After filing the application for registration, wait for the approval of your application. If someone has challenged your application, there will be a hearing and a notice of hearing will be posted.
According to Jimenez there will be no satellite registration, so be there as early after all 3 days from the 10-day period will be on weekends so there’s no classes and there will be no excuse not to be there and to be late. Do your part and register on the next election!

Thank you for the info! By the way, if you were already registered for the National Elections, do you still need to register for the Barangay Elections?
You don't need to register again if nakapag register ka na noong national election it will be for the new voters
