My wife hasn't had a Philippine passport ever since they cancelled it when she did her Oath Taking at the Embassy.
Whenever we visit Philippines she uses her British Passport, and uses her Citizenship Certificate to prove she is Filipina.
We always get BB stamped for 1 year.

I think she's still got the grumps since they took her old passport and cancelled it infront of her without explaining what they were doing.
Do be aware that the Phils Embassy will do that. If you have shorterm travel plans better to secure a British passport first so that at least you have a travel document.

I think my concern is if there could be a complication having a UK passport in one name and getting the phillipine authorities to do the oath taking/issue another passport in her old name.
Yes, I would share that concern.
