Florendo said they had to innovate after they noticed that only very few people now visit their office to register for the National ID System. Others no longer find the need to secure a PhilSys ID because they already possess other government-issued IDs. “Instead of just rely[ing] on the physical ID, we had this innovation or strategy that we can also print on paper. In other words, once you have the paper and you have the card, you have two IDs already that you can use,” he said.
“All they have to do is give the transaction number and once we search it kung available siya, even though the card has not yet arrived to them, amo na na i-print,” he said.Florendo said delays can’t be avoided in the issuance of the PhilSys IDs because of the need to check and verify the information provided by the applicants.
