patently untrue? Misunderstanding? I figured by him saying LOCAL cni, he meant he wanted one issuing from the embassy in Luzon, not that he was taking one with him. Well that's what I assumed from him using the sentence I have quoted. If I am mistaken, sorry, however, I think he plans on getting his cni from the embassy. Also, regards to using a fax or scan of the original CNI, it's a no- go, they have to be the originals. I did however manage to get the marriage licence started by showing the scanned document, so by the time it was ready, the original form had been processed in Luzon and sent back![]()
