Three procedures that skip the consulate entirely
Check this list first, it covers most of the reasons people book an appointment they did not need:
- PSA documents, the security-paper certificates everything else depends on, are ordered online and shipped internationally.
- Apostilles on American documents come from the issuing state’s competent authority. Since 15 May 2019 the consulate cannot authenticate them.
- The NBI clearance is issued in the Philippines. The consulate’s only part is notarising your fingerprint card.
What does require appearing in person is anything biometric or signed: a passport, the oath of allegiance and a special power of attorney signed before a consular officer.
