I can understand your frustrations, but I always advise readers at this forum not to use the services of a Fixer the guy you asked to complete the paperwork for you simply took your money and did not do anything that would have helped you.

Fixers always give off the impression that somehow they have influence with the officials or NSO or BIR or BCI or other organization that is run by government, some Fixers can speed up the process, but often their promises don't materialize, now look what has happened, your paperwork is not correct, and no record of your marriage.

You need this like a hole in the head.

The marriage license is not required for entry clearance, only the NSO marriage contract duly signed and authenticated by the Office of National Statistics.

Well if it means waiting until March next year, then why not if it puts the situation in the perspective of you getting full entry clearance without let or hindrance.

I always advise readers to ensure their paperwork is correct, if it is not, the entry clearance team will throw it out.

Best of Luck.

I echo what Kuya Pete says, don't pay fixers for anything.

Back in 2004, Elsa couldn't start an application for a visa because her birth certificate was incorrect, that took 8 months to sort out, and many times, so called "fixers" offered to do it all for a fee, but she correctly refused each time. It took 8 months to sort it out, but at least we both know its all been done properly and according to rules and regulations of Philippines, and there will be no comeback later.

I can vouch for what Peter writes my Wife saw one young girl who had got married but did not have the correct paperwork the cfo were not impressed from what my Wife saw and if they had tried to apply they would have had loads of problems possibly even legal problems due to supplying false paperwork. The husband had not got his paperwork from the uk to show he is free to marry and defintely not checked and converted to the correct format for the phill authorities by the british embassy in phill.

Like the others advise get it sorted whatever it costs in time and money it will be worth it.
