marriage contract from the NSO

[sparky]

Interesting to note that YOUR wife and MINE share the same christian name!

... this NSO requirement is a pain in the ! Sometimes getting the marriage certificate authorised in this way, seems to take even longer than having the actual spouse visa processed! And I understand that the blame for the hold-up can quite often be laid at the "feet" of the Catholic Chuch ... which has a tendency to issue certificates rather more intermittenly - and in bulk - as opposed to, say when the ceremony is a Civil one conducted by a judge, and the record passed to the local Municipal Registrar for onward transmission up the line to the National Statistics Office in Manila.

Hope you don't have too long to wait.

we must both have good taste

we had a civil ceremony so i thought we would have got it by now (ish )

due to my work and her being in the sticks its not easy keeping in touch by text - i just want her over here as we have important baby making business to attend to

We did too ... to avoid the delay I mentioned in my previous post ... having been married on December 8, 2008. Our NSO-verified certificate became available on 19 January, 2009 ... just in time for my wife to lodge her visa application with VFS the following morning.

Hi sparky,

It took Rochelyn a couple of months to get the NSO certificate.
It was much longer to get than the Visa for us.

The NSO seems to wind many people up.

It will come.

Make sure you make about 4 copies, they will come in handy.

Even so ... that's STILL too long to wait, IMO. Good luck with the visa application.
