The report is encouraged within one year of marriage but there is no mention of penalty for reporting it late.

I have been married almost three years. I tried to report my marriage to SFO Consulate when I was there to renew my passport but they did not accept the ROM. Since I married in Vegas, they told me to report the marriage to LAX Consulate who has jurisdiction. End result, my passport was renewed under my old name since "I did not report the marriage".

Bureaucracy at its best!

I believe that thr form will get forwarded to the NSO to register the marriage in the philippines. Otherwise, the filipina would be able to marry another person in the PI legally, cuz she shows no record of marriage in the Philippines.
