>> Friday, February 01, 2013

Will be going on a trip to the Iberian Peninsula sometime this year.
Starting as early as now with the Schengen Visa preparations.

Don't want a repeat of last year's really stressful application at the Italian embassy wherein we got our visa ONE day before the departure date(?!)

Rundown of the requirements
1. Certificate of Employment
2. Latest ITR
3. Leave of Absence from Employer
4. Bank certificate with Statement of Account of the past 6 months
5. 1 passport size picture
6. Credit card Statement of Account of the past 6 months
7. NSO copy of Birth Certificate
8. 6 months valid passport

Everything checked?

Step-By-Step Plan on How to Start Saving

Someone emailed me asking for help on how to Start Saving.
Posting my reply here for those who might be interested with the Step-By-Step Plan I created for her.

Step 1: Setup your SAVINGS or Security Fund (also called the Emergency Fund)

First thing that we have to do is to create your Security Fund.
Ang Purpose nito ay dito ka kukuha ng funds in case of unexpected events, like illness, na-Ondoy, etc.

Common ksi sa atin ang Umutang kapag biglang may pangangailangan.
But if you have a Security Fund, hindi mo kelangan umutang.
NO-NO sa aming mga Financial Advisors ang Utang =)

I suggest na mag-open ka ng Bank Account na SEPARATE from your Payroll account.
Puedeng BPI or BDO para nasa ground floor lang ng ELJCC Bldg (Note: this is the ABS-CBN Bldg where I'm working). Para madali din for you na mag-deposit.
Dito sa New Bank Account mo i-dedeposit ang Security Fund mo.

IMPORTANT: itong New Bank Account na ang magiging SAVINGS mo. And mag-wi-withdraw ka lang from this Bank Account IF MAY EMERGENCY.
