Fees may be paid at the FWDC or at any point of collection by OWWA designated Collecting Officers in assigned areas/posts, or by other officers in posts/areas without an OWWA Collecting Officer.
The Collecting Officer conducts the collection process: issues the Official Receipt after payment, and then issues the OWWA ID card together with the Certificate of Cover (insurance) to the worker.
The OCW fills up the info sheet, submits it to the Collecting Officer, and pays the corresponding fees.
The designated cashier issues an OR distributed as: Original (white) to the payor; Duplicate (pink) attached to the Report of Collection; and Triplicate (blue) retained as the cashier’s file copy.
The designated cashier opens an account (preferably with Land Bank’s correspondent banks) and makes daily deposits; arrangements should ensure no withdrawals are allowed and only fund transfers to OWWA’s Land Bank dollar account are permitted.
They must be remitted to OWWA’s Capital Fund with Dollar Account No. 5005-00461-5 maintained at Land Bank of the Philippines, on the first week of the succeeding month.
Key requirements include: Cash Book—daily, maintained at post; Report of Collection—monthly, submitted in the 1st week of the succeeding month; Report of Accountability—monthly, submitted in the 1st week of the succeeding month; Bank Book—maintained at post; Statement of Account—maintained at post; Summary of Collection and Deposits—weekly, every Monday of the succeeding week.
The Collecting Officer segregates reports/ORs and info sheets, prepares the Report of Collection, and then transmits the reports of collection to the Home Office.
