UPDATED 2018: Check your documents before going to the DFA to get a Philippine Passport
Yes guys it’s important to check your documents first before going to DFA to get a Philippine Passport. I don’t want you to experience the same thing that we have experienced. It took me a month to finish the whole process of correcting my son’s PSA birth certificate.
I. FOR FIRST TIME PASSPORT APPLICANTS:
GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
• Personal appearance
• Confirmed appointment
• Duly accomplished DFA Passport Application form– may be downloaded from the DFA website, www.dfa.gov.ph
• Birth Certificate (BC) in Security Paper (SECPA) issued by the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) or Certified True Copy (CTC) of BC issued by the Local Civil Registrar (LCR) and duly authenticated by PSA. Transcribed Birth Certificate from the LCR is required when entries in PSA Birth Certificate are blurred or unreadable. (REPORT OF BIRTH DULY AUTHENTICATED BY PSA IF BORN ABROAD)
• Valid picture IDs and supporting documents to prove identity (Please refer to List of Acceptable IDs and List of Supporting Documents)
The following applicants need to submit additional requirements:
- Married women — marriage contract issued by the NSO.
- Senior Citizen with Senior ID
- Person with Disability (PWD) with PWD ID or visible disability
- Solo Parent with Valid Single/Solo Parent ID
- Pregnant women with medical certificate
- Minors seven (7) years old and below
OUR STORY:
Getting a passport can be as fast as 30minutes if you will not encounter any problem in your documents. We went there on a Friday afternoon and the process was smooth. My husband did not encounter any problems with his papers, unlike with me and my son.
As per the the documents needed posted on the DFA website, I brought with me an original NSO copy of my birth certificate and marriage contract issued by the Local Civil Registrar and duly authenticated by NSO.
But they told me that they won’t accept it because they want a latest NSO copy.
I didn’t know that there’s an expiration date with government documents. I don’t get the logic why they need the latest copy. The information in it is still the same even if I get a new one, right? hmmmm….
But, I can’t do anything but just to follow.
On the other hand, Ren’s NSO birth certificate problem is that the “Place of Birth” area is empty.
I have a copy from the Local Civil Registrar and as you can see the place of birth is visible here.
Still, the DFA didn’t want to accept it. They asked me to go to the Municipality where Ren was born and file for a supplemental report.
That’s why it’s important to check your NSO documents first. If you’ve noticed some discrepancies like missing letters, wrong spelling, wrong date, without place of birth etc. then it’s better to visit your municipality and file a supplemental report before going to the DFA.
Because of my busy schedule, it’s only last April 25 when I had the chance to visit Manila City Hall.
Here are the requirements for a supplemental report.
I thought I won’t be needing other local documents because I already have a SECPA copy of Ren’s birth certificate, but they still asked me to get a latest copy. Again, I don’t get it. Why does everybody wants a latest copy when the information they’ll be getting is still the same???
Overall I spent P650 for this supplemental report that in the first place is not my fault. It also took me 2 hours to finish all the procedures needed to get the Certified True Copy of Ren’s birth certificate.
Registration: P310.00
Transmittal to NSO: P190.00
Certified True Copy of Birth Certificate: P50.00
Notary Public : P100.00
And worse, I need to return the next day to get it. Imagine the time, effort and cost I spent for this. Argh!!!
After finishing the supplemental report (which I think took me 2 weeks), I brought the documents to NSO/PSA office in Quezon City. After filling up some information there, they will ask you to go back after a week to get the corrected copy.
Overall, it took me almost a month to finish the process.
Jomar says
paano pala po sa kaso ko mali yung nailagay ko na place of birth sa form nung nag fill up ako sa online na printed na kasi sya pwede pa po ba maayos dun pag punta ko sa appointment date ko po salamat po sa reply
Mommy Levy says
I think yes, sabihin nyo na lang
Jason says
Hello po. Ask po sana. Bagong kasal po tapos wala pa yung psa married cert. Pwede po yung local married cert pero dapat autheticated sa psa.
Tanong po s saan po magpapa authenticate ng local married cert tru copy po.na dapay autheticated by psa.
Maraming slamaat po
Mommy Levy says
Not sure kung pwede yan ngayon since bago kasal nga wala pa record sa PSA. Di ko po ma confirm, sensya na
hazelcunanan says
Hi Ma’am! Same din po yung case ko tulad nung nangyari sa inyo, last friday i had an appointment at DFA and noon ko lang din po napansin na blank yung place of birth ko sa PSA ko. Talaga po bang ganon katagal yung proccessing time kase binigyan lang ako ng one month para ayusin yung sa PSA ko, kung hindi ko maayos within a month, need ko na naman po magpa-appoint ng new sched sa DFA 🙁
Mommy Levy says
that time at least 2 weeks, di ko lang sure ngayong pandemic
jes says
hello mam!! what if naman po hindi naapprove sa first appointment sa DFA because of issues like that kapag po ba babalik sa DFA new appointment fee ulit? thanks!!
Mommy Levy says
during our time wala pa yung fee first. Pero hindi na kami nagpa schedule ulit, pinakita lang namin yung request nila na ayusin
Gem says
Mommy Levy. Ano po ang itsura ng transmittal slip? Yun daw po kasi ang hinahanap ng DFA para katibayan na nagpaayos daw talaga sa PSA.
Mommy Levy says
pinakita ko ang corrected PSA copy na ng Birth Certificate. With notation on the side
MARIVIC says
Hi po ano po Yung transmittal slip? Kasi may appointment po ako sa DFA sa 19 at on going pa ung process ng PSA ko gawa Ng ung middle name ko sa dalaga pa ako may Mali 1 letter Lang Naman po.. kasal na po ako now binigyan Lang ako Ng Local Civil Registry Ng certification na on process pa ung PSA Livebirth ko for correction..

Mommy Levy says
sorry I can’t help you since I don’t know the process on her case. My advice is to visit the municipality where she was born and ask them what to do. Pwede nyo po ipagawa siguro sa mga kamag-anak na andon.
Melanie says
Hi mam ung missing n place of birth place po ng nangyari sa inyo need po b tlga n sa local registrar kung saan ipinanganak kumuha ng supplementary report .. kasi nasa samar pa po un
Mommy Levy says
as far as I know yes. Pwede mo naman ipakuha yun. Ask mo din sa local registrar saan ka malapit para sure, then balikan mo ako kung pwede hindi kung saan lugar ka pinanganak kumuha.
sheryl Julia says
Mommy ako ang gumawa ng online appointment ko tapos sa pangalan ng asawa ko hindi ko nailay ang Jr.ok lng kya yon na doon ko nalang ipa correct?
Mommy Levy says

Mommy Levy says

Hazel says
Nag appointment ako dati sa DFA Aseana only to have the tell me dapat same yung birth place sa birth certificate and sa Appointment form. Mali kasi nung hospital, nilagay lng sa birth place ko is “QMMC” which is the shortned name of the hospital, pero nilagay ko sa Appointment form is complete like “QMMC, Quezon City”.
So better have it corrected or at least kung ano nasa birth certificate mo, same din lagay mo sa forms.
asis says
may PSA birth certificate ako, pero malabo,tsaka kulang isang letter ung name ko,tanggapin kya ng DFA if dalhin ko nlng ung malabong PSA tsaka ung lumang birth certificate ko galing sa local civil registral?
Cath says

Mommy Levy says

SARAH LEE TALISAYSAY says
Yung sakin po ma’am may nilagay na NA yung nag book ng slot sa Application ko wala po kasi akong Middle Name tapos nilagay nya NA mag rereflect daw kasi yun sa Passport.
Corazon says
Hi ask ko lang pano po kaya kung mali ang nailagay na pangalan, anak ko kasi ang gumawa ng passport application ko, nalito lang kasi ang nailagay is yung pangalan ko nung pagka-dalaga instead yung apelyido ng asawa ko. Schedule ko na this april possible ba na maicorrect ko muna yun bago iprocess. thank you
Mommy Levy says
sa sched date nyo na lang po ipa correct manually sa kanila since walang option sa website nila to edit.
Corazon says
noted thank you, so pwede po ba yun na iverify ko muna during processing? wala namang additional payment? or hindi naman magiging questionable? kasi if ever upon entry baka kailanganin makita yung passport appointment together with valid id since hindi kasi tugma. thank you
Mommy Levy says
you need to tell them ano dapat ang ayusin sa nailagay sa application and explain what happened. No extra charges.
Jeanelyn says
Hello po paano po pag no mark sa gender? Ganun din po ba ang process gaya sa inyo?
Mommy Levy says
maybe, but I’m not sure.
Majasty says
sakin naman po instead na Christian, Christan nailagay ko. Paano po nyan gagawin ko? tatanggapin Pa kaya application ko
Mommy Levy says
ask them to edit it sa schedule date mo na lang mismo. There’s no option to edit it kasi online.

Pero ok lang sakin kung anu ung nasa PSA ko yun ung sinusunod ko .. Haist =(
anthony says
hello mam ask ko lang kung tatanggapin ba nila ang birth certificate issued 10 years ago sa local civil registrar? not sure pano malalaman na psa certified pero malabo yata kasi 10 years ago na to
Mommy Levy says
I actually don’t know. Sabi ng iba tinatanggap, sabi ng iba hindi. Ang advice ko kung may time ka pa, kumuha ka na lang ng PSA copy para sure.
Jojo says
Regarding the copy of Birth Certificate from NSO, it doesn’t have to be the latest copy as long as it is from the NSO since there is already a directive from the NSO that BC from NSO DOES NOT expire.
Read here the directive from the NSO:
===========================
“Press statement on the issue that civil registry documents such as birth, death and marriage certificates expire
Reference Number:
2016-098
Release Date:
Thursday, June 30, 2016
It has come to our attention that there are persons who have the impression that the civil registry documents, particularly birth certificates issued by the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA), expire after six months from date of issuance.
In this connection, we would like to clarify and let the general public know that birth certificates are permanent records of the identities of each individual and do not have expiration period.
The facts contained therein do not change and cannot be altered unless, otherwise, there is a court order or the birth document underwent administrative corrections as provided under Republic Acts 9048 and 10172 (Clerical Error Laws). The modifications in information on the facts of birth are indicated as remarks or annotations in the documents
PSA would like to clarify that some features of the security paper (SECPA) wherein the document it issues are being printed, such as its colour, is being changed after some time. The said measure is being implemented to prevent the proliferation of fake documents and to preserve the integrity of PSA-issued documents.
We would like to make it clear that even when the PSA has changed the features of the document it issues from its Civil Registry System database, it does not mean that the previously issued copies using the “old SECPA” are no longer valid. The facts of birth contained in the “old SECPA” is still the same and does not expire unless there have been authorized annotations.
Furthermore, we would like to emphasize that the decisions of the end-users (i.e. DFA, Embassies/Consulates, GSIS/SSS, etc.) to require its clients/applicants to submit birth documents in the most recent SECPA from the PSA for purposes of passport issuance, visa application, benefits claim, as a school requirement, among others, is beyond our control.#

Hello . itatanong ko lang din sana kung makakaapekto kaya ang maling pangalan ng magulang sa 0ag kuha ng passport ? Thanks in advenced .
ManilaByNight says
This is to show how stupid and inadequate our Philippine government system is. Kunwari computerized sila pero all this red tape involved slows down everything to a crawl. No wonder this country sucks big time!
Sheng says
wish i saw your blog sooner. had my appointment earlier in DFA-Alabang ang they refuse to honor the NSO issued w/ OR attached BC. Copy was back in 2004, stating it’s too old and they can only honor the yellow sealed NSO paper. As if my BC will change!!! Such waste of time!

I guess the last paragraph gives DFA the right to refuse it, if they so decide…
DeX says
Hello, ask ko lang nakuha ko na yung Supplemental report which took me 1 week then pinababalik ulit ako after 2 weeks para kunin transmittal slip. Yan ba yung documents na dadalhin ko sa NSO/PSA para makuha ko ang Corrected PSA ko?
Mommy Levy says
yes yun din kasama ang supplemental report.
lezlian says
eto rin po case ko. follow up ko daw sa psa after 2 months at dalhin ko yung documents na binigay sa kin nung nagpagawa ako ng supplemental report. pag dinala ko ba yun after 2 months, makakakuha na din ako ng updated birth certificate? thanks po.
jhamir says
hi po ask ko lng ung birth year ko sa passport 1982 pero sa birth certificate ko 1984 minor pa kc ako nung pinagawa ng agency ko ung passport ko maayos pa kaya un mam? thanks
markpascua says
medyo di ko maintindihan maam,
kailangan ba authenticated pa yong PSA o kahit hindi na,
ang pagkakaintindi ko kasi para lang yon sa mga born abroad
Mommy Levy says
hindi na need authenticated PSA kasi yun na yun mismo. Di ko alam meaning ng authenticated PSA
Arensanjuan says
Good day… pa update nga po dun sa my mali po sa birth place sa birth certificate, yung name lang po ng hospital ang nakalagay. Supplemental lang po ba kelangan?
Need answer po, salamat
Mommy Levy says
yes supplemental
Arrene Keneth San Juan says
Sa manila city hall din po kau ng file? Pnapunta ko po tita ko dun, ang bnigay sa kanyang requirements ay for correctional, pero nsakin pa po yung form ng dfa na my note na for supplemental lng, nxt week po pupunta n po aq personally s manila city hall, ipapakita ko nlng po b yung form ng dfa n my note? Mtagal po kc proccess kpg correctional, di din naman po kasi mali place of birth ko, kulang lang po ng info ( addresa ng hospital) tnx
Mommy Levy says
pag address lang tulad sa anak ko, alam ko supplemental lang
Arrene Keneth San Juan says
Update lang po. (Case ng place of birth na name of the hospital lang ang nakaindicate.)
Correctional na daw po iyun. Wag daw po maniwala s dfa na supplemental lang. And it will take 4 to 5 mos pa. BUT in case nung skin yung name ng hospital ay nakagitna na sa place of birth. Correctional n daw yun, kung supplemental yun maitatapat na s column ng provice. D nman daw province ang Manila. KAYA my chance pa na supplemental lang kung my space pa para sa idadagdag na info.
Mayen says
Ano po ba mangyayari pag kulang ang requirements pagpunta ng dfa macacancel po ba yung application?
Mommy Levy says
they will ask you to go back malamang po
Ralph Christine says
Mommy Levy ipinasa nyo po yung supplemental report sa PSA along with endorsement from City hall?
Mommy Levy says
yes
Joan says
Hi ma’am tanong ko po mali po aplido ng tatay ko sa BC ko pero lahat ng documents ko tama aplido no tatay makakakuha po b me ng passport
al says
Kapag rejected po yung application, pwede po bang bumalik kahit kailan na di na kailangan ng appointment date?
Pahirapan kasi appointment ngayun, madalali maubos ang mga slots sa website nila.
Mommy Levy says
as far as I know, valid for 1 month yung schedule mo and pwede ka bumalik anytime within that period.
ManilaByNight says
The problem is that 1 month lang yung extension na binibigay nila pero the process for the supplemental (in this case name ng hospital only) takes almost a month. So by that time expired na schedule mo with DFA. What an inefficient Philippine government system. All the more I am beginning to be disappointed with this country.
rosiel gile says
Hello po! ask ko lang po kung yung kinuha niyo ay yung transcribe na birth certificate tsaka may bayad po pag kumuha non? sa case ko po kasi, nung aug. 28 ang sched ko for renewal tpos pgdting don hindi tinanggap ung psa ko kc mlabo sa 2 letters sa name ko, inadvise ako na mgdala ng orig na local register na birth certificate, tpos pagbalik ko nung sept. 24 hindi pa din inaccept yung local ko kasi sa part ng name ko may erasure tpos may hand written ng correct spelling ng name ko pero ndi sya nag reflect sa psa at nso ko, kaya ngayon pinakukuha sakin yung transcribe daw, sa pasig city kc don ung place of birth ko, eh tga sta. rosa laguna pa ko.
Mommy Levy says
hindi po, supplemental report po ang pinakuha sa’kin
Ralph says
Naayos muna ba yung BC mo sa Local registry?paano yung proseso nung may erasure sa name m?
Anthony Roberts says
I had the same experience,,nawala passport ko this year so i decided to request for a passport replacement,kumuha ako ng Affidavit of loss, Police report and sched an appointment with the DFA along with my valid ID’s and PSA birth cert,but unfortunately hindi nila tinanggap yung PSA birth cert ko need ko daw kumuha ng local copy of my birth cert which is i don’t have an idea why I need to submit such document wherein my copy naman ako ng NSO birth and PSA birth cert. I don’t know what’s the basis of asking me to submit the said documents malinaw naman yung copy ng birth cert ko.
minsan parang sinasadya lang ng mga government personnel na patagalin ang process or minsan sinasadya lang nila manghinge ng mga documents para rin kumita sila.
I feel very bad about this kasi sayang yung effort ko.
Mommy Levy says
I feel you
Jessica Delima says
Paano kung kulang ng isang letra ang middle name ko sa pagkadalaga, pero married na po ako ngayon magkakadiscrepancy pa po ba?
Mommy Levy says
pagbabasehan nila ang birth certificate
arlene simon says
miss Levy, ma-process po kya kahit xerox lng dala ng husband ko na marriage certificate. renewal lng nman po. pro married n po xa ngaun mgrerenew . thanks
Mommy Levy says
I don’t think they will accept a photocopy lang.
Janine Reginaldo says
hi po ask ko lang po if pwede na ako mag apply ng passport kung ang id requirements lang po na merun ako ay ang ,PSA, VOTERS CERTIFICATION,POSTAL ID,PHILHEALTH, NBI,POLICE CLEARANCE and E-1.. thanks po
Mommy Levy says
check DFA’s website to check the list of documents needed.
Roxan says
Magchange status po sana ako sa passport single to married 2021 pa yong expiration ng passport ko kaso yong hawak ko na ID is TIN id lang expired na kasi yong iba kung id okay lang ba yong TIN id? Yong passport ba pwedi na pinakaprimary?
Mommy Levy says
I think pwede na yung old passport mo then PSA copy ng married contract. Or pwede din kumuha ka na lang ng Postal ID with your new surname.
Sha says
Hi. Ask ko po if need din ba nila latest copy ng PSA Birth Certficate ng guardian/Single mother.
Marge says
Hello po, Magiging problema po ba kung alang space ung surname example: DE LEON naging DELEON
Mommy Levy says
di ko po alam
joy says
hi maam levi,
kaka kasal ko lang po..need ko kumuha ng passport pero wala po ako id na updated sa married ang status ko puro single pero may marriage contract po ako galing nso tatanggapin po kaya mga id ko
Mommy Levy says
maybe you can get a Postal ID with using your husband’s surname na
desiree says
mam tanung ko lang po. yung sa birth certificate ko po kasi yung middle name po ng father ko mali yung isang letter imbes po “z” e “s” po ang nakalagay.. pero yung sa marriage contract ko po tama.. icoconsider pa din po kaya nila yun?. pwede pa din po kaya akong makakuha ng passport
Mommy Levy says
I don’t know if importante ang details na yun sa pagkuha ng passport, only DFA can answer your question
Marvin calvelo says
hi maam ask ko lang kung ano po yung gagawin nagkamali po kasi ako ng input regarding sa application ko po para sa passport it supposed to be na pangalan ko po yung naka indicate ang nailagay ko po eh yung pangalan ng nanay.. and yet nabayaran n po nmin cia ngaun.. ano po kaya yung pwedeng gawin maam.. tatanggapin po kaya nila ito since we ha validated documents for that..!!
Mommy Levy says
perhaps you can ask them to edit it na lang. Walang option online to edit it kasi kaya sa dulo pinapa check muna lahat ng na input bago iconfirm.
PICHIE says
good day po mam.. tanong ko lang po kung pwede po ba makakuha ng passport kahit wala po middle name po .. salamat po
Mommy Levy says
bakit wala?
cel says
ganun anak ko illigitimate child sya dala nya surname ko lang. baka ganun po case nya kaya walang middle name. pero pag may tatay naman ang bata and kasal or acknowledge sya ng father dapat may middle name ang birth.
desiree says
hello po. tanung ko lang po kung makakakuha po ako ng passport kasi po yung middle name ng father ko sa birth certificate ko ay mali yung isang letter.. tapos po yung sa marriage contract ko e is tama yung spelling ng middle name niya. kailangan ko pa po bang ipaayos yung birth certificate ko? thanks po in advance.
Kezia May M. Balladares says
Hello momshie. Ask ko lng sana if may idea kayo sa concern ko. Last yr kasi di ako nakapagpatuloy magrenew ng passport ggamitin ko sana ung surname ni husband kasi nga kasal na ako pero nakitaan ng mali sa place of birth ng Marriage Contract namin. Need ko magfile for correction. Pero hndi ko onasikaso noon kasi nasadden po ako sa nangyari naisip ko na hndi tlaga para sa akin magabroad. Pero ngayon i have limited time nalang para kumuha ng passport ko kasi kailangan na raw talaga na makaalis ako need ko po mapadala by december to spain yon. Alam ko pag nagfile ako di na aabot kc 3-6 mos bago macorrect ung mistake. Dami pang need na requirements and shempre fees na naman.
Pinaplano kong gamitin ang surname ng pagkadalaga ko para makarenew pero need ilagay sa appointment married pa din po ako dba? Nabasa ko may rights naman daw ang married woman na gmitin ang maiden name ko pa rin. Kaso iniisip ko baka ipadala na naman ang mali sa Marriage contract ko. Plus id ko surname na ng asawa ko. And uuwi na naman ako ng malungkot dahil sa mistake na yon na di ko naman kasalanan kundi ng municipal staff noong kinasal ako huhuhu
Mommy Levy says
yes hindi natin kasalanan yung mga mali nila, pero still tayo ang dapat nag aasikaso. Sayang yung bakanteng panahon na sana naayos mo na. In this case, it’s up to you kung anong surname ang gagamitin mo. Regarding your ID siguro pwede ka magpa postal ID na lang using your surname and not your husband.
may says
hello ma’am Levy,
ask ko lang po kung ipoprocess po ba ng DFA yung renewal ng passport ng husband ko kasi hindi nya po naiattached yung birthcertificate nya and xerox ng valid id. Hindi daw kasi hiningi at hindi nya na rin ininsist na ibigay.. paano po yun? mapprocess po ba yun? Yesterday lang po yun at half month pa bago ang releasing..
Mommy Levy says
renewal naman kasi, baka di na kailangan
geraldine villa latorre says

