Oppsss! Sorry. Thank you Jo&John for pointing out the omission.

I've put a number before the names now so it would be easier to spot if anything is amiss. Gee, I've been doing this list for more than a year now and I've grown old and grey and my eyes are starting to play tricks on me. :rolleyes:

Annie19, where are you? We need feedback please on the result of your interview. Waiting to hear from sillygirl, tomnjas and titakey.

Sheriff, you've associated yourself with Filipinos a lot so consider yourself crocked too. :lol::lol::lol:

Yeah, I hate travel tax. I don't understand why our government needs to tax us for the privilege to travel. Actually it was imposed by Marcos a long time ago. He thought that if Filipinos could afford to travel, then we can afford to pay travel tax. Down with taxes!!! :protest::ranting:

Sheriff Uling, your sense of humor really cracks me up. I think I figured out what Negoy means but I'm not writing it here. Other terms of endearment that we Flips (Filipinos) use are "Nog-Nog" (my favorite), "Egoy", "Nogie Boy", and now "Uling". :lol:

StarProg,

Sorry to be a devil's advocate but I am sure there must have been a miscommunication here. The priest cannot issue a marriage license. You have to secure this from the Local Civil Registrar. You cannot be married without a valid license. The license number will be part of your marriage certificate.

Philippine law prescribes a ten-day waiting period from the filing of the Application to the issuance of the marriage license. Is it possible that what the priest asked you to fill up and sign was the "draft" of the marriage certificate so that the parish can type it up for the ceremony? The fact that there was no ceremony is also questionable. The marriage has to be solemnized or you could be facing a marriage that can be declared null and void "ab initio" (from the very beginning) due to this technicality.

Please, please double check your marriage license or marriage certificate, whatever it is you have there. Go to the LCR and bring the documents that the priest gave you and show it to the LCR and ask for guidance. I don't want you to make any mistakes StarProg as you've waited long enough. There was also one VJ poster who married less than ten days after license application was issued and had to re-do the marriage thing again.

Please read carefully below the Philippine law and procedures for getting married. US Embassy says the same thing too.

Hi PW, and thanks,

I was concerned about this too, so I did check everything carefully. The priest did not actually issue the marriage license, it was signed by the local registrar officer. But the priest filled out the information. The marriage certificate also reflects this. And it was predated, so as far as anyone can tell there was a 10 day waiting period, plus 2 days between issuance of license and certificate. The registered copy of the certificate is dated the same day as the marriage. I can't find any abnormalities in the paperwork.

There are certain advantages to getting married in a small town. As for no ceremony, well, the priest did ask us certain questions. Who's to say we didn't have a ceremony? It was a civil wedding. I think we're covered. I guess we'll know for sure in 9-12 months, hopefully.

Thanks for the concerns.

Gary and Fely

Upon further thoughts and looking over all the papers, I realized that the wedding certificate said our license was issued on Aug. 28th, but my passport said I arrived in the Philippines on Aug. 29th. Big WHOOPS! Sooooo, we went back to town after the official 10 day wait, received a totally legal wedding license, and redid the marriage. Now everything is proper and legal.

Annie19, where are you? We need feedback please on the result of your interview. Waiting to hear from sillygirl, tomnjas and titakey.

Hi! I had the unbelivable luck of having the strongest typhoon to hit Manila in 11yrs on my interview day. :blink:

My fiance and I went there yesterday, the 28th, for my interview and they told us to come back today. When we came back this morning, the guards told us to call the 1-909 number to get our new appointment date. According to the guard, the embassy's computers got damaged during the typhoon. :crying::crying::crying::crying::angry:

I got rescheduled for Oct. 11. :clock:

Phil-Am POST K1 NOA2 Info…

(1). The National Visa Center (NVC) number is within my signature. NVC assigns your case number once your case is approved (NOA2). They also may perform a preliminary background check from what I’ve read then forwards your package/case to the Manila Embassy. This process usually takes anywhere from 14 – 30 days.

(2). Packet 4 (Manila Embassy) link is within my signature (acquired from the Manila Embassy website which gives directions on what documents are required by the beneficiary for the visa interview). The Manila Embassy number is within my signature. NOTE: If you dial 0 for the operator, ask for the Immigrant Visa Unit. The average interview is assigned approximately 120 – 150 days from the receipt of your package from the NVC.

(3).The Department of State (DOS) number is within my signature. After your case is approved (NOA2) and reaches the Manila Embassy, you may call DOS instead on the Manila Embassy to obtain status of your case and make inquiries concerning your interview date. NOTE: DOS has no direct participation in the K1 process.

(4). The Visa Interview Appointments website is within my signature. This is where you can check to see if a visa interview has been scheduled for your case. It is presumed that the website is now the substitution for the visa appointment worksheet/list the Manila Embassy used in the past.

(5). St. Luke’s Extension Clinic (SLEC) information is within my signature. SLEC is where the beneficiary goes to take the medical exam and vaccination. The process takes two days. Day 1 is the medical exam and Day 2 is the vaccination.

(6). The DELBROS website is within my signature. DELBROS is the company responsible for delivering the beneficiary’s Visa and POE information. The DELBROS delivery fee is paid subsequent to the beneficiary’s visa interview at the Manila Embassy. Per the Manila Embassy website, the current delivery fee/time is as follows:

* Metro Manila Areas, 135 Philippine Pesos, Delivered one (1) to three (3) business days after release of visaed passport to the courier

* Provincial Key Cities (ex. Cebu City, Davao City, etc.) 165 Philippine Pesos; Delivered three (3) to five (5) business days after release of visaed passport to the courier

* Outside Provincial Key Cities, (ex. Capiz, Leyte, Bukidnon, etc.), Cost depends on area/location, Delivered five (5) to seven (7) business days after release of visaed passport to the courier

NOTE: Per the DELBROS staff, the Manila Embassy normally takes three (3) business days to release the visaed passport, which is NOT included in the deliver times above.

(7). CFO Guidance and Counseling Seminars are held in Manila and Cebu, with the corresponding links within my signature. The beneficiary may attend whichever location is more convenient. "Per Republic Act 8239 and Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) Order 28-94, Filipinos proceeding abroad as fiancé(e)s and spouses of foreign nationals are required to attend the CFO's guidance and counseling programs... " For more info (CLICK HERE). NOTE: As far as I know, this requirement is not stated within the K1 packet. However, the beneficiary can NOT travel without receiving the Guidance and Counseling Certificate and subsequent CFO stamp on the visa.

(8). The I-94 Arrival / Departure Form is within my signature. Foreigners (beneficiaries) complete the I-94 and the Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officer stamps the applicant’s arrival and departure portions at the Port of Entry (POE) when entering the States. You will need this for the Adjustment of Status process. NOTE: Even though it’s simple, I have supplied this so you will know what it looks like and what is required to be filled out.

Cheers!!!

Sheriff Uling

NOTE: Please let me know if there are any suggestions. I have also correlated the numbers above to my signature.

if someone needs some tips in arranging documents for the K1 interview..here is the link...

Sheriff Uling, your sense of humor really cracks me up. I think I figured out what Negoy means but I'm not writing it here. Other terms of endearment that we Flips (Filipinos) use are "Nog-Nog" (my favorite), "Egoy", "Nogie Boy", and now "Uling". :lol:

Sillygirl - Sorry to know about your delay... The typhoon was pretty bad. My fiancée is not expected to have electricity until Monday. The Phil was hit pretty hard this time around.
