My Attempts to File for Renewal for PRC ID at SM Cebu. FAILURE

7/13/205

I'm writing this down to inform any professionals out there trying to renew their PRC licenses at SM Malls.

First of all, ever since I heard that PRC Cebu is transferring to Mandaue, I've made my decision to try to renew my PRC license at SM Cebu. This was a year ago. I dropped by SM to familiarize myself with the location first.
My prc license will expire on Aug 12 2015 so I went to SM on July 9 2015 to inquire about the requirements. Unfortunately, the computers were off-line so I just noted down the requirements.

First of all, you need to wear a formal attire. A corporate attire with collar will do.

1. Fill up 1 copy of the request form. They didnt accept my dowloaded form
2. Original and photocopy (back to back) of PRC ID
3. 1 passport size colored picture with complete name tag (not digital, meaning bring bondpaper with your name written at the ID picture shop. I went to Ayala Center, near DigiHub)
4. Payment
On saturday, July 10 I went to SM wearing my best corporate suit and brought my requirements.
Unfortunately (again) I was informed that they cannot enter my request in the system since my PRC license has not yet expired.  A big BOOOO!!! I didnt see that in the PRC site and even from other blogs.  I had to go home and change to a more comfortable apparel.

Tomorrow , my adventure with PRC starts again at Subangdaku, Mandaue City.  Reminder to myself, bring paste and liquid eraser.

I shall write down what happened after tomorrow. I pray it will be a successful day. Good luck to me.
