Hi! I'm sorry to hear about your situation. It seems like your sibling was held because they were asked for a CFO (Commission on Filipinos Overseas) certificate. The CFO certificate is a requirement for Filipinos leaving the country to settle abroad as an immigrant, fiance(e), spouse, or permanent resident.
If your sibling has already left the Philippines and is currently at the airport, they may need to address the CFO requirement before they can proceed with their journey to the UK. Here are some steps they can take:
1. Contact the CFO: Your sibling can try to contact the CFO office as soon as possible to inquire about the requirements and procedures for obtaining the CFO certificate. They may have an emergency hotline or contact information available on their website.
2. Assistance from the Embassy: If your sibling is at the airport, they can seek assistance from the Philippine Embassy or Consulate nearest to their location. Embassy officials may be able to provide guidance on how to address the CFO requirement.
3. Reschedule the Flight: If it's not possible to obtain the CFO certificate in time for the scheduled flight, your sibling may need to reschedule their travel plans. They should coordinate with the airline for rebooking options.
It's important to address this issue promptly to avoid further delays or complications in your sibling's travel plans. I hope everything works out smoothly for your sibling.
