When i applied in October 2016, I used the REGULAR SRRV Application (ver july 2013), and just CHECKED "COURTESY" in Options (2nd line) (not SMILE; Classic; Human Touch I served for 4 yrs in USN, not retired, luckily still had a scan of DD214 in my puter...
Hey Soup; I am navy, served '66-'69 (did NOT retire), with DD214, never got closer to the Philippines than Norfolk.... I RENEWED my SRRV by email & LBC with Jackie in CEBU recently. SRRV nationality is American P-E Courtesy PC-W, deposit is $1400 (2016). Sent ORIGINAL deposit slip for PhP 520 (threw in extra for exchange) via LBC to PRA Cebu (with pdf of SRRV) on Oct 19, 2017. Sent LBC courier envelope addressed to MYSELF. Received NEW SRRV card on Nov 14. Could have renewed for 3 years for $30 USD, will do next year.... By the way, my pension is slightly over $1k, and after the original 1099 last year, never asked for amount again. Question was never discussed relative to navy courtesy and MAXIMUM pension.
Hi! About the 1500 deposit. My partner has been staying here in Phil. for 8 yrs. Now he decided to avail the SSRV Courtesy. The problem is there's no way he can transfer his money from wellsfargo to Philippines Bank. He don't have his US number anymore.. Can any help us what to do . Thank you.
He must have a cheque book!! If so mail a personnel cheque to a relative there and they can cash it then wire you the Money via Western Union or a variety of other services, Look into FaceBook Messenger also and connect to a customer service rep: Many banks have open contact on messenger. Once connected the generally will call you by phone and they pay for the call. Give all personnel details and answer all their questions and there should be little reason why they cannot reactivate or create an online platform to his account. I have personally done this! Good Luck
