Baguio City – In the continuing implementation of the Philippine Identification System (PhilSys) in Cordillera, the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) successfully registered the biometric data (Step 2) of more than 500K Filipinos and resident aliens across the region for the first six months of 2022.
According to the PSA, provincial and mobile registration centers have registered a total of 574,823 registrants as of June 30, 2022. These make up 67.8 percent of PSA’s January - June target in the Cordillera Administrative Region (CAR).
The PSA’s provincial offices in CAR aimed to register 848,205 persons in the 1st Semester of 2022 for the Step 2 registration of the Philippine Identification System program. The target was allocated to the six provinces as a proportion of their population based on the 2020 Census of Population and Housing.
The following are the registration rates of the various PhilSys registration teams by province: Abra – (60.1%) of the targeted 90,350. Apayao – (89.6%) of the aimed 27,800. Benguet – (71.6 %) of its 563,255 allocation. Ifugao and Kalinga have the same target of 62,550, registering (44.5%) and (65.4%) respectively. Mountain Province was able to register 56.1 % of its 41,700 allocation.
Per data from the Philippine Postal Corporation (PhilPost), 50,499 PhilID cards have been delivered to recipients as of May 27, 2022, which make up (11%) of the PhilSys registrants in CAR from May 2021 to June 30, 2022. Those still without the ID can check the status of their PhilIDs by going to PhilPost’s tracking site (https://tracking.phlpost.gov.ph), and entering the PhilSys Registration Transaction Number printed at the transaction slip provided to all Step 2 registrants.
Recently, the Philippine Statistics Authority launched the PhilSys Check, a website which enables a person/party to verify the authenticity of a PhilID card and the information contained in its QR code. PhilID cards can now be verified through https://verify.philsys.gov.ph.
