat nyang gawin para magkaroon na sya ng legal na B-Cert.

 

Thanks in advance.

sa ilalim ng batas ng Pilipinas, walang bisa ang kasal niya (dahil kasal pa rin siya sa iba).

kung uuwi siya ng bago niyang "asawa" dito sa Pilipinas, at magsasama sila dito bilang mag-asawa, maari siyang makasuhan ng criminal case na adultery.

sir, can a girl legally marry abroad (U.S or Canada) even if her marriage in the philippines is not annulled? will there be any consequences? thanks.

1. who shoulders the transfer tax, doc stamps, notarial fee and registration fee?

kung sino ang mapagkasunduan niyo na magbabayad, i.e. kung pumayag kayo na charge sa inyo, eh di kayo ang magbabayad, kung mapagkasunduan nyo naman na charge sa may utang sa inyo, eh di sila ang magbabayad. In other words, nasa usapan nyo yan.

2. Magkano ba mga yun?

Transfer Tax - 0.5% of the selling price, or zonal value or fair market value, which ever is higher.

Documentary Stamp Tax - 1.5% of the selling price or zonal value or fair market value, which ever is higher.

Registration Fee - 0.25% of the selling price, or zonal value or fair market value, which ever is higher.

Capital Gains Tax equivalent to 6% of the selling price on the Deed of Sale or the zonal value, whichever is higher (Withholding Tax if the seller is a corporation)

Unpaid real estate taxes due (if any)

Simple lang ang tanong ko.

If somebody (who owes our company) is selling us their condo in exchange of their loan, who shoulders the transfer tax, doc stamps, notarial fee and registration fee? Magkano ba mga yun?

Thank you.

illegal pa din ba ito?

looks like it. approval by members of the federation IS NOT APPROVAL BY UNION MEMBERS. Plus, no individual written authorization by each union member. However, I suggest you go to DOLE and ask for advice on this (they would be the experts on labor matters, so you'd be getting advice straight from the horse's mouth).

thanks for the reply,i ask some of our union officers about the issue and they said that the deduction was approved by the members(unions of companies)of the federation when they had their assembly or meeting sometime ago,,though it was not implemented before in our previous CBA by the previous union president,,and since we have anew leader(president) they sat that its about time that it (10% deduction from the signing bonus as attorneys fee,1,400 strong X php 3,100)should be implemented,illegal pa din ba ito,,?

if, aside from terminating you, they want to file a civil case to claim compensation from you, then they can do so (ala naman pumipigil sa kanila upang gawin yun). whether it will prosper will depend on the circumstances.

thanks boss for the reply, follow up question po sana.

 

I don't think that they will do that. For example, If I approved the release of funds and it turns out that the signature of the depositor was forged (in a bank setting). Aside from terminating me, can they go after my house if they don't go through a criminal proceeding?

 

Thanks in advance!

Nope, just a division of the properties you own together (although the guilty party will have to forfeit his/her share in the profits of the community property - this depends on the ground for annulment)

sir ROCCO,

 

if matapos na yung annulment ko for example, will I have to give some sort of financial grant to my ex-wife as some sort of separation pay????? (if wala po kaming anak)

 

thanks sir....

 

1. do we really have to split the money and the properties down the middle?

the law actually allows the spouses to enter into a different sharing agreement. however, if you can't agree, then I'd say the Court will have to split the properties between the parties equally (if it fits into 50% of the properties, then you get the house and lot where you and the children are living in, since the children are with you)

2. do I still have to give monthly?

If the annulment is granted, not anymore if the kids are with you.

Sir in annulment do we really have to split the money and the properties down the middle? And do I still have to give monthly. The kids will be living with me not with my wife.

the worst thing an employer can do to you would be to make it appear that you committed a crime, then have you arrested and jailed for it.

good afternoon sirs,

 

I'm just curious and concerned.

 

what is the worst thing that your employer can do to you if you made a mistake with no bad faith?

1. can they go after your personal properties or termination lang?

 

My work is risky and the amounts involved are quite high.

