BI main office, 9mo extension first.

True, though the 9-month extension is the visa waiver route at Intramuros, not a long stay visa proper.

Ties to a sponsor's 13A, not the waiver.

Worth adding that ACR I-Card registration comes after, at the same main office, once you're past 59 days.

That first step is really a visa waiver extension filed at the Intramuros office, so bring your passport, arrival stamp and onward ticket.
