The Immigration Letter of Reference is a crucial document required by Philippine immigration authorities for various visa applications and immigration processes. This document is typically requested when foreign nationals seek to enter, work in, or extend their stay in the Philippines. The letter must conform to the requirements set forth by the Bureau of Immigration and may need to address specific criteria depending on the type of visa being sought. The content should include the referee's credentials, relationship to the applicant, detailed information about the applicant's character and purpose of stay, and any relevant professional or personal information that supports the immigration application. In the Philippine context, these letters often need to be accompanied by supporting documentation and may require notarization or authentication to be considered valid by immigration authorities.
