I can only speak of our experience with Singapore and that is the USEM Singapore requires the CENOMAR be sent directly to them. The package you get from Hong Kong Embassy should give you their requirements. Hopefully somebody with direct experience with HK can reply.

From the instructions letter from the Hong Kong embassy:

One part of this process involves obtaining a Certificate of No Marriage Record (CENOMAR). The CENOMAR should be
ordered through the National Statistics Office (NSO) E-census website and sent directly to the
U.S. Consulate General (see the link and directions attached). The $25.00 (USD) fee for this
service should be paid with a credit card issued in the United States. We advise you to work with
the petitioner as you complete the application.

(USEM = U.S. Embassy Manila ;) Don't know the "acronym" for the embassy in Hong Kong )

Thank you #HANK_ for this info.

Maybe its my fault,...i take my cenomar in advance because im thinking if i request it on line then it will take 3-8 weeks(too long)....

Maybe i will just wait for us embassy hk to send me packet before i work for the papers (nothing waste)....

Tnx for helping.....

NSO must send it directly to HK US embassy.yes it will take 3-8 weeks.But there's a way to request it faster thru western union with additional pay that will be delivered in 3-4 days.But if you still have a lot of time 8 weeks is not that long.Once they receive that and your checklist is complete.They will inform you of your interview date.So you cannot hand carry your cenomar.Hope this help.:)
