DS-11 in Philippines

[Roberah 1]

I have searched high and low and simply cannot find the definitive 100% correct answers to these questions regarding DS-11 (application for U.S. passport):

#7 Primary Contact Phone Number:

It's a 7 month old child. The phone number to get in contact with his mother is a filipino phone number, yet there is no where on the form to indicate the country of the phone number. Should I put my U.S. phone number, even though me, the wife, and the baby are in the Philippines?

#8: Mailing Address: #17 Permanent Address:

It's a newborn child. Do I put my address in the U.S., or do I put the address where we are living in the Philippines? In the event of putting the mailing address of the child in the Philippines, the boxes are for a US address and I can't put the Philippine address in there, it's not possible. For example, the state. But where it says country, it mentions "if outside the US". It mentions a mailing address and a permanent address. What do I do? Scrunch the values in as best as possible? Provide the information on a separate sheet? Or just use the US information, even though the baby hasn't left the Philippines yet. I simply cannot find any official documentation on this whatsoever.

If you DO know where I can find the exact answers to the above questions in cold hard official print, please point them out to me and I'll eat my words. Otherwise, I'm looking for suggestions as to which values I should use, what I should leave blank, etc. based on your experiences with this.

Thank you very much

If your primary phone # is a filipino # put that. Just include the country code.

You can't fit the address in the PDF copy? Leave it blank, print it and hand write it in. That's what I did.

This is what the instruction on the form is regarding mailing address.

Passport Services will not mail a U.S. passport to a private address outside the United States. If you do not live at the address listed in the "mailing address",

then you must put the name of the person and mark it as "In Care Of" in item # 8. If your mailing address changes prior to receipt of your new passport,

please contact the National Passport Information Center.

If you choose to provide your email address in Item #6 on this application, Passport Services may use that information to contact you in the event there is a

problem with your application or if you need to provide information to us.

Its kind of funny that even though the instructions say that they will not mail to an address outside US, it does give you the option to enter a foreign mailing address. Keep in mind that its the consulate that would be couriering you the passport ( as far as i know). So if you will be at your filipino address until the passport is delivered to you, just put that address in Number 8. You can hand write your province or state.

Permanent address is number 19 and not 17. Are you using the latest form ? Here you put your address of US as this address is your primary abode.

Regarding 7, you can put your US phone number. I dont think its a big deal what number you put in there. They anyways have your filipino numbers in the CRBA application. Hope this helps.
