    this long-line-of-passport-renewals, has been going on for some time now.
    i think it is time for the DFA to really do something effective to solve the problem.
    an obvious solution is to set up more renewal centers, and/or extend the working hours of the renewal centers.
    keep them open full-time seven days a week.
    put in two shifts and keep processing folks deep into the night.
    hire more workers if they have to.

    Walkin lang or by appointment?

    If by appointment, was it done online? When did you set the appointment?

    Lucky you. Been trying to get an appointment online since early this year, laging walang available dates anywhere.

    Scam kung scam pero ask yourself alin ang mas mahalaga para sa yo? Ma-renew agad ang passport o magbayad ng additional 300?

    I choose the latter kasi if I get sent abroad by my company on business and my passport is expired, that's a lost opportunity that's worth more than the convenience fee.

    baket kailangan mag bayad ng extra, parang lumalabas eh kasalanan pa ng tao bayan na hindi kaya ng gobyerno gampanan ang tungkulin nila..

    pera pera na talaga ang labanan, parang suhol para ma pa bilis sa pila, sabagay kahit si disney land eh kailangan mo mag bayad ng extra kung ayaw mo pumila

    basta ahensya ng gobyerno pahirap sa tao bayan, recently lang daw sa intl airpot t3 pag ka tapos mo pumila sa immigration booth at ma check ang documents at matatakan ka ng exit stamp sa passport eh may final check pa din ulet sa imigration na kailangan i check ulet ang documento ninyo, pero ngayon isa na lang immigration officer ang mag check sa lahat ng papeles ninyo para sa lahat na pumila sa immigration booth. kaya pag ka haba ng pila...

    My Mom renewed her passport this week at SM Aura and it took her less than 30 minutes! I'm glad that over the years the processing time has improved. Though I wish we'd have non appearance again pre 2000s. Even the US has non appearance passport renewal, so I don't know why PH can't do mail in renewals like in the past.

    BTW, ganda ng US passport, the data page is like an ID na

    how much effort in getting that appointment?

    ... pano naman yung picture na lalabas sa pasaporte, kung hindi mag-face to face?

    I got the schedule one month prior to the appointment

    Doc, don't you remember when PH passport renewals were non appearance? You mail the photo with the application. US passport renewal is still that way until now.

    Just had our 8yr sons passport renewed last week, off site din sa Robinsons Magnolia, registration was pretty painless (just got lucky?) paid everything online... worth little extra I paid for the convenience of just going to the mall and queuing up there took as less than 1 hour to finish.. Mas mahal pa yung naka in namin sa Yabu after.... [emoji16]. Bug ata sa system nila yu g place of birth as it also happened to our application asked the encoder on site to fix it..

    Glad to hear that. I already have an appointment set. I used to go to Metro sa ATC pero di hamak na mas accessible ang Robinsons.
