Last night, I've read on a news article regarding opening of additional slots for passport renewal in the DFA appointment system. This is such a great news as everybody knows how late you can get an appointment in their system. I've tried to secure an appointment last June, to my dismay, the slot given to me was on October. It means I already have a schedule for my passport renewal but I need to wait 4 months for the appointment. AAWW!
Thank you DFA for opening up new slots for passport applications and renewals because a lot of Filipinos are waiting for this! I've tried to change my passport application appointment to an earlier date and got an appointment on September 2 at the DFA Megamall branch. Love it!
For walk in passport application or renewal, senior citizens and children age 7 below, need not book an online appointment. There's a priority lane for them and they can just walk in to the any DFA branch.
