was he granted refugee status before or after the black list ?

if he over stayed, got black listed and then given refugee status afterward. I think you can just bring that up at your local PH embassy rather than writing to the commissioner

You can wait and see if you get a reply, but given the current COVID crisis, you'll probably just have to be patient.

How did you send the mail ? just FB or email? They probably get flooded with so much mail, it gets overlooked (dont quote me on this). If you have the finances, you can hire a lawyer in the PH and I'm sure he/she can have it sorted pretty quick.

You can do a search using keyword "black list" on this forum, there are a few topics already.