 

Thanks!

it is possible for you to secure receipts from the BIR just like what doctors do

you apply with the BIR as a self-employed (actually you are a mixed employment individual, partly self-employed, partly compensation - but the BIR treats that also as a self-employed individual) professional practitioner. you also apply for receipts with the BIR

if you earn more than P550,000 per year, you pay VAT, otherwise you pay 3% on your gross income per month (you'll have to file a return every month - Form 2551M, with the LandBank if you earn every month)

Good afternoon sirs, i would like to consult for tax matters and i just posted it here parang ito lang kse ang nearest thread about my concern...

 

I am a professional engineer working in a company. but then i have few out-of-office works, that i usually do every weekends. I have a difficultly accepting other projects, especially government projects, because i needed to issue official receipt for their liquidation of my professional fee.

 

Do i need to make a company first and register to SEC or is it possible for me to secure receipts from the BIR just like what doctors do? I heard about vat-registered individuals...was that the right track for me so i can have a receipt booklet from BIR that i can issue to my clients?

 

thanks in advance and i hope our good MTC lawyers can help me...best regards to all!

1. saan ba dapat manggagaling ang pambayad sa abogado ng union sa pagtatapos ng usapin ng CBA? at magkano or ilang porsyento?

Ayun sa Art. 222( ng Labor Code:

No attorney’s fees, negotiation fees or similar charges of any kind arising from any collective bargaining agreement shall be imposed on any individual member of the contracting union: Provided, However, that attorney’s fees may be charged against union funds in an amount to be agreed upon by the parties. Any contract, agreement or arrangement of any sort to the contrary shall be null and void.

Ayun din sa Art. 241(o):

Other than for mandatory activities under the Code, no special assessments, attorney’s fees, negotiation fees or any other extraordinary fees may be checked off from any amount due to an employee without an individual written authorization duly signed by the employee. The authorization should specifically state the amount, purpose and beneficiary of the deduction; and

Lumalabas na ang pera ng unyon ang dapat na ipambayad sa abugado, hindi ang perang makukuha sa kumpanya bilang benefit ng empleyado sa ilalim ng CBA (unless papayag ang empleyado sa pamamagitan ng isang resolution na aaprubahan ng mayorya ng miyembro sa isang meeting at gagawa siya ng individual written authorization)

2. ang central organization ba kung saan kasama ang union ay may parte sa makukuha sa CBA?

ayun din sa Art. 241(n):

No special assessment or other extraordinary fees may be levied upon the members of a labor organization unless authorized by a written resolution of a majority of all the members in a general membership meeting duly called for the purpose. The secretary of the organization shall record the minutes of the meeting including the list of all members present, the votes cast, the purpose of the special assessment or fees and the recipient of such assessment or fees. The record shall be attested to by the president.

lumalabas na ganun din ang requirement para makakuha ng pera ang national organization kung saan affiliated ang unyon - kung papayag ang empleyado sa pamamagitan ng isang resolution na aaprubahan ng mayorya ng miyembro sa isang meeting at gagawa siya ng individual written authorization

saan ba dapat maggaling ang pambaayad sa abogado ng union sa pagtatapos ng usapin ng CBA?at magkano or ilang porsyento?paki qoutenaman sa abor code or kung saan mam ibinabase ang tnkol dito..ang central organization ba kung saan kasama ang union ay may parte sa makukuha sa CBA.?salamat

sa ilalim ng Section 15[1], Article VIII ng Constitution, may 90 days ang RTC, matapos i-submit ang kaso for decision, para desisyunan ito.

Salamat sir rocco, napakalinaw ng sagot mo..

 

Isa na lamang. yun bang same period na sinasabi mo sa paglabas ng decision ay may isa o dalawang buwan? kung mabibigyan mo kami ng idea ay malaking tulong ito...

 

Salamat ng marami.

1. Tama po ba na ma-late ang letter?

Hindi po tama. Dapat mabilis magtrabaho ang mga tao sa Post Office.

