Loooong wait for NSO Marriage Certificate :-(

[aromulus]

My conscience is clear my dear chap, my eyes never roam now that a certain Filipina is in my life

Only been kidding, mate....

the situation you are in at the moment is terrible, it is the wost that anyone can envisage... In limbo... If such a thing exists....

Unfortunately there little or nothing you can do but wait, and hope for the best.

We waited for nearly 3 months for the darn little piece of paper to be released..
In the meantime I kept faxing/emailing Jet up to date bank balances and salary slips, so that the Embassy would have the latest info.
Our delay was caused by the elections..... All gov buildings and resources were diverted to cope with that....

Now she is here, as no doubt your asawa will be with you soon enough...
Do not despair...

Just be positive...............

Dom,
So do we just wait for this NSO Marriage Certificate?

Dom,

The alternative to waiting would be to keep badgering them..... Like Jet did for ours.

We were fortunate, that one of her cousins worked for NSO in Cebu, and the lady in question kept an eye on things for us.
But to be on the safe side, Jet went to her place every couple of days for "follow-up"....

Don't worry, mate, you will get that piece of fancy paper, and I suggest you ask for a few copies extra.
You don't realize how handy they will become, we already had to use a couple.

Good luck, and cheer up.

Thanks for replying Dom

I am totally cheesed off
Rochelyn has gone back to the LCR and asked someone to phone the NSO in Manila, asked for Electronic endorsement and asked them to "make it fast".
They told her to go back to LCR on 25th, another ten days away.
What happens if it is not there then?
A Filipina I know here in the UK has told me to get Rochelyn to fly to Manila to visit the NSO office and pay a bribe.
The thing is, when do I "jump in" and ask Rochelyn to do this?
Cheers.
