20 July 2020, Calgary – After being unable to
conduct its once-a-month Saturday consular service from March to June 2020 due
to the province of Alberta’s declaration of public health emergency related to
COVID-19 pandemic, the Philippine Consulate General (PCG) in Calgary resumed
its Saturday consular service on 18 July 2020 and processed a total of 67
in-person passport renewal applications that day.
The PCG has announced that it will
conduct two (2) Saturday consular services per month from July to October 2020
to accommodate more passport applicants.
During this period, the other Saturday
consular services will be held on the following dates: 25
July 2020; 8 and 15 August 2020; 19 and 26 September 2020; and 17 and 24 October
2020.
The PCG will go
back to its once-a-month Saturday consular service on 21 November and 19
December 2020.
In compliance
with physical distancing and other public health measures still in place in
Alberta due to COVID-19, the PCG is accepting in-person applications for
passport renewal only at this time. All other consular services are accepted
and released by mail.