2. Pwede pa po bang questionin ito ng kapatid ko?

Oo, pwede niyang pagalitan ang kartero. Pero hindi niya pwedeng isisi ito sa hukuman, dahil nakikipadala rin lang naman ng sulat ang hukuman sa Post Office. ang dapat questionin ng kapatid mo, yung Order of Default, hindi yung late na receipt nung order. dapat kontrahin niya yung pagkakadeklara sa kanya in default (ito ay sa pamamagitan ng pagpapakita ng mabigat na dahilan kung bakit hindi siya nakasagot nung matanggap niya yung reklamo). kung wala rin lang siyang maipakitang dahilan, mahihirapan siyang ipa-lift ang order of default.

3. kung hindi namin tinaggap ang letter, maaari pa rin bang magrender ng judgement ang korte?

Oo, kapag registered mail at di nyo tinanggap, tumatakbo pa rin ang period (marami kasi ang nag-aakala na kapag hindi tinanggap ang sulat mula sa korte, hindi na ito uusad. Mali pong akala yan.)

4. ilang hearing ang pagpepresent ng evidence ex parte at gaano po usually katagal bago magrender ng final judgement ang korte?

Usually, isang hearing lang yan before the clerk of court (acting as a commissioner appointed by the judge to act as his representative). Yung judgment, same period as other cases submitted for decision (kaya lang, kung magaling maglakad ang kalaban nyo, medyo mabilis-bilis yan at wala ngang opposition dun sa reklamo)

Good day sa mga Abogado ng MTC...

 

Tatanong ko lang.. yung brother ko may civil case.. for some reasons, hindi nya sinipot ang mga hearings. so dumating ang time na nagmotion na ang plaintiff ng motion to declare defendant in default and to present evidence ex parte. last week, may dumating na notice from RTC na nadeclare na syang in default at pinayagan na ang plaintiff na mag present ng evidence ex parte. Pero dumating ang letter, tapos na yung date na kung saan ay magprepresent ang plaintiff ng evidence ex parte. Tama po ba na ma-late ang letter? Pwede pa po bang questionin ito ng kapatid ko?

 

Pangalawang tanong ko po, kung hindi namin tinaggap ang letter, maaari pa rin bang magrender ng judgement ang korte?

 

Third question po, ilang hearing ang pagpepresent ng evidence ex parte at gaano po usually katagal bago magrender ng final judgement ang korte?

 

maraming salamat po at nawa ay masagot ninyo ang mga katanungan kong ito.

Pwede na po ba itong gawing grounds for filing an annullment?

hindi po. kelangan pa rin magproduce ng evidence or ibang grounds for filing the annulment

Mga sir, tanong lang po kung 7 years na kayong hiwalay ng wife mo as in separated.

 

Pwede na po ba itong gawing grounds for filing an annullment?

 

Or kelangan pa rin magproduce ng evidence or ibang grounds for filing the annulment.

 

Salamat po in advance.

1. kung may record ka sa NSO ibig ba sabihin 100% percent valid ang kasal?

hindi. hindi naman requirement para sa validity ng isang kasal ang pagrerehistro sa NSO.

para maging mabisa ang kasal, kailangan may kapasidad ang kinasal, may lisensya, may kapangyarihang magkasal ang nagkasal sa mga partido, at may seremonya kung saan tinanggap nila bilang asawa ang isa't-isa (ang NSO registration, di requirement sa bisa ng kasal, pero ito ang matibay na ebidensya na ikaw ay kinasal).

kung walang numero ng marriage license sa marriage certificate, check mo sa Civil Registrar kung saan nakarehistro ang kasal mo kung may kopya sila ng license na ginamit sa kasal mo. kung wala, lumalabas na wala kang marriage license. Kung ganun, walang bisa ang kasal mo at pwede kang maghain ng petisyon para ideklarang walang bisa nga ito

sir rocco i just want to clarify...nag back read kc ako...may sinabi ka na i check ang married license sa lugar kung saan ito naka rehestro... to find out kung rehestrado ito...

my question is kung may record ka sa NSO ibig ba sabihin 100% percent valid ang kasal...????sa kaso ko kc walang number na nakalagay..nalaman ko lang ito nung nag submmit ako ng married certificate sa school na pinapasukan ng anak ko..nde nila tinanggap yung original ko..thats why i ask a new copy from NSO ..pero same pa rin walang number,,..ang pagkakaiba lang printed ito sa secured paper kaya tinggangap ng school...