Mommy Levy says

Ralph Christine says
I think thiw will help me a lot to correct my birth cert regarding my birth place ! Thank you in advance Mommy Levy . 😊😊😊
Jessa says
Hi po. May discrepancy po spelling ng pangalan ng Mother ko sa birth certificate ko pero may supporting document na po ako from Public Attorney’s Office stating the correct spelling. Ang concern ko lang po ay
Kung tatanggapin ng DFA yung ganong document kasi sa site nila nakalagay dapat annotated yung birth certificate. Any idea po kung no need na kong magpa-annotate since May supporting document na ko? Thank you very much po.
Mommy Levy says
I have no idea if they will accept it.
roligen says
hi mam good morning po.. valid pa po ba ang nso po? once na kumuha ka ng passport po.. thnk you po
ConcernPinoy says
Just processed my passport renewal today. (Ali Mall DFA)
To all who’s asking if NSO BC is still valid.
Yes, valid to use pa din ang NSO BC.
NSO BC ang ginamit ko to renew my passport. And for your reference you may check as well on DFA website, as it is stated there as well.
Here’s the link.
https://www.dfa.gov.ph/authentication-functions/113-newsroom/public-advisory/16917-frequently-asked-questions-on-dfa-passport-and-authentication-services
If in case na di tanggapin ng DFA ang BC nyo, it’s simply means na may maling info sa BC nyo or bka dhil malabo na.
So always check your BC prior your appointment pra macorrect agad and avoid delay in processing your passport application/renewal.
ruby says
hi mom levi my appointment last july25 resced po a q so dfa give me a 1moths to correct my marriege contract for annotation still on processing p po at wait for finality nexweek to mcr,so my appointment ended up this month of august25 but ihave only copy of my petition and expidite note have recieve stamp from crg,pwede q po ky i2 dalhin s dfa to proven still on processing my marriege contract,to give extension of my appointment kc hirap po kumuha ng slot uli also sayang naman kung mag pay uli ng 1,200,tnx u
Mommy Levy says
I don’t know the answer to your question Ruby. Si DFA lang makakasagot kung pwede nila iextend.
Christian Miranda says
Hi Mam. Nagpasked nako ng appointment sa DFA through online. Kaso may problem ako sa birth cert ko, mali kasi ng spelling yung middle name ko. two letters yung mali nya. Ano kaya maganda gawin para dito? Thanks
Mommy Levy says
mali yung nainput mo o mali yung mismong copy ng Birth Cert? Kung yung mismong copy ng birth certificate, I think supplemental report ang kailangan para ma correct yun. Kung yung ininput mo lang naman ang mali, pwede mo na lang ipa correct sa DFA mismo.
Christian Miranda says
Mali yung nasa birth cert ko Mam. Kailangan ko pa ba munang pa correct yun?
Mommy Levy says
yes dapat ma correct
Jely says

Thank you.. Newbie..
Mommy Levy says

Jass says
Hi mam levy ask ko lang po kung ok lang khit PSA at 2 valid iDs lang requirements ko sa pagkuha ng passport ??
Mommy Levy says
kindly check DFA’s website for the list of requirements. Thanks!
Llurish Candaza says
I got my NSO birth certificate year 2009, malinaw pa din naman sya at nababasa pa yung mga informations. Tatanggapin pa din po ba yun ng DFA or I have to get pa the latest one, which is psa na ngayon? Thank you po 🙂
Mommy Levy says
get a new one if you still have the time to do so. They might or might not ask for a PSA copy, mas okay na yung ready.
Jovie Sotea says
Hi good day, I just have questions regarding my renewal of passport, when I submitted my birth certificate DFA found out that there is an error in my gender, I am male instead of female in my birth certificate, I was informed to submit supplemental documents, what documents to i need to submit instead of birth certificate?
Mommy Levy says
you need to fix your birth certificate from your municipality. There is no alternative document for birth certificate I think.
Hanash says
Base on my experience… Nag process ako ng passport ko there is no checck sa gender. Pumayag nmn sila ng notar or bring supporting dox. Kpag may anak ka pwd birthcert ng baby mo as supporting dox katibayan na babae ka. But that was long time ago 2009. D ko sure kung ganun prin ngaun.
deryll aguimbag says
Tanong ko lang po humihingi pa po ba ng scan copy ang DFA sa PSA if totoo po ung PSA na daladala ng isa tao original po once nsa DFA na siya ? or sa mismo PSA na dala ng isa tao dun nlng magababase ang DFA?
Mommy Levy says
original copy ang kukunin nila
Maryrose Apostol says
hi po ask ko lang , pag renewal ba ng passport need pa rin ba ang original nso?please reply po..salamat
Mommy Levy says
please check their website for the requirements of renewal. Thank you.
Wianne says

Mommy Levy says
yes edit na lang sa DFA mismo

Hi Mommy Levy. I am scheduled for a passport appointment next week sa Megamall branch. Ask ko lang po if acceptable pa yung NSO birth certificate instead of PSA. Wala pa kasi akong copy ng PSA and baka if mag-request ako now hindi na aabot.

Pwede bang ipadala ko na lang ang BC nia galing sa municipal hall namin na malinaw po ang mga details na nakalagay para lng may patunay sa malabong mga details na nasa PSA copy?
Allan says
MA’am Levy tanong ko lng poh ung asawa ko gusto kumoha nag passport ka cicivil lng poh na min last May 28 2018 at gagamit na sya nag family name ko ano poh b requirements don kc ung marriage certificate na galing NSO after 6months pa daw un bago ma release. salamat poh.
Mommy Levy says
hindi ko po alam ang sagot sa tanong nyo.
sammy liwanag says
hello mam tinatanggap pa po ba sa dfa ang nso salamat po
rizza says
may problema po ang nso ko, sabi ng taga dfa wala daw manila city sa birth place ko , pero nakalagay naman ang pangalan ng hospital kung san ako pinanganak, pwede po ba ako bumalik sa dfa para ipakita ang medical record ng mother ko, instead na ipaayos ko pa?
Mommy Levy says
hindi po yun pwede, kailangan nyo talaga ayusin yung record sa NSO
Cza says
Hi ma’am levy, baka sakali matulungan nyo po. Nakapag book po ako ng appointment kahapon sa dfa para sa passport and hindi ko inaasahan monday next week na makuha ko, grab ko na din since super hirap mag hanap ng schedule. So i decided to get a new birth cert which is psa na, kaso nagka problem wala po akong gender sa birth, so i need to go back sa munisipyo kung saan ako pinanganak, pag punta ko dun ang daming requirements, like id’s katunayan na female ako., medical records at affidavit or supplementary. Nabigay ko namn po lahat binagay din saken ung copy of live birth ko ang kaso po sabi ung endorsement letter ko na ipapasa sa dfa after 15 days pa daw po. Possible po ba matanggap itong live birth ko kasama ng ibang documents ko. Hay tapos yung name ko po sa appointment online kulang ng joy. Possible po ba maayos ito duon 🙁 thanks you.
Mommy Levy says
regarding sa pagkakamali ng pag input ng name, I think pwede maayos sa DFA mismo. Regarding sa gender, yes kailangan mo muna sya ayusin
Jen hatid says
good day ! 😂 magtatanong lang po ako, wala po kasi akong mga valid id’s na acceptable ng dfa. Makakakuha pa rin po ba ako kung ang mga gagamitin kong requirements e ung mga supporting documents?
mavel says
good po mommy Levs. Tanong ko lang po, newly issued po yung PSA ko pero di po kasi clear yung isang letter, nagblot po yung ink. Ang alam ko po, kailangan ng LCR copy, at meron din po ako nun kaso yung LCR ko ay 2001 pa na issue. Di rin po kaya ito tatanggapin? support lang naman po ito dun sa PSA ko. kung hindi po ito tatanggapin, pwede po bang ibang docs na lang ang gamitin at hindi LCR? salamat po.
Joe says
Hi ms. Levy
I have an appointment at dfa ASEANA and I only havea photocopy of my old NSO Bc. The PSA copy I ordered online is yet to be delivered, I’m wondering if it’s alright if I follow up the BC na lang since malapit lang naman workplace ko. I dont mind if pabalikin ako as long as I dont have to pay again for a reappointment. Thanks.
Joe says
I just finished my appointment in ASEANA and fortunately they never asked for my birth certificate. I simply handed out the filled out form, 2 copies of the e receipt, and a photocopy of my passport. Then dere derecho na yung processing. Not sure lang kung ganito din sa ibang branch but thankfully hindi humingi ng cooy ng certificate ko.
Joy says
Tinanggap po nila kahit old BC from NSO pa? ‘Yan din kasi ang dilemma ko. Thank you! 🙂
shane says

briex says
Hi Micah,
Are these requirements applicable sa lahat nang DFA offices? I just submitted kasi lahat nang pwede masubmit except yung acceptable valid ID nila. I had PSA, police, NBI, barangay clearances and I photocopied pa ang tin Id, philhealth and company id pa.. The travel agency said na they’ll try to submit my papers pero wala assurance kasi nga I don’t have valid ID.. Haay
Michelle Anne Olarve says
Hello po, Ask ko lang po kasi yung sa PSA ko po yung Middle name ng father ko ay Crucena pero po yung sa Appoointment ko po sa Passport ay Avinante, ipaprocess pa din po kaya nila yung appointment ko or hindi po?
Thanks po.
Mommy Levy says
I think you could ask them to edit it at DFA when you arrive.
Algen Ambayec says
mommy levy gusto ko po sana magtanong. may schedule po ako ng appointment ngayong 27 sana pero kinancel ko po sa kadahilanang yung name ng father ko sa bc ko ay alex, real name nya po ay felix. advised po ng ate ko na nakakuha rin ng passport, ay magpa appointment ako ulit at alex na gamitin ko. tama po ba ginawa ko? tsaka po mommy levy, wala po middle name parents ko sa bc ko. middle initial lang, tatanggapin po ba yun ng dfa? kasi bacolod po yung appointment ko then taga cebu po ako. salamat po ng marami.
Mommy Levy says
I don’t know if it’s important since details mo ang importante sa kanila (not your parents name). But still di ko masasagot ng tama ang tanong mo dahil di naman ako empleyado ng DFA.
Lyra says
Pwede naman po kc tatanungin ka ulit nila kOng tama ba nilagay mo at pd mo din ipa edit.
Joliann Mae Diola Ejim says
Hello po, ask ko lang if may difference po ba ang NSO/PSA BC for passport and NSO/PSA BC for local employment? Or should I get another BC with the purpose na pang passport?
In your case po, ano po sinubmit mo na BC ?
Your answer will highly be appreciated. Thanks po.
Mommy Levy says

Jash says

Mommy Levy says

Alvin Reforma says

April says

Ezekiel says
Hello po. May issue lang po ako about sa place of birth na nailagay ko sa Online Application. Medyo nalito lang po ako sa application form ng site nila. Pano po pag punta ko don for my appointment at nakita nila ng iba ang place of birth na nakalagay sa birth certificate ko sa nilagay ko sa online application form? Macacancel po ba application ko o pwede naman pong ipabago sa kanila doon? Thanks po
Mommy Levy says
I think pwede naman ipabago, medyo hassle lang.
Jhon says
Hi Maam
Ask lang po kukuha po sana ako ng Passport but may Birth Certificate sa Middle name ko nakalagay is Initial lang instead of Middle full name. mag kaka problema ba o kailangan ko poba ayosin kong saan ako naka Register??
Danielle Marie San Buenaventura says
we have the same problem. You need to file petition for correction of clerical error of your birth certiifcate sa LCR. I’ve been waiting for 10 months already. And it was not yet corrected. Hindi rin kasi ako kinontact ng LCR na I have to pay some fees after they received the decision from OCRG. YUP. Ganun Kabagal.
Grace says
Hi Po,
Ask ko lang po nag kakaproblema ba if yung middle name ko complete naman sa NSO pero yung maiden name ng mama ko sa NSO initial lbg ng lastname nya sa pagkadalaga (which is ginagamit ko as my middle name)
Christine says
Hi mommylevy ang psa ko po ay walang gender ?
Pagkatapos po ba mag file ng supplemental hihingi po ba ako sa civil registrar namin ng certified to copy of live birth ko po ?
Gracee says
Ipapacorrect nio pang po un , sa processing palang ay ivhecheck na nila ang mga docs. Nio , tas sabihin nio po mali napalagay.. then iaadvice namn nila kau na pag for picture na kau sabhin sa kukuha ng biometrics niot picture na ipapabago nio po.. ieedit namn po nila un, ganon pang po kadali
Red says
Hi nagkamali din ako sa place of birth ko tanong ko lang kung pinaYagan ka ipabago? 😢 sa monday na kasi appointment ko
carol dalofin says
Hi ezekiel. i also have the same issue. but i am confident i was not confused in typing my place of birth when i had scheduled online for an appointment. btw, natapos knb sa passport application mo? what happened? TYIA Ezekiel. God bless!
Pam says
Hello po Ezekiel. Ganyan din po ang nangyari sa akin. My appointment will be next month. Confident po ako sa mga information na ibinigay ko but when i reviewed my application form, mali yung birth place ko where in the first place confident po ako sa mga impormasyong ibinigay ko at mukhang hindi na po pwedeng i edit. Pwede po bang ipachange na lang sa araw mismo ng appointment? Pwede po bah? Pwede po bang magtanong kung ano po ang nangyari sa appointment niyo in this kind of case?
Summer says
Hi good day! Last September 2017 kasi nag apply ako for passport but na deny kasi may mali sa BC ko so tinatakan po nila yung form ko and write remarks na need ko ng new corrected BC. After months now lang na release ung corrected BC ko. Need ko po kaya mag pa appointment ulit or valid pa naman ung form ko dati? Thank you.
Mommy Levy says
I think valid pa yan.
Marisa says
Ask k po sana kng pano k malalaman kng nakapag pa apointment ako sa pasport k po kasi po nagpagawa lng po ako nang pasport apointment k,gusto k po sana malaman kng talagang pinagawa.an nya me po kasi bakA perahan nya lng po kami taga mynila k kasi bacolod po ako.
Mommy Levy says
usually may email galing sa DFA mismo kung successful ang appointment nyo. Pwede mo irequest na email mo ang gamitin sa pagpapa book para direct na matanggap mo from DFA ang confirmation
johnedel says
Ask lang po maari pa po bang mapabago yung middle name ng mama ko kasi ang nalagay ko doon atencio pero and middle name ng mama ko talaga is atedio magkakaproblema po ba kaya ako pag dating ng appoitment ko? thanks po
Mommy Levy says
perhaps you could ask them to edit it there. WAlang way online to correct it kasi.
Rubyjean Tagpuno says

KATH says

Melhiem says
Hello po. Ask lng po ako, last January I went to DFA Tacloban to apply for a passport for me and my daughter. My daughter’s requirement is all good, she is 2y.o by the way. Tung sakin is yung my issue. I brought with me the original copy of my NSO. Ayaw nilang tanggapin because they said my middle name has blotches, I was born 1991 so yeah typewriter pa gamit dun. Although readable nmn yung middle name ko but they won’t accept it. So at the time they suggested something to me about going to the LCR where I was registered. After that, di ko na maalala yung sinabi nila kase nga shookt pa ako at the time. Imagine the long travel tapos wala palang maachieve. So ask ko lng po ano po gagawin ko when I go to the LCR, taga Leyte po ako, tapos Cebu ako pinanganak. Supplemental report din po ba? Or what? Sana po maliwanagan ako. Plan ko pumunta nang Cebu by May. Thank you po
Mommy Levy says
yes I think supplemental report po ang kukunin nyo. KUng may kilala kayo sa Cebu pwede nyo po siguro pakiusapan na sila mag asikaso.
may says
hello po ask ko lang po sana first time po nmin kumuha ng passport ng asawa ko kaso ung sa nso marriage cert po namin may mali, may nadagdag na isang letra sa middle name ko. ako po ung wife. may joint affidavit po pro matagal na po to.. okay lng po ba yun? salamat sa mkakasagot
Rolando S. Cuevas says
Hello po Ma’am Levy, Tanong lang , hindi po mabasa ang PSA Birth Cert ng anak ko na 17 years old. Kumuha na po ako ng Certified True Copy ng birth cert, niya sa Local Civil Registrar sa amin sa Bacoor City. Ang hindi ko po maintindihan ay kailangan pa daw ito ng authentication ng PSA. Paano po ba iyon? Kailangan ko pa bang dalhin and Certified True Copy ng Birth Cert. sa PSA para sa authentication? Pls lang po patulong na para hindi masayang ang pagpunta namin sa DFA. Salamant po
Mommy Levy says
ang alam ko same ng proseso yan sa Supplemental report.
Jane says
Hi maam is it ok na NSO lang abg dalhin kung walang PSA
Chelsea Ann Canlas says
Hello po. What if iba po yung nalagay na birth place sa application form? Ndi po match sa birth certificate. Ndi po ba tatanggapin yun? Do i need to set for another appointment? Thanks po.
Mommy Levy says
kailangan po pareho. Kung nagkamali lang kayo ng input, pwede naman ata ipabago don mismo. Kasi sa hirap magpa schedule ulit baka wala na kayong makuhang available slot.
Mario Manlapaz says
Hi po. May maipapayo ba kayo?
2012 kumuha ako gamit yung late registration q sa NSO
( birthplace :apalit)
Then nung kumuha ako ng passport : apalit po birthplace q.
Then nung bago kami ikasal ng wife q. Nakuha q sa psa is ung registered talaga from hospital qng saan aq pinanganak (calumpit bulacan)
Then last nov 2017 i renew my passport . Sabi q pwede pabago ung sa birthplace q. From apalit pampanga to calumpit bulacan.
Sabi sa akin huwag na dawm ok lang daw un.
Now i am applying for a work abroad then tinanong q sa agency if ok lang ba ung magkaiba ung birthplace q psa at sa passport q for applying visa.
Sabi possible na magkaproblem aq.
Kailangan q po ba kumuha ng panibagong passport?
Mommy Levy says
I have no idea sir, please ask DFA regarding your concern since sila naman tumanggap ng wrong info.
Lourdes says
Hello po ma’am, tanong kulang po kung makakakuha ng passport ang illegitimate na anak ko kahit wala ng middle name at walang name ng father sa civil regestrar at sa nso live birth nya at apelyedo kulang gamit nya
Mommy Levy says
Hi Lourdes, I think yes but I’m not sure about the process. Better to check with DFA first
Gail Louise says
Hello! I also had a problem with my birth cert on my first name. I filed a petition last Nov, 2017 here in my municipality. And it was affirmed by the CRG and MCR received it on Mar21, 2018. The finality was sent to PSA-Manila last Mar26 to have it online. My schedule for appointment for passport Apr6, 2018. Fortunately, the accepted my application for passport even if there’s no annotated BC. I only gave them a copy of my petition and a copy of an action taken from the CRG that is affirmed and I prayed that it be accepted. God is good! Hope this information can help.
Mommy Levy says
thanks for sharing this info

Mary ann says

Omar Benosa says
Hi, I have the same issue with my birth certificate na missing yung place of birth. We tried what you did pero iba ang sinabi samin ng Caloocan city hall na hindi na sila nag iissue ng supplemental report. Ang finollow namin na process ay yung correction of clerical error na almost 3 months ang processing. Ganun na po ba tlga? Ang sinabi sakin ng DFA nun ay kumuha lang din ng supplemental report. Thank you
Mommy Levy says
yes supplemental report lang ang sinasabi sakin.

