PhilippinesFYI on Cenomar
this is CEMAR (CERT OF MARRIAGE)



and this is CENOMAR ( CERT OF NO MARRIAGE)



did you see the difference? kung meron ka mang narinig na hindi hinanapan ng CEMAR stupid yung pre screener at pinalusot sya required yan sa interview mo FYI: mas mahigpit ang pre screen kesa sa CO mas maganda na yung meron ka kahit nde man nila hingin sayo kesa nman hingin sayo tpos wla ka naman mabigay baka madelay pa visa mo imbes na pink slip e blue/white slip (additional docs) mkuha mo

QUOTE (charlie&pam @ Oct 28 2009, 09:39 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Just a question. I look at the USCIS website everyday (like most of us waiting) hoping to see that it has been touched!!!!! .....I was excited when they first got it since it was touched 3 times in the first 9 days they have had it.....Now it has been more than a month since the last time it was touched. I know this is probably normal but I am just getting worried.....Is anyone else haveing the same issue with California service center because I noticed Vermont is still pumping them out within a months time.


we dont get touched until we got approved so dont worry wink.gif

I am a USC and i just submitted docs to the NVC and waiting for case to be completed and eventually interview date for my mom. my question is, when my mom is scheduled for medical exam at St lukes is she going to pay her medical fee there in Manila? or the medical fee was already included in the $400 fee I paid to NVC?


its not included in your $400 that you paid to NVC St. Luke's Medical Center Extension Clinic (SLMCEC) in Manila, the Embassy's accredited medical facility, charged U.S. $213.35 for adults (15 years and older) and U.S. $185.35 for children (under 15 years of age) for the medical examination fees. SLMCEC does not accept credit card or dollar payments. The fees must be paid in Philippine pesos at the prevailing exchange rate.

Thank you DianneWalgreens =) that was a real fast response.

I will get a copy of that..

What I only have for now is a Marriage certificate authenticated by NSO.. I thought that will suffice.

Anyway, better to be prepared and bring all than be denied.hehe!

Thanks very much.

One last question..If I will go at NSO and request for it, its gonna take me 5 working days to get it?
that's how they are eh...

PhilippinesCENOMAR needed in consul interview? (K3 visa)
QUOTE (Llyne @ Nov 6 2009, 09:23 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Hey yah fellas!! hear yeah! hear yeah!!

I would just like to know if I need to bring a copy of my CENOMAR - Certificate of No Marriage
during my Interview @ US Embassy Manila.

1. Do you think CENOMAR is still needed eventhough you already have a marriage certificate? Considering that these two docs/certifications both came from the same office - National Statistics Office.

2. I do not have a CENOMAR anymore, as I gave it to the Local Registrar Office, when we applied for marriage,

3. Morever, if I will apply or ask for CENOMAR at NSO, what will appear is negative, since I'm already married. What will show there is that I'm already married and to whom I was married.

People, I need your views about this..I'm on a K3 visa.

Any suggestion is well appreciated.


you will need a CENMAR since you were already married like this