meron. kung mapapatunayan mo na imposibleng ma-meet ang target na yan, illegal dismissal yun. ang tanong, ano ang ebidensya mo na imposible siyang ma-meet.

isa pa, kung ipina-alam na sa iyo ang target na ito nung time na na-hire ka as tech support, tapos pumayag ka naman, mahihirapan kang patunayan na imposible ito, otherwise bakit ka pumayag. tsaka, dahil pumayag ka nga, kahit pa imposible ito, pag di mo ito ma-meet, may valid ground na para tanggalin ka (pumayag ka na target yun eh).

kung hindi naman ipina-alam sa iyo ang target na ito nung na-hire ka, pwede mo itong i-contest. Good luck sa iyo.

magandang araw ulit sa mga magigiting at maginoong MTC legal consultants...

 

may isa pa akong ikokonsulta sa inyo...labor/employment related issue.

 

isa akong tech support agent, mangyari na mayrong mga scores/ratings na kelangan ko ipasa sa trabaho ko.

eto ngayon ang sitwasyon ko...

 

pinagsabihan ako ng aking amo (ang aking supervisor) na dapat pagbutihan ko ang isa sa aking mga scores/ratings OR ELSE aalisin nila ako sa project/account or worse baka tanggalin nila ako sa kumpanya.

 

pero, itong score/rating na binanggit ng aking supervisor ay napakahirap ma-meet at maabot lalu na sa panahon na ito na karaniwan sa mga tumatawag na client ay mga "computer illiterate" at halos walang alam sa computer kaya minsan kulang ang isang oras sa mga nasabing client. kaya, sa ayaw ko at sa hindi, itong score na ito ay maaring hindi ko talaga maabot.

 

ang tanong ko ngayon ay...kung sakaling matanggal ako sa trabaho dahil sa "not meeting the score/rating set by the project or account", mayron ba ako laban sa korte kung i-file ko ito as illegal dismissal?

 

ikinalulugod ko ang inyong tugon tungkol dito. maraming salamat.

1) ano ba ang pwedeng maging consequence kung patuloy na hindi ko mabayaran ang utang/obligasyon ko sa credit card?

tuloy-tuloy lang ang takbo ng interes, kaya lumalaki ang utang mo.

pag di mo ito babayaran, either ipasa ng bangko ang utang mo sa collection agency, in which case, aaraw-arawin ka ng mga ito sa pangungulit na bayaran mo na ang utang mo. tatawag-tawagan ka (sa bahay, sa office, sa cellphone, sa mga kaibigan at kamag-anak mo) para magbayad.

pwede rin silang maghain ng kaso sa hukuman para kolektahin ang utang mo.

2) makukulong ba ako?

walang nakukulong sa utang.

3)pwede ko bang sulatan/inform ang banko na ngayon pa lang ako naka-recover sa pagkawalan ko ng trabaho?

pwede. wala namang nagbabawal sa yo na sumulat sa bangko

4) pwede ba ako mag-declare na hindi ko pa kayang magbayad ngayon dahil ang kinikita ko ay sapat lang para sa mga pang-araw-araw na pangangailanga ko?

pwede. wala namang nagbabawal sa yo na gawin yang dahilan para di magbayad sa bangko (ang tanong - maniniwala ba sa iyo ang bangko, o di-kaya'y titigil ba sila sa pagkukulekta dun sa utang mo dahil sa dahilan na yan. HINDI. Isipin mo na lang - kung merong may utang sa iyo na matagal nang hindi nagbabayad, pagkatapos sasabihin sa yo na di siya makabayad dahil sapat lang ang kinikita niya para sa pang-araw-araw, MANINIWALA KA BA? TITIGIL KA BA SA PAGSINGIL SA KANYA? Ganun din ang bangko.

up ko lang...

