Passport:New applicant

Finally I already got my passport. Some of you don't have a passport? Curious how to apply or how to process it. Very simple. First Visit their site to make a schedule for your passport application, IMPORTANT! Make sure before you make a schedule to DFA, you completed their requirements, you can see it on their websites on what documents you need to prepare.

For setting an appointment : http://passport.com.ph/set-appointment

Now, you have a choice what branch do you want, for me having a DFA branch is more convenient you don't need to go to DFA Pasay, just choose a branch that's nearer to you. When you're decided just click on the "BLUE Link" with underline, refer image above. And then that's it! Just follow the DFA's instruction.

Advice: Read their instructions carefully. 

I choose to process my passport at SM Manila morning Schedule, when I'm already in front of DFA Sm Manila, I think it's 4th floor, I forgot. The guards there will assist you based on your time. They also check my appointment paper that I printed on long bondpaper. I go to DFA with my original and xerox documents, when I entered the DFA, the guard assist me to go to information table,

And then when I got inside, in the information desk they will give you your referrence number and you will just for your term. 

1st Step:

And then there are employees that will check your requirements, I brought my NBI personal copy, my college Diploma, my college TOR transcript of records, SSS E1-form, my voters id stab,since I don't have my voter's id yet. ANd then I fall inline for the passport payment. see below

Second step

For First time passport applicants:

• Regular Processing (15 working days): P950.00
• Express Processing (7 working days): P1,200.00

3rd Step: Image Capture

For girls like me, they told me to remove my accessories. Such as:

 * Earrings

* necklace

*Mascara

*Contact lense

I also have to arrange my bangs, you're not allowed to smile infront of the camera :) Oh! I nearly forgot, you don't have to bring your own Passport Id that's the purpose of the  "image capturing" you don't need to wear a formal attire or with collar, casual will do. Dont throw your referrence number, you still need it for image capturing and payment. And finally, For the delivery payment, you'll have to pay 120.00 php . And voila you can go home na! :) just wait for the delivery of your passport. I hope this helps :)
