Hello Everyone!
I am new to this forum/site. I find it helpful, that's why I decided to join.
Last 7th of May, my husband submitted all necessary documents (Forms,NBI clearance, Marriage certificate, birth certificate, Cenomar, Medical paper, bunch of pictures and other supporting documents that will prove our relationship is genuine) and 17th of June he received a letter saying he does qualify to sponsor me and they are submitting the package to Manila (visa office)...now we are just waiting what will happen next.
We think that by first week or second week of July I might get a letter for Passport Request. We wonder if we could send the passport to Visa Office using fast courier (LBC)? ..we think that's the wisest thing to do, rather than I will drop it myself as I'm far from Manila (I'm from Leyte). Any of you thinks if we could possibly do that?..is it safe?
I know someone who got her visa on Sept 02,2009, she insisted that I had to go personally in Manila as I need to fill up additional history (march 2010-June 2010) on one of the forms, I find it unnecessary as I have filled up the forms properly including history from when I was 18y.o to March 2010. She also said that I have to provide other document (Certificate of Marriage), I thought it's the same as Marriage Certificate,so I don't need to submit is as I have submitted our Marriage Certificate (issued by NSO), but she said it's different. So I'm confused..if anyone can let me know about possible additional requirements (or any opinion that could enlighten me), I would really appreciate it.
Thanks and Good Luck to all.
