He obtained his Law degree from the University of the Philippines and topped the 1989 Philippine Bar Examinations with an 86.18 percent rating. Despite this, he is reported to have sworn under oath in his Personal Data Sheet that he had never acquired the status of an immigrant or permanent resident of another country.
To further complicate matters, it was only in Aug. 2021, or a full four and a half years after he started traveling on a Philippine passport, that Teodoro formally applied to reacquire his Philippine citizenship.
