MANILA – An online report about a 'no visa' policy for Filipinos in the United States is a hoax, the Philippine Embassy in Washington D.C. said. "The embassy of the Republic of the Philippines would like to inform the public that there is no truth to what appears to be an online news report that the United States has announced a 'no visa' policy for Filipinos," the embassy said in a statement posted on its website. The faux news came from The Adobo Chronicles, which the embassy referred to as a "satirical piece that should not be taken seriously".

DISCLOSURE: Please refer to the websiteof the U.S. Embassy in Manila for official statement on this issue:
There has been no change in US visa policy for Philippine citizens wishing to travel to the United States. The Philippines has not been added to the list of countries eligible for participation in the Visa Waiver Program (VWP). If there are any changes regarding VWP-participant countries, the information will be reflected on this website. 
The fake report stated that the US State Department had announced a 'no-visa' policy for Filipinos.
"The Embassy has been in touch with the US Department of State, which has denied making such 
an announcement," the embassy said.

Meanwhile, the US Embassy in Manila said there has been no change in the visa policy for Filipinos traveling to the US.
