What you can settle without traveling
These go online, by mail or through other offices, without going to San Francisco:
- A 9(a) visa for a foreign spouse or friend: The Embassy’s fee table has a section for e-Visa online applications, with a $25 convenience fee on top of the visa fee.
- PSA certificates: Birth, marriage and death certificates and the CENOMAR come from the Philippine Statistics Authority. PSAHelpline.ph takes orders from abroad and prepares them for a courier that you arrange.
- An apostille: American public documents for use in the Philippines are apostilled by the US office that has authority over them, usually a Secretary of State. The Chicago and Los Angeles consulates say they stopped authenticating them in May 2019.
- The NBI clearance fingerprints: The NBI’s page for applicants abroad accepts the rolled fingerprints from a Philippine embassy, a consular office or the nearest police station, and the form then goes to the NBI by mail.