Jen says
Or you can apply po at any SM po for the PSA copy of your birth certificate. thanks
April Rose Igot says
hi i would like to ask if ang citizenship ko sa NSO F instead of Filipino ayaw ihonor ng taga DFA may local birth ako wala rin nakalagay citizenship pero sa taas mayroon Republic of the Philippines ayaw rin nila pumunta ako sa civil registrar pa autheticate F rin nakalagay sa citizenship ko pareho lang sa NSO pagpachange daw sabi ng staff dun is 1000php per letter

Mommy Levy says
hindi ko po masasagot kung bakit ganun kasi ako man yan din tanong ko. Hindi ko din kasalanan but still dumaan ako sa mahaba at magastos na proseso.
Suerte layaoen says

Mommy Levy says

Margie says

Mommy Levy says

Marjorie says
Ask ko lang po, kase sa application online mali yung nainput kong Middle name ng daddy ng bf ko. Na-schedule ko na ung appointment namin on May 30. Can it be changed?
Mommy Levy says
maybe you can change it there kasi walang option online na pwede baguhin.
Pearl says
Hi! We’re done with our appointment in DFA Alabang. Just want to give an update to everyone here. I was able to finally get my UMID. Yun lang tinanggap na ID ko ng DFA employee. Sabi niya hindi daw need yung premium postal and tin card ko. Hindi na naghanap ng supporting documents. I was just asked for my and my daughter’s original birth certificates, photocopies of our certificates and IDs. Same with my husband. Yung concern ko about his birth certificate na abbreviated yung place of birth: Cab. City NE = hindi na pinansin ng employee na nagcheck ng documents niya. Thank God. He provided his UMID and driver’s license.
May photocopier sa DFA Alabang branch but I suggest that you make 3 copies for each of your documents/IDs so you can breeze through the lines. Our appointment was at 10am. We got there at 8am. May mga nakapila na. The good thing is we were able to finish our application in just 30 minutes.
Tinanggap yung PSA birth certificates that we got last year. May nakasabay kaming guy kanina na pinabalik kasi blurry daw copy ng birth certificate niya.
Boyet says
In passport application, accepted pa ba yung NSO birth cert.? Or need kumuha ng bago na PSA na ang logo?
Geormaun says
need a reply for this
Elline Jeanne says
Hi! Baka po may nakakaalam sa inyo. Ask ko lang po if tatanggapin po ba ng DFA kpag yung last name ko UMID ID surname ng father ko, and ung nsa BC maiden name ng mama ko sa pagdalaga.. Lahat ng documents ko since bininyagan ako last name na ng father ko ang gamit pero ngyon ko n lng po gingamit ung apelido ni mama nung dalaga p sya. Un lng kasi na primary ID ang kya kong i provide. “Unknown” din pla sa BC ko si papa kya sobrang laki ng prob ko tapos 2003 lng sila naikasal and 2005 namatay si papa. 1993 po ako pinanganak.. Sana po may sumagot kasi need ko po tlga ng passport may nNgyari kasi sa fiancé ko.
Lenet says

Mommy Levy says

Jojoe says
Hi Admin,
Is it really necessary to have an NBI clearance when getting a passport?
Thanks,
JoJoe Bongz
Mommy Levy says
not necessary as long as you have the other documents needed
Maria Rosario Mariano says
Hello po,need po ba talaga PSA or ok na ang NSO live birth?
Mommy Levy says
sabi ng iba okay na NSO copy, sabi ng iba need daw PSA. Kaya ang advise ko kung may time pa kayo kumuha ng PSA copy then do so, para sigurado at iwasan ang bumalik pa.
Dom says
Hi Ma’am Levy
Ask ko po if pwede na kaya yung nso birth certificate ng anak ko last 2014 ko pa nakuha at yung nso marriage certificate ko ay 2007 pa po nakuha ko. Possible po kaya tanggapin ng dfa aseana yun as requirements for minor. Thank you po. Bukas sana kami pupunta.
Mommy Levy says
sana po tanggapin yung marriage contract kasi almost 10 years na sya.
Maichi says
Hello po! Tanong ko lang po, di po ba ang sabi nyo, after a month naayos na yung birth certificate na pinapaayos nyo. Paano nyo po nalaman natapos na yung proseso? Ininform po ba kayo or pinuntahan nyo po yung office?? Salamat.
Mommy Levy says

Shie says

Peter James Dequina says
Hello po, naka apply kayo ng NSO gamit niyong BC? Hindi PSA?
Mario Manlapaz says
Noong 2012 q pa nagamit ung sa NSO q w/c late registered. If new applicant po psa na kailangan sa dfa.
Jen Liwanag says
Hi po. Ask lang kase yung 1st page nung NSO ko yung name nung daddy ko is ANIBER which is correct spelling but the 2nd page is ANIVER na sya which is wrong. Mismong nag type dun sa nso ko yung mali right? Tatanggapin ba ng dfa to? for my passport kase.
Cristopher Mamenta says
Hi Ma’am Levy,
Sana mapansin nyo po itong post ko. May mali po kasi sa birth certificate ko which is isang letra sa middle name ko. Pero nakapagfile na ko ng petition for correction of my middle name sa BC ko this February. Binigyan na rin po ako ng certification from LCR na nagpapatunay na in-process na yung correction ng BC ko. 6 months po kasi yung processing nung correction.
April 27, 2018 po yung appointment ko for passport. Tatanggapin po kaya yung certification na binigay ng LCR? Thank you po.
Mommy Levy says
di ko po masasagot if tatanggapin nila since I am not connected to DFA. Sana tanggapin…. balitaan nyo po kami.
Cheryl F says
If you’re near the DFA office, I think you can ask yung nasa information desk regarding your concern. I went to DFA Dgte yesterday and pinapapasok naman po nila yung mag.iinquire regarding the requirements paisaisa. You can call the office where you set your appointment din.
Cristopher Mamenta says
Thanks po Ma’am Levy and Ma’am Cheryl. Update ko po kayo regarding this at para na rin makatulong sa mga same issue as mine.
Jen says
Hi po… meron kasi nakalagay sa website ng DFA regarding list of supporting documents, tas nakalagay po old documents issued at least one year prior…. kelangan po ba talga luma na, like yung police clearance, brgy clearance at government service record ko ay ngaun ko lang po pinagkukuha?tatanggapin po kaya
Pearl says
May nabasa po ako about supporting documents na similar sa question niyo. Ang ginawa daw ng iba ay nagdala ng old school IDs, transcript of records, old employment IDs, ITR, yearbook, baptismal certificate aside from the NBI, police clearance. I suggest na kumalap kayo ng mga old IDs para sure. May hinanapan nga daw ng old growing up pics eh. Siguro gusto talaga manigurado ng DFA employee. Haha! Nagprep din po ako ng documents ko for our appointment next week. I’m just waiting for my UMID to be delivered. So far, I have the premium postal ID I got last year pa, LTO student permit I got last month, TIN card, TOR from my university, old college ID, old employment IDs, PSA certificates, baptismal certificate (yung friend ko hiningian nito), SSS E-1 form. I’ll also bring my yearbook, old Philhealth MDR. I’ll also bring yung certified copy ng birth cert ko from the LCR and yung request for correction sa first name ko. Kahit madaming bitbit papunta dun, mabuti na kaysa pabalikin. For my daughter, I’ll bring her old school IDs, birth certificate, yung certificate of birth from the hospital and form 137.
sandoval says
hi maam good morning tanong ko lang po kasi po yong voters certificate ko nagkami po yong nalagay kona birthplace ,sa brthcrtfcate ko po manila .pano po kaya ang dapat kong gawin baka dahil doon hindi ako makakuha ng passport thank you
Alden Cruz says
Hi,
My wife and my 2-year old son just finished their passport application last Friday, Feb. 23, 2018. My wife’s Birth cert. and Marriage Certificate are both “NSO” stamped while my son’s Birth Cert. is “PSA” stamped. DFA ASEANA accepted it both, so I am not sure why some of the comments here are confusing (NSO not accepted anymore – maybe because its blurred or a bad copy). LOL anyways, that is just FYI. Thanks! 🙂
Mommy Levy says
thanks for the update Alden
Cheryl F says
Kakaapply ko lang ng passport kahapon. I got my BC (NSO) last 2012 pa but DFA accepted it naman. BC, Voter’s ID and NBI clearance lang dala ko. And in less than 30 minutes nakalabas na ako ng DFA office 🙂
Mariz says
Pano kapag di ka pa nagtatrabaho tapos ang valid id mo lang postal at bir pwede kaya yun sa valid ids?
AD says
hi maam , pwd na po kaya ynug

Mommy Levy says
if those requirements are indicated in DFA website then that’s okay. I’m not in the right position if you have the right requirements or not because I am not working at DFA po.
annie says
mommy nung kulang po requirements nyo pagbalik nio po ba nag walk in nalang kayo o nagpasched ulit ng panibago.
thanks
Mommy Levy says
walk in na lang po. My son is PWD so I don’t know if pwede din mag walk in pag regular lang.
shaira says
Hello po, ask ko lang if tinatanggap pa ng DFA ang NSO today?
Ayah says
Hi, just want to ask po. Yung akin kasi nung pumunta ako ng dfa. Magpapa “Supplementary place of birth” pa daw ako sa LCR. Hospital lang kasi nakalagy sa place of birth ko, dpat may Quezon City manila daw after ng hospital. Same dn po ba ng process yun and hiningan po ba kayo ng authorization? kasi im planning na kuya ko kkuha for me sa Manila since im working here sa cebu po. Sana mabasa nyo po.
Cheryll A. says
Same case ko sa DFA, Hospital name lang nakalagay sa BC. Friend ko nagaayos ng saken kasi malapit siya sa Manila City Hall. Pinayagan siya ng personel ng LCR Doon. Nagbigay ako sa kanya ng Authorisation letter and ID’s. Patawagin mo brother mo sa LCR ng QC para ma check kung tatanggapin dun. As of now, pinoproblema ko yung sa hospital, kasi mukhang di na existing.
marj says
hello! same situation with my mother. Nasa Albay kami, pindala ko na via LBC ung requirements. Ano sa tingin nyu mam, mas mabilis pa kung personal na may ngfofollow up nun sa Main?
nuel says
Hi madam,
Question lang po.. Friend ko kasi ang name nya sa NSO is Jonlester Panis Malana.. all docs umid at sa school at lahat panis ang gamit nya.. pero ang surname tlga ng mama nya is Panes/.. makakakuha parin ba sya ng passport?thank u po..
Reymond San Juan says
GOOD day ma’am
Tanong ko lang po kung okay na po ba yung 1 ID and PSA BC para sa passport application ko. At wala na po ba Ibang kailangan?salamat po
Neneth says
Good day po Ms. Levy,
Magtanong po ako kung ano po ba dapat gawin? Kasi po yun ID Voters at Registration Record po ng asawa ko ay kulang yun name nya, CHRISTOPHER ISHMAEL po yun real name nya talaga pero yun po kasi nasa Voters ID nya ay CHRISTOPHER lang. Pero sa Birthcertificate po nya at sa TIN ID pati po sa POSTAL ID at NBI Clearance ay correct naman po “CHRISTOPHER ISHMAEL”. Ang tanong ko po pwede ba kaya na mag pagawa nalang ng Affidavit na katunayan yun CHRISTOPHER na nasa ID Voters at si CHRISTOPHER ISHMAEL ay iisa, acceptable po ba yun sa DFA?
Thank you po!
Toni says
Hi miss levy,
Ask kulang po for renewal kasi ako pero expired na passport ko, tpos mag change ako ng family name kasi naka pag asawa na ako.. Ang nandto kulang na id’s ay..

PS – I tried searching similar question, none was found.
Shar says
Parents ko from davao nag travel sila to gensan to file for passports. Yung dad ko na approved yung mama and kapatid ko hindi kasi daw yung birth certificate nila photocopy lang. eg sabi ng LCR OKAY lang daw mag file gamit yun. may tatak and confirmed by civil registrar and certified true copy yun but DFA wont accept it. On the way pa kasi original nso nila. Does it really have to be original nso? Bat sabi ng LCR okay ang photocopy. Sumakit ulo ko. Nag travel pa sila ng ka layo layo tapos hindi pala sila tumatanggap ng copy of their nso. I need answer please. Thanks.
Mommy Levy says
as far as I know they really need the NSO/PSA original copy of birth certificate
e says
hmm. bakit daw hindi tinanggap yung bc from local civil registrar? nakalagay naman sa website nila (for renewal) psa or local civil registrar copy ng bc pwede. and alam nyo ba if they need a new civil registrar copy din? mine is 2002 pa. i don’t have psa pa kasi. nso lang.. so i was hoping na tanggapin yung. local civil registrar bc.
Gemma says
Hi pano po kumuha ng transcribed birth certificate?
Joshua says
Hi po,
Tanong ko lang po kung anu-anong mga original copies at photocopies ang kinukuha nila.
At ano pong mga importante na details ang tinitingnan nila sa BC na dapat clear, kase may ibang entries sa akin na nagsasapawan na ang words sa line nya sa baba, kaya medyo malabo siyang mabasa pag di malapitan.
Brian says
Hi po Ma’am,
Thanks for posting this. Somehow, magkaparehas ang situation ko dito. Pabalik balik din po ako kasi blank ang place of birth ko sa valid ID.
Now, I got my updated valid ID and the place of birth is “NCR -Manila”. Hindi siya same ng nasa Birth Cert ko. Nakalagay sa birth certificate ko ay ang pangalan ng ospital.
Mahohonor po ba yun ng DFA?
Thanks
Mommy Levy says
mas importante ang birth certificate kesa sa ID.
Michelle says
Hello, Ma’am Levy!
So, my appointment will be on Feb. 27 but I have a problem with the spelling of my last name in my NSO, instead of an E, naging I. My mom went to the LCR pero sabi nila it will take 6 months for it to be changed. Will NSO consider? Ano po sa tingin niyo dapat kong gawin? May planned family trip kami this April and it would be sad if di ako makasama because I dont have a passport.
Thank you!
Rio says
Hello po original NSO (birth cert.) po ba ang kukunin ng dfa.kasi original birth po kasi ang kinuha sa akin.thank you.
Mommy Levy says
usually PSA copy ng birth certificate ang kinukuha nila
erika says
Hello Mam. Sana mabasa mo pa to, okay lang po ba na NSO kasi wala kaming PSA, or pareho lang po ung PSA and NSO?
Mommy Levy says
same lang ang PSA at NSO, kaso mas updated form ang PSA. Sabi ng iba yun na daw tinatanggap ngayon
Jessieca says
Hi Maam Levy ask ko lng po kung halimbawa kung yung birth certificate ng mom ko at marriage contract nya magkaiba yug spelling would that be an issue? kukuha kse sya ng passport e
Nada says
Hello Ma’am Levy!
Ask q lang po tinatanggap pa po ba ung Postal ID sa DFA?
Kasi sa DFA web page inalis na nila postal as primary ID. Naging supporting na lng po.
Thanks.
Mommy Levy says
let’s follow what’s indicated in the site since I am not connected to them to know kung anong ID ang tinatanggap nila 🙂
Chin says
tanong ko lang po kong ma iisuehan po ba ako ng passport may mali kasi sa apelyido ng tatay ko sa nso birth nag kamali yung nanay ko dati ngayun ko lang po napansin na yung apelyido ng nanay ko ang nalagay niya sa dapat last name ng tatay ko. For example yun name ko po is Juana Dela Cruz Valenzuela, yung Maiden name ng nanay ko is Maria Vergara Dela Cruz,yung sa tatay ko nman po is Mario Pedrosa Dela Cruz , instead na Mario Pedrosa Valenzuela . Pano po ba yan ma iisuehan po ba ako ng Passport ng DFA? ,pero wala naman pong problema sa pangalan ko po and information ko . dahil okay naman pati bday ko yung surname lang talaga ng tatay ko ang mali. pano po ba yan makakakuha pa po ako ng passport?? since wala naman probs sa ids at pangalan q. nd naman need diba ang pangalan ng tatay po.?Nkapag pa appoint na po kasi ako
Mommy Levy says
I’m not sure, pero mukhang malaking pagkakamali ‘to. If you are near any DFA branch, please visit before your scheduled appointment to ask para magawan ng paraan kung di pwede.
von says
hello po….yung akinpo kasi mali uung birth of place.. pano po kaya yun??
Mommy Levy says
same po tayo, malamang po gagawin nyo din ang pinagawa sakin
Ahramae Monton says
paano po ginawa nyo ? same prob po mali rin nailagay sa birthplace ko??
Mommy Levy says
pakibasa po. Andyan na lahat ng ginawa ko.
mark sy says
maam levy. yung aking po. apeyido ng tatay ko. olmillo. pero olmilo lng nalagay ko? pano yun?
Mommy Levy says
fix it at the DFA na lang
Eddie says
Hello! Tanong ko lang po if ano pong mangyayari if NSO birth certificate po ang meron instead of PSA?
Kailangan na naman po ba magpareschedule ng passport application? Pahirapan na naman po ba. Hehehehehe
Thank you po.
Monagin Detablan says
Hello po! Ask ko lang, diba pinabalik kayo? May sinabi ba sila if magpapa-appointment kayo ulit? Or pwede lang bumalik as soon as masecure niyo na yung pinapakuha nila na supporting documents?
Thanks po. NSO po yung birth cert ko. Bago naman po siya kaya di po ako kumuha ng PSA copy. E sa 31 na ang appointment ko. I checked online, pwde naman raw yung NSO sabi sa website nila. Huhu.
Mommy Levy says

Omar Kenneth Benosa says
Thank you for posting this as I have the same issue with my birth certificate, the place of birth is missing. I find your post very helpful.

Clarisse says
Hi po..nso po ba inaaccept pa sa dfa?😊
Jessa Mae Agas says
Hi maam tatanongin ko lang po sana di po ba magkakaproblema pag nagpassport po ako na walang middle name?
Mommy Levy says
middle name is important. I don’t know, maybe if your surname is your mom’s surname too then I guess pwedeng walang middle name
Pamela Maupoy says
Hi Ms. Levy
I have the same problem now. Ask ko lang po after 7 days, ang makukuha nyo po sa Manila City Hall is the supplemental report then pwede na po pumunta sa DFA afterwards or may other process pa po? Thanks!
Mommy Levy says
from Manila City Hall, dadalhin mo ang documents sa NSO para maprocess at makapag release ng corrected documents, tapos yun ang dadalhin sa DFA
caren says
kahit saang nso branch po ba pwd dalhin ang mga supplemental reports?
Mommy Levy says
not sure po, kasi sa head office nila ako mismo nagpunta

Rose Angelie says
Hello po Ma’am Levy, ask lang ako if pwede ba ang NSO birth cert o kelangan talaga na PSA ang dalhin? Kasi may NSO and PSA copy ako pero medyo matagal ko na itong naikuha. pati dn po sa lola ko (76y.o) wala syang PSA kasi below 1950 sya pinanganak. Kelangan po ba talaga naming kumuha ng panibago? She have SSS id and Senior Citizens ID na man po. ako may NBI, Police, UMID & Postal. Pa help po salamat! Later na kasi ang schedule ko 🙁
Mommy Levy says
ano po nangyari? tinanggap ba?
WinnGee says
Hi! I just realized na yung voters id ng partner ko does not have II in it. Di ba tatanggapn un?
Bale ang id lng na match sa PSA nya is UMID, then barangay clearance and HS yearbook. Pwede na po kaya un?
Mommy Levy says
isa lang naman pong valid ID kailangan, pwede na ang UMID
april says
hello po mam ask ko lang po pede po kaya sa DFA yung ID ko voters ID po single ang status…tapos yung postal ko married po pti NBI ko may marriage contract din po ako na naka PSA
worry lang ako kasi yong valid Id ko single ang status…de pa po kasi pede maka pag change status kasi la pa schedule
Mommy EmGee says
Hi,
I just set an appointment for the 3 of us this March. Nagset ako for 3, that includes my 2 year old son kaso ang lumabas lang is 2 applicants. Wala po ba tlgang details na fifillupan pag 2yrs old?
Secondly, Yung PSA copy ba is same sa NSO copy? kumuha na kasi ako last year. Wala naman nakalagay na validity
Mommy Levy says
Hi Mommy, yung 2 years old pwede na hindi magpa appointment. Yes same ang NSO at PSA copy at yes wala talagang nakalagay na validity.
Liz1007 says
Hi mam! Just want to ask, misspelled po kasi yung middle name ng father ko on my birth certificate ( ‘i’ instead of ‘e’).. kelangan ko pa po kaya yun ipabago sa NSO/PSA? or good to go na po iyon? Thanks
Mommy Levy says
I think your details is what matter most. Unless iba yung inunput nyo sa DFA appointment, baka don kayo matanong. Paki kwento po kung ano mangyayari pagpunta nyo.
Kevin Bautista says
Yung sakin mali na typo yung nakalagay sa DFA appointment ko na instead of 1993 eh 1992 yung nalagay sa birthdate. magkaproblema po ba yun or pede na dun na iadjust mismo sa DFA yun? hmm.
Okkin says
Hi eve po mommy, may discrepancy po kasi yung mother’s maiden name ko sa BC…
Makakaapekto po ba yun sa pagkuha ko ng passport?
Thanka po..

