1. It has come to the attention of this Office that many claims for availment from the Property Replacement Fund (PRF) have been denied due to failure to comply with the 90-day period for submission of claim. Additionally, processing of claims has been delayed in certain cases due to incomplete documentation.
2. To minimize the abovementioned cases, this Office reiterates the guidelines as enumerated in DECS Order No. 3, s. 1994 entitled “Amendments to DECS Order No. 7, s. 1993”. All those concerned are hereby directed to disseminate the contents thereof. Additional guidelines are also being presented to facilitate preparation and processing of claims, thereby maximizing the availment of the Fund.
3. For immediate dissemination to and strict compliance of all concerned.