Dahil ang nakalagay na tatay niya sa birth certificate ay ang lolo niya, kailangan niyang maghain ng petition sa court para mabago ito mula sa lolo niya tungo sa biological father niya. Magbabago kasi ang status niya (imbes na "anak" siya ng lolo niya, lalabas na yung tutoong situation na anak siya nung biological father niya), kaya hindi ito sa civil registrar lang. hindi rin adoption ang solusyon dahil nga tunay naman niyang ama yun. Correction of entry ang tawag sa petition na yan (yun nga lamang, lalabas na nagkaroon ng falsification at simulation of birth dun sa pagpaparehistro sa kanya bilang anak ng lolo niya, krimen yun - altho malabo naman na me magfile ng mga kasong yan).

lalapit kayo sa abugado para sa paghain ng petition na ito.

Good day mga chief,

Ask ko lang kung saan lalapit and friend kung gusto nyang pa update ang last name nya from his mother to his biological father?.. Ito kase yung case, yung father nya sa birthcertt nya yung lolo nya, and yung sa mom nya yung biological mom nya.

 

Di ba sa civil registrar lang ito or kailangan pa nyang mag pa adopt sa biological father nya? thanks saka gaano kaya katagal ang process? para kase maging benificiary nya yung mom and dad nya thanks.

1. pwede pa ba bumaba yong bail?

pwede kayong mag-file ng Motion to Reduce Bail sa korte. Usually pumapayag ang korte ng reduction ng up to 50% ng recommended bail, kung mapapatunayan nyo na walang pambayad yung akusado. The proof usually required to be attached to the motion are a barangay certification of indigency, a certification from the BIR that the accused is a non-filer of Income Tax Returns (dahil mahirap nga lang), and a certification from the City/Municipal Assessor na wala siyang real property

2. need ba talaga mag bail?

hindi naman, choice nya kung gusto niyang nakakulong habang tumatakbo ang kaso

3. bakit nag rerelase o naglalabas nang warrant of arrest once na-file ang complaint?

dahil kalimitan, hindi pupunta ang akusado sa hukuman para harapin ang kaso laban sa kanya (suspected criminal nga siya eh, usually nagtatago ito). ang warrant ay para mapilitan yung akusado na humarap sa korte

4. in case di pumayag nang hulugan or installment yong complainant ano dapat gawin?

harapin ang kaso sa korte, ayaw magpa-areglo eh.

5. whats the in and out of estafa case?

the best talaga niyan, kumuha na kayo ng abugado nyo, mahirap pag-usapan ang ganyan ng hindi nakikita ang ebidensya laban sa kanya. mabigat din na kaso yan dahil sa laki ng halagang na-dispalko daw (20years imprisonment na ang penalty niyan).

thanks rocco for the info,nagastos yong money thats why they file a estafa case, pwede paba bumaba yong bail? and need ba talaga mag bail? bakit nag rerelase o naglalabas nang warrant of arrest once nag file anng complain? and in case di pumayag nang hulugan or installment yong complainant ano dapat gawin?

 

may subpoena na and need to attend two schedule to answer the complain affidavit.

 

whats the in and out of estafa case? please provide more information or what to expect...please

 

 

Thanks,

depends on the kind of estafa (ang syndicated estafa ay non-bailable eh), although the amount of 350,000 would usually have bail set at 40T.

kung willing mag-settle, makipag-usap sa complainant para ma -settle na

mga bro or atorney help naman information about estafa case worth 350,000 how much ang bail, what to do if willing naman mag settle on a monthly payment for one year, whats the best thing to do and some in and out for this case...

 

thanks,

assuming na kinasal sila on or after August 3, 1988 (effectivity ng Family Code), walang bisa ang unang kasal dahil wala sa edad yung babae. sa madaling salita, sa mata ng batas, walang kasal na namagitan sa kanila. lumalabas na kinasal lamang sila nung 19 na si babae. mabisa ang kasal na yun (assuming na kumuha sila ng marriage license para sa pangalawang kasal), kung kaya't hindi niya pwedeng gawing dahilan ang pagiging minor nung wife nung una sila nagpakasal (not counted kasi yung unang kasal).

dahilan dito, hindi ito magagamit bilang basehan para ipawalang-bisa ang kasal niya (ang posibleng gamitin ay psychological incapacity sa panig ng babae dahilan sa panlalalaki nito)

sir rocco, querry lng po.

ung friend ko po kc kinasal sila ng wife nya nung 17 pa lng ung babae. tapos, nung 19 na ung wife, kinasal sila uli sa simbahan. gusto na nya hiwalayan ung babae ngaun kc may lalake na ung wife.

pwede ba nya gawing reason ung pagiging minor nung wife nung una sila ngpakasa for nullity? nasa 40's na age nila ngaun.

if ever, naregister ung dalawang kasal, did the second marriage cure the defectin the first marriage? or the second marriage be considered a bigamous one, notwithstanding same ung parties?

thanks in advance po.

