Hi guys,
I have an update on this.
I'm a long way off applying for a visa - this is gonna be a long road methinks. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif[/img]
I have finnally got my Mrs to get off her ass and try and sort out her paper-work (she does have 3 kids to look after) anyway as you can see from earlier in this post basically my girl has a birth cert that says BABY GIRL!!! and not her name.
So she went to Manila yesterday to investigate how this can be fixed "City Hall" told her to go and see a laywer who said that she will need to pay 80,000 pesoes and it can take up to 6 months.
Here situation is different in that it's not an amendment but rather a new entry - what a nightmare 800 notes plus six months for a birth cert!!!!!!! [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yikes.gif[/img]
Anybody got any experience of this - do you think the lawyer is taking her for a ride or will i just have to pay up and let her get on with it.
Any ideas ?????

There must be another way - tell the Mrs to ask at the NSO - they are the ones in charge of birth certificates, maybe they will have a better idea of how to get this sorted.