Rye says
Hello po Ma’am Levy,
Hindi po ba talaga tatanggapin ang NSO Birth Certificate? Tom na po kasi ung appointment ko.
Mommy Levy says
try nyo na lang po since wala na kayo panahon kumuha ng PSA. Pag pinabalik po kayo at hindi tinanggap, paki feedback po dito para alam namin na talagang di na sila nag accept ng NSO copy. Salamat
Ramil Aquino says
Hi everyone! may friend akong nag apply ng passport last month at hindi tinanggap yung bago nyang NSO, hindi po luma or decade old yung NSO birth cert nya, pero hindi parin tinanggap, pinakuha siya ulet ng PSA dahil yun na daw ang name ng office at malinaw naman daw na yun ang nakalagay sa website sa list of requirements. Hope this helps! 🙂
Mommy Levy says
hays sayang yung document nya
Kelly says
Hi po ma’am Rye ,inaccept ba nila yong NSO mo?Jan. 31 kasi yung appointment ko.NSO lang din sakin.Salamat po sa sagot.
Mommy Levy says
tinanggap ba nila?
Aileen says
Hi Mommy Levy,
How are you po?
First time ko din kumuha ng passport (last January 15, 2018 ang appointment ko) at pinapabalik po ako dahil they were asking for supporting documents kasi ang nadala ko lang po is Postal ID na bago, NBI clearance at PSA copy na birth certificate. As of now, my docs are the following:
Postal ID
NBI clearance
PSA copy of birth certificate
Police clearance
Philhealth MDR (they specifically asked for this)
SSS Member data form (since 2 months pa ma release yung UMID po)
Alumni ID
Old college ID
Cedula
They asked for TOR and MDR but ang TOR ko po is 3-4 weeks pa ma release kaya dadalhin ko po yung alumni id tsaka old college id since andun naman sa list. Tapos d rin po ako makakuha nang voter’s certificate kasi d po makita sa comelec ang record ko kahit registered po ako.
Sa tingin nyo po enough na ang mga ito? Thanks po sa advice.
Mommy Levy says
Kung yang mga yan ay kasama sa list ng supporting documents sa DFA website then I think you are good to go
Aileen says
Thank you po! I’m going back next week po since I dont have time to travel na this week. From Pagadian City pa po ako tapos sa CDO dfa po ang appointment ko.
I’ll post a feedback! Thanks again.
Arriane says
Hi sis. Nakakuha kaba passport ? Inaprove ba nila old college id ?
Pearl says
Hi, Mommy Levy! I read Aileen’s comment about the documents. I heard na sobrang strict na daw nowadays. In DFA’s old list, they used to accept the old college and company IDs, premium postal ID for primary identification but now they ask for the UMID, driver’s license etc. A girl who went to DFA Alimall told me that they asked her to reschedule once she has the SSS ID kahit ang dami na niyang dalang documents. Sobrang strict daw dun and she read a lot of negative feedback so she decided to wait for a schedule sa Novaliches na. I plan to get a TIN card, police clearance, SSS MDR in case hindi marelease in time yung ID. March pa appointment ko but I heard the UMID sometimes takes 2-3 months to be sent. I hope Aileen provides a feedback about her experience after. Thanks!
Mommy Levy says
thanks for the info PEarl
Jemjem says
My kids and i are planning to travel to thailand this may. The problem is, ung birth certificate ko ay may error. Male ako instead na female. Hindi ba yun iaaccepr ng dfa?
Mommy Levy says
perhaps they will ask you to correct it.
Camille says
Hi po Momi Levy,
Ask ko lang po kung paano tatay ko di ko naman kilala kasi naghiwalay sila ng nanay ko nung bata pa ako tapos pagkita ko sa PSA BC iba pala ang middle name nya! Sa Metro Manila po kasi ako pinanganak pero ngayon nasa Batangas na po ako. Duon lang po ba ako makakakuha ng papel para maitama po yung mali sa Birth Certificate ko? Saka po January 29 na yun schedule ko, pag hindi po ba tinanggap pwede bumalik?
Salamat po!
Mommy Levy says
I don’t know if this is important in DFA. Please go back here kung di tatanggapin application nyo or okay na.
April Delaria says
Hi po,
Got the same problem with Ren, wherein the only missing in the place of birth is ‘Manila’. In my BC is just the name of the lying-in, its address and Tondo. So I’m thankful that I was able to read this blog while doing my research. I prepared all the needed documents, even the DFA appointment paper that says I need supplemental for PoB, so I can l just pass it and hoping to be processed that day. However when I came to Manila City Hall they gave me a different requirement list, which is for CORRECTION OF BIRTHPLACE. It got more requirements that includes a certification from the hospital/lying-in of their address. I showed the DFA paper to the personnel at Step1 but mentioned that these are what I need. As I’ve checked they still have the same requirements for supplemental records so I know that they gave me a different list from what you’ve processed with Ren. I’m confused and decided to just go home and think of what to do, since I also don’t know the exact location of the lying-in where I was born. I’m currently working na din po and got a little time to processed these papers.
PS. There is also a registration fee of P1000.00 that is indicated below that made me even believed they got me wrong.
Should I go back there and ask for the supplemental requirements instead? Your suggestion will be a great help po. Thank you in advance.
Mommy Levy says
ohhh did you show them the paper from DFA?
April Delaria says
Hi,
I did po. 🙁
Lianne says
Hi. I have that same case. Lying in lang nakalagay sa birth cert ko then sabi ayusin ko daw and pagbalik ko dala din ako nbi clearance? Need ba talaga nbi clearance? Thanks.
April Delaria says
Hi po!
I’ve got same problem with your son, no ‘Manila City’ in the Place of Birth, just the lying in clinic’s name then Tondo. And I’m thankful I got the chance to read this blog while doing my research. So i’m all prepared with my documents when I went to Manila City hall. However, when I got to the City Hall just this morning they gave me a different requirement. 🙁 They gave me the requirments for the correction of Birth place which includes going to the clinic to secure some certification. 🙁 As i’ve check they still have the same requirments for the supplemental report. I dont know what to follow. I’ve got little time since I’m already working na po.
PS. There’s a fee for registration that is included. I’m thinking I am already registered and its not right to pay for another registration when i just have to add ‘Manila’ in my Place of Birth?
winston says
ask lng po kumuha me psa bc ko last friday jan.12.2018 nkita ko na ung ibang letra ng name ng mother at father ay hindi cya clear ,pero ung complete name at birth of place ko ay clear ung kina parents lng ung mga ilang letra ng name nila lng hindi cya clear pwede po b un sa dfa itong nkuha ko na meron slight unreadable na letter sa name ng parents ko pra sna sa renewal ng passport
Mommy Levy says
baka naman mas maluwag sila pag renewal na
ginu says
hello maam levy,meron lang po akong konting katanungan may sched po ako sa dfa at ang nakalagay na time is 16:00-17:00 for my appointment,,yan din ba ang susundin ko na time or pwede mas maaga ako pupunta???tnx
Mommy Levy says
kung ano yung time na pinili nyo sa DFA site, yan ang susundin.
Warren Lyn Cutara says
Hi maam Levy. Tanong ko lang po importante po ba sa DFA yong pangalan ng tatay ko. Kasi po yong Jr. po nya nakalagay don naka.handwritten po.. Okay lng po bah yun or big deal paba yan sa DFA.?. Kung sa impormasyon ko naman wla namang problema only my fathers suffixes name.. Baka kasi hindi tanggapin sa DFA office.. Masyadong mataas na proseso po ang pag.papacorrect sa NSO if ganon mangyayari. Salamat po ..
Warren Lyn Cutara says
After 6 months pa po matatapos yong NSO ko if ipapacorrect.
Mommy Levy says
Yes alam ko kailangan pa ng affidavit pag naging problema ito. Pero sa tingin ko mas importante ang details mo kesa sa parents (but I’m not sure since I am not connected with DFA). Perhaps you can inquire directly sa kanila kung magiging problema ba yun sa pagkuha ng passport mo.
Melody says
Hi, mommy levy! I’m experiencing the same thing too 🙁 I really am desperate because why should I fix something that wasn’t my fault in the first place? The problem with my birth certificate is that the place of my birth is abbreviated. LC ang nakalagay instead of Lucena City. I already filed for a correction but they said it will take up to 4-5 months. Why is that? 🙁 I’ve read that your son was able to get it corrected within 7 days. Is the location a factor? I live here in Quezon Province. Should I go to Manila mismo para mapacorrect ko po agad yung birth certificate?
Please help me 🙁
Mommy Levy says
it took us a month to correct it (PSA copy) not 7 days Melody. Yes I think the location is one of the factor.
Mark jayson de luna says
Madam halos ganyan din issue ko..may idea kayo kung gano katagal bigay na palugit ng dfa about requirements?
Melody says
Yung appointment ko raw po is good up to 6 months basta hindi ko po mawawala yung form
Ferrari Sam Y. Ferrer says
Question po, pano kung mali lang yung nalagay na home address sa Passport application?
Ano po yung gagawin?
Mommy Levy says
try nyo na lang po ipa correct sa DFA mismo.
Pearl says
Medyo nagworry ako sa question ng isang reader. I checked my husband’s PSA birth certificate and indicated sa place of birth is Cab. City for Cabanatuan City then abbreviated yung Nueva Ecija as N. E. Would that be a problem, Mommy Levy? Kasi if ever, papalakad ko na. Sa March yung appointment namin na buong family. Nakakaloka kasi di naman fault ng mga tao yan. Yung mga nagfill out for NSO before may kagagawan. Tsk tsk.
Would 2 PSA marriage certificates be enough? Kasama namin ng husband ko daughter namin sa pag-apply. I filled out her info sa appointment kasi mag-8 years old na siya next month.
Mommy Levy says
mam kung yung nabasa nyo ay base sa experience ng mga nakapunta na, I think it’s best if ipapaayos nyo na habang may panahon pa. Kesa mag antay kayo ng March tapos di po tatanggapin. I am not connected to DFA so I am not sure if they will accept it or not.
Elyssa Loraine says
HI ask ko lang po if Lost passport need parin ng NSO birth Certificate? wala po kasi akong copy since kasama po sya sa nawala
Mommy Levy says
request na lang po kayo ng bagong PSA copy ng birth certificate. Pwede sa SM Billing Center
irish says
hi po nagkamali po aq ng lagay ng address sa form ng dfa imbes na block 2 block 3 po nalagay ko mapapacorrect ko po ba yon pag punta ko don sa jan 27? ty
Mommy Levy says
there will be some delay I think kasi malinaw na nakalagay sa website na icheck mabuti ang details bago isave. Pero tingin ko mapapaayos naman sa kanila.
Annellaj says
Hi mam levy ask ko lng po sa psa ko po wlang nationality yung mga prents ko..ang mali ko lng ksi ngaun ko lng napnsin.pero LBC meron pong nationality.tanggapin po kya ng dfa.slamat pi
tin says
Hi. Itatanong ko lang sna if pwede bang mga Photocopies ang ipresent? Kasi mga Original copy ko is napasa ko na for my requirements sa work? Thank you.
Mommy Levy says
original po ang kailangan nila
Arjay says
Hi po ask ko lang if kinukuha po ba talaga nila yung original NSO BirthCertificate ?
Mommy Levy says
yes
Pearl says
Will these documents/IDs suffice for new passport application:
premium postal ID
old college and old employment IDs
PSA copy birth and marriage certificates I got months ago
SSS E-1 form
barangay clearance
year book and transcript of grades I got more than a decade ago from my university
I’m a freelancer and I don’t know how to drive so yung premium postal ID lang gov’t issued ID ko. Ang tagal din kasi kumuha ng ibang IDs. Our appointment is in March 2018. my husband has his driver’s license and premium postal ID along with his old employment IDs kaya wala na siyang problema. For our daughter, we’ll just bring her old school ID, form 137 and birth certificate.
Yung birth certificate ko has corrections. Inayos na namin sa local civil registrar in 2010 dahil sa misspelled name ko, last name ng father ko and other errors. Yung original copy submitted sa LCR tama eh. Yung pinasa sa NSO dati puro mali. Nilakad ng auntie ko in Rizal. I live in Cavite so isipin yung hassle if ako yung pupunta. I just gave my authorization letter and IDs sa school and company to show na yung spelling dun yung gamit ko my whole life. I have NSO copies of our birth certificates and LCR copy of our marriage contract. Same with you hindi ko din magets bakit need ng new (within the year) copy from PSA. Kawawa yung mga pinapabalik tapos galing pa sa malalayong lugar or pinanganak sa provinces.
Mommy Levy says
I think you’re good to go. Di ko din gets bat nagkakamali sa NSO kung tama naman sa local registrar
Pearl says
Sobrang strict nga nila kaya kawawa yung mga may errors sa names and places of birth kahit hindi nila fault.Sa case ng mom before ko pag check sa NSO, Fe yung nakalagay na first name niya. Yun daw ang niregister pero all her life, ang gamit niya Nilda. Inabot ng months bago naayos. Buti may relative kami who works in the municipal hall sa province namin na tumulong. Kaya I checked all our documents. We went to the LCR last year kasi napansin ko yung place of marriage namin sa birth certificate ng daughter namin is Manila City Hall instead of Manila City lang though dun naman located talaga yung LCR where the marriage was registered. Sabi ng LCR, no problem naman daw yun. Kahit hindi na palitan.
Arvie Francisco says
Hi Mommy Levy,
I had a passport appointment last Jan.06, pero nung chineck po nila place of birth ko sa PSA birth certificate, walang naka-inidicate kung saang city so, the officer told me to have a certified copy of filing ng supplemental report from the city hall to add the city in my birth certificate record. Itatanong ko lang po sana, kung yung copy lang ba ng supplemental report yung dadalhin ko kapag bumalik ako sa DFA or need ko hintayin na ma-update sa PSA yung pina-add na city sa birthplace ko?
Mommy Levy says
kailangan updated na PSA copy ang dadalhin sa DFA po
Joanne says
mommy levy, paano kung wala pang PSA, tinatanggap ba ng DFA kahit SECPA lang?
Mommy Levy says
I’m not sure if they will accept a SECPA copy
April Delaria says
Hi Arvie.
Same situation here. San ka nagapply ng supplemental? When I processed mine sa Manila City Hall they gave me the Correction of birthplace requirments that will also tale 4-5 months to process.
Kat says
HI! Nagpa appointment po uli kayo?
Mommy Levy says
hindi po kasi PWD po anak ko
Len says
Hi Mommy Levy,
Meron lang din po ako concern regarding din sa passport application. I already have the supporting documents which is comelec certification and NBI clearance. We are waiting for the improved postal ID as the primary documents. Naka schedule na po kasi sa Jan 15. Just incase hindi pa po dumating ang postal ID, mapprocess pa din po kaya un application? Or pede kami humingi ng extension para makabalik ulit without making a new appointment? Wala na po kasi talaga makuha available slots mabilis po maubos.
Thank you po
Mommy Levy says
wala na nga slots, kaka check ko lang ngayon. Try nyo na lang po, sana okay na yang dala nyong documents.
Melody says
Punta na rin po kayo. Sabi naman po is kahit wala na kayong appointment next time na bumalik kayo.
I think it helps that you actually show up sa appointment 🙂
Len says
Hello po, yes nga po. Appointment namen nun Jan 15, we only have NBI and Comelec Cert kasi hindi umabot un postal ID buti na lang po na process naman. Pero I think depende sa processor or san Satellite office yun iba po kasi mahigpit talaga.
Judi says
Hi ma’am levy,
Nagpa appointment po ako sa dfa na single tapos ngaun po echange kopo sana status ko from single to married . E aaccept po ba nila ung appointment ko na single? O need pa po mag re appointment? Thanks in advance
Mommy Levy says
need po baguhin yung details sa application nyo
judy says
paano po ba baguhin yung details ng application maam? Name ko po kase BC ko
judy-ann ,walang space tapos ang nalagay ko po sa info ko judy – ann , may dash na. Naka booked na po ako . pwede pa po ba yung mabago ? Thanks!
Mommy Levy says
wala pong way para mabago ang details na na input nyo kundi pag punta nyo na lang don sa DFA mismo.
Nathalie Tiong says
Hello po! Tanong ko lang po sana kung kakailanganin pa po bang magpa sched ulit kahit na pinapabalik na lang po ako sa DFA pag na-fix ko na raw yong na-trace po nilang mistakes sa birth certificate ko or dalhin ko pa rin po yong dati kong appointment form? Oct 21,2017 po nong pumunta ako sa DFA. Balik na lang daw po ako dun, Monday-Friday raw open sila pero di sinabi sa akin ang exact date po ng pagbalik. Eh natagalan po sa pag-aayos ng birth certificate ko kaya this Jan po binabalak kong bumalik don.
Mommy Levy says
alam ko may validity time frame yung pag balik pero di ako sure gano katagal. If malapit kayo sa DFA, better kung macheck nyo na lang kung tatanggapin pa nila yung scheduled date nyo. Sabihin nyo na lang na wala naman sinabi sa inyong date.
earl:3 says
pde ka lng po bumalik anytime maam. kasi may problem din ako sa PoB ko. pero sabi sakin, balik lng ako anytime pag okay na. dalhin lang po ang old appointment form.
camille says
hello ma’am ask ko lang po kung need pa po ba talaga na sa Manila municipal hall magpunta para mapalagyan ng birth of place at birth of registration? thanks
Mommy Levy says
kung san po kayo ipinanganak na munisipyo
haydee says
Hi mam ask ko lang po kasi nag pa schedule po ako dec. 18, 2017 for passport appointment but then may mali sa nso ko walang province yung birth place ko pinapapunta po ako sa city hall pra ma issuehan ako ng bagong psa na may complete birth place ko na, ok lang po ba na ndi ako maka balik sa dfa? ndi ko po kasi maaus nso ko at sunday lang off thanks
Mommy Levy says
okay lang po kasi di rin nila tatanggapin NSO nyo hanggat di nyo napapaayos
Zyra says
Mam. Aapply po kase live in partner ko. Mag oonline po kase kami sa passport kase asa aklan po kami tas iloilo papo kukuhain kaya po magpapasched nalang po kami. Yung problem po namin e. Kelangan namin magdala ng isang valid id niya which is he only have a Voters Id card but sadly his date of birth is incorrect . Pwede parin po ba yun magdadala nalang kami ng PSA cert. Niya na patunay na 17 tlga birthday niya hindi 12 ang date? Thank you po!
Mommy Levy says
perhaps they will consider the birth of place rather than the ID.
Zyra says
So ok napo yun mam kahit ala kaming marepresent na ID? Basta meron ako ng PSA niya? ILOILO po kase kami kukuha😊 baka kase di pwede kaya humanap po ako ng mapagtatanungan. SALAMAT PO 😊 GODBLESS!
Mommy Levy says
Kuha na lang po kayo Postal ID para sure.
diana says
hello po maam levy ask ko lng po kung valid pa po ba yung NSO mariage contract or need po talaga PSA na para po sa requirements sa passport.thank you po
MVB says
Hi Mommy Levy,
Happy New Year,
Almost same kme ng problem ni Ren, mine the place of birth is present however its incomplete, naka lagay lang yung name ng clinic without the specific address.
May passpost nko before kaso need ko magpa renew. Nakausap ko na yung sa Manila City Hall, makukuha ko daw yung finals docs after 4-5mos, then sa PSA after 1-2mos daw.
Very disappointing, was about to go abroad for my best friends wedding kaso wala. Dami delay
Mommy Levy says
I feel you 🙁
isabel says
hi ask ko lang sana ngkamali kasi ako sa spelling ng mother’s maiden name pwede B palitan yun or inform nalng za dfa pag appointment na
Mommy Levy says
as of now sa DFA website naglalagay na sila ng warning bago mag input na icheck mabuti ang ilalagay bago isubmit kasi nagko cause ng delay. Maari pong pwedeng palitan sa DFA mismo, pero baka madelay kayo or ipaulit. Hindi ko po alam.
Chrislyn says
Ask ko lang pwede pb akong kumuha ng passport ang schedule ko kasi ay Nov 7 2017 kaso Nagka problem birth certificate ko pero now okay na pwede pa ba akong bumalik please answer po!!!???
Mommy Levy says
paschedule na lang po kayo ulit.
catherine says

Anthony says
Hello ask ko lang since married couple kami.. do we need 2 PSA Marriage certificate or just one will do for both of us? baka kse kailangan tig isa kami nang isusubmit? Thank you.
Mommy Levy says
as far as I know tag isa po kayong copy
Ron says
Hi,
Just want to ask…my wife’s name is mispelled on our certificate of marriage, can she still renew her passport at the DFA? the last time she applied for a passport, we just used an notarized affidavit stating that the person in the birth certificate and the certificate of marriage is one and the same. do you think it will still work?
Thank you 🙂
Mommy Levy says
you could try Ron, let us know if that’s okay. Thanks!
Sheryl says
Hi! Can I ask if you have any idea; if the marriage certificate issued by PSA is already the “authenticated by PSA” needed for passport application of minors?
Written in DFA website:
• Marriage Certificate of minor’s parents duly authenticated by PSA (for legitimate child)
And in this requirement:
• Personal appearance of either parent and valid passport of parents (if minor is a legitimate child)
About the valid passport; does it mean both parents passport, what if the other parent is ofw? Or does the whole sentence mean personal appearance and valid passport of either of the parents?
Thanksss..
Mommy Levy says
yes it is
Mommy Levy says
for the • Personal appearance of either parent and valid passport of parents (if minor is a legitimate child)
Valid Passport and personal appearance of either of the parents
Ronald says
Hello po, tanong ko lang kung kailangan talaga ng birth certificate sa renewal ng passport? general requirement po ba talaga oh pwedeng wala? thanks!
Mommy Levy says
pinakaimportante pong documents ito na kailangan
ces says
hi..kelangan ba talaga ng marriage certificate sa pagkuha ng passport mali kase ung birthday niya sa marriage cert niya..twice n kse xa failed sa pgkuha ng passport..thanks..😕
Mary says
Hello ask ko lang po kasi po namali po yung sa application form po namin ng pinsan ko bali iba po yung birth place na nalagay.. Mag bobook po ba kami ulit or pwede pong dun nalang ayusin sa dfa yun pagdating namin?
Mommy Levy says
baka po pwede na don na ayusin
Aaa says
Yan din problema namin mali yung place of birth sa application form wala kasing nakalagay kung place of birth ba yun or what then nagulat lang kami na yung place of birth ay may nakalagay sa lugar na mali so pwede bang ipabago na lang yun sa step 1 total sa step 1 naman ay verification. Tyaka hindi naman siguro namin kasalanan kung mali yung nakalagay na place of birth kasi wala naman talagang nakalagay na place of birth nagulat na lang kami na may nakalagay at mali?
Romy Lloyd Cruz says
Hi Ma’am,
Tanong lang po. Need po ba talaga na PSA yung Birth Certificate? Or pwede pa rin yung sa NSO. Kasi may friend po ako na ang sabi is PSA nalang po daw yung tinatanggap, tapos nagtanong ako sa Civil Registrar, ang sabi dun pwede parin ang NSO. Thanks po at sana masagot nyo po ito kung pwede pa ba ang NSO or dapat PSA na.
Mommy Levy says
pwede po yung nso birth certificate.
remember lang po, hindi nila tinatanggap yung nso kung…blurred yung copy – Ranz (please check his comments)
If you still have time to get a PSA copy then do so, if not then perhaps you could try and just bring your NSO copy.
Romy Lloyd Cruz says
Hi Ma’am. Confirmed na po pala na hindi na sila tumatanggap ng NSO copy po. I asked about it po dun sa PSA Office. Tapos may friend din po ako na hindi na po tinanggap yung NSO nya kasi dapat PSA na yung Birth Certificate. Please share this info nalang din po 😉 thanks!
MARY jane says
Hi po we just applied for our passport sa dfa alimall cubao last dec 28 and nso yung birth certificate namin ng husband ko inaccept naman nila kay baby lang na birth cert and marraige namin ang psa
Elds says
Hi
Tumingin na ako sa website ng dfa. Sa babae lang ba hinahanapan ng marriage contract? Yun kasi nakalagay sa website.
Mommy Levy says
I can’t remember pero kung ano yung nakalagay sa site then yun lang po siguro
Eira says
Ask ko lang po. hindi na ba tinatanggap ng DFA ung birth cert at marriage contract from NSO? Do we need to get birth cert at marriage contract from PSA pa?
pls. reply as soon as you can.. thanks…
Romy Lloyd Cruz says
Hi Eira,
Yes you have to get PSA copies po. Hindi na po tinatanggap sa DFA yung old NSO Copies. Yun kasi sabi sa PSA office at sa friend ko na kakakuha nya lang din ng passport.
RAE VENIA MARAVILLA says

Good pm ..i know what is a marriage certificate issued by psa but what is a certified true copy of marriage contract issued by local registrar duly authenticated by nso?where can i get this?and does it take time?i just got married last dec6 2017..thank u
Mommy Levy says
you can get it from your local municipality. It is different from PSA.
Kaye says
Hi Mommy Levy! May I know po gaano katagal pa sa PSA bago maupdate po yung Birth certificate na with supplemental report for Place of birth? Same problem din po sakin empty din. Meron na akong copy ng supplemental report from LCR ipapasa ko nalang sa PSA. Pero gaano po katagal bago maupdate ng PSA? Thank you po!
Mommy Levy says

Jerick Leguiab says
Reply nmn po pls
Mommy Levy says

Jerick says
Hi mam levy. Ask ko lng ano po pwde i suggest nyo.

