CFO:

ALL exiting required to attend. There have been changes regarding CFO so for sure read through their website.

Update: Please check the schedule of the counseling session before proceeding to CFO because it is country-specific and the slots are limited only to 15 per session (two sessions per day) for Manila and 12 per session (only one session a day) for Cebu. It is on a first-come-first-serve basis.

Required documents & "OTHER DOCUMENTS" they ask for at CFO: copies of; CENOMAR, certified birth certificate, bio page of passport, visa page from passport, pictures together. From USC (copies of) - bio page of passport, birth certificate, divorce decree (if been married before) are the most common requests. The "other documents" clause can be ANYTHING with those nit-wits at CFO.

** From the Family Code of the Philippines: it's 21-25 years old for advice and 18-21 years old for consent. (Some are posted on VJ that they were not asked for this, yet others have been asked, so be prepared)

Art. 14. In case either or both of the contracting parties, not having been emancipated by a previous marriage, are between the ages of eighteen and twenty-one, they shall, in addition to the requirements of the preceding articles, exhibit to the local civil registrar, the consent to their marriage of their father, mother, surviving parent or guardian, or persons having legal charge of them, in the order mentioned. Such consent shall be manifested in writing by the interested party, who personally appears before the proper local civil registrar, or in the form of an affidavit made in the presence of two witnesses and attested before any official authorized by law to administer oaths. The personal manifestation shall be recorded in both applications for marriage license, and the affidavit, if one is executed instead, shall be attached to said applications. (61a)

Art. 15. Any contracting party between the age of twenty-one and twenty-five shall be obliged to ask their parents or guardian for advice upon the intended marriage. If they do not obtain such advice, or if it be unfavorable, the marriage license shall not be issued till after three months following the completion of the publication of the application therefor.A sworn statement by the contracting parties to the effect that such advice has been sought,together with the written advice given, if any, shall be attached to the application for marriage license. Should the parents or guardian refuse to give any advice, this fact shall be stated in the sworn statement.

hi lemajeca.. Just log-in to their site.. https://web08.magicjack.com/my/login.html then click on "ACCOUNT" then click on "CONTACT and CALL LOGS" then click "SHOW CALL LOGS" .. I have checked today that the call logs they are giving is from dec2012- present. Try to contact their customer service if they can still retrieve all your call logs. I didn't export it to the excel, i printed it from the site so that it will show that it is my account and the call logs came from the MJ site.. =)

thanks for the reply. i actually tried chatting with their customer service but the agent said that before i can have access to all my call logs, i need to ask an attorney or a police or a court representative to ask these call logs from them. this is really crazy. :'( and on the website they're not really showing the complete logs. i noticed it. eve for a month call. my husband and i talks everyday and many times a day. did you try to request it from them or every month you would get print screens... i wish i did it before.

wow! really? IN my case, i was able to retrieve my call logs last 2011, the site before was different and showed all my call logs, so i was able to print it,i started to use magicjack by the year 2010.

During my interview, both the filipino and american consuls did not ask for our telephone bills, but anyway just be prepared for it just in case they will ask it. My fiance provided me his telephone bills from 2009 - 2012, your husband can do that too..=)

hi...I didn't print our emails because we only had few emails and skype conversations, we talk over the phone/ video chat most of the times. A friend of mine printed all their emails and conversations but the consuls didn't ask for it.. =)
