The Philippine Consulate General in Chicago holds an annual outreach event in Maryland Heights, Missouri, to provide local services like passport renewals and dual citizenship applications. This yearly mission helps Filipino and Filipino-American residents complete official paperwork without having to travel a long distance to the main office in Illinois. To participate, individuals must secure an appointment in advance through an online portal or via email, as the event cannot accept any walk-in clients. Because no extra services are provided at the temporary venue, attendees are required to bring their own pens and physical copies of all necessary documents. If you need to send physical paperwork, the official mailing address for the Philippine Consulate General is 122 S. Michigan Ave., Suite 1600, Chicago, Illinois 60603.
