  1. philippine embassy in singapore is NOT GOOD IN SERVICE. Passport renewal is worst thing. after you finish the 8hrs long and slow line foe renewal. You will come back after a month they give you a notice letter and a claim date. but after a month of waiting they will ask you to comeback because the system is been spoiled( but the real reason is the package has not yet arrive, they use only cargo or shipping box to bring here in singapore) you pay the amount of 102$sgd (3,000+php). were thousand of pinoys renew it. they said that they will call you or email you if your passport already arrive but its not. NO CALLS AND NO EMAILS what kind of system is this! until now still not improving since 5yrs ive been here in singapore. they waste your time to back and fort. now they tell me they didnt know when the package will arrive. govt still not change at all!...

    Sad to hear that.I'll try to see any means to forward your concern to the authority. Thanks for visiting my blog. In cases here in Riyadh, so far ok naman yung feedbacks from some Kabayans on Passport renewal. Although before may isang case akong nabalitaan na nagamit ng iba ung information ng wife nya at un ang nailagay sa passport ng ibang tao para makalusot sa immigration. Sa ngayon smooth naman yung renewal although maghihintay ka nga lang ng mga month or so bago marelease ung bagong passport.Pero on the date na pinababalik ka eh nabibigay naman yung bagong passport.

    Based on the news, nagkakaroon po ng malaking bulk ng renewal of passports kaya po nagkakaroon ng delay. Nagkaroon na po ng advisory ang DFA na pwede ipa-extend ung mga mag eexpire na passport for another 1 year. Punta lang kayo sa pinakamalapit na Philippine Embassy para matatakan ung passport for 1-year extension.

    Sorry po pero hindi ko masasagot ang tanong nyo. Try nyo po tumawag directly sa POLO Office (0565094862). Sila po ang dapat na nakakaalam ng ganyang case. Goodluck..
