Tony Labrusca acquires work permit after NAIA incident

Filipino-American actor Tony Labrusca will no longer has any problems with his showbiz commitments after he was able to acquire a work permit from the Bureau of Immigration (BI).

It can be recalled that the BI Intelligence Division pushed for a deportation case against Labrusca for allegedly working in the Philippines without a permit.

BI Intelligence Division’s decision came after Labrusca became a trending topic on social media for allegedly shouting at an immigration officer at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal 1 after he was given the permission to stay in the country for only a month, when he applied for a year-long visa.

Since then, Labrusca has returned to work and started shooting for the movie “Ang Babae Sa Septic Tank 3: The Real Untold Story of Josephine Bracken”, which will star Eugene Domingo.

Director Joey Reyes uploaded several photos of the cast on his Instagram account and it was him who told netizens that Labrusca has already acquired his permit.

Since the incident that happened in NAIA, Labrusca has issued a public apology and has filed a petition for recognition as a Filipino citizen.
