“We advise the worker na sabihan ‘yung mga kasamahan niyang worker na sila na lang mag-submit sa amin. Tapos ipapadala na lang namin ito [via money remittance]. Di na namin ipapadaan sa employer,” he said in a virtual press briefing.

According to Secretary Silvestre Bello :

The Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) said that they are continuously processing applications and will provide updates from time to time.