Cana says
Hi po! I saw your blog because I was searching if there’s anyone who got rescheduled with DFA due to documents or requirements na hindi po tinanggap. As for my case, yung TIN ID and POSTAL ID ko ang hindi nila tinanggap. I just got a question po, in case you would know, kasi the personnel advised me to go back to submit valid IDs and wrote a date above my original appointment date (Nov 3). She wrote po ng Dec 3. I was unable to catch what she said kung “on or before” or kahit after since Dec 3 would fall on a Sunday… Did you had a similar experience po nung pinabalik kayo to submit the “valid” requirements po? Thanks so much in advance. Will surely appreciate your help po!
Mommy Levy says
I think that’s on or before Dec3
Ashley Francisco says
Hi Mam ,
I had appointment last june but my bc that time was nso. They required psa. It took me 2 months to get my psa can i still get back to dfa or must i make a new appointment (ps . They did not put date of when must i comply)
ranz says
ako na po sasagot nyan.
na re-sched ako dito due to requirements.
you have exactly one month to get all your necessary requirements.
if you fail to return after a month, you need to re-sched again.
Roselan Bolante says

jennymar says

jek says
Question po, ano po ba yung kulay ng nso birth certificate ang tinutukoy dito?white or yellow?
Parehas kase ako meon ng nso birth certificate, white and yellow. Then yung brother ko nag apply ng passport using yellow na nso birth certificate na tinanggap po sa dfa and naprocess naman po passport nya.
Mommy Levy says
mam logo lang po ang dapat pansinin NSO or PSA copy. PSA copy na daw po ang tinatanggap ngayon.
jek says
Hi po. Katapos ko lang po mag apply and tinanggap naman po nila yung nso logo na yellow colored na birth certificate ko. Mabilis lang po wala pa 30mins naprocess na agad. 🙂
JP Enales says
Hi Jek
Pwede yung NSO Birth Certificate? and ano pang mga requirements pinasa mo? Sang DFA ka nagpunta? Thanks!
ranz says
ako na rin po sasagot nito.
pwede po yung nso birth certificate.
remember lang po, hindi nila tinatanggap yung nso kung…blurred yung copy.
if yun yung case, manghihingi sila nung copy from munisipyo.
sa megamall ako nag apply.
ang dala ko lang… nso at munincipal birth certificates, nbi, umid.
if may questions ka pa ask lang.
Shiena says
hindi naba tinatanggap yung NSO na logo ngayon?
Mommy Levy says
I think PSA copy na tinatanggap
Mommy Levy says
Pero may mga nag co comment naman dito na tinatanggap pa din. If you still have time get a PSA copy na pero kung wala na, try nyo na lang po yung NSO copy nyo kung tatanggapin
Vanesa says
Makaka pag pagawa ba aq ng passportq .on process na petitionq kxe wrong spelling ung surename ng husbandq.pero bibugyan aq ng certificate.psa.tatanggapin ba sa dfa un tnx pi
Kim says
Hello po ask ko lang po nso din dala ko sabi sakin kumuha muna ako psa at bumalik na lang daw need ko pa po ba mag sched ng appointment? Or ok na bumalik anytime kasi 1 week po bago ko makuha yung psa ko tnx po
Charl says
ganyan din concern ko. nakabalik kaba ulit? kahit di kana nag sched ng appointment??
Chonalyn Lim says
Hi mommy levy,
Galing kami ng husband ko yesterday sa dfa. And nakita na walang gender sa psa birth cert nya. Pero ng chineck ko sa issued ng city hall na birth cert meron nman. The problem is sa isabela pa xa. Kailangan ba tlga nya pmunta pa run para magfile ng suoplemental report. Thanks
Mommy Levy says

Argie Guillen says
Hi Mommy Levy,
Ask ko lng po sana kung pwede po ba polo shirt lng po ang isuot pagpupunta sa dfa?

Argie Guillen says
Salamat po
katherine Pacardo says
Hi Ms. Levy,

Adrian Filomeno says

magkakaproblema po ba sa dfa un. sa mismong appoint,emnt date
Mommy Levy says
baka don na lang po sa DFA mismo papalitan wala kasi option online na iedit
Kathryn says
Hi po! Gusto ko lang magtanong. Kasi incomplete yung documents and then you had to get new ones, did you have to resched another appointment at the DFA?
Mommy Levy says
nope because my son is PWD, we have a special lane
ranz says
they will give you one month to get all the necessary requirements po.
good luck!
Charl says
Wala rin po sinabi saking date kung hanggang kelan ako pwede magpasa. Nagkaproblema din ako sa requirements. Last Dec 14 yung appointment ko eh. Babalik ako bukas Dec 19 sana pwede pa 🙁
selle says
Hi po, can i ask, can i still go to my appointment even though i don’t have the confirmed appointment? I did apply po and they said that it is scheduled already but the thing is i didn’t get the application code kaya po i can’t open my appointment schedule?
And is NSO still acceptable? or should we we get a new one from PSA?
Mommy Levy says
check your email, you should have the PDF copy of your appointment schedule. I don’t know if they will still accept NSO copy. If you still have time better to get the latest copy (PSA) to be sure.
Joanne says
Hi, i think NSO is the same as PSA.. New name lang ung PSA ngaun coz when I check their website it shows there formerly known as NSO. Thank.
Mommy Levy says
yes they are the same, pero ang pinagtatalunan po kasi is kung tatanggapin ng DFA yung lumang papel na NSO ang nakatatak. May ibang area kasi na tinatanggap may iba naman na gusto latest copy na.
Marielle Nilo says
Hi Ms. Levy,
Just want to ask what did you do next upon getting the supplemental report? Did you get another copy of PSA BC reflecting the missing information?
I applied for a supplemental report just today since the clinic where I was born has no specific city in it. The officer in our city hall did not mention about its transmittal to NSO, but I paid 150 pesos. Close enough to 190 pesos you paid.
Hope you can help me.
Regards,
Marielle
Mommy Levy says
I was the one who brought it to NSO and I get another copy with the corrected details on it.
Marielle Nilo says
Ms. Levy, were you able to get the corrected BC the same day you brought the supplemental report to NSO? Can you share the process you went through?
Thanks again.
Mommy Levy says
no I did not. I waited for another week (as far as I can remember) to get the corrected copy.
Marielle Nilo says
Oh I see. Sorry to bother you Ms. Levy but I have one last question. Hope you can still accomodate. When you mentioned that you went to NSO QC office, is it at PSA-CVEA Building, PSA Compound, East Avenue, Quezon City, to be exact? I’m overwhelmed with many office locations published in google.
Again, thank you for responding. Hoping to get a response too regarding my last question. 🙂
Mommy Levy says
I went to the East Avenue branch, the main building of PSA.
Marielle Nilo says
Thank you very much, Ms. Levy!
Marielle Nilo says
p.s.
Or pwede po ba dun sa PSA Sta. Mesa?
lenie says
Hi mommy Levy! Ask ko lang po kung tatanggapin documents ko such as NSO BC and MC kung photocopy lang po ang dala ko. Pero may UMID ID po ako at PAGIBIG ID. Salamat po.
Mommy Levy says

Mommy Levy says
I’m not sure if that’s okay Jovy, sorry I can’t help you with your question
Sheenaya says
I would like to know if they still accept NSO birth certificate because I heard that they only accept PSA birth certificate.
Mommy Levy says

Jane says

Jane says
Hi maam hehe hindi pa po ako married what i meant is yung naka indicate po na birthplace sa taas ay wala na mabasa pero yung nasa baba nababasa po
Marissa says

Hi Mommy Levy. Ask ko lang po, ung sa akin po kasi incomplete address yung birth place and pinapakuha nga din po ako ng supplemental report sa city hall of Manila since Sta. Ana po yung location ng hospital.
After nyo po ba kumuha ng supplemental report, dinala nyo pa po sa NSO for filing? Or sila na po ba magtransmit nun?
Also, what do I need to bring po besides the requirements listed. As of now, I have my parents’ marriage contract, postal ID and voter’s affidavit.

My husbands BC is blurred, i got a copy from LCR with clear info, will I bring the document/BC from LCR to NSO? Or direct to DFA na? Hope to hear from u soon. Thank u
Mommy Levy says
you mean the existing NSO copy is blurred? If it is not readable at all, then I suggest to apply for a supplemental report in your municipality of birth the bring it to NSO for correction. When you have the corrected copy that’s the time you can bring it to DFA.
stephanie says
hello po ask ko lang kasi nagpa schedule po kami ng baby ko this coming nov. nung july pa po kaso ngayon ko lang po napansin na mali po yung month of birth ko po sa application form pati din po date of birth ng baby ko tatanggapin po kaya kami o papa schedule po ullit?o okay na po yun at doon na po babaguhin mismo sa araw ng schedule po namin. thanks po sa pagsagot
Mommy Levy says

Joy says
Good day po! ask ko lang po kung magkakaprob po ba ako sa renewal kung sa Application form ko may error sa Old passport Number? Pede po ba na i correct un sa printed application form tapos mag signed nalang po ako dun sa may correction? thank you po.
Mommy Levy says

jenny says
blurd name and Location write in shortcut like N.E that supposed to be ay Nueva Ecija dapat. after ba ng supplemental support sa local civil registrar ok na kaya yun…
Mommy Levy says
need dalhin sa NSO ang supplemental report para ma correct
Jenny says
Hi blurd birth certificate PSA kalaunan Lang but blurd nga.. Meron din copy ng local civil registrar kelangan pa ba ng supplemental report dahil blurd ang nasa PSA birth certificate . Or ok na yun sa dfa .. Birth certificate na blurs from PsA at local civil registrar na malinaw pero old copy naitago lang.. Need pa ba ng supplemental then after nun ibabalik sa nso para maging malinaw…
Mommy Levy says
get an updated copy of local civil registar together with your latest copy of PSA. If wala talaga mabasa yes you need a supplemental report po.
cjcas says
hello po asko ko lang po, hindi na po ba nila tinatanggap yung mga NSO birth certificates?
Mommy Levy says
as I have mentioned here, if you still have time to get a new PSA copy then go get one kasi di ako sure kung tatanngapin pa old NSO copy. YUng iba sabi tinatanggap sabi ng iba hindi naman. SO to be sure get a new one na.
Michelle says

Mommy Levy says

Pamela says

Dianna Marie says
Good day po . Ganyan din po nangyari sa akin . ang nakalagay po sa Place of Birth ko po sa Nso is name po ng Hospital , Dapat daw po address mismo na may municipality at Province po. Nakapunta na po ako sa munisipyo sa muntinlupa city ‘ nakakuha na po ako ng papel ng supplemental report . napa notaryo ko na din po . After po nun ano po ang gagawin ? Sana po matulungan nyo ako. nakakalito po kasi , tsaka po anu po mismu requirements . Nung tumawag po ako sa City Registrar ng muntinlupa. kelangan daw po ng 3 documents with Place of birth
Mommy Levy says
after po matapos ang supplemental ang ginawa ko ay dinala ko mismo sa NSO para sa corrected copy.
Dianna Marie says
kahit san po NSO branch or dun po sa place ng muntinlupa ? And ano po yung ginamit nyo na 3 documents para sa Place of birth
Mommy Levy says
sa head office ng NSO ko sa QC sinubmit. Anong 3 documents? sa Supplemental?
Dianna Marie says
3 documents po na may Place of birth pag pinasa sa NSO . nung 2mawag po kasi ako yun ang sabi . May list po ba kayo ng requirements? d ko kasi po mabasa yung nasa picture po
Robert Soriano says
Hi! This thread is very helpful. By the way galing na ako city hall for the correction process ng place of birth at isa sa possible requirement is SSS/GSIS Record, ano po kaya yun? ID or record something na nagbayad ako? Any help would be much appreciated 🙂
Mommy Levy says
I think ID lang. They don’t need your record, wala silang kailangan malaman don.
Roselle says
Good day Mommy Levy. Would like to ask po. may discrepancy sa name at middle name ng mother ko sa aking birth at marriage cert. mapapansin po at maapektuhan po kaya ang passport application ko? Sa marriage cert at dfa online appoinment ko, yung tamang pangalan po ng mother ko ang nilagay ko. baka ma question po ako bakit di po sya pareho sa birth cert ko. Thank you po Mommy Levy.
Mommy Levy says
Hi Roselle, I’m not from DFA so I really don’t know if they will ask you to fix it.
Jey says
Good day po! 🙂
I’m a college student po and first time kukuha ng passport, gusto ko lang po sana itanong kung ano pong mga requirements ang kinukuha nila? Tyaka my Mom told me na yung pinsan ko pong kumuha ng passport these past few months po ay NSO pinasa instead of PSA, would it be okay po if I do the same thing? Hassle po kasi sa budget ko kung kukuha po ako ng bago. Haha. Salamat po. 🙂
Mommy Levy says
sabi ng iba tinatanggap pa naman daw ang NSO copy, siguro depende sa year.
Angie says
Gud pm po ang id ko lng po tin id and un latest postal id tanggapin po kya un?wla p po kc akong primary ids.tnx po
Mommy Levy says
I think pwede naman.
cecilleo says
Hello ask ko lang po kase nawawala ung passport ko wala kase akong copy at di ko din alam no., makakakuha pa din kaya ako? at ano ano po mga requirements?
Mommy Levy says
for requirements you can check the DFA website.
Jajaleng says
Hi! I have a blurry NSO BC copy(yung first and last name unreadable) and a local original BC (w/c has a clear copy of my full name). Tatanggapin kaya kapag nag apply ako ng passport?
From iloilo po ang birthplace ko paano po pag di tinanggap? Thank you
Mommy Levy says
I’m not from DFA so I can’t confirm if they will accept it or not. Better to bring both documents siguro. Please get back here if ano ang desisyong ng DFA. SAlamat.
Camile honey catul says
Best sa experince poh yan nka angat name ko dun sa middle at last name kaya ask ng dfa un form of 1A birth cert kung saan k pinanganak like me kumuha pku sa zamboanga pero d na nag bibigay ng 1A form kc wala nman daw mali sa name ko pero binigyan lng ko ng old copy ng nso ko oct 9 appointment ko so babalikan ko un dfa f0r explanation ayaw din mg bigay ng letter un civil registral galing pku manila pmunta lng ng legazpi for passport d kna poh alam kung tatangapin nila ito
honey says
okay parin po ba ang School ID kahit na my work kana?
Mommy Levy says
dapat company ID na po, kasi di na valid ang school ID
Divine says
Hi. Do they still accept a birth certificate with an NSO stamp instead of PSA?
Mommy Levy says
some commenters here said yes they do accept NSO copy. But I highly suggest to get a PSA copy if you still have time before your scheduled DFA appearance to avoid the hassle of going back if not.
Ley says
Hi. I was at Dfa Sm manila yesterday and I submitted my PSA BC. I WAS BORN OCT 3,1991 and as we all know medyo madumi naman talaga PSA copy. So my problem is, yung 3 kasi parang may kudlit na manipis na manipis kaya nagmukhang 31, but kung babasahin sa ibaba pumirma yung mom ko Oct 4, so how come sasabihin nilang 31? So sabi nya kelangan daw pumunta sa local registrar at dun malinaw na malinaw naman walang kudlit. Anu kaya pwedeng gawin ma’am?
Mommy Levy says
I know this is frustrating but we need to follow their request and instruction. Just visit the City Hall of Manila and get a local registry copy. Did they ask you to file a supplemental report? or pwede ng dalhin yung local registry copy mismo?
aween says
Good evening po.. ask ko lng po kung halimbawa na ipapaauthenticate kpo ung bcert ng father ko i aaccept po kaya un ng DFA,? Tom ko lng po kc dadalin ung papers nya sa tayabas quezon for late registration, medyo matagal daw po kc bago ako maiissuehan ng PSA birth certificate kaya ipapaauthenticate kna lng sa PSA taz un po ipresent ko sa DFA.. need po kc agad mkuhanan passport tatay ko kaya naghahanap ako mas mabilis na option… salamat po…
Mommy Levy says
I’m sorry but I don’t know if they will accept it po.
Marafe says
mam kailangan ba talaga nso birth certificate at nso marriage certificate? kasi yung nso birth certificate malabo po ano po dapat gagawin?
Mommy Levy says
yes po ayun ang kailangan nila, BTW PSA na po tawag sa NSO copy kasi yun ang mas latest.
Aleah says
This is in line with what Divine asked.. I hope if alam mo Na Ms. Divine if pwede PA yung nso pwede po bang PA inform naman po dito. Thanks po. Worried lang po kasi ako
Robert Soriano says
Good day!
I’m planning po pumunta sa Manila city hall kasi like you po hindi rin tinanggap ng dfa yung nso copy ko kasi name lang ng hospital ang nandun at walang “Manila”. Supplemental form din po kaya kailangan ko? And sa tingin nyo po, ilang months aabutin? Sa pagkakaalam ko kasi name of hospital lang talaga meron at ang kailangan nilam ay at least “manila” daw po. Thank you po sa sagot! God bless
Mommy Levy says
yung sagot po asa article 🙂 1 month po inabot yung akin para maprocess lahat pati pagpunta sa NSO mismo. Salamat.
liana Bonita says
Good evening. I was just wondering if the NSO issued birth certificate is the same as the PSA ones? I have an appointment this November and I’m planning to present my NSO document. Would this be alright? Thank you.
Mommy Levy says
some commenters here said yes they do accept NSO copy. But I highly suggest to get a PSA copy if you still have time before your scheduled DFA appearance to avoid the hassle of going back if not.
Louie says
Magandang araw po,
Naka-scheduled na po ako next week para sa aking passport re-newal., ask ko lng po ang nakalagay kasi sa Birth Certificate ko (NSO Copy) ay ganito:
Last Name: PARC JR
First Name: LOUIE
Middle Name: LIM
at maging sa mga documents(SSS, PHILHEALTH ID, NBI,Police Clearances) ko ay “PARC JR”- ang last name ko.
Pero ang nakalagay naman sa aking TOR, Old School ID at lumang passport ko ay ganito:
Last Name: PARC
First Name: LOUIE JR.
Middle Name: LIM
Hindi po kaya magkaproblema sa aking passport re-newal? Alin po kaya ang tama dito? Yung “JR” na nasa first name na nakalagay or yung “JR” na nasa last name na nakagay?
Anu po kaya ang mas mainam na gawin ko? Kailangan po ba ng affidavit of Correction dito para sundin na lamang ang nasa Birth Certificate ko?
Salamat po.
Mommy Levy says
Nakakuha na kayo ng passport po pala, so I think wala naman na magiging problema since for sure bago kayo nabigyan tinignan naman nila ang birth certificate nyo.
manelyn ferrer says
Hi mam, ask ko lang po kung tatanggapin pa po ba ung appointment ko o need ko po ng bgong appointment sa dfa, nung june 6 po kc schedule ko kulang po ako ng id sss id o voter’s id, balik nlang dw ho ako kapag my id nko isa s mga bngay nla kararating lang po ng umid card ko, ttngapin prin po ba application form ko? O magppa appointment n po aq bago? Thanks po,
Mommy Levy says
better po siguro magpa appointment na lang kayo ng bago kung di naman kayo nagmamadali makakuha ng passport. I’m not from DFA so I’m not sure if they will accept your previous schedule with them. Thanks!
angela says
hi po. pwede po ba ako mag tanong about po sa mali po ang nailagay ko sa place of birth ang appointment ko pa po ay nov. 23 pa pwede ko po kaya mapalitan paano po kaya? thank you.
Mommy Levy says
pwede po siguro don na palitan mismo kasi walang edit document sa DFA website
Maria says
Although Govt issued po ang mga papel natin at walang nakasaad na expiration date, it is really a must to have the latest copy. Because govt systems are being maintained and needs to be upgraded regularly. As such, some of its data may have been altered because of our negligence. Example is, double registration between different municipalities.
angela says
hi baka po pwede makahingi ng help my problem po ako passport application namali po ako ng nailagay sa place of birth ko paano ko po kaya ito mababago first time ko kukuha ng passport. pwede pa po bang mabago ito? thanks
Mommy Levy says
pwede po siguro don na palitan mismo kasi walang edit document sa DFA website
james says
pano kung may one letter error sa surname?
Mommy Levy says
As far as I know you need a correction for that.
Cheryl Aseñero says
Hello, ask ko lng po, is it required talaga na may Form 1A po ng LCR for the first time passport applicant po? Thanks! 🙂
Maria says
As clearly stated on DFA website, you only need to present LCR 1A if there are inputs on your PSA copy that are unreadable or blurred.
Camile honey catul says
Best sa experince poh yan nka angat name ko dun sa middle at last name kaya ask ng dfa un form of 1A birth cert kung saan k pinanganak like me kumuha pku sa zamboanga pero d na nag bibigay ng 1A form kc wala nman daw mali sa name ko pero binigyan lng ko ng old copy ng nso ko oct 9 appointment ko so babalikan ko un dfa f0r explanation ayaw din mg bigay ng letter un civil registral galing pku manila pmunta lng ng legazpi for passport d kna poh alam kung tatangapin nila ito
Jinkee Quinto says
Nagset po ako ng appointment sa dfa for renewal of passport (change status for single to married) pero ang nilagay ko pong surname ko ay ngayong kasal nako. Ok lang po ba un?
Mommy Levy says
yes as long na may hawak ka na pong PSA copy ng marriage certificate
richard says
goodpm po,ang problema ko po kc ay valid id meron naman po akong sss id kaso mali po spelling ng middle initial ko dun.tatanggapin po ba nila ang certificate of discrepancy?slamat po..
Mommy Levy says
bakit po mali? e di ba sa SSS bago magka ID hinihingan din ng NSO copy ng Birth Certificate or other ID’s? Pare pareho bang mali ang middle name nyo? Kuha na lang po kaya kayo ng Postal ID?
Jinkee Quinto says
Ask ko lng po, kumuha po kasi ako last week ng marriage certificate ko sa psa kasi kailangan nila sa lto dahil nagapply ako ng drivers license ko. Un na din po ba ung marriage contract in security paper issued by psa na kailangan para sa change status nung passport ko?
Mommy Levy says
yes isa lang po yun.
Jinkee Quinto says
Thank you mommy levy..
Noel says
Hi mam levy. Kukuha po ako ng passport pero may discrepancy sa name ng father ko sa BC at Mc ko.. may magiging problema po ba? Thank you.
Mommy Levy says
I’m not sure if DFA will look into it pa since I think what’s important is your name and details and not your parents. Please come back here and tell me your experience after going to DFA.
Noel says
Fyi… I was able to get my passport without being asked… the discrepancy doesnt matter to them or they dont even look at it.
DarrylSuxxx says
Hello Noel, which DFA branch did you apply? Thanks
meriamfe says
Hello Mommy. I have the same problem with your Ren ,my birthplace address is missing,name lang ng hospital ang nakasulat. so yung remarks sa DFA application ko po ai “to submmit annotated PSO copy regarding birthplace.” I already filed supplemental blah blah in our municipality. they’ve told me to wait 3 mos. eh baka matagalan pa daw kung hndi ko i fo follow up sa NSO manila mismo .From Baguio pa naman ako .Is there a faster way for me to get my passport. Can I apply it while waiting for the updated Birth cert.? I must have one now, I’m applying for a cruise ship and I’m supposed to be on board by this September. Dahil sa ka artehan ng DFA, wala na.Pabalik na yung barko, andito pa rin ako =( thank you.
Mommy Levy says
awwww 🙁 ang tagal ng process. Wala ako alam na faster way to do it. Sorry pero wala ako alam na pwde itulong para mapadali.
Mhaj says
Hello Mommy Levy. Ask ko lang po. Kapag po ba change status po. Single to Married and renewal ng passport. Matagal po ba un marelease? Thankyou po.
Mommy Levy says
as long na yung marriage certificate mo is ready na at PSA copy na I think same release lang as any ordinary passport.
irene says
Hello did they ask you for the 2 supporting documents? Thank you!
Mommy Levy says
Birth Certificate and Marriage Certificate na PSA copy and 1 valid ID (SSS for me) lang po as far as I can remember
Leslie Ann says
Hi Ms. Levy MagkakaProblema ba if ang Nasa NSO ang Place of Birth ay Angeles City kaso ang nasa Birth Certificate ko na galing City Civil Registry ay Chinese General Hospital ang place of birth ko. Need pa ba ng Supplemental nun? Thanks!
Mommy Levy says
I think just give them the NSO copy, di naman siguro hahanapin yung sa Civil Registrar. Pero ano ba ang tama?
Leslie Ann says
malabo kasi ang name ko sa NSO copy masyadong dikit dikit ang letra. 🙁 ang Tama si Chinese Hospital.
Aileen says
Good Afternoon, Ms. Levy. Yung sa BC ko po kasi maiden name ng mother ko is ” Torre”which is “Torres” po dapat. Torres naman po nakalagay sakin, tatanggapin po kaya iyon? Thank you po
Mommy Levy says
I think you need a supplemental report for that especially if gamit mo is Torres na middle name.
jhonahmel apple langcauon says
tanong ko lang po .. PSA po kasi nakalagay sa requirements for passport. NSO pa po yung stamp nung sa birth cert. ko.. kailangan ko bang kumuha ng bago para PSA na stamp?
Mommy Levy says
sabi ng iba dito, tinatanggap pa daw NSO copy. But if you still have time, better to get a new copy kesa naman pabalikin ka pa kung di nila iaaccept
Julieta says
Innaccept ba sayo yung nso pa ang stamp?
Jasmine Hart says
Hi I went to DFA for my babygirl, and it was registered late but I have gotten the true copy from Local Registrar, and when I went to DFA they told me I had to go to NSO to get it certified true copy “stamp” what and how much does that cost ? The hospital messed up registering her and it was late and was not registered till JUNE and she was born JAN, what do I need to ask for NSO to get my babys passport because we have to travel OCT
Mommy Levy says
You need to wait for the NSO/PSA copy. That document is just what DFA needs, nothing else as far as I know.
Joana Villarin says
Hi Ms. Jasmine, you can go to PSA main office at sta.mesa and have it stamped as certified true copy for 140.00 pesos. That will suffice the requirements eve if the NSO copy is not yet available.
Maricel says
Hi miss Jasmine, halos prehas lng tau ng situ…balak ko din kunan passport baby ko which is just 3 mons old only at wala pa syang PSA birth cert at balak na din nmin magtravel by Oct…
Ask ko lng kung nakakuha ka na ba ng passport ng baby mo? Anong mga requirements ang kailangan pra magpa authenticate ng bc sa PSA? Makukuha din ba agad agad ung papel? Thank u sa sagot po
michelle says
hi po ..ask ko lang po kasi nagkaroon ng problema ang birth certificate ko sa place of birth ,same sila sa local at PSA ..instead of manila ,nakalagay po metro manila sa municipality .. ang hinihingi po kasi sa dfa ay suplemental rep. which is almost 600 pero nung nagpunta ako sa city hall sabi for correction daw siya that costs 1600 ..ano po ba talaga sa dalawa
Mommy Levy says
I think correction po kasi pareho ang local at PSA. Yung sa’min kasi tama ang local mali sa PSA.
Mars says
Hi Mommy Levy. Regarding my mother’s birth certificate na unreadable, may maishashare po ba kaung idea on how to fix it? Indicated po kasi sa requirements na required ang transcribed bc. Thanks po!
Mommy Levy says
Sorry po di ko alam ano gagawin sa ganyan. Patanong na lang po sa munisipyo nyo.
Adora says
Hello Ms Levy.
Is it ok to submit an afdidavit of discrepancy if there is a missing letter in the first name on the Birth certificate instead of getting a supplemental report?
Thanks
Mommy Levy says
I don’t know if they will accept an affidavit only.
DarrylSuxxx says
Hello, I did a little research and I have found out that gov’t Agencies no longer accept Affidavits, they will follow the BC.
Two_Angel says
Hello Mommy Levy. Ask ko lang po sa BC ko ang place of birth ko is Chinese general hospital and medical center, blumentritt sta cruz, Manila. Then sa MC ko ang place of birth ko is Manila Philippines. Ok lang po ba un?
Mommy Levy says
I think mas importante naman ang BC. The MC is to check your married name ata (not sure ha).
rachael says
hi, magaapply po ng passport ung kuya ko.. kya lng may error sa last name nya.. pde po b n affidavit jan???? d p po kc naicocorrect..
Mommy Levy says
I don’t know what’s the difference of affidavit and supplemental report. Perhaps you can ask your local civil registrar on how to fix it?
ren says
hello po good evening mommy levs ask ko lang po ilang xerox copies ng mga document ang need ipasa.?
Mommy Levy says
original copy po ang kailangan nila
Richard says
Very Helpful ^_^
Pink says
Hi mommy levy, un mother ko wrong spelling ung first name nya sa MC (‘n’ nkalagay instead na ‘m’) based s record ng local registry. Bago po sana sya bumalik sa DFA, naisip namin itry yung affidavit. tatanggapin kaya ung affidavit lang? or need tlga nung correction? gaano po kaya katagal ung process? Thank you 🙂
Mommy Levy says
as far as I know, need talaga correction. Hindi ko alam pinagkaiba ng affidavit sa supplemental report. Yung supplemental report inabot ako 1 month para matapos at maayos.
Patricia Pegenia says
Hi! It’s my first time applying for a passport. I just graduated recently and I don’t have any ID’s aside from my school ID. Will they still accept my application? Btw, my NSO was forwarded by the travel agency 3 weeks prior to my appointment. Thanks in advance!
Mommy Levy says
I think yes they’ll accept your ID
Gray says
Good afternoon.. ask ko Lang po
2015 pa po Ang psa ko tatanggapin po ba sya? At ung secpa ko po ay 2014 sa august1 na po Ang appointment ko thanks po.
Mommy Levy says
I think yes tatanggapin naman siguro sya.
dervin says
Good eve tanung lng po mali po kasi ung spelling ng mother ko isang letter lng nmn po tatangapin po b yon s dfa kahit hindi cu n ipaayos s NSO.. Then kung ipapaaus ko po anu pu kelangan cu mga documents s san po.. Salamat po
Mommy Levy says
sino po ba mag aapply? ikaw o sya? kung ikaw, I think di na kailangan, kung sya ayun ang dapat ayusin.
Mary ann says
Hi Sis,
what do you mean po by marriage contract issued by the Local Civil Registrar and duly authenticated by NSO? ito po ba yung galing LCR? inaaccept na po ba nila ito? Newly wed lang po kasi then need ko na po irenew my passport and change my civil status. I wonder if inaaccept nila ung marriage contract from LCR lang. Thank you.
Mommy Levy says
I am not sure, pero sa site nila nakalagay naman sa site nila na Marriage Contract (MC) in Security Paper (SECPA) issued by the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) or Certified True Copy (CTC) of MC issued by the Local Civil Registrar (LCR) and duly authenticated by PSA.

