What do you need to bring, you ask?
- The Calamity Loan Application Form (CLAF). You can download this bad boy from the Pag-IBIG website (https://www.pagibigfund.gov.ph/FAQ_CLP.html) or snag one from your nearest branch.
- Proof of your calamity woes. This could be a barangay certificate, media reports, or anything official that says "yep, this person got hit by [calamity name]."
- Valid ID, proof of income, and any other documents they ask for. Consider it your loan application starter pack!
Remember, you gotta act fast! You only have 90 days from the date the calamity is declared to apply for this loan. So, don't be like that friend who waits until the last minute to finish their group project. ⏰
