9,332 individuals in Kalinga receive their  PhilID card

CITY OF TABUK, Kalinga (PIA) - - Some 9,332 Philippine Identification System (PhilSys) registrants in the province have already received their   Philippine Identification (PhilID) cards.  


Based on the report of Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA)-Kalinga, Philpost in the province received 11,464 PhilID   cards, of which 9,332 were delivered to the owners.   


Individuals who have registered  during the  second  quarter  of 2021 or seven months after registration  may  bring  their claim stub and check with Philpost Kalinga  as there  are still 2,132  PhilIDs that are  undelivered, as of February 23.


From May 31, 2021 to February 23, 2922, there are 112,011 individuals in Kalinga who registered in the national ID system.


Christian Dacpano of PSA-Kalinga said three municipalities namely Lubuagan, Rizal and Tinglayan are all covered under the National ID System.


 Registration in Balbalan is temporarily suspended on request of the local government unit due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The LGU has yet to issue a resumption order or advice to resume registration.


 
In Tanudan, registration has not resumed in the three remaining barangays since PSA is looking for a location with internet connection.


Registration is on-going in barangays Balatoc in Pasil, Colayo, Allaguia in Pinukpuk and Magsaysay in Tabuk City. There are nine barangays in Pinukpuk and 10 in Tabuk City that are still to be reached.


PSA advises walk-in registrants to visit   the PSA Kalinga office at Balinag Street (between SWAD Office and DeSame Hardware), Purok 4, Bulanao,   from Monday to Saturday, 8:00AM to 5:00PM. They should bring valid IDs or original birth certificate.

The PSA continues to encourage everyone to register  as  the PhilID  is valid proof of identity. (JDP/PAB-PIA CAR Kalinga)     .
