Exam Application for Real Estate Appraiser

Today, I went to PRC to apply for Real Estate Appraiser's Examination. Deadline is on August 10, 2015 and the exam itself is on August 30,2015. I would say, it was the longest day of my life!! Why? because I arrived in PRC about 8AM hoping to get home before 10.. but to my surprise, it was in chaos!! LET(Professional Teachers) application deadline for Repeaters is on July 31,2015! meaning 3 days left! it occupies 3rd floor and 4th floor of the building! and August 7,2015 for First timers that is why they are rushing! and cramming for the last minute! Anyway, it took me almost 7 hours for just the application itself..!
Okay, here are what I did: 1.) Buy 2 pcs Documentary Stamps = Php 42 inside PRC! 2.) Buy 1 pc Windowed Envelope with metered stamp = Php 25 inside PRC! 3.) Went to 4th floor but eventually instructed to fall in line on the 3rd floor due to overcrowded stairs going to 4th floor.  4.) Lined-up for STEP 1(Pre-Assessment), submitted 1 pc passport size photo while in a snake shaped loooong line.. and finally it's my turn after 4 hours(12pm)!! imagine!!!! in STEP 1, all your documents are to be evaluated.. they are a) TOR b) NSO Birth Cert c) NBI d) 120 credit units from Training for REA e) Cedula all photocopied.. TOR, cedula and NSO birth cert was returned to me. They will give you a card to be fill up with right thumbmark, paste you passport photo and use your cedula information and wait for your name to be called in the next step. 5.) Next is STEP 2(Processing), around 1pm my name was called.. and told me to proceed to 6.) STEP 3(Payment).. but before that, I went to mang inasal for a chicken. by 2pm i went to Cashier in the main building(ground floor coz the line is quite short. about 3 minutes standing!) and paid Php 900. 7.) STEP 4(ISSUANCE) went back to 3rd floor and submitted my papers with the official receipt.. aroung 3 pm, my name was called and that's it! I received my NOA(Notice OF Admission) stapled with my metered envelope.! Then 8.) STEP 5(go home!) I went home to Cavite, arrived by 5pm..Huh! Lesson learned? BRING food and drinks inside! for as not to starve yourself! じゃね！また！

MCX Muntinlupa-Cavite Expressway

It is also known as the Daang Hari-SLEX Link Road will serve as an alternative route from Metro Manila to Cavite and vice versa, cutting travel time by an average of 45 minutes. 

see NEWS. Some(Camellan's) call it Manuel-Cathy Expressway. hmmmm

I haven't tried yet but I see it almost everyday when I pass by going to Alabang since we are just a mile away.. and our "tambayan" with the kids is in Mc Donald's Evia. 

For me It's good when going to Manila without the going through the heavy traffic streets of Alabang-Zapote road. While if going home to Batangas using SLEX, I'd rather exit in San Pedro using Daang Reyna considering I'm from Meadows 1, Springville.. Well, if going back from Batangas via SLEX, then I'd exit in Susana Heights to use MCX and pay Php 17.. Good project! PPP(Private Public Partnership) project of PNOY they say.. and this gives higher Real Property prices in this area which is mainly the VISTA CITY! I recommend investing in properties in this vicinity! Drive Safe!

Bureau of Internal Revenue, Philippines - Certificate of Registration

In connection to "Starting a Business as a Sole Proprietor", today I just partially finished a big task in compliance to "Tax Reform Act of 1997".  Partially because I had to go back again to claim my "ASK FOR RECEIPT" (Not Available)! - it reminds me of LTO stickers for my plate numbers....  and my purchased set of OR's(Official Receipt) maybe by next week? I had to follow-up by phone..  or if unlucky, I have to get it in person!.. 
Well, I need this COR(Certificate Of Registration) because all of the Property Developers requires this BIR 2303 form before I officially called accredited with them.!  I actually did not know all about this tax thing when I was an employee of a corporation until today. It was done by the accounting department and I just signed the documents they requires us to sign.. Inside BIR office, we had a short seminar(about an hour) on how to file tax returns and what are the implications when you were a delinquent tax payer! it was scary because, a small mistake or late filing will lead to surcharges which is very scary!!! Watch out on the deadlines of filing! 

How to register your business name online in Philippines. DTI Registration of a Sole Proprietor オンラインでのビジネス名を登録方法inフィリピン（個人事業主版）

Having a new business as a Sole Proprietor? You have two choices, use your name or not. Well, if you decide to use your own name for your business then you don't have to register at DTI. Otherwise, do it online HERE. It is eBNRS - electronic Business Name Registration System as I understand.. First, think of a Business name that you think is the best for you of course! haha! Then, you may want to google it if it exists on the net.. or search on the DTI's "Business Name Search" menu. Anyway, you can check it on the "Check Name Availability" on New Application under Online services.. you can register easily because the website is user-friendly that it doesn't require you to be a computer geek! Note: be ready on your ATM card if you desire to pay it by Bancnet. It requires ATM number which are embossed on your card! GCash is another payment option.  Fees: P2,000 if National, P1,000 if Regional, P500 if City/Municipality, P200 if  Barangay level of Scope.. Be sure you have available funds in your ATM.! About the Certificate, you can download then print after your payment online.. easy! As for CMP, it is regional because I intend to have a branch in Batangas in the near future.. By the way, it is good for 5 years! That's it! Happy investing!
