mga sis, need your thoughts lang- na metion ko na din before about sa pamangkin ko na gusto namin isama sa HK , he is 15 yrs old. New applicant din ng passport, hindi namin isasama ang parents nya sa pag travel kasi wala naman sila passport , question ko is required ba talaga na kahit isa sa parents nya dapat may passport or mag apply din ng passport para ma issuehan yung bata? Nag try kasi kami mag travel agency hinihingan kami ng passport ng kahit sino sa parents nya. Gustong gusto pa naman namin isama yung bata as reward kasi masipag mag aral . Kaso parang ang daming hassle. Ang hirap din maka connect sa DFA hotline , sana po may makasagot. TIA

Done with our appointment last Saturday sa DFA Alabang. Took us around 40 mins for me, hubby and our 6 yr old daughter. Organized and mabilis sila. First time ko ata nakakita ng govt agency na maayos yung process and di ako nabadtrip

Mga sis question lang sa frequent travellers dyan. Kung ang expiry date ng passport ko ay april 2018 , pede pa  ba ako magtravel this year, first week of october? Hindi ba ako kekwestyunin ng IO? TIA! kasi nagbook na ako renewal appointment sa DFA Aseana ng october din pero may biglaan lang na travel.

^hi sis. check mo sa website nung bansa na pupuntahan mo. may mga bansa kasi na required at least 6 months or more bago ma expire yung passport mo. nangyari kay hubby pauwi siya dapat sa uae kaso ma expire na yung passport niya in 3 months kaya hindi maprocess yung visa niya. ang mangyari niyan, sa embassy mag apply ka passport extension. mejo kumplikado nga lang process. yung kay hubby naman, sa barko siya kaya dun sa next country na lang siya bumaba.

Hi mga mommies..

Mag aapply sana kami ng passport for our 1 year old daughter sa main.. since pwede naman sya without schedule, pero my sister is planning na sumabay na since wala syang makuhang earliest schedule.. Papasukin kaya sya? Also, since hubby and I have our own passports na, pwede kayang ako nalang ang magdala sa daughter ko?

TIA

^Sis hindi papayagan sis mo kung wala siyang appointment unless Solo Parent siya with valid Solo Parent ID. If you are referring to DFA Aseana, meron pa silang slots na available for Aug30 and sa DFA Robinsons Fairview marami pang dates and timeslot na available. And yes pwede na ikaw lang ang kasama ni baby.

Hi mga sis!

I hope someone could advise me on this.

Last week, I called DFA Alabang if I could avail of the priority lane together with my 4 year old son. She said that it is only allowed on DFA Aseana. One of my friends also told me that she was able to do that in DFA Aseana just this year wherein she applied for her son's passport and she renewed hers at the same time.

I hve been calling DFA Aseana's office sine Monday to confirm, but I really cannot go thru their lines. Hope someone can help. I just need to have our passport asap. Thank you!

[foxlady]

^About 3 weeks ago sis, naka priority lane ang friend ko with his daughter sa Megamall.  His duaghter is 6 yrs old, walk in

[mysterioza_me]

You may avail of the PRIORITY LANE at DFA Aseana or at any DFA Satellite Office or Regional Consular Office to apply for your passport.

Best to confirm with them. Nag renew kami ng passport ng husband ko and new application para sa anak namin last year (she was 4yrs old) sa DFA Aseana din, hindi kami priority lane.

^ay ganun sis... naku hindi din pala ko pwedeng sumabay sa anak ko kapag nagparenew kailangan ko pa din magpa-appointment hay...

[foxlady]

Na-avail nung officemate ko yung Priority Lane nung sinama nya ang anak nya (5 yrs old) na kumuha ng passport.  Sa SM Megamall sila kumuha. 

[mysterioza_me]

^^If solo parent with valid solo parent id ka sis pwede ka din sa priority lane, but if not need mo nga ng appointment.

^2014 pa ata yan na kasama sa priority lane ang kids below 7yrs old. May mga empleyado lang talaga na di nakikinig sa orientation or don't do their homework kaya di alam mga patakaran.

[foxlady]

4 weeks ago lang nag renew yung officemate ko... kailangan kasi syang idispatch overseas for a meeting... so ang ginawa, kahit hindi kailangan, in-apply nya ng passport ang anak nya..

yung isa ko namang officemate (teammates kasi sila na parehong kailangang umalis agad), senior citizen naman na parent ang kinuha nya ng passport... pati sya nakakuha din...

both sa SM Megamall.

[bb]

ay thank you sa mga info nyo mga sis! sige magtry ako kumuha next week. salamat!!

[ellenmitchie]

Hi, question lang mga sis, nag rerelease din ba sila ng passport ng Saturday? Hindi ko kasi madaanan, I work night shift kasi. I didn't avail nung delivery, kasi malapit lang naman sa office ko.

[bb]

Hi mga sis! DFA have just added new slots for passport applications in their appointment system. Please secure yours now. Got my appointment on August 31, 2017 at DFA Megamall. Hurry!

You're welcome!

[cinammon_swirl]

Mga sis, just to update you. Thank you sa lahat ng sumagot po!

I went to DFA Alabang yesterday, priority lane since kasama ko ang 4 year old son ko. I asked the girl sa Verification step (first step) kung pwede na din ba ako sumabay magrenew together with my husband via Priority Lane, and they agreed naman with no questions asked.

So yun, I think it really depends sa DFA office na pupuntahan. We arrived at 10:30 AM and finished the process at 11:30 AM, so no hassle at all.
