@Chao: I did apply at their website for the renewal of my passport but a Teleserve personnel at the DFA denied that they're still entertaining Saturday appearances.

Thanks for posting this, I too applied for a passport online but have yet to go to the DFA for my appearance. I called the teleserv customer service number and was told that Saturday appearances at the DFA was valid only for applicants that applied through the their website. I assume you applied through their website as well. That's just weird...

@Joni: Yup. Hehe. Someone I know got his passport through the normal process and was done in no more than half a day. You just need to be early and make sure your pics meet the requirement. Most of the time, people need to stay longer for the re-taking of the passport pictures.

Aww, wala pa rin akong passport hanggang ngayon. I'm planning to get mine one of these days. Thanks for informing us that the online application thing is practically useless! lol.