Joy says
Hi po. Tinatanggap po ba nila yung copy ng BC from local registry? kasi wala po akong NSO or PSA. sa CityHall po ba ng Manila pwede na kumuha ng PSA? Never po ako nakakuha ng NSO or PSA eh. Lagi lng pong Certified Machine copy yung bnbgay sakin. Yung parang photocopy lng ng BC tpos may seal/tatak na violet. Tntnggap po ba yun?
Mommy Levy says
I am not sure. You can get your NSO/PSA copy at any SM Bills Payment outlets. Just wait for 1-2 weeks
vince says
good afternoon mo maam . ask ko lang po kung paano icorrect yung mali mali ang spelling sa NSO birth certificate .. kumuha po kase ako ng BC ng mama ko sa NSO which is blurred po yung binigay nila saken and then mali din po yung spelling ng maiden name ng mama nya. 1952 sya pinanganak yung mama ko . paano mo ipapacorrect yun ? then ano po yung electronic endorsement letter na i attach sa marriage contract?? salamat po ! sana po masagutan po nyo?
Mommy Levy says
I think pwede dito ang supplemental report. Just visit the town kung san pinanganak mama mo then ask for a supplemental form and complete the requirements and just follow the procedure.
Lloyd Flores says
If only there is a pre-evaluation process where we can just take a picture of our documents, send it to them via email (or perhaps an additional step on their online application) for pre-evaluation. When approved, that will just be the only time that we go and bring the original hard copies of the requirements. Imagine if this has been implemented in any government agency, perhaps we can even lessen the traffic. Don’t you think?
Mommy Levy says
yes I agree. This is a nice suggestion. Sana mabasa nila.

Mommy Levy says
walang option mag correct sa site, maybe you can make another appointment na lang to correct it.
Vanesa says
Qng dadalhnq pu ba ung certuficate of petition sa dfa makakapagpapassport kay aq maam pati ung babyq
Tnx pu
Madz says
I have the same issue. Place of birth written in my bc is the name of the hospital and dfa asked me to file a supplemental report for it to be changed to or to add “Manila”. You said it only took you a month to process pero saken 3months daw. Hays…
Mommy Levy says
bakit ang tagal? kumuha ka ba ng taga process?
Pamela says

Leds says

Mommy Levy says
you can try but I am not sure if they will accept it.
Jhen says
Hi. Sa NSO/PSA copy ko po ay mali ang isang letter ng maiden surname ng mother ko. Yung tamang spelling po ang gamit ko mula bata pati na sa ibang documents ko like sa marriage certificate ko at sa BC ng anak ko atbp. May appointment na po ako sa DFA ngayong July. Ok na po kaya yun kung may mga supporting old documents naman ako o kailangan munang ipa correct?
Mommy Levy says
can’t answer your questions, please return here kung ano po mangyayari.
LuisitoM.Ola041193@gmail.com says
Mam ok lang po ba kung walang middle name both my parents sa NSO kailangan ko po bayun ayusin or ok lang po kasi kukuha ako ng pasport po pa korea
Mommy Levy says
Hi Luisito, I don’t know, perhaps you can visit any DFA branch near you and ask para sure pag punta mo. Thanks!
aMae says

ramdy says

Mommy Levy says

Kristine Joy says
Hi maam, Aug.3 po yung appointment ko sa DFA, kakakuha ko lang po ng PSA pero wrong spelling naman yung name ko. may NSO ako wc is tama naman yung spelling ng name ko. pero 2007 ko pa po nakuha .. pwede ko ba gamitin yung NSO ko nalang?
Mommy Levy says
bat ganun? it sounds weird kasi same dapat ang NSO at PSA copy. I’m not sure if tatanggapin nila ang NSO mo kasi 10 years ago na. Try nyo na lang po.
Alyza Aim Gaspar says
Hi Mommy. Ask ko lang po kasi mali ang nailagay po sa application form ng birthplace then tama po lahat yung sa mga documents? paano po macocorrect yung sa application form?thankyou
Mommy Levy says
I’m not sure if you can change it sa DFA na mismo. Wala kasing option na baguhin sa site.
Alyza Aim Gaspar says
sa mismong appearance nalang po ayusin? thankyou
Mommy Levy says
di ko alam if pwede baguhin don mismo. Pakiusapan nyo na lang po siguro.
Richelle Daguio says
Hello! Same case here. Tanong ko lang po kung ano nangyari sa appointment nyo regarding of mali ung birthplace na nalagay nyo? Thank you po sa sagot
gellie says
hi sainyo, tnong ko lng kung din f anong nanGyari sa appointment nyoe, about sa naG kmali ng birth place don sa Appointment form?
Thank u..
Hansie says
ma’am, sa pag-supplement report ng BC, yung dadalhin ko pong docs sa civil registry are my Baptismal and my parents’ marriage contract. Yung marriage contract na dala ko po is hindi updated pero issued in manila, like certified true copy naman, tatanggapin ba ng civil registry yun? Thanks po
Mommy Levy says
bakit po Baptismal? di po ba dapat local registry ng birth certificate. I don’t think kailangan ang marriage certificate ng parents nyo since ang iku correct naman ay Birth Certificate. Thanks!
Hansie says
Hi ma’am! wala pong Manila, Philippines yung BC ko, sabi ng mga friends ko, kailangan pa daw ipa-supplemental yung BC ko sa Civil Registry. Mabilis lang po ba iyon, basta complete ang requirements? Thank you po!
Mommy Levy says
usually asa 1 buwan po ang processing depende sa location nyo at sa tagal or bilis ng munisipyo nyo mag process.
aMae says
hello po. now ko lng po tu nabasa tapos nung nicheck ko yung BC ko, napansin ko po na walang Middle Initial yung Maiden Name ng mother ko. need ko po bang ifile ng supplemental report yun o tatanggapin po kaya ng dfa? 😞
Mommy Levy says
I’m not sure about that po.
Pat says
hi po, wala pong “quezon city” sa birth certificate ko, di po ako makaapply ng passport because of that, based po sa post nyo, kailangan ko ng supplemental, tama po ba?
Mommy Levy says
nagpunta na kayo sa DFA? yes I think dapat may supplemental report for this.
Em says
Hello po same problem po blank bplace nakuha ko na po ung supplemental sa Munisipyo ayun na po ba ung hinahanap doon sa Dfa? Baka mamaya po kasi may sabihin nanaman silang iba ang sinabi sakin kumuha sa munisipyo. Thanks po
Mommy Levy says
yung supplemental report ay kailangan nyo ipasa sa NSO mismo para maayos nila yung NSO/PSA copy nyo.
Em says
ibig sabihin po hindi padin yun ang ipapasa sa DFA na supplemental report?
Mommy Levy says
yung NSO copy na corrected ang ipapasa sa DFA, hindi ang mismong supplemental na galing sa munisipyo.
Neneth says
Good Day Ma’am Levy,
Ask ko lang po if may idea po kaya kung saan ba pwede mag renew ng passport around Manila na hindi na kailangan mag appointment online kasi po need ko makapag renew ngayon September kaya lang wala nang slot. Salamat po!
Mommy Levy says
wala po akong idea saan meron
Marth says
Hi, ask ko lang kasi 2015 pa yung psa birthcertificate ko. Ask ko lang if need ko pa kumuha ng bago or pwede na to na dalhin, sa july 12 na kasi appointment namin thankyou
Mommy Levy says
sabi ng iba tinatanggap pa naman daw yung ganyang date.
Michelle says
Hi ma’am!
Just wondering p kung this July ang appointment namin tapos yung nso birth certificate ko na naorder is nung Febreuary of this year tatanggapin ba siya as latest copy? Thank you!
Mommy Levy says
tatanggapin po yan
Cent says
Hi,
Just wondering, viable ba ung NSO last year to get a passport now? or hanggang ngaun e need pa din ng DFA ang latest copy
Mommy Levy says
sabi ng ibang readers pwede pa daw yan
Shiela says
Hello mam Levy,
Tatanggapin ba ng DFA ang certifcate of petition as asn attachment na pinapa spell out nila yung middle name ko?
Mommy Levy says
I have no idea po. Sorry!
Diana Grace Ang says
Gaano po katagal bago makuha ung corrected birth certificate? My case po kasi is hindi tinanggap ng DFA when I am applying for passport because my place of birth on my nso is written as A.C. (for Angeles City). So they have suggest na bumalik ako sa Pampanga, for it to be corrected. Is the supplementary po ba applicable for my case? Thank you! 🙂
Diana Grace Ang says
*supplemental
Mommy Levy says
I think yes. Mga 1 month yung process nung akin, not sure po dyan sa inyo kung ganon katagal
Zarah says
Ano po ba yung Form 1A BirthCertificate? Wala po ako nun. Ang meron ako e Form 102. Ano po pagkakaiba ng dalawa at san po ba nakukuha yun?
Mommy Levy says
sorry I have no idea on any of those forms
Rodilyn says
Hello ma’am
Ask ko lang po sana kung makakakuha po ba ako ng passport kahit wlang baptismal,? Late register po aq …
May mga supporting documents naman po aq
Thanks po s reply
Mommy Levy says
birth certificate naman po ang importante
Ann says
Hi Mommy. Ask lang po if ano valid ID”s madaling kunin kasi 18 po ako then ang appointment ko is on September 26. Nakaorder na po ako ng BC na PSA . tapos may 2 supporting documents na po ako .NBI tsaka barangay Clearance based po sa LIST OF ACCEP. ID’s.
My problem is 1 valid ID po ang need which is wala pa ko. Can you suggest any valid ID’s na madali lang kunin? TIN ID po ba is ok tsaka under sa Valid ID’s?
Thank You po!
Mommy Levy says
Postal ID
Iris Buenaventura says
Hi mommy ask ko lang kung kailangan talaga ng marriage cert pag inapply ko ung baby ko ng passport nya, naka book na kame ng July 08. Ang problema po kasi is ung name ng daddy nya sa MC mali ung format. It should be Ching-Wei Yi po pero don sa MC Yi Ching Wei. Kung need po talaga ng MC tanggapin kaya nila ito kahit na ang last name ng baby ko is Yi na correct naman po don sa birth cert nya. Thanks
Mommy Levy says
yes need po ng marriage certificate for minor applicant as far as I know. I’m not sure kung hihingan kayo supplementary for that pero sana nga wag na. Please update us kung ano mangyari. Thanks!
Maria Lourdes Benjamin says
Mam Levy sa Birth cert ko Morris sa Marriage certificate ko Mores pero gagamitin ko kasi married name ko pumunta po ako kanina sa DFA SM Manila sabe po importante nakalagay na correct last name ng hubby ko sa MC, pmunta ako after nun sa ASEANA location depende daw sa processor Jul11 napo kasi sched ko salamat po wait ko response nyo last name ko Benjamin Married name Macatangay

