CENOMAR (Advisory on Marriages)

[Rinz 0]

Hello guys,

 

I already secured a CENOMAR (Advisory on Marriages) from the PSA. Do I still need to get for my husband (my petitioner)?

 

My scheduled interview will be this April 5.

 

Thank you and appreciate your responses.

Not for the petitioner.  Only for you.

Thanks for your reply, Sir. My husband is a naturalized US Citizen. I am confused if I still need the CENOMAR for him.

NO, even if he is Filipino.  It would not hurt to get it if he's Filipino though.

CENOMAR is required for a petitioner who:

• Was born in the Philippines AND
• Lived in the country for at least one year after turning 18 years old

CENOMAR is actually required for certain Filipino-American petitioners (must have been born in the PH and lived in the PH for at least 1 year after turning 18).

You're welcome!

 

Note that you only need a CENOMAR for your husband if he meets BOTH conditions listed.
