When it asks for current location on the application does it mean my home address back home or the hotel I’m staying in in the Philippines?
Answer summary
When filling out a visa application from the Philippines, you should indicate your current physical location, which is the address of the hotel or temporary accommodation you are staying in, rather than your home address. This is important for proving your presence in the area of the embassy. Documents like your hotel booking or a passport stamp may also be required to verify your stay.

You need to prove that you are in the area of the embassy where you are applying. So anything from a passport stamp to a hotel booking can work, and they can still ask for further proof during the process.

You formally don’t need to prove any adress in the Philippines, only current location under jurisdiction of the actual foreign mission. Use your stamp into the Philippines, boarding card and receipt from your hotel.

It means your current physical location at the time of application. So use the address where you are staying in the Philippines (hotel or temporary accommodation), not your home address back home.
