The educational assistance is given to students in crisis, for their school supplies, projects, allowance and other school fees. The release of AICS Educational Assistance is scheduled every Saturday from August 20 to September 24, 2022.
“Only those who received a text or email confirmation are accommodated in the payouts. Strictly no walk-ins. Online registration has been implemented for the field office to manage the influx of applications. Those who successfully registered will receive a text or email confirmation. However, they still have to go through the assessment process,” Lucero explained.
For those who were not able to register, DSWD-7 will announce the date of the reopening of the link for online registration. Areas not covered on the specific date of payout, the schedules, and venues will be announced in the succeeding days prior to payout. Clients must ensure documents are complete and bring two photocopies of every requirement.
