Only one person at the time during all procedures in Manila. Their excuse is; room too small
What they are afraid of is of course that the employee will not have the same power at hand if there was a person who took care of the applicants rights and could kick some
The consulate in Cebu is much better but unfortunally wifey lives too far from there
