Good day everyone. Im just new here, my girlfriend and I are planning to get married this July. I have some concerns prior to completing our application. I am planning to send the application this September.
1. Her passport will expire on May 2016, ano po ang mas magandang gawin, i renew na yung passport before application or isend na yung application and then update the CIC regarding passport renewal?
2. If we are going to renew her passport, the earliest appointment we could get is Aug 2016 pa. Ang concern ko ay: pag kinasal kami ng july, (months ang hihintayin for nso marriage cert which is requirement to change name & status) pag nirenew namin yung passport nya, which is august, single and maiden name nya pa din yung nakalagay sa passport nya dahil wala pa kaming copy ng nso marriage certificate. May kaso po ba yung maiden name at status sa passport, kasi baka makita ng CIC na we got married on july but nung nagrenew ng passport ay di binago yung surname at status nya?
I am staying in the Philiipines for just one month so we aim to finish everything on that timespan. Then as soon as I get back here in Canada isesend ko na yung application namin. Salamat po sa makakasagot ng mga tanong ko. God bless us all sa ating application.
