Philippine Consulate in Yonkers, NY

Yonkers does not have its own Philippine consulate. It is served by the Philippine Consulate General in New York, 15 miles away, about 25 min by road, and every appointment, passport and notarial act for Yonkers residents happens there.

Which Philippine consulate serves Yonkers

Every Philippine procedure for a New York resident goes through New York: its district is Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Vermont. Distances from the other cities in the state are on the New York page.

Yonkers is 15 miles from the consulate, 25 min by road, so the practical question is not how to get there but when a slot opens.

What you can settle from Yonkers without travelling

Three of the most searched Philippine procedures in the United States are not consular procedures at all:

  • PSA documents, the security-paper certificates everything else depends on, are ordered online and shipped internationally.
  • Documents signed by a US notary or issued by a US authority need a state apostille, not a consular stamp. The consulate has no role in that chain.
  • For an NBI clearance the whole file travels by mail, and the NBI accepts fingerprints taken by a consulate or by a police station.

What does require appearing in person is your biometrics for a passport and the oath of allegiance. A special power of attorney can be signed before a consular officer or before a local notary and then apostilled, according to the notarial page of the Chicago consulate.
