AOM is Advisory on Marriages from NSO, its the opposite of CENOMAR. When you ask for CENOMAR from NSO, and they find in their records that u r married, they will give you an AOM. It is in the checklist (country specific guide). Another thing they ask for is Appendix A , i think it is for info on dependents or family members (i think.. im not sure coz i have no PPR yet) yes, these info are given in the IMM forms already but they ask for this still during PPR. and this is different from the appendix a-checklist we have in the country specific forms.

Also I have read cases that they ask for additional proof such as photos BEFORE (old photos) and AFTER wedding coz some send in wedding photos only (and mayUbe little of other forms of evidences) They also ask for baptismal and school records if they see that the applicant has late registration of birth. hope this answers your q, dadaem =)

Thank you peli...So I still need to secure an AOM aside from the Marriage cert that we sent. We have everything except that. And appendix A I will just wait. But we don't have dependents though.

hindi naman sila strict sa ganon. Sa mga electronic storage devices medyo suspicious sila. Pero hindi naman sa imitation bags.

Hi. Anong airline ka nagbook? Nasa website ng mga airlines ang mga dapat at hindi dapat dalhin. :) When I went for vacation and came back, I brought dry goods with me [dried fish, sweets] and put it in my checked luggage. I didn't bring any aerosol sprays (e.g hair sprays). Just refer to your airline's website for further info. :) Usually checked luggages are scanned. When they see something suspicious, saka lang nila papabuksan. Hand carry/carry ons chini-check nila yun. So if you have eletronics [laptops, camera, storage devices] in your hand carry, papalabas nila yun isa isa at idadaan sa scanner.

Me neither. I thought the marriage cert is enough. But then I was talking to my hubby yesterday and told him to get the AOM and a copy of our Marriage cert printed on NSO paper. Coz we just submitted the original copy issued by the Civil Registry.

bawal naman talaga imitation bag kahit saan country.. un lang may mga hindi strict like ng pinas sa canada
hindi naman siguro pero sympre depende pa din un sa mood na nagbabantay sa custom kahit lagpas ka na ng immigration andun lang sila paikot ikot sa baggage area nagmamasid.. as far as i know may bigla na lang lalapit if they see mga designer bag..na kakita nako ng ganun situation pero not in canada sa us ganun..pero super bihira lang mangyari un.. so ayun kung hindi naman talaga halata na fake siguro ok lang.. check in mo na lang kaya mas mabuti na magingat kahit na sabihin na hindi mahigpit sa ganun youll never know kung ano mood nila.. madalas naman nila lapitan mga chinese eh lol

and they do open check-in baggage kahit wala sa harap niyo once na may sticker un na kakaiba naopen un for inspection pero minsan paglabas or pagabot ng card sa nagbabantay pinapaopen sa harap niyo un.. again base lang to sa experience (and nakikita around airport) kase we travel a lot as a family.(single pa ko)
