DFA will not issue daughters passport

[superwifey0229 1]

I got went to robinson pampanga last saturday and got my son's Phil passport with no problem.. I showed them the Us passport and it wasn't an issue either. Lets all hope this will work. Lol

Recognition to Filipino citizenship cost is 11,050 pesos. Less than 1,500 compare to their website posted (Phil immigration)

 

I complete all requirements. Then go back from.the date of hearing listed in receipt.

 

The attorney asked few question then she signed on my application.

Hearing took only 10 mins on my case., then done!

 

Need to go finger print area and need to wait 2 to 3 mos to get my daughter I.d certificate.

Or... go to a different DFA office where they will simple issue the passport.

Did you complete recognition as a Filipino Citizen for your daughter so your daughter is a dual citizen? I would think that name would be a legal name also. Doubt the personnel at DFA will care just the same.

Exit using the U.S. passport, see if the recognition exempts or avoids any fees. Then if having a Philippine passport is important check into getting the passport through the Philippine embassy in the States, I would bet there are passports issued using names with conventional U.S. name format. ~ just a thought.

Is this true? Well my children were born here in the Philippines, not abroad. If abroad then yes I need to apply this recognition as a Filipino Citizen. I hope I'm not wrong about this. Thanks

Did you complete CRBA and get their U.S. passport already at the embassy?   

 

1) Before you have completing the CRBA process head over to DFA and apply for the child's passport.  Then head over to the embassy for CRBA.      

 

2) The DFA office within metro Manila are easier to get this done, especially if the child's name did not follow traditional naming format.

Oh yea, both of my sons have U.S. passports years ago, ages 5 and 4. Tomorrow, I'm going to DFA for their Philippine passports to apply so to avoid the fees for overstaying. Like I mentioned recently about recognition of a Filipino citizen, I won't think I'm need to apply for this because both of my boys were born here in the Philippines and are still living here

Oh, do you mean I'm supposed to apply Philippine passports for my boys first before to process the CRBA? We already have U.S. passports with CRBA and don't have Philippine passports yet :/

Recognition process is done here in the Philippines.  In the USA Report of Birth is completed through the consulate.

 

Recognition is completed by foreign national who's parents or parent is/was a Philippine citizen at the time of their birth.   Your kids are foreign national as they have U.S. passports only.

http://www.immigration.gov.ph/services/citizenship-retention-and-aquisition/recognition-as-filipino-citizen

 

You may or may not run into an issue with this at DFA, sort of varies by office.  Just a heads up.  I know some that banged into this and it ruined their day, whereas others slid right on by.

 

Applying for the Philippine passports before completing CRBA, even an hour before, sidesteps this issue..    

 

The child is a dual citizen by fact of birth, CRBA does not remove their Philippine citizenship so this recognition process is a bunch of you know what.  But DFA is known to play this recognition card at times.

Thank you for the input. I will find out at DFA tomorrow to present my sons' NSO ( PSA ) birth certificates, my filipina wife's Philippine passport and our NSO ( PSA ) marriage certificate. I don't see anything wrong with to apply for my boys because they were born here so it's just the recognition of filipino citizen I could not understand at all

Hank,

I have no issue with DFA because my boys' mother is pure Filipina, not a USC, still living & born here in the Philippines. They said if my wife is a USC or the boys born in the USA then we have to apply for recognition of a filipino citizen. Kinda tricky. Well, that's good news for us!

Some DFA offices, namely up Pampanga way gave a couple, that stopped in here a short time back, lots of flack 1) for  the name not being the traditional Philippine format, but U.S. way,  2) told them they needed to complete recognition for the child ... they drove down to the main office of DFA... no issues, passport issued in short order.    I have found quite often how things are done in many of the offices has nothing to do with the listed process and more so to do with someone's opinion... sadly.

 

DFA Aseana was excellent when my wife was there a few weeks ago, as was PSA.

Naming standard in the Philippines is: First name - given name; Middle name - Mother's maiden name; last name- father's family name. That is as per Philippine standard naming, the same problem encountered by some Filipinos born in the US that didn't use their Filipino mothers maiden name. That is as per family code of the Philippines.

Art. 174. Legitimate children shall have the right:

 

• (1) To bear the surnames of the father and the mother, in conformity with the provisions of the Civil Code on Surnames;

You can fight DFA on how come PSA/ NSO allowed the name of the child knowing the law. Since changing the name is not your option, you have to settle not getting a Philippine Passport for your child.

According to Art. 375 of the new civil code, the use of a middle name or the mothers surname is mandatory only in the case of descendants bearing identical first names. So you don't even have to have a middle name for your daughter here in the Philippines, you can write N/A, or you can use whatever name you like.
