DSWD reiterated this in a statement released on Sunday, May 10, saying OFWs are among the “vulnerable” sectors that are “most affected” by the lockdown imposed due to the coronavirus pandemic. Among those who may avail of the subsidy are families of OFWs who were repatriated or banned from travelling outside the Philippines due to COVID-19 as well as relatives who have not received any remittances from the OFWs from January 2020 until the lifting of the lockdown.
