    Hi! Yung mga di na postpone at di na resched as is lang ba yung schedule? You need to update us as soon as possible. Yung mga TOR namin at birth certificate di pa ma iprocess because of the ECQ and I know you are fully aware na yung TOR di po matatapos in a day. July August exams please do update us. Parang unfair naman sa part namin na nagstart na yung filing then under ECQ pa kami. Give us extensions naman po sana. Please update us. Mahirap naman if wala talagang announcement. Thank you. I hope you understand us naman po.
