LBC po ang nagdedeliver ng passport. With tracking number naman yun check nyo sa resibo nandun yun if you chose for delivery instead of pick up

[rowenoh183]

mga sis may nakatry na ba sa inyo magparenew sa dfa lipa batangas? by appointment din ba dun?

[minatay91]

I can finally rest well. Got my passport after many months of procrastination.. If I didnt claim it after 6 months, what will they do with it?

[smm_0411]

Bakit ganon ang appointment system pag nag click ako ng time lagi lumalabas ay for agency application. 

[ilovejdy]

^i gave up on online appointments.
March 1 pa sched ko but i needed to renew my passport ASAP. So I was choosing between walk-in to Pampanga or Batangas or Lucena. I chose Lucena since wala silang cut-off sa numbers. Well they will accept up to 500 applicants for new & renewal but only a few people go there.. so i doubt if they will reach more than 400.

Anyway I got there at 10am. If you are used to other sites ...alanganin kana ng ganyang oras. But I still got number 161. The process though takes the whole day. Mainly because of 2 reasons:
1. Few employees
2. their process isn't as polished as Manila sites...

medyo mabagal pa sila. I thought mabilis na ako since renewal nalang pero inabot padin ako ng maghapon. But I must say maayos naman pila and mababait ang employees and SG's...kaso mabagal lang talaga process.


If only I didn't need to get a new passport right away, hintayin ko nalang sched ko sa alabang..kaso March 1 pa un.

[mama squeak!]

I availed of DFA's express service and true enough na release yung passport ko after 7 working days. Then plus one day since pina-deliver ko thru Air21. Buti na lang naayos na nila yung naging problema before.

[chicafabulosa]

^mama squeak, hi sis, buti ka pa may air 21 dun sa megamall no choice LBC talaga. kabado nga ako baka maulit na naman yung nangyari sa akin before sa lbc aseana nila haha

[mama squeak!]

^yup dami choices sa Aseana. I chose Air21 kasi kilala ko mga bosing nila so in case magka-problema madali na lang magreklamo.

[23mirAmir]

Hi sis mama squeak!, ask ko lang kung new design na ang passport na nakuha mo? gusto ko sana new design na pagnagpa renew ako, nagpaextend lang kasi ako ng validity last october..

[chicafabulosa]

23mirAmir, so far wala pang new design na nailalabas. My cousin naman just got her new passport last week, old design pa rin

Hello,

May nakatry na ba kumuha ng passport (renewal)  sa SM Manila?
Plano ko kasi dun na lang since mas konti siguro ang tao kesa sa Aseana.

When I renewed my passport sa Aseana last year inabot pa ko ng hapon kahit naka courtesy lane nako. I am planning to renew my daughter's and my mom's passports paguwi ko sa December. Pero syempre ikukuha ko sila ng appointment.

Sana may makapagbigay ng feedback, thank you.

[honeybunny]

if your appointment is at 10am, pwede ba akong dumating ng 10-ish dun? or dapat mga 10minutes earlier ako? i case i get late, hindi na ba nila ako iaccomodate? thanks

[chicafabulosa]

When you print your appointment it says there be there 30 minutes early.

[honeybunny]

^thanks sis.. how many hours should i allot  for it?i have doctors appointment kasi i dunno if i can make it pa or reschedule na lang yung doctor.. thank you

[chicafabulosa]

I suggest you resched your drs appt. since you will never know how long it will take lalo na minsan nagloloko yung system nila.

Sa SM manila ako nagrenew but that was 2014 pa. Mabilis lang dun i had a 10am appointment and before 12nn tapos na ko.

[sweetie28]

Hi good evening mga sis ask ko lang kung pano po pareschedule ng appointment online for new applicant need ba ipacancel yung unang appointment bago makapag schedule ulit online or pwede disregard na lang yung unang appointment and pa schedule na lang ulit online, ito kasi lumalabas pag click ng cancel appointment "Sorry
Self-service cancellations are not available"
Thank you

[honeybunny]

^alam ko macacancell na yun automatically sis, just set up a new appointment na lang.

[Heatherette]

^^Nag-mocked book ako tapos pasok pala so hinayaan ko lang then I booked again for a date na available talaga ako. Lalabas dun sa huli papipiliin ka sa 2 mong na-booked alin ang final booking mo

[smm_0411]

^^sis, you can't cancel your current appointment.  What I did was to make new appointment using different email add kasi if you will use the same email with an existing appointment sasabihin ng system na agency ka. So i sent email to DFA and they told me to use different email.  When you choose your new date it will show your existing appointment  at papipiliin ka kung ano ang gusto mo schedule.  HTH
