Argghhh!! I just renewed mine last Tues!! I need to apply for my Schengen visa early August kaya pina rush ko yung akin. Wala naman naka post na meron option for extension.

It states in the advisory those who renewed already may still opt to request for extension -- is this possible even if they punched already by old passport?

[smoothie]

^Tues din ako sis

Sad to say when I asked the officer about that. Tinuro lang ako sa Express option. Ang labo no?

Yun nga eh, may punch narin yung akin.

[lovely_carrot]

Pag may punch holes na, its considered invalid.

Hi mga sis,

Trying to track my sister's passport. Pero sabi ng LBC tracking- not yet registered? Ano kaya ibig sabihin nito? Kasi dapat July 21 pa ang delivery? Tapos wala sumasagot sa LBC.

Please help.

Thanks!

[smoothie]

^sabi nila give it 1 week daw. Baka na-delay sa printing. Pero I've read stories na kahit nasa LBC ay after 2-3 days pa madedeliver. That's why I chose 2go. Kasi ang dami kong naririnig na negative stories sa LBC.

Thanks Sis! Ang weird lang, 4 kasi silang magkakasabay na kumuha..yung 3 renewal kang,yung sister ko new applicant. Yung sa kanya ang wala pa...haaayyyy

[smoothie]

Siguro ibang process ang sa sister mo. Baka may extra process pa since new applicant siya.

[Cari]

Thanks mga sis. wala pa din up to now
