The Philippine Consulate General in New York informs the public that consular services will be suspended beginning tomorrow, Wednesday, 20 April 2022 to ensure the safety of kababayan in view of multiple COVID-19 exposures of Consulate personnel.


Kababayan who visited the Philippine Center on Monday, 18 April 2022 and today, 19 April 2022, are advised to check themselves for symptoms and/or to get themselves tested.


Normal consular operations will resume on Monday, 25 April 2022.


Kababayan with appointments scheduled tomorrow, Wednesday 20 April 2022 until Friday, 22 April 2022, will be contacted by email to inform them of their new appointment dates.


The Consulate will, however, accommodate Filipinos in distress and other emergency cases.


The Consulate will also continue Overseas Absentee Voting preparations and operations.


We ask for the public’s patience and understanding as we endeavor to ensure everyone’s health and safety.
