How will the facilities improvement affect the Embassy’s services?
A new Consular public services building will be built, which will feature large, indoor waiting areas for the public, and the number of service windows for passport and other applications will be expanded from 66 to 98. This will make the process of acquiring visas and other documents more efficient, faster, and more pleasant for the public. There will also be more windows for the processing and delivery of services to American citizens and Filipino citizens who qualify for Veterans Administration and Social Security Administration benefits. Additionally, larger offices and a larger, more modern medical clinic for veterans will be constructed on the Seafront Compound.
