Interviewer instructions

If the overseas Filipino has not returned home since his/her (last) departure, inquire for the date when he/she is expected to return to the country. For overseas contract workers, enter the month and year he is expected to return which is normally the date of expiration of his contract. If for some reason, voluntary or otherwise, the worker will terminate the contract before its expiry date and will then be
coming home, indicate the expected date of his arrival and make some notations/remarks about the shortened contract on the questionnaire.
Ask the respondent to give an estimate of expected date of return if the exact date is unknown. However, for cases where the overseas Filipino is not expected to return to the country, encircle "888888".
