hi, i'll share with u what we did.
my husband only stayed for 21 days only, actually he was supposed to stay for less than that, he just extended it. when i picked him up at NAIA on jan 13 '11, we went straight to canadian embassy to get his legal capacity. we arrived there 1pm, there was no line at all so we were done in 30mins. after that we went straight to binan laguna city hall to apply for the marriage license. we were told that it will be released jan 26 '11 (10 business days). we had our civil wedding on the same day of the release.

please check canadian embassy website coz im not sure if you can get legal capacity everyday so better to check it out first. also, have your marriage cert endorsed para mbilis ang release ng NSO. coz normally, it will take 3mos or so but if its endorsed you can get it in a month or less. when you request for the NSO copy, also request for Advisory on Marriage. try to get at least 2 copies of both coz sometimes CEM will ask again.

btw, never try to get a marriage license without waiting for 10 days coz embassy knows about the 10 day waiting and since your spouse' arrival is reflected in his passport it will create problem.

goodluck on your upcoming wedding.
Hi thanks for the input. My fiance is coming on oct. 22 this year and he'll stay until nov.6 lang po. Problem ko kung makakakuha ba kami ng marriage license kasi we will start processing on the 23rd of oct, since gabi ang dating niya ng 22, the 10th day would fall on nov. 1 and it's holiday here... then and working day would resume na nov. 5 which is monday... The 10 days processing period ba includes the holidays, and sat and sunday... btw sa manila city hall kami kukuha.. thanks so much

Ask ko lng po sa mga nakakaalam kc may nabasa akong blog na pwede daw mag-apply ng marriage license (pa-notarize ung application form) sa Philippine Consulate dito sa Canada then padala ko na lang sa fiancé ko sa Pinas para tumakbo na yung 10-day waiting period doon, para pag-uwi ko ng Pinas availabale na yung marriage license namin. Paki-sagot lang po sa mga nakakaalam. Thanks po!
[/quote

Hi jadeon, yun po yun sinasabi ko, pwede naman yun isang party lang ang mag ayos ng license niyo, basta naprimahan mo yun form na sya mong ibabalik papuntang pinas, para tumakbo na yun 10 days posting nila, then pagbalik mo saka kayo pipirma dun sa harap ng pinakahead ng LCR ng city para marelease na ang license.. gagawin nio na lang e seminar kung gusto niyo man attendan if kung hindi e pwede naman bayadan.. ;)

Maraming salamat po sa mga reply nyo! Hi Cchin, ang pagkakaalam ko po personal dapat ang pag-apply ng marriage license, correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks po JollyPao sa pag-share ng experience mo. Tama nester magkakaproblema nga po kami sa pag-apply ng PR nya. Mas maaga na lang ako uuwi ng Pinas para wala nang maging problema.
Pwede po na ayusin ng kabilang party yan license as long as nakapirma ka sa license at pa stampan mo sa consulate jan at ibalik sa pinas, paratumakbo yun 10 days posting ng License bago pa kayo umuwi, paguwi mo pagpunta niyo munisipyo dun nlng kayo magpipirmahan dalawa kasama yun officer na mag approved ng license nio..yun yun kelangan ng personal appearance mo, di ka na need umuwi ng matagal kung yan option na yan, sana nakatulong ako pero 100% sure po ako sa idea na sinabi sayo..ty :D

Just fill up the IMM1017 form, then magdala ka ng mga passport size pictures mo, sa Comprehensive Pulmonary Clinic ka na magpa medical kasi makukuha mo na at the same day yung copy 2 nung IMM1017 na may pirma na nung DMP (Designated Medical Practitioner) para ma send mo na agad :)

May tanong lang po sana ako sa inyo. I just recently got my PR card. I'm planning to go back to the Philippines to get married and to sponsor my future husband. The waiting period for the releasing of marriage license in the Philippines is 10 working days. However, I'll be arriving there less than 10 days before our wedding date. I was told to get an Affidavit of Cohabitation in lieu of the marriage contract. Is it advisable to get an Affidavit of Cohabitation instead of the marriage contract? Wouldn't the CIC think that we were common-law partners before I landed? Wouldn't that be a problem when the time comes to sponsor him? I'll appreciate all your feedbacks and comments. Baka magka-problema ako kapag i-sponsor ko na sya.

