DELBROS VERIFICATION...

[RDDIXON 0]

My VJ's family I have a name changed..... the story goes like this....

My name in Civil Registrar is Rosalie and in NSO is Maruja. I knew this when I started processing my passport last year. NSO told me to go to Civil Registrar and ask how to change my name to Rosalie, because I have used Rosalie since I was a kid. The Civil Registrar's Office told me what I needed to do and too make a long story short, I have already changed my name to Rosalie nearly a year ago.

My fiance used Rosalie on the K1 visa application which is correct, God bless him!

My question is this: How do I get Delbros to verify both names? I'm afraid that Delbros will only verify Rosalie, but I've not been Rosalie for very long. The embassy could say: Rosalie has been verified, but the name "Maruja" also needs to be verified.

Take the police clearance as an example, if Delbros verifies that Rosalie has no criminal records, however doesn't check Maruja, the Embassy could say that Maruja needs to be verified too; because maybe I robbed a bank and killed the guards when I was Maruja, ya know?. haha! I didn't, but they could say that by changing my name, it hides my past. I just want to get Delbros to verify both names.

By the way, I did get CENOMAR, NBI and Police Clearances in both names. I didn't want the Embassy saying, you have a CENOMAR in Rosalie's name, how do we not know that Maruja was ever married?

My VJ family, I want to get your opinion regarding this matter. All of your opinions are very appreciated. .

Thank you so much.

GOD BLESS US ALL.

ask the civil registrar if they already forwarded your name as "rosalie" in the NSO, if they do, ask for BC in NSO then. Go, to NSO bring the papers that will prove that your name was already changed to rosalie. that is just my opinion.

goodluck!

The Embassy should only honor the name that appeared on your NSO BC. You should only have one identity, not two. Since you have been using Rosalie from when you were a kid, then, that should be your real identity and not Maruja because you have never used Maruja in your other public records (school record, employment, etc.) You said that you have done what the Civil Registrar asked you to do to change the name which appeared on your NSO record, have you checked NSO again and see if they changed it? NSO BC is what the USEM required, so be sure you have the correct name on it which is "Rosalie."

Yes, right you got documents for both Rosalie and Maruja... But I suggest that use Rosalie in forwarding your name to Delbros, since you said name change has granted already... This is no difference from correcting typo errors in BC, of course, you will use the one which is correct (the one you are using) you won't specify the "other" spelling...

To clarify, "Rosalie" is used on every bit of paper relating our immigration process. There really is no mention of Maruja other than the documents involving the legal name change. This name change documents were included with the I-129F.

I really don't fully understand the DV process. Delbros verifies documents that the Embassy doesn't have yet? I mean, Rosalie is bringing documents to the Embassy, the Embassy hasn't seen her documents yet Delbros is able to verify them? It seems backwards. It seems Delbros should have in-hand what Rosalie submitted, then verify. Know what I mean? Maybe it should not be called "document verification?"

What we are concerned about is this scenario: Rosalie submits a police report with her current name and the CO says to her: you've only been Rosalie for nearly a year so we need to verify that Maruja didn't commit any crimes. Rosalie has a police clearance in Maruja's name too, but if Delbros doesn't know to verify the clearance in Maruja's name, will the Embassy (CO) be okay with this.

I might be taking the term "document verification" too literally. Yes or No... ??

^^Rosalie said she's been using the name "Rosalie" since she was a kid... this means, from then on, she's ROSALIE... This is the ground why the LCR and/or NSO granted her petition to change name...

This is the same case as mine, though my case is different, I had typo error (without knowing) since the copy of BC we have is the one that I'm using since I started to go to school... You will just prove to LCR or NSO that you have been using that name/with that spelling all your life... This is why you will submit a lot of documents when submitting the petition to correct the typo error or change name, like school records, baptismal cert, GSIS/SSS record of remittance (from the company), and etc.. that will prove it.

So happen that it's just been a year when the petition for change name has granted but it doesn't mean that she's only Rosalie for mere a year

if they(the proper authorities) have reached the final decision for you to legally use rosalie. then so be it. wla na si maruja..

Hi sis ROSALIE!!! That happened to me too, just discovered March of this year when I applied for a passport for the first time. My name in my original BC is MARY JETT, but in NSO copy it's NARI JETT. The DFA said that I could temporarily use NARI JETT if im in a hurry for the passport but I didnt allow them so, so I went to our Local Civil Registrar and have it corrected and to make the long story short, during my interview, the pre screener asked for my SECPA BC -of course my SECPA BC has an annotation and she asked if I have been using NARI JETT or used NARI JETT once in my life and i told her NEVER, because my original BC is MARY JETT and gave her the Certified True Copy of my BC from our Local Civil Registrar's Office,even showed her the Original too and she said "ay oo nga noh". I only had One Cenomar , one NBI, one Police Clearance (but they never asked me), one Annotated BC SECPA Copy and once Certified true photocopy of my BC from LCR-all named MARY JETT, i paid Delbros once and after about two weeks my visa was done reviewing by my CO. I dont know the requirements now, because from what I've read from the post of our co-member here who was interviewed last Oct 28, USEM is giving excuses and asking for more more requirements just to delay VISAS. HHHAAAYYYYY

Hi Rosalie! Delbros does not do the document verification per se. It is only a collecting agent and the one that sends the request by USEM for document verification to the NSO. So basically, it is the NSO that does the document verification by issuing another set of documents that are the same as what you have submitted to the Embassy or NVC for that matter.

With regard to your change of name, the controlling document will be the amended BC, i.e., the one that states that your name is Rosalie as changed. There will just be an annotation or remarks on the side that such a BC was amended per court order blah, blah. Even if you have submitted a copy of this to the USEM before orduring your interview, the NSO will again be issuing another copy if you will be undergoing the DV. If you won't be, then the BC, CENMAR and others issued by the NSO may be enough.

You are wise in getting NBI and police clearances for both Rosalie and Maruja. Good luck!
