Respective sirs/madam,

I and my husband are OFWs. Currently, my son is a transferee and an incoming Grade 7. As per the new school, he is an automatic ESC grantee . However, the school is asking us a Certificate of Tax Exemption since we are OFWs. My question is, how can I obtain this 
Certification?

Appreciate your response at the earliest.

Many regards,
Kriekstine Kaye Olan