magkakaproblema ka po talaga. Take the normal route. That license can be declared null and void because the notarial/sworn statement is spurious/fake dahil wala ka during the filing. Cohabitation means nagsama kayo, so even your PR application declaration may be questioned or challenged.
Oo Nester ikaw na! daig mo pa si google sa dami mong alam..know what? kahit wala sya sa filing ng License niya basta napirmahan niya at dumaan sa consulate dun pede na ayusin ng bf niya dito, LEGAL documents na yun! pa null and void ka pa dyan, there is no such thing as null and void kung dinaan mo sa black and white..parang SPA na yun representative mo lang ang needed to attend! Minsan wag na tayo sumagot sa mga ask ng iba na hindi tayo sure at nagmamarunong lang, imbes makatulong tayo e nakakadagdag lang ng lito..Sabihin mong tama ka, wala na ko paniniwalaan sa forum nato :mad:

NOTE**** Ipafile lang.. kailangan lang tumakbo ng 10 posting days ng license..may mga pipirmahan pa sila dalawa pagdating niya dun mismo sa officer ng civil registry at pipirma din yun officer na yun sa license nila saka pa irelease yun..so ano ang mali dun? nandito na sya saka marelease diba? Anyway ok ka naman sa English Nester period! ;D

Tama naman yun sis. Ang hindi lang kasi maganda is kung pano mo dineliver ang sagot mo. I dont know kung nabasa mo mga posts niya sa feb batch. But anyway we are all here to help each other and asks questions if there's any. Sana lang kung sasagot tayo eh hindi yung bitter ang dating At andun padin ang respect yun lang naman. :)

Hi jadeon! Kailan ba ang uwi mo? pwede naman na ipadala sayo ng bf mo yun license form na sya mong pipirmahan, then ipadala mo pabalik sa Pinas para sya na magayos nun License nio before ka pa makauwi tumakbo na yun 10 working days posting nila (if ever may oras ka pa). Affidavit of cohabitation na ipresent mo sa LCR dito para di nio na kelangan ng License yun ba ang ibig mo sabihin?(baka mali ako ng pagintindi)...If ever tama pagkaintindi ko 5 years dapat kayo nagsama para di nio na need ng license. ;)

I understand you sis. Iba kasi talaga ang mga sagot at sinasabi niya eh so can't blame u kc nagrereact ka lang naman sa kung ano nabasa mo. Just like i did sa sinabi niya lalo na yung about sa Diyos. Sana lang maisip niya na yun.

Ako nga rude yon sagot nyo sa akin doon..hindi nyo accept 9 month is nine month it doesn’t mean kasi nine month na ako gusto kona kayo nine months na lahat its just a possibility.Hindi ako author sa website..Sinabihan nyo pa ako negative vibes ako doon tama ba yon.Umalis na ako para akong sakit nga nakakahawa.Hanggang ngayon pinagtawanan nyo pa ako kasi umabot ako nine months hindi ko rin ginusto ito..Ayaw ko ng opinion bakit ako umabot ng 9 months sumagot lng ako sa question nya when it starts the 9 month and it could be possible..
Very immature.Pinagmalake nyo pa doon sa feb . Pinagtanggol lng ako nester doon kasi sinabi nyo negative vibes na ako doon..

Basta yon sa amin marriage my hubby just here for 3 weeks and that time naka book na lahat venue church priest..he was here Saturday the seminar will be Wednesday..Sabi ko sa civil registrar ipa sked na kami ng marriage license seminar ayaw nila ako I sked if di nila kita ang lalake sa filing so doon at wedneday pa kami maaga para kami ma sked on that day seminar.. so na waste ang 3 days naming.. so dapat sked naming sa wed was Nov.20 so na move Nov.23 hubby go home Nov.25..Buti nalang puede puede na move yon mga catering. Pero na change lng sa amin ang pare kasi may sked na iba yon pare at 1st.

May isa nga doon sa civil registry na babae na sabi pa nya we just paid 10k hindi na kami kailangan ng seminar hindi na kailangan hsband ko ditto at 1st..sinabi ko yon sa filing unintentionally kasi ayaw nga nila kapag wala ang lalake sa filin..Ah yon sinibak yon empliyado nila.hindi daw yon puede
