MANILA<\/strong>\u00a0— Although getting a national identification (ID) card is not mandatory, the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) on Saturday said it will recommend it for overseas Filipino workers (OFWs).<\/p>\n

\u201cAng balak po namin ay ipo<\/em>-propose\u00a0po namin sa<\/em>\u00a0POEA (Philippine Overseas Employment Administration)\u00a0na sana iyong mga<\/em>\u00a0OFW\u00a0natin bago sila lumabas ng bansa para magtrabaho sa labas ay makakuha na sila ng<\/em>\u00a0national ID (We plan to propose to the POEA that our OFWs, before they leave the country, secure a national ID),\u201d PSA head Lisa Grace Bersales said in a radio interview.<\/p>\n

Bersales said though that OFWs can also secure their national IDs while abroad by visiting the Department of Foreign Affairs\u2019 (DFA) consulates in their respective countries.<\/p>\n

She said the consulates are where OFWs secure their birth certificates, marriage licenses, among other identification documents.<\/p>\n

She added that a national ID will also benefit senior citizens and persons with disabilities.<\/p>\n

\u201cAng<\/em>\u00a0vision\u00a0uli ay hindi na natin kailangan ng<\/em>\u00a0(The vision is that there will no longer be a need for the) senior citizen card, eventually. For senior citizens to avail of all of the privileges, then a national ID is what they can show,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

According to Bersales, parents can register their children\u2019s national ID soon as they secure a birth certificate.<\/p>\n

She, however, said biometric can first be captured when the child is five years old and the ID will be renewed when they turn 18.<\/p>\n

\u201cSiya po ay pupunta sa<\/em>\u00a0registration center to capture biometric and all other information.\u00a0Ang naisip po namin,<\/em>\u00a0five years old\u00a0ang una<\/em>\u00a0(The child has to go to the registration center to capture biometric and all other information. We are thinking they can start with those as young as five-years-old),\u201d Bersales said.<\/p>\n
