thanks again there.. Still no idea how long it can take from start to finished passport in hand...

 

Tunji! How long is a piece of String because this what you are asking. Here in the Provinces my Wife waited only 14 days for the delivery of her Passport. In Manila she (your lady) can go pick it up.

Once the Application is Accepted, Azon was told it would be 5 working days to issue, she could pick it up herself at DFA (Cebu) or they would Post it. Now Tunji, this issue clearly lies with your lady friend.
The Sooner she gets the Application in and accepted, the Sooner she gets the Passport, BTW, maybe there is an Issue with the Police or NBI Clearance. Just a thought but I did send a link about all the requirements.

If she can't produce all the Requirements, I would be asking Why?

This is the Philippines, so the the correct answer is "who the hell knows?"

First you have to go hither and thither collecting all the required crap whose price seems to be at the whim of the barangy and/or the person collecting the money. An example is one barangay counselor offered to get my gf barangay clearance for 800p .. special foreigner's gf price no doubt.

We used Dreamland Travel next to BOI. The lady gave us a list of all documents required, we got them and turned them in Aug 6 along with 1800p. She asked when we wanted the appointment - Bacolod could be next day, Cebu a couple of months. We went to Bacolod Aug 12, met the contact lady, did the deal at the passport place and was told probably around Sep 15 .. although they didn't say which year and we're still waiting. We've followed up and have been told "it's delayed" .. who would have guessed?

 

Mileage will always Vary person to person and Office to office but Tunji, This is How it Should happen, the Link will tell you what she needs and how to go about it. You can do all the checking on things from you end and then tell or Ask her what is happening, best of Luck my friend.

Thanks for the info... She says she already applied and did all and is just waiting to have the passport released... This is four to five months ago and 22k piso ago as well.... And a week or more ago, she ask me for more money if i want her passport released.... I said no cause 22k is enough to get a passport, nice cellphone and transportation and eat out with the whole family... Just wanted 2nd opinion on the matter of how long it can take , so i can have an idea if i am getting strung along by her or how long i will have to spend in philippines myself if i choose to come get it for her myself so she doesnt just wander around spending my money and getting nowhere but back online to ask for more and more and more... Thanks for the info..

 

Sounds about right what you said.. Never asked for receipt of her application.... I just asked to see her passport before i make any more contributions to her purse over there.. I will ask that if we chat again and she insist she already applied and is just waiting for release of it... Wonder if she needs to pay more to release it? thats what she claimed last time... She has a salary from work and a nice phone i bought her, she can sell it and pay her passport if shes serious and then i can get serious again and buy her a new phone...
