JEFFandJANET said:Hello, I will try to answer. I hope I understand your situation because I don't really speak tagalog. Canadian marrying a Filipino. I don't think Canadian can get "legal capacity to marry" from Cebu because the Cebu office is not an actual embassy. You can call them to check if possible but I doubt it. Since most international flights go through Manila to get to Cebu, have the Canadian stop in Manila to go embassy. Go first thing in the morning to avoid long line ups. Allow for at least 4 hours to be safe. You receive the "legal capacity to marry" on the same day. I did this, arrived in Manila early in the morning, went to embassy for 8 AM opening, got back to the airport before noon same day for my flight to Davao. Filipino partner needs to get "CENOMAR" from NSO. If Filipino is female under 25 I think you may need to attend a seminar which is usually at city hall. Good luck and congratulations on engagement.

I think it will be best for us to get the Legal Capacity to Marry at the Canadian Embassy, Manila because in Cebu you have to make an appointment (i read that from CIC website). And we want to apply for a marriage licence right away because his vacation is only 18 days. I`ll tell my husband to be to get a flight from Vancouver to Manila with an early morning arrival. In the next few months it will be my turn to ask a lot of questions as i prepare our Spousal Application. I thank all the people in this forum for their unselfishness in sharing their knowledge, experiences and support.

Did you have to fill out the application form for PR card? Im preparing na kasi all the documents and forms na kailangan pagdating e.g health insurance and SIN.
Thanks.

Pwede kayong mag inquire pag lampas na kayo sa processing time.. Processing time starts after CEM receive your package and issuance of AOR.![]()
hi, GCS is done monday to friday and its first come first serve basis, better to arrive before 8am. ya, you can stay one day in manila and it will be done in a day.JEFFandJANET said:Hi I am wondering about obtaining the GCC from CFO in Manila. I checked on 2 websites. One site says the seminar is available everyday monday to friday 3 times each day for Canada spousal seminar. Other website says it is only Tuesdays and Fridays for Canadian spousal seminar. Does anyone know what is correct? Also, is it easy to get in this seminar or is it too busy and some are turned away? My wife is in Davao so she will have to fly in. I am hoping we can just do this on our way to Canada by staying one day in Manila. But I don't want to show up on the wrong day or on a day that we are refused because too many people. Does anyone have a comment?
salamat