Rain Co says
And Mali po kasi signature ko sa Postal Id ko, Ano po dapat kong gawin? I will wait to Your response. Thankyou po
Mommy Levy says
ang suggestion ko po ay kumuha ulit ng bagong postal ID, alam ko mahal, kaso wala po ako maisip na ibang solusyon.
Rain Co says
Hi. Ask ko lang po, Paano mo gagawin ko kasi hindi ako naka attend sa schedule na binigay sa dfa. kasi need ko daw isa pang i.d at Vrr, Pano po yun?
Mommy Levy says
pa schedule na lang po kayo ulit
Jesi says
Hi, just wanna ask if sa tingin niyo okay lang abbreviated yung province or city sa place of birth na nakalagay sa birth certificate. Kasi nakalagay sa akin, MKNA, M.M which is Marikina City. Magkaka-problem kaya ako sa application ko because of this?
Mommy Levy says
ang tamad naman ng nag type nyan. Sana okay lang sa DFA.
Jesi says
Madam, last question. 🙂
Pwede na rin bang gawin dito yung kumuha ng supplemental report just to be sure? Thank you.
Mommy Levy says
Para sure, visit the DFA branch near your area and inquire. Pakita nyo po yung BC nyo.
Dhen says
MaaM levy nawawala poh kaz UnG bC ko.. UnG photocopy Lang nak wan sa akIn makakakuha pa poh ba aq ng Passport ei July 1 na poh UnG appointment ko sa Dfa bukas na poh
Mommy Levy says
hindi po nila tatanggapin ang photocopy. Please get back and tell us kung ano nangyari
Joseph Sanico says
Thanks po sa reply mam, last question lang po,
yung name ng father ko sa application form ko at sa birth certificate ko ay hindi magka pareho parang na typo ko lang, tatangapin pa ba nila yun sa DFA?
Mommy Levy says
ipa correct nyo na lang yung asa application nyo po. Paki update po kami kung pwede ganun. Salamat
Joseph Sanico says
Follow up question lang po dun sa requirements,
kailangan ba talaga 2 valid ids? kasi isa lng po yung valid id ko. voters id lang po meron ko.. pero may apat akong valid documents.
Mommy Levy says
if hindi po nakalagay na 2 valid IDs then I think pwede na, pero kung ako to make sure kukuha ako ng Postal ID
Joseph Sanico says
Good Evening Ms. Levy,
I just want to ask if nag accept pa ba yung DFA ng NSO birth certificate, kasi PSA na cla ngayon at 2013 ko pah to kinuha yung birth certifcate ko. Salamat sa reply
Mommy Levy says
sabi ng iba tinatanggap pa daw, pero if you still have time better to get the new one para iwas sa pagbalik.
Ciela Marie Olazo says
Goodevening po ask ko lang po kung natanggap pa po ng NSO BC sa DFA Sm Manila schedule ko po kase bukas ngayon ko lang po napansin na PSA po ang kailangan salamat po
Mommy Levy says
I don’t know po but I hope they will.
Frg says
Hi tinanggap ba nila ung nso bc/marriage cert mo?thanks
Mommy Levy says
hindi po kasi luma na daw, pero yung iba naman na nag co comment dito tinanggap naman daw yung kanila. I think depende sa anong year kinuha.
Jeffrey Belen says
Hi Ma’am Levy,
Nung nag inquire po kami sa City hall, ang sinasabi nila Correction na daw po ung place of birth, hindi supplementary,
Preho po tayo ng situation regarding sa place of birth, may i know po ba panu nyo sinabi sa kanila na supplementary ung kailangan..
Salamat in advance!
Mommy Levy says
Hi Jeffrey, sa’kin kasi walang nakalagay sa Place of Birth ng anak ko sa NSO copy pero sa local registrar office meron. ANg gusto lang nila mag appear yung place of birth mismo sa NSO copy. If correction hinihingi sayo baka iba ang address na nakalagay?
Kim says
Hello po. Ask ko lang po kung may binigay na date sainyo nung bumalik po kayo ny pangalawang beses sa DFA? Kasi po pinapabalik ako kulang daw po ako ng Id. Wala naman pong sinabi na date, sinabi lang po na bumalik akong DFA pag may Id na po ako. Thank you po!
Mommy Levy says
wala po binigay na date since depende sa tagal ng pagkuha namin ng supplemental ang balik namin. Ask them po if need nyo ba ulit magpa schedule o diretso na kayo sa kanila.
jan marizz says
same concern po sakin. nakailang balik na ako for correction process. bukod sa mas mahal ang babayaran eh ang tagal ng turn around time nila (4mos.) up to now nde ko pa nafifile kase they always ask for a new paper to submit para iconsider nila ung case 🙁 (nakalagay lang kase sa place of birth is ung name ng hospital) 🙁 mas mabilis yata pag supllemental and mas mura how to insist na ganun ang gagawen?
Mommy Levy says
sino nag suggest na hindi supplemental ang gawin nyo? Bakit daw?
DarrylSuxxx says
Hello, I believe supplemental only applies to missing information sa PSA copy ng BC mo. If meron naman nakalagay pero kulang or mali, they will require correction.
Flor says
Hi Mommy Levy,
Kailangan po ba talaga ang marriage cert.is un galing sa NSO? Kasi po bago palng ksal matagal pa po ang release nun copy sa nso..D po ba pwede un galing samunisipyo lang pero original namn?
Mommy Levy says
I’m not sure po kung pwede, kindly ask DFA na lang po.
Paula says
Kuha nalang po ng certified true copy sa pinagkasalan nyo. Pwede po yun if wala pang PSA MC
Joji says
Hi po, ask lang po my issue po ba sa pagkuha ng passport kung ang name ni mudra sa bc eh “s” ang nakalagay pero sa marriage cert at id eh “z” gamit nya?
Mommy Levy says
sino po ang mag aaply sya o kayo? If sya, yes may issue po yun.
Joji says
Hi galing kami dfa pampanga my dala na kami affidavit of discrepancy para sa name ni mother. Tinanggap naman ng dfa. And need nga 2 id though isa lan nadala ni mudra eh punagbigyan n cya. Hindi na din allowed na makakuha ka din ng passport kahit senior kasama mo. So i had no choice kundi i renew na yung s anak ko na 2 years ago p lang passport kesa byahe kami ulit. Pag anak allowed both parents pag kasal. Pag daw nde eh nanay lang. Pag renew pala ang need na lang eh photocopy ng mga id at old passport. Change Surname ako kaya need ng marriage cert. sulit ang luwas dahil nakakuha kami 3 naman. Share lang po. 🙂
Mommy Levy says
thank you for the update
SG says
Hello po. Bukas na po yung schedule ng mama ko sa dfa. Pero ngayon lang po napansin na may not readable sa bc niya. May nakalkal po kaming lcr form 1a niya pero issued po siya nung 1997 pa. Valid po kaya yon? Hindi na po kasi namin maprocess ngayon. And kung hindi po tatanggapin yon, pwede po kaya na ang isubmit na lang ay yung original bc niya? As in yung green po na bc. 😣
Mommy Levy says
hindi po nila tatanggapin ang original bc na green, NSO copy lang tinatanggap nila. Try nyo po muna since bukas na din naman yun schedule.
mavel says
hi sir/ms SG. tanong ko lang po, tinanggap po ba nila as support docs yung lcr nang mama mo po kahit 1997 pa issued? thanks
beth says
hello. tanong ko lang po. valid pa po ba ang nso birth cert ko if aug 2015 pa ang date nun? thank you.
Mommy Levy says
I think yes!
Medy says
Hi mam, gud evening po! Ask ko lang po regarding sa nso birth certificate.. Ung surname po kc dapat Arcilla ngaun sa nso/psa naging Arcillas.. Pde kaya pa correct un sa dfa mismo.. Un lang naman ang mali the rest tama naman.. Docs, id’s..
Thankyou!
Mommy Levy says
nagkamali lang sa pag input sa DFA or mali talaga ang nasa NSO? ano ang gamit nyo sa ID?
Medy says
Mali po ung nasa NSO. Pero sa mga id’s naman po tama..
Salamat 🙂
Mommy Levy says
Hi Medy, it’s either susundin mo yung asa NSO o magpapalit ka lahat ng IDs… or magpapa supplemental report ka to correct what’s indicated in your NSO birth certificate.
Medy says
Hi mommy levy.. Thank you po 🙂
Maria Lourdes Benjamin says
mam matagal po ba mag pa supplemental report?
Mommy Levy says
as I have mentioned po, it took us a month po.
Liezel says
Hi mommy ask q lng po qng pwd ung father q nlng ang mgpa authenticate ng marrige certificate nmin.. nsa abroad po kz kmeng magaswa.. thank you
Mommy Levy says
I think pwede naman, siguro magpadala ka na lang ng picture ng authorization letter with signature tapos ipa print ng tatay mo para pag hinanap may mapakita sya.
Ireen Dimaano says
Ma’am, ask ko lang, nagpaappointment po ba kayo pagpunta nyo sa dfa? Or dun na kayo sa courtesy lane pumila? Ikukuha ko kasi ng passport ung 2 kong anak, 3 and 7 yrs old, so pede sila sa courtesy lane, balak ko kasi isabay na din ung renewal ng passport namin mag-asawa, do you think pede na din kami sa courtesy lane kasabay ng 2 naming anak?
Mommy Levy says
yes nagpa appointment po kami. Nung may nakitang error tapos bumalik kami ayun ang wala ng appointment (since may PWD ID din ang anak ko). Hindi ko po alam if pwede na kayo sa courtesy lane, sorry wala po akong idea.
Melissa Austria says
Hello, tanong ko lang po, how many weeks did it take to get the supplemental report and birthcert from NSO in Sta. Mesa. Thank you sooo much in advance for answering. 😊
Mommy Levy says
approximately 4 weeks po.
Jm says
Hi po. Okay po ba sa DFA Alabang? mababait po ba yung mga staff?
Mommy Levy says
yes mababait po staff don.
Cathy says
Hi ask ko lng kung pede pa yung nso ko pero 2015 ko lng siya kinuha. Kasi d b PSA n ngayon ung nso?
Mommy Levy says
sabi ng ibang nag comment dito tinatanggap pa naman daw po
Richard says
Hi,
June 2 na schedule ko for passport renewal, today ko lng nag print ng form, ung concern ko is ngaun ko lang napansin na mali pala nailagay ko dun sa Place of Birth ko. Okay lang ba in if pabago ko upon finalizing my passport renewal?
Mali lang ung na input ko na place dun sa renewal application ko.
Mommy Levy says
I think pwede naman siguro ipabago sa kanila
Ryel Sanao says
Good eve po! Naka-sched po kasi ang passport appointment ko this Saturday sa DFA-Alimall. Suddenly, as I browsed through my necessary requirements (just to prepare it for Sat), I found out that my NSO BC is not the updated one. Then I realized po na last 2007 pa po ako kumuha ng copy ng BC sa NSO. Ask ko lang po if do I really need to get a latest copy of my BC? Kasi I suppose na readable pa naman at mukhang bago yung copy ko ng BC. I do not have time na po kasi to get another copy due to my hectic sched, i.e. may pasok po ako during office hours everyday. So I’m contemplating on the validity of my BC. Thanks for immediate response in advance and God bless!
Mommy Levy says
try it po, sabi ng iba tinatanggap naman daw yung sa kanila na NSO copy pa
Ronald says
Again, unexpected issue. DFA SM Manila, they did not accept my NSO Birth certificate because the year of birth was not readable. They need a supplemental report from the city of birth’s civil registry office as proof of the date of birth. Is this our fault if NSO does not give a clear copy of the birth certificate, OR if theres a part of it that is not clear right there and then thay advise us to acquire a certificate from the civil registrar since the birth certificate will not serve its purpose having the said unreadable info. S@#€!
Mommy Levy says
I agree, this is just unfair because in the first place it’s not our fault. This correction takes time, energy and money. Hindi biro.
Queenie Gay says
Same as mine. Year ng date of birth din blurry ko.D po kasi tinanggap yung ctc ko sa dfa my psa akung dala ,ctc and form 1a ng birth certificate ko pero d prin tinanggap kasi dw wla stamp ng nso yung ctc ko. Pwde kaya kahit san psa aku mg pa stamp ng ctc and form 1a ko?
Mommy Levy says
I don’t know po, perhaps just visit NSO and inquire there. thanks!
gem says
Hi po. Okay lang po bang may maling info dun sa application form? Yung contact number po kasi dun sa person to contact in case of emergency, tama naman po nung ininput ko pero kulang na yun digits nung naprint na. Big deal po ba yun? Or pwede naman dun na ayusin sa day ng appointment ko? Thanks po.
Mommy Levy says
I think pwede naman doon ayusin.
hanalea13 says
Hi po, nagkaissue din ako sa birth certificate ko due to place of birth, instead of Quezon city and nakalagay po eh NLIC (Novalichez Lying In Center) so I need supplementary report achuchu din na nakakahaggard plus need ko pa ng TOR (March 17 ung sched ko) then kakakuha ko lang ng TOR yesterday and ung birth cert ko eh kukunin ko pa lang bukas busy kasi eh pero nagwoworry ako na baka need ko ulet magpa appointment kasi it’s been 2 months na? I heard some people na need bumalik within 30 days daw, kayo po ba nakabalik kayo within 30 days? I need your help po, plan ko kasi bumalik next week… Thank u in advance!
Mommy Levy says
hindi kami nagpa appointment na kasi may PWD ID ang anak ko. May special lane na sila kahit wala ng appointment.
May says
hi hanalea, i have the same problem with yours. hospital name lang nakalagay sa birth cert ko, wala ring nakalagay na place (QC).
to answer your question, per dfa officer..1mon lang validity ng appointment so need mo na ulit magset ng panibago
Hanalea13 says
Hala piano to June 21 may ticket na qo to Hong Kong.. May appointment naman na ulet aqo kaso June 16 pa in which is 5 calendar days prior to our supposed departure and I heard na it will take within 7 working days para magawa ung passport. Juice colored ano po kayang pwede Kong gawin?
Thanks po pala sa mga reply..
Mommy Levy says
sana pwede ipa rush.
Hanalea13 says
Hi magbibigay lang po aqo ng update. I went to DFA Alimall last 29 of May and I was declined nga kasi my appointment is already expired, totoo nga na 30 days lang ung validity ng appointment but the good thing is, may appointment ako na bago and that was yesterday. Every thing went smooth naman and I was able to use my old college ID (since I don’t have any other valid IDs) to think na it was given to me 10 years ago (malaki na kasi nabago sa ichura ko). The good DFA guy (bless his heart) only asked me for TOR, good moral character, birth certificate with supplemental report, NBI, police clearance, photocopies of my other IDs such as Solo Parent, Postal (not digitized), PhilHealth and company ID and viola! It only took me 45 mind to pay for it and have my picture taken. I’ll be getting my passport on June 27 at the very long last! I was able to move my HK trip on the first week of July kaya wala na qong problems, phew! Thanks po sa pagtulong!
Mommy Levy says
thanks for the update and sharing your experience.
Pia Salaria says
Hello.
I have a question, Would my parent’s date of marriage in the certificate, which is different in my NSO affect in getting our passport? Thank you. 🙂
Mommy Levy says
I don’t think it will affect.
Jackie Tana says
Hi Mommy Levy!
Schedule kmi tom sa DFA Alabang. May BC is still NSO Copy. but my Merriage Cert. is PSA na. tatanggapin po ba ung BC ko. nag apply na ako ng PSA copy but still wala parin po. need to clear my mind lng. at stress ako sa NSO na yan. hehehe.
Thx!
Mommy Levy says
some commenters here said na tinanggap pa din naman daw yung NSO copy nila
SharmNakahara says
Hi po. My problem naman po is ung birth cert ko malabo. Yung surname na ginagamit ko is for example “Dela Cruz” but sa birth cert ko daw magkadiki sya “DelaCruz”, pero sa lahat ng IDs ko and records po “Dela Cruz” ang gamit ko, paano po kaya yun? Pwede po kayang sundan na lang yung IDs ko and ung gamit ko bgayon or need talaga nila yung birth cert ang sundin? Please reply po thanks!
Mommy Levy says
As far as I know they will follow what’s on your birth certificate. If malayo pa ang sched mo sa DFA, better to visit them and ask if your BC is okay or not so that you can get a supplemental report as soon as possible.
mimi says
Hi po! Tinatanggap pa po ba yung NSO Birth Certificate and Marriage Certificate? Thank you po.
Mommy Levy says
some commenters here said yes tinatanggap pa
regie says
Hi ,maam!
Mali po ung spelling ng Province address ko sa NSO..
Ok lang po ba na magdala ako ng affidavit of descrepancy para sa NSO ko?
mga ilang month po ba proseso ng maling spelling ng province ko?
Tnx po ,maam!.
Mommy Levy says
if hindi nila iaaccept yung wrong spelling, mga 1 month po ang pagpapaayos ng supplemental depende sa area siguro
eve says
Pumunta ako last week sa dfa kaya lang d ako nkakuha dhil yunh birthplace ko is TONDO MEDICAL CENTER sbi n dfa dpat daw ay nkalagay na manila city ok lng ba babalik ulet ako tas papakita ko ung certfate ng hospital..baptismal ko..communion crtfcte pati form-137 ko pang supportong documnts?pa help nman…
Mommy Levy says
I think what DFA means is you get a supplemental report. They will not accept hospital certificate even Baptismal, Communion and Form137 documents as far as I know.
LA says
Hi! After submission of Supplemental Report to main office, how many days was the fixed birth certificate released? Thanks!
Mommy Levy says
do you mean, after submission to NSO? usually 1-2 weeks lang okay na.
Maria Luisa Montoya says
good day maam,,balak ko pong kumuha ng passport,ang problema ko ay ang date of birth na nasa birth certificate ko.since birth ay Dec.14,1964 na ang ginagamit ko until i got married at lahat ng ID’s and documents ay Dec.14,1964 ang nkalagay pero nung kumuha ako ng NSO birt certificate ay FEB.24,1964 ang nakalagay sa date of birth ko.ano po ang pwde kung gawin para maayos ito..any advice will help me a lot,,thanks
Mommy Levy says
I have no idea po how to correct this. Hindi ko alam if sapat na ang supplemental report or need pa ng Atty to fix that error. Please inquire sa City Hall po. Thank you!
MadonnaCastillo says
Gud pm poh mam mag rerenew po ako ng passport at my appointment nrin ako sa july change status nrin kso ung birth place ko sa marriage certifiacate ay mali imbis na victoria laguna
Pila laguna ang nkalaga kumuha ako ng joint affidavit para kung makita nila na mali ang birthplace ko sa marriage certificate ko makikita nila na nka indicate ang joint affidavit tanggapin poh kaya nila un
Thanks poh
Mommy Levy says
I have no idea if magiging ganun sila kahigpit sa Marriage certificate katulad ng birth certificate. If makakapunta ka sa DFA before ang schedule mo better para matanong mo na.
Bim says
Hi. Ang pagkakaalam kohalos pareho lang ang process if may mali s spelling ng name mo,punta ka s inyong local civil registrar for correction ng birth date mo. Once you are there, ask mo p rin kung ano dapat mo gawin para sure. I went to a whole lot of producing all neccessary documents para lang ung nakalihan kong nameang magamit ko kc from elementary hanggang s nagwowork aq un ginagamit q n spelling until I applied formy passport n maraming maling spelling s name q.
Somits up to you kng ang susundin mong birthdate eh ung dati mo n ginagamit or ung andun s NSO copy mo.
DarrylSuxxx says
Hello, as far as what I get all over the Net and PSA site. This needs filing in court since the error involves dates.
Ermz says
Ask ko lang po, tomorrow na kasi appointment ko, eh ang problema nawawala nso birth cert. ko at ngayon ko lang napansin. Pero may xerox/scanned copy ako. Tatanggapin kaya nila un?
If ever na ndi ako pumunta sa appointment, ilang months bago ako makapagapply ulit?
Thank you and godbless 😁.
Mommy Levy says
need nila ng original copy po.
irish marzan says
hi ok lang poh ba na NSO poh ang BC ko not sya PSA??
Mommy Levy says
sabi ng iba tinatanggap naman daw yung sa kanila.
robhea says
Good day! may NSO birth cert at marriage contract both from NSO na kinuha ko nung 2015,pwede ko p PO KyNG ipasa yun sa DFA or kelangan manguha uli ng bago? nagiba na po b yung appearance ng NSO Cert.? PSA na po b ang logo?
Mommy Levy says
yes PSA na ang logo. Sabi ng iba tinatanggap pa naman daw NSO copy.
Pearlyshells says
Hi po. Nakaschedule po ako for renewal ng passport sa June 7. Ask ko lang po if kelangan pa talaga ng latest secpa ng birth certificate. The one I have kasi po is the old one (color blue) pero naka red ribbon na. Just want to make sure para if ever di pwede makarequest na ako agad ng bagong nso copy.
Mommy Levy says
as far as I know mas prefer nila ang PSA copy kesa SECPA (ito yung sa local registrar di ba?)
Pearlyshells says
I actually don’t know hahaha. Grew up abroad po kasi and parents ko nag-aasikaso ng mga paperworks ko. First time ko po kasi magrerenew dito sa Pinas and last time na narenew passport ko was on 2009 and expired on 2014 Anyway nakalagay sa birth certificate ko is Certified True Copy of NSO Birth Certificate.
mr. hard says
ma’am tanong ko lng po kung kukunin po b lahat original copy ng nso at ano ba dapat dahil at ipaxerox?
Mommy Levy says
yes they will get all the original copies of PSA certificates. ID lang siguro ang need ipa photocopy.
bevS says
paano po kapag nagkamali ako sa nalagay na mothers name sa appointment na nagawa ko ok lang po ba yun?
Mommy Levy says
Pwede siguro i-correct sa DFA mismo
Darill says
Good day Mam!
Nagpa schedule po ako ng appointment for new passport application for my wife and my daughter.. 1 copy lang po ang NSO marriage cert ang meron kame. Ok lang po ba un or kelangan 2pcs din po ang Marriage cert na kailangan.. Kinukuha po ba nila ang BC at MC or un xerox copy lang..
Salamat po kung masasagot.
Mommy Levy says
Ang alam ko dapat tag-isa sila ng marriage certificate. Kinukuha nila ang original copy, hindi pwede ang photocopy.
mary joy gonzales says
hello po ask ko lang po nka sched kasi aq sa dfa ng july 10, tpos lately lng nmin nakta n may mali s marraige contrct nmin which is ung birthdate ko …kpag pinaayos ba nmin un mdali lang mkakuha ulit s nso ng copy..?
Mommy Levy says

