The Philippine Consulate General in Guam, in coordination with Philippine honorary consul Glicerio Arago, will be having their fifth and last mobile mission on Saipan this year.<\/p>\n
The mobile consular service is set next week, Oct. 19 to 22, at the Mount Carmel Social Hall.<\/p>\n
For Oct. 19, 20, and 22, the mobile mission will be open from 9am to 6pm, while on Oct. 21, it will be from 10am to 7pm.<\/p>\n
Unlike their past mobile missions, passport applications will be done on a first come-first served basis.<\/p>\n
According to the consulate, they will only accept the first 256 completed ePassport applications due to technical capacity of their equipment.<\/p>\n
Arago said copies of the application forms may be obtained from Mel Santos, who may be contacted at 233-2898.<\/p>\n
Notarials and civil registration services will also be available as usual. To avoid delays in the processing of these applications, applicants are advised not to fold copies of their requirements.<\/p>\n
The consulate just had their fourth mobile mission last month, after their original August schedule was cancelled due to Typhoon Soudelor.<\/p>\n
Philippine Consul Edgar Auxilian earlier said that they will be scheduling this upcoming mobile mission prior to the closing of the registration period for overseas absentee voting on Oct. 31.<\/p>\n
He added that they will be stopping by Rota as well, but Arago said the Guam consulate may just go straight there from Guam as it is closer than Saipan.<\/p>\n
In September, they were able to process 448 passport applications, 160 extensions, and 243 overseas voters registrations in Saipan and Tinian.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