The NSO does not change the birth certificate. After being informed by the Local Civil Registrar that the child will now be using the surname of the father, when you apply for an authenticated copy with the NSO, the NSO photocopies the original birth certificate it has on file, then adds a notation at the side of the certified true copy saying that the surname of the child is now that of the father. To repeat, no changes are made to the original, only notations are added to the certified true copy.

you apply for passport renewal by submitting the "new" birth certificate to the DFA together with the other documentary requirements. bahala na ang DFA dun.

sir rocco69

 

Will NSO main have a copy of the new birth cert when she applies for an authenticated one?

if so, how will she apply for a passport renewal (of which the previous passport still using mother's surname) ?

When my brother was younger (around 3-4 years old), our mother had a passport made for him. My brother never got to use it and the said passport was lost during Ondoy. Now my brother is planning on getting his own passport, he is now 23 years old. Should he process a passport like new or does he need to make an affidavit of loss for the passport he never got to use?

A Special Power of Attorney gives the atty-in-fact specific powers. If the SPA includes the power to sell the property, you can issue and sign the Contract to Sell and Deed of Sale. If the SPA only empowers you to pay PAG-IBIG, you cannot issue and sign the Contract to Sell and Deed of Sale.

since the SPA is inscribed at the back of the title, that means a copy of the SPA was submitted to the Register of Deeds. Go to the Register and get a copy of the SPA there so you can check what powers have been given to you in the SPA.

Hi, I would like to ask for some inputs.

My cousin purchase a House and Lot thru PAGIBIG, but went abroad while still paying the equity.

He continue it thru PAGIBIG POP and leave me an SPA and I was the one who issue the checks for PAGIBIG.

 

Now, he is already paying it monthly amortization for 4 years and no one using the house.

There is an interested buyer to purchase it in cash. But the buyer want to make sure that it will be transfer to him.

 

We made an arrangement to pay first partial amount that will be paid to PAGIBIG the full loan balance and the remaining balance will be paid once the title is released by PAGIBIG and that is the only we will execute the deed of sale. The buyer want to have a contract to sell, stating the terms of payment and when will be deed of sale be executed.

 

Since the owner is still abroad, and I am the atty in-fact before, can I issue and sign a Contract to Sell and Deed of Sale to the Buyer ? I lost my copy of SPA, we get a copy of title from the developer and it has an inscription in the title stating that the owner assign me as atty in-fact and the date SPA was executed.

Art. 13 of the Family Code says, in order to get a marriage license from the Civil Registrar:

Art. 13. In case either of the contracting parties has been previously married, the applicant shall be required to furnish, instead of the birth or baptismal certificate required in the last preceding article, the death certificate of the deceased spouse or the judicial decree of the absolute divorce, or the judicial decree of annulment or declaration of nullity of his or her previous marriage.

In case the death certificate cannot be secured, the party shall make an affidavit setting forth this circumstance and his or her actual civil status and the name and date of death of the deceased spouse. (61a)

Greetings dear sirs!

 

I have a barkada who has had his marriage annulled. He is currently planning to remarry his current GF who, incidentally, also has had her previous marriage annulled. Mas nauna pa ngang ma-annul yung sa GF niya by 5 years (2003), yung sa kanya nung 2008 lang. I just want to ask what requirements they need to submit to the civil registrar in order for them to get married. He showed me a NSO-certified true copy of his marriage certificate with the words printed on the side stating that it was Null and Void ab Initio (tama ba spelling ko?). Is this all they need? If not, what other documents do they need to secure and more importantly, where can they get those?

 

Maraming salamat in advance!