Finnie says
Hello po. Nagpunta po ako sa dfa last week pero kailangan ko pa po bumalik kasi kulang ng form 137. Need pa po ba magpaappoint ulit? Thanks you po.
Mommy Levy says
as far as I know, yes need ulit ng appointment. Pero para sure pakitanong na lang din sa mismong DFA.
Angela says
Mam, anu po dinala nyo na requirements.
Yung sakin po kasi
nBI, PSA birth,police,form1, voters at postal. Pero di po magka address yung postal ko at voters ok. Lang po ba yun?
Mommy Levy says
ang NSO/PSA copy ng birth certificate ang importante
Nanot says
Hi mommy Levy,
Ask ko lang po, mali po kc yung middle initial ng tatay ko sa birth certificate ko. OK lang po kaya na yun na lang gamitin ko pagkuha ng passport, wala naman po kasi Mali sa name ko.. Middle initial lang ng tatay ko. Pati po ang mga document n ipapakita sa dfa ay mga id’s ko Hindi nmn s tatay ko.. Thank you po!
Mommy Levy says
I think okay lang yan, wala naman siguro yan magiging kaso para di tanggapin.
Nanot says
OK lang po kahit mali middle initial ng tatay ko s birth certificate ko? D po b nila mapapansin yun? Thank you po ulit! 😊😊
Mommy Levy says
I’m really not sure since I am not connected to DFA. But, for me kasi it doesn’t matter since as you have mentioned it’s your passport naman.
Chikay says
Hi! I would like to ask if do you have an idea if need pa ba magpa appointment kung ang kukuha ng passport ay 3 mos. Old, 4 yrs old, 14 yrs old at 41 yrs. Old?
Dapat ba 3 copies ang I prepare Kong marriage contract? 1 for each child?
Mommy Levy says
yes kailangan po magpa schedule ng appointment. I think yes 3 marriage contracts ang kailangan
Jeryl says
Dapat bang original copy yung MC lahat? Thanks po
Mommy Levy says
as far as I know yes!
Stark says
Maam matanong ko lg po. My nso bc is ok. But the only problem is that my father doesnt have his middle name written on my birth cert. Will they accept my nso? Thanks
Mommy Levy says
I think that’s okay.
Princess says
Hi po, i just saw your page today, Im a 22 yr old student and i dont have any valid ID, pwede po ba school ID ang i-present? Or kelangan po tlaga ng kahit isang valid id? Thank you po
Mommy Levy says
why not get a postal ID to be sure
Leah says
Good day ! Nakaschedule na po ako sa dfa . And minor po ako kukuha ng passport with guardian.ask ko lang po if need din ng affidavit or invitation letter from your traveling companion para makakuha ng passport.naguguluhan po ako gusto ko lang po kasi kumuha ng maaga para preffered
Mommy Levy says
please contact DFA. I’m sorry but I can’t answer your question.
Bim says
Hello Leah,
Check their website kc andun nman lahat mga kailangan requirements.
Maricel says
Ma’am paano po kapag nagpa’appointment po kami ng Family ko sa DFA noong February 20, tapos yung pamangkin ko lang ang hindi nakunan ng picture kasi Incomplete Documents siya, need pa niya ng DSWD Clearance, Power of Attorney at Consent kasi nasa Japan mother niya. Ngayon lang po namin na’kumpleto lahat ng Requirements. Kailangan po ba magpa-reschedule ulit or kahit dumerecho na sa DFA? Salamat po.
Mommy Levy says
we were informed nung kami na hindi na namin kailangan magpa schedule pagbalik namin. But my son has a PWD ID din kasi, so I am not sure if same sa inyo. As of now, July na ang available slots sa DFA website.
Maricel says
Thank you po Ma’am. Oo nga po Ma’am eh, kung sakaling need pa magpa’re-sched ulit sobrang tagal pa. Pero buti na lang po at nagtxt na din po sa amin ung Agency na nag-ayos ng Passports namin. Ang new sched ng pamangkin ko sa April 11. Thank you po ulit. 🙂
Alex says
Hi,
I would like to ask if valid po ba yung NSO BC? Rather PSA BC? or they are the same lang? Old na po ksi yung Birth Certificate copy ko from NSO pa but clear pa naman.
Thank you!
Mommy Levy says
some readers here said that DFA still accept the old NSO copy of their BC. I suggest try it na lang or better yet para sure get a latest copy na before you visit DFA, it’s only P170 in SM and you just need to wait 1 week for it.
Emman says
Ilang copies po ng nso need nila? i got the same problem. sa birthplace ko name ng hospital nakalagay and ayaw tangapin ng dfa
Mommy Levy says
isang copy lang naman po
Emman says
Gaano po kaya katagal bago mailagay yung supplemental report sa gilid ng nso? Yun lang hinihingi skin nung dfa
Mommy Levy says
mga 1 month inabot nung akin
efrelyn policarpio says
My cousin just found out na wala X sa gender nya sa BC. the DFA officer ask her to get a supplemental agreement. Is the agreement enough since wala naman sinabi yung officer na ipa-authenticate sa NSO, o kailangan pa tlga ipa-authenticate which according to your post will take a month. We already have a booked ticket abroad at May 25.
Mommy Levy says
based on my experience DFA need an authenticated/corrected copy of the birth certificate. But, to be sure you can ask them also if they will accept the supplemental report from your local municipality na since malapit na flight.
Anne says
Hi Emma,
Same tayo ng problem. Ask ko lang naayos mo na ba yung BC mo? Yung sakin kasi pinag inaayos na ng mother ko sa Manila City Hall. Kaya lang pinag aantay ako ng 2 months yun na daw yung pinaka mabilis. =(
Emman says
Good day Ms. Anne, nag apply ako last April 4, then august 4 daw i follow-up. Buti po sayo 2 months lang? Plan ko ifollow up everymonth para sure, kaylangan na kaylangan na kasi
Xandra says
Mam. may appointment ako sa 28. Tapos yung Psa(nso) ko not clear, kelangan po ba may dala akong ibang supporting documents para tanggapin nila?
Mommy Levy says
pa check nyo na lang po muna. Only valid IDs and birth certificate lang naman kailangan nila
Cherry says
Mam yung bagong nso copy ni ren nirequire nila after makuha mo na po yung supplemental report?
Mommy Levy says
kasama yun sa process, yung supplemental report dadalhin mo sa NSO sa QC then mag fill up ka ng form then babalikan mo, tapos bibigyan ka na nila ng bagong copy na corrected
Xandra says
Ang meron ako Baptismal, NBI. Ano ano pa po ba kelangan nila?
Mommy Levy says
you can check the list of requirements here: http://www.dfa.gov.ph/2013-04-04-06-59-48
Junnie says
Hi po good day.
Lost valid passport po ako..pero even nga 2nd time dun nila n detect na A.C lang place of birth of ko instead na Angeles city..taga mindoro n po ako ngayun..paano kaya ang mabilis na process kc kelangan ko n talaga mag abroad..arrggh…
They put note on my documents in dfa ‘LCR-supplemental report re:POB – local copy BC
>new psa Bc w/POB
Is it mean that supplemental report is other than new psa or nso copy wid birth certicate?
Hoping for your answer
Thank you
Mommy Levy says
I don’t know any easy way. Actually madali lang naman mag process, yung pag aantay lang ang matagal. If you have friends or relatives in Angeles City ask them to help you out.
Cherry says
Ma’am saan po kayo kumuha ng new copy of nso ng anak nyo doon na rin po ba sa munisipyo? Or yung via online? Ganito rin po kasi ang sitwasyon ko ngayon. Worst is taga dasma na ako , and yung place of birth ko sa pasig pa. Hays
Mommy Levy says
try SM Payment center only 170, kaso you need to wait 2 weeks to redeem it. If online mas mahal asa 300+ ata pero mas mabilis naman.
lienel says
Hi po ask ko lang po kung tatangapin po ba ng dfa yung NSO ko na mali po yung gender kasi po imbis na female naging male po , tatanggapin po kaya nila yun ?
Mommy Levy says
I think you need to fix your birth certificate first, mukhang hindi sya tatanggapin ng DFA unless hindi nila mapansin
Aivie says
Hi pano po pag nagkamli ng place of birth sa application form at sa nso .. Maaayos po b un o d na ttanggapin?
Mommy Levy says
What do you mean? magkaiba yung nasa local civil registrar sa NSO copy mo?
Anne says
Hi
Ganyan din ang prob ko now. Hospital name lang kasi ang nakalagay sa BC ko. Now inaayos na ng mother ko sa Manila City Hall. Pero sabi nila 4 months daw talaga ang process. Rush na lang daw nila pero need ko pa din mag wait ng 2 months.
Bakit ganun? yung kay Ren 1 month lang ang inabot?
Mommy Levy says
ako ang nag-ayos nung kay Ren mismo and yes 1 month halos inabot.
Cindy says
Hello po. Good afternoon. Mag iinquire lang sana ako. may prob kasi sa last name ko sa birth certificate. ongoing pa ang process ng correction sa error sa civil registry. Possible po ba na makakuha ako ng passport? kasi sabi nila around 3-6 months pa daw ang process..thank you
Mommy Levy says
base sa experience ko, I think hindi pwede. Pero wala naman masama if magtatanong ka especially if may hawak kang proof na pinaprocess na sya
Earl John Lagunsad says
Hi po mam. Nakakuha po kayo kahet pinaprocess pa lang yung error sa birth certificate nyo po? Please need some info. Balak ko po kasi kumuha ng cert sa city hall about sa issue and papayagan kaya?
Mommy Levy says
nope, inantay ko po matapos yung pag process at makakuha ng bago/corrected NSO copy bago ako bumalik sa DFA
Susan says
Hello, may i ask if DFA consider nso birth certificate and cenomar expired or not? ive checked my NSO birth certificate, 2013 ko pa kinuha.. ung isa 2015.. tatanggapin po kaya nila ito? Salamat.
Also kailangan pa ba magdala ng passport size picture or dun nalang pipicturan? thanks
Mommy Levy says
I think pwede pa yung copy po. No need na magdala ng picture, don ka mismo kukuhanan.
Mei says

Mommy Levy says
I’m sorry but I am not the right person to answer your questions. Wala po akong alam sa gantong sitwasyon. I think it’s better pa din to ask a professional like an attorney to help you.
Jonathan alfafara says
mam bukas na po ung appointment ko sa DFA po..
lately ko lng kasi nakita na uing BC ko ay ung NSO pa na luma issued LCR..
wala nmn errors sa mga details.. may CTC dn po sya nakalagay..
wala na kasi ako tym kumuha pa ng PSA copy ung yellow. 3-6days daw pa makukuha.
tatanggapin po kaya ito?
Mommy Levy says
I think they still accept NSO copy according to some readers here
Angeli says
Hi. Kung nabasa ko lang tong post ahead of time naayos ko sana BC ko. I went to DFA today for my passport renewal. Sabi nila discrepancy sa birth place since hospital lang ang nakalagay. Yung 2 requirements mo ba need din nila ng original copy and xerox copy sa Manila City Hall? Kung marriage contract, baptismal at BC, kailangan all original copies?
Mommy Levy says
yes they need the original copies of all the NSO/PSA copy of documents
Angeli says
Kailangan sa DFA birth cert talaga, di nila consider ang marriage contract na may birth place?
Mommy Levy says
hindi po, bale 2 ang kailangan nyong dalhin birth certificate at marriage contract na NSO/PSA copy. Kailangan nila mismo ang original copy.
Earl John Lagunsad says
Hi po ask lang if naprocess nyo na yung case sa birthplace nyo? Ano po ba requirements para makakuha ng Supplementary Report? Thank you po. Please need some info kasi kailangan ko po tlga makakuha ng passport ee.
Mommy Levy says
yes after a month, na correct na ang NSO copy nya. The requirements needed are in the articles above. Kindly check the picture.
Earl John Lagunsad says
Ganun po ba sya tlga katagal? Need ko na kasi po tlga ng passport ee may ibang way pa kaya?
Mommy Levy says
hindi ko pa alam ganun katagal per munisipyo, pero sa Manila po at base sa experience ko inabot kami halos ng 1 buwan bago matapos
Earl Lagunsad says
Nakapagfile na po ako nung petition and sabi maayos daw mga 4 mos bago maayos iba pa po ba yung supplemantal report dun?
Mommy Levy says
If the purpose is that they’re going to correct the wrong thing in your NSO copy, then petition and supplemental report are more likely the same.
J says
Kapag po ba renewal, yung old passport lang ipapakita? Thank you po
Mommy Levy says
I have no idea, kindly check DFA’s site for your concern.
Johnli says
Hi Mam Levy,
Okay lang po ba ang Company ID ang valid ID na papakita niyo sa kanila?
Mommy Levy says
I think it’s acceptable, but it is not included here – http://www.dfa.gov.ph/index.php/2013-04-04-07-01-23
diana rose miranda says
Hi, ask ko po marriage contract kasi namin ay CTC lang po kasi hindi pa napoprocess ng munisipyo, need pa po ba ipa-authenticated sa PSA?
Mommy Levy says
if for passport purposes, it should be PSA copy as far as I know.
Myzel says
Ok po kaya kung NSO certified yung Birth Certificate at hinde PSA? Tinatanggap po kaya nila yun 2013 po kasi naiissue yung akin. Wala na po ako time kumuha ng PSA.
Mommy Levy says
I think they will accept it. Pakibalikan ako if tinanggap ha.
Jaquiline S. Aquino says
Good evening po ma’am..ask KO lang po idea nyo mam if accepted kaya to…..
1.wala po petsa ang kasal ng papa at mama KO sa BC ko(1- -73)parang ganyan po..pero may copy ako original ng kanilang contract marriage.
2.yung address KO po na naksulat sa nso KO is sitio lang po tsaka municipality and province..walang baranggay…pero yung supporting documents KO is may sitio,baranggy,municipality and province..
Malapit na kc appointment ..Hindi KO po Alam if accept kaya ng dfa..wait for your advise ma’am saamat po
Mommy Levy says
I think yung mga kulang sa details is hindi naman ganun ka importante. Sa tingin ko tatanggapin naman nila.
Jhem says
Good afternoon!Im a new applicant and already have my schedule on Feb.09,2017, but I’m worried because my birth certificate from NSO was since 2008 because my name has corrections.Since it has corrections, I can no longer ask for another copy thru phone.Is my 2008 original copy from NSO ok for my first time application?Hoping for your fast reply on this.Thank you and God bless
Mommy Levy says
I am not sure if they will accept it. Bakit di ka pwede humingi ng new copy from NSO?
nancy says

Annie says
Hi Mommy Levy!
Do i need to secure the CTC copy of my Marriage Certificate from LCR aside from the Authenticated copy from NSO? Thanks!
Mommy Levy says
PSO/NSO copy I think is enough
Earl John Lagunsad says
Hi po mam ask lang po how to get Supplementary Report? Kasi sa birth place ko nakalagay lang yung hospital and hindi tinanggap ng dfa. And gaano po katagal bago makuha yung report?
Mommy Levy says
go to your municipality then fill up application forms (all the requirements are stated above). It took us a month bago namin nakuha ang corrected copy.
Cariza says
Hi ask ko lang po kasi yung baby ko is 1 month old p lang and we are planning to get her a passport asap kc need for my husband’s job.
Problem ko kasi is yung sECPA na BC wala pa.
Possible kaya tanggapin ni DFA yung CTC na Birth Certificate issued by LCR?
Nabasa ko rin po na pag walang SECPA pwede ung CTC na BC from LCR pero aunthenticated by PSA.
Saan po bang office ng PSA pwede ipaauthenticate yung CTC LCR issued BC ng baby ko?
Thanks
Mommy Levy says
I don’t know mommy Cariza. I can’t answer your questions, wala akong idea if they will accept it.
Jenni Teves says
Hello po ask ko lang po ung BC ko po kc hand written lang dahil un ung original form ngayon mejo unreadble nabasa ko po na kailangan ng transcribed BC from LCR ano po ba ibig sabihin non? Salamat po
Mommy Levy says

merly says
Hello mam accepted po ba ang NSO initial middle name? Yun po kasi nasa original please write me back if you can

Mommy Levy says
I think okay lang naman
al says

galing ako ng DFA manila knina. pero wla akong birth place. so sbi ng dfa pmnta ako sa city hall manila to file supplemental report at kumuha ng secpa. pero kumuha muna ako ng CTC ng BC .pag kuha ko ng CTC Meron nmn akong birth place so they suggest na kumuha ako ng secpa . pero sa jan. 18 ko pa makukuha ang releasing ng secpa. after ba nun pwede ko na dalhin sa dfa requirements ko.
Mommy Levy says
after ng SECPA, dadalhin mo sya sa NSO office para sa PSO copy. Sa’kin after ko makuha yung PSO corrected copy saka pa lang ako bumalik ng DFA.
Ronn says
Hi Mommy Levy,
You mentioned that it took you a month to get the corrected NSO Birth Certificate of your son, is that also the time you continue to process your child’s passport or while waiting for a month, NSO gave something so you can continue processing the passport?
Mommy Levy says
no they did not. I waited for the whole process to finish bago ako bumalik sa DFA
dan says
sbi po ksi ng dfa knina ng manila. okay na requirements ko .problema nlng ung place of birth ng BC ko ay blurred. kelngan ko pa ba kumuha ng supplemental or sepca with nso authentication lang po.meron nrn po akong CTC ng BC
Ces Lee says

Do I have to cancel my appointment tomorrow because of our birth certificates? I am not really aware of this thing. Hope I can get answer from you asap. Thank you so much in advance
Mommy Levy says

Good afternoon po! The Land Title is included in the list of supporting documents, right? Will they accept a photocopy? Thank you so much.
Mommy Levy says

vicente ballesca says
Hi Mommy Levy,
I’m scheduled for an group appointment to renew my green passport on Jan 17, 2017. I requested (after I made an appointment with DFA Alabang) a copy of my Birth Certificate last December 2016 and found out there were errors on my certificate . Now I have to go to my Local registry on January 16 to fix it and it would take one and half months to process, What will happen when I go to DFA Alabang on Jan 17 with incomplete requirements specially the PSA Birth Certificate. Would they still entertain me and process my application and just ask me to submit the need requirement or ask me to set other appointment and return when I have completed my requirements? Thanks a lot. and GOD BLESS!
Mommy Levy says
As far as I know they will require you to go back with the complete requirements, hindi kasi ako nagtanong if pwede to follow na lang.
NiCaridee says
Hi Mommy Levy,
Are you aware/familiar if DFA will honor the NSO birth cert or I really needed to get the PSA birth certificate? Thank you!
Mommy Levy says
they prefer the PSA.
Maribel Gatong says
Ma’am, if BC is blurred, need po ng transcribed local copy of BC, saan po puwedeng kumaha, if hndi kayang makauwi ng province? thank you…
Mommy Levy says
get an NSO copy. That’s what they need hindi local copy
Trish says
Hi, I have 2 questions:
1. will DFA take the original copy of my documents (like birth certificate and marriage contract)?
My family is planning to get a group appointment for new application of passport. My son is only 5 years old. I am preparing the needed documents and I’m wondering if DFA will get the original marriage certificate for my son’s supporting document. Because if so, I will need to get at least 2 original PSA marriage certificates for me and my son’s passport application. Am I correct?
2. Is NBI Clearance a REQUIRED supporting document?
I checked the list of supporting documents online and mentioned in the site that I need to bring at least 2 or 3 of the listed docs. listed were marriage contract, land title, transcript of records, nbi, brgy clearance, digitized postal id etc.
I already have 3: marriage contract, transcript of records and digitized postal id. Do i still need to acquire NBI Clearance in addition or as part of the 3?
Thank you and God bless
Mommy Levy says
Hi,
1. Yes they will take all the original copies
2. It is not required. I think the NSO copies plus postal ID are enough
Jossa Sara Diaz says
Hello po. I dont have a middle name on my NSO birth certificate. Hindi po ba ako maaring kumuha ng passport? Salamat po. 🙂
Mommy Levy says
I can’t answer your question, sorry.
diosa says
Hello po. ask ko lang po kung wala po bang conflict kapag may correction sa application form po for passport? yung father’s name ko po kase ang nailagay is yung name ko po. pano po yon? kinakabahan po ako, baka po kase madecline ako. thankyou po sa sasagot.
Mommy Levy says
pwede sigurong ipa edit na lang sa DFA mismo pagdating mo.
Diosa solomon says
Hello po. Ask ko lang po kung anong requirements for minor age of 8,9,10. Magpapa passport po yung mga pinsan ko pero wala po yung mga mother nila, nasa ibang bansa po. And hindi po sila kasal. Pano po ba gagawin? Thankyou po sa pagsagot.
Mommy Levy says
paki check na lang sa DFA website
Ning says
Hi, halos same scenario kaibahan lang no name yung sa NSO BC ko. I was applying for a passport. Sabi ng DFA punta daw ako sa cityhall kung saan ako ipinanganak. Sa remarks ng application ko sa DFA supplemental report reg. first name. pero sa CTC ng BC ko andun naman yung first name ko. pero still they prefer NSO copy. galing ako ng manila cityhall kanina, balik daw ako ng Jan 05, ano ba yung makukuha ko on Jan 5? ayun na ba yung supplemental report ? pero sabi sa dfa aabutin daw ng 3 wks proseso nun?
Mommy Levy says
yung Supplemental report ang babalikan mo, then dadalhin mo yun mismo sa NSO head office. Tapos mag aantay ka pa ulit ng ilang araw para sa release nun.
Ning says
sabi kasi sa cityhall makukuha ko lang yung copy pero sila na daw magpapadala nun sa NSO. ganun ba yun?
Mommy Levy says
base sa experience ko sa Manila City Hall din, ako mismo ang nagdala sa NSO sa QC. This was last May before the election, so I’m not sure if may binago sila sa system na ngayon.
Ning says
mukhang bago na yung process nila. kasi copy lang daw makukuha ko tapos sila daw ang magpapadala nun. yung ikaw ang nagdala ang ginawa nila sa supplemental report? and ilang days bago yung lumabas sa nso?
sharmaine says
hi mam ask ko lang po.. nawala.po ang original birth certificate ko.. and then pinangkuha po aq ng lolo q ng b.c sa LCR tama po ang name ng tatay q at apelido way back 1998 para sa school record. and then ngaun po. kumuha aq ng nso q ung apelido po ng tatay q po iba na po sa nso which is sumobra po ng letter u na parang error sa pgtatype pwede po ba sa suplemental ito salamt po !!
Mommy Levy says
I’m not sure po if pwede sa supplemental kasi di naman ata importante ang name ng parents kasi di naman sa kanila ang passport, so I’m not sure if ipapa correct pa nila.
Elma says
Hi!.,ask ko lng po kase yung marriage cert n hawak ko ang nka stamp pa ay NSO hnd pa PSA pwede pa po ba yun?accept p kaya yun ng dfa?
Mommy Levy says
they prefer the latest PSA copy po
Elma says
Thank u..inaccept p dn nila ung old copy of nso..we already have our passport na.
Trixia says
Did you file a marriage cert ba? Pwede po ba kahit old copy of Marriage Certificate? Ayaw na namin ng mama, and sister ko na kumuha pa ng latest copy.
Mommy Levy says
Try nyo na lang po baka pwede naman
Brylle says

aileen says

Diane says
Hi. May I ask how long it took you to receive the corrected NSO BC of your son after you filed a supplemental report? I cant apply for a pssport because my place of birth in my NSO doesnt have city and province.
Mommy Levy says
it took me a month 🙁
Yoh says
Hi,
Iba pa ung supplemental report sa certificate of on going process no? So same kasi kami ng anak mo, however, ako yung need ng passport. So ano requirements ni supplemental? Di nako nagbackread kasi iba iba questions nila.
Mommy Levy says
pakibasa po sa post yung requirements to get a supplemental report. salamat.
Loraine says
Mga ilang buwan po?
Mikaela says
Hi, I would like to ask we were on the same scenario actually. Mine is an error at my birthplace I already filed it at the Manila City Hall. And when I went back to DFA Alabang they did not issue my passport for they were asking a “Petition Granted” paper something like that. I’d like to ask did they issue your passport? What did you do? Pls do send me a message. Thank you very much! God Speed.
Mommy Levy says
Hi, did you apply for supplemental report? My son already got his passport after NSO fixed the problem on his birth certificate
Neneth says
Hello Ma’am Levy,
Pano po kaya yun nag fill up po ako ng Appointment Online para sa renewal ng passport kaya lang po hindi ko napansin na hindi ko po pala nalagyan ng Middle Name pero dun sa old passport ko may Middle Name po ako…Ok lang po ba yun or may conflict? Salamat Po!
Mommy Levy says
di ko po alam kung magkakaroon ng problema regarding dyan.
