DFA for Filippine Passport

[anthonytt]

Hi, all, Went to DFA yesterday to get our 1 year old a filippine passport. Now I know adults need to make an appointment online and it's almost a 3 month waiting period for a appointment. Anyway, Myself, my wife and our son were literally in and out of there in under 30 minutes! They took us to the front of the line to a dedicated window for I guess minors ? Handed them the required documents. Then, went to the Cashier to Pay P1,200 for Rush (10 days). Then went to the next window to have his picture taken. Then they gave us a receipt to pick up his passport in less than 2 weeks. Happy as a pig in S**t. But when I got home I saw on the official DFA website an announcement dated just a few days ago that there will be delays in releasing passports sit to the company they hired to print them are having difficulties. So, well see if it's there in 2 weeks. X my fingers. This is in Cebu
