FAQ — Frequently Asked Questions On Pag-IBIG Housing Loan, Financing And Membership

Over the past couple of months we have launched this website on Pag-IBIG Financing, we have been bombarded with questions from Pag-IBIG Members and Overseas Filipinos Workers. The questions most commonly revolved around three categories, namely:

Pag-IBIG Membership — How to be a member, Branches overseas, status of membership, ID Number, etc.
Housing Loan — Loan application process, when to avail, how much, etc
Pag-IBIG Overseas Program (POP) — a lot of website visitors are Filipinos based in other countries and they have a lot of questions on about POP.
This is to be expected. And as the website grows, this Frequently Asked Questions Page is expected to grow in response to the most pressing questions we receive from website visitors.

In this page, we try to collate all of these common and repeating questions and provide the best answers possible with reference to other articles already written.

We hope that this page will be your first stop for any new visitor on this website.

Some countries do have Pag-IBIG branch, partner establishment, or satellite office. Please check the Pag-IBIG Overseas Program Directory page to know if one is available in your host country.

2. I use to work in the Philippines, but I am now an OFW. What happens to my previous contributions? Can it be combined with my Pag-IBIG Overseas Program contributions?
