Survey Limitations
The workers who were at home on vacation from their jobs abroad who have left earlier than April 1 of the reference year are also included as long as they worked full time abroad.
Respondents Knowledge The SOF does not ask for the total salary received by the OFWs. Hence, the remittances presented in the report may just be a part of the total salary received by the OFWs.

Inappropriate sampling frame The SOF sample households are the same as that for the Labor Force Survey (LFS).
Weight Adjustment Procedure The current procedures does not take into account any abnormal increase in the number of OFWs.
Comparability with other data on OFWs produced by NSO from the census as well as POEA The census uses a 5-year reference period while the SOF utilized a 6-month period, that is, April to September.
