Hi. If you search for the Departmenr of foreign affairs website then you can apply online and book an appointment and also choose from there the nearest branch to apply for her passport. Just bring all the necessary requirements then if you pay for the fast tract, i think it is roughly Php1200 for an express processing for 7days and Php950 for regular processing which takes up to 15days. I might just apply for the passport of my 2 little boys when we get there in the Philippines as it cost a fortune to get in the Phil embassy and on top of that is the train tickets and other fares...I hope this will help you.

I wish it were that simple.Its easy to apply for the new passport office in CDO but the queues there are unbelievable!

Last time we went they also told us they are not doing fast passports anymore due to there being too many applicants and other excuses so it took a month.
I will look into the online thing though.

Thanks
