It is true that there needs to be a 21-day waiting period before he can convert that CNI to Legal Capacity. When Elsa and I married, my CNI was obtained here in the UK and it was converted to a Legal Capacity upon my arrival in Philippines.
If he is living in HK, then yes, I would have thought it would be better if he got the CNI from the British Embassy there and change that to Legal Capacity when he arrives in Manila.
I must point out that the CNI is for him, in his name, so sending it to you would be pointless anyway, as he would need to go to the British Embassy Manila to get the CNI converted to Legal Capacity once the 21 days is up. He will need to go to the Consular Section with his passport and a fee to convert the CNI to Legal Capacity.
Hope this makes sense, let us know how you get on.
