Perfect clear and concise information. Great job!
Glad it was helpful, thank you!
why buy when you can rent.
great video hope someone from Denmark can present something like this.
Where you do your immigration processing in the Philippines or the USA?
In the US, but it can be done online. My wife is currently waiting for her spousal visa.. estimated 6 months from now (~1 year total)
Also, never give them your SS#. They asked me for mine and I told them that if you have an affidavit from the Social Security Administration, I will give it to you. A foreign government is not an authorized user of the SS#. Read the back of your card.
I was going to watch some other videos on this topic, but on watching yours, there's no need. So thanks for saving me all that time.
BAM BAM BAM 1, 2, 3, got all the essential information with no dilly dally, and clearly presented. Excellent presentation. Liked, subscribed, and rang that bell.
Thank you!
Hi! Can i ask how did you get a slot for the seminar? Are u the one who needs to book it? I hope i will get a response 😊
Hello, the seminar that we went to was held at the city hall building of the municipality that we submitted our marriage application to. They held seminars every Thursday and we were able to register for the next session. I would advise that you contact your city hall ahead of time to see when they offer their seminars.
@@phillipsinthephilippines thank you for your response.. but can i ask one more question ? 😁😁 you have to wait 10days to release the license yeah? Are weekends counted?
Hi! Thanks you for the info! just wanted to ask do you need any other requirements or documents to get Affidavit in Lieu of Certificate of Legal Capacity to Marry to bring with you at the US Embassy other than scheduling an appointment?
You need to bring your passport and $50 USD (or PHP equivalent) or a credit card to pay. They didn't ask me for any other documentation.
How much did you pay for your officiator?
Our officiator was the mayor of the municipality that we got married in. I don't believe there was any extra fee for him the officiate the wedding, other than the small processing fee that was paid as part of the marriage application process.
Ok..my 2 friends is married to philipino..from the provinces..high chance you get a good wife..Philippines people are happy people n loyal if you don't be unfaithful..I must say if you treat her well n loyal to her..she will go along way with you n they always smiling..when comes to love it's all by luck..all the best to people who found love..cheers

Boracay Island
Thank you very informative
Thank you!!
Very very well done video....thank you!
Thank you!
I have a question sir, how to get an apostille? And affidavit template?
You can get apostille services through your Secretary of State office or through a third party document verification agency. There is a sample affidavit template on the U.S. Embassy website near the bottom under "Other Notary Services" ph.usembassy.gov/services/notarials/
Congratulations
Thank you 😊
Can you please tell me where my friend gets his letter of capacity to marry? He is leaving June 26 and we would like him to have everything he needs, as this is his 4th time going there to see her and would like to get married
Hello, assuming he is from the U.S...the U.S. does not provide a Certificate of Legal Capacity to Marry. Instead he must obtain an Affidavit in Lieu of Certificate of Legal Capacity to Marry. This is obtained by appointment only from either the U.S. Embassy in Manila or the U.S. Consular Agency in Cebu City. To make an appointment, visit either link at the bottom of this webpage: ph.usembassy.gov/services/notarials/#other
@@phillipsinthephilippines thank you. He is from the U.S . Is the cenomar the same thing?
@@SallyRichards-pj3rk No they are different. CENOMAR is a separate document that proves that he has not been married before in the Philippines. Both he and his fiance will need to get their CENOMAR at the local Philippines Statistics Authority (PSA) office when he gets to the Philippines. They will need to make appointments for this as well. crs-appointment.psahelpline.ph/
@@phillipsinthephilippines thank you. One more question, does he get the affidavit right away ? Or does he have to wait?
I really can’t tell you how much I appreciate your help. I have been calling the embassy and everything and get no where. Thank you so much
Hello. This is very helpful information. I have a couple questions for my friend. He is going to marry his fiancée in the Philippines and she gave him a list of things that he needs . Where does he get the letter of capacity to get married ?

The info i needed! Thank you so much
Glad it was helpful!
thank you for this information... it's very helpful and well-explained.
Glad you found it helpful! Thank you :)
Racquel is so beautiful, simple, and untouched (no make-up, fake nails, fake eyelashes, fake hair extensions). She looks very youthful for a 23 and most probably remain gorgeous and youthful as she ages. I should know. I’m a Filipina too. Congratulations!
Thank you for the kind words :)
So much information in your video. Congratulations on your marriage and thank you.
Thanks so much, happy to help!
Good evening, thank you for this video. May i ask if they need a witness with you to get a legal capacity in US EMBASSY MANILA.?
Happy to help! No, you don't need a witness to go with you. The Embassy representative will serve as the witness for the affidavit.
Appreciate your response..we already got ours. Thankyou
Wasn't sure I would watch the whole video but I was captivated. What a beautiful loving family, congratulations.
Thank you very much! 😊
Very helpful tips thank you very much and congratulations to you both
Thank you very much, glad you found the video helpful! 🙂
yes @phillipsinthephilippines I would like to hear more about that visa. Glad to see another one of your videos.
So you need the license first before getting married? Me and my wife got married before even receiving the license and I leave today and our license got approved yesterday and we was told she can finish up the whole marriage certificate herself. Unless we are being lied to.
I think there may be some confusion between the license and the certificate. The license is essentially just the official approval of the all the paperwork that you had to submit to the civil registrar to start the marriage process. Our municipality required a 10 day waiting period after the paperwork was submitted before they would approve the marriage to take place. Similarly to you, once we were married I traveled back to the US and my wife handled everything with the marriage certificate on her own. If I have misunderstood your question, perhaps things are slightly different from municipality to municipality. I would trust whatever they told you.
@@phillipsinthephilippines what happen was, we did get married before the license was even approved. And when our license arrived, the attorney then submitted our wedding paperwork to be process and charged us 5k to “expedite” it. My wife tomorrow she will gather the certificate and stuff. I already came back to the US.
@@user-vo1ze9sx5m Ah I see, I'm sure it is all good if you had an attorney involved. They are likely much more well versed on the specifics than I am. Congratulations on your marriage man!
@@phillipsinthephilippines the thing is, what you told me is the correct way to do it. My wife told me that in the PH when it comes to like documents and stuff, they know people that know people to process stuff faster but for a “fee”
I see, that makes a lot of sense. Glad you were able to get everything done on your visit out there. I know how stressful it is trying to fit everything in during one trip.
Thank you for the detailed guide. Very easy to understand and follow.
Glad it was helpful!
best wishes to both
Thank you! 😊
Phillips… THIS info by far let Google look like a fool. All my search there only produced conflicting information. Super happy to have come across your video. Thanks a million and CONGRATS 🎉!
Thank you, happy to help! 😊
This just explained everything i needed. Man! Thank you!
Glad it helped, thanks! 😊
@@phillipsinthephilippines will definitely follow the CR-1 process after me and my girl get married. Looking forward to that video!
Why did you have to go to Manila yourself? There’s people in paid to handle stuff like that if you’re willing to pay them.
If you use a service like JRC, you don’t have to go to Manila and see the consulate yourself
Hi! Can you be more specific regarding JRC? I looked it up and there 100’s of JRC’s. Thank you!
What is JRC?
I’m curious, sir why didn’t you use a service like JRC or something for a expedited marriage please reply back The reason I asked this is because a lot of people just use the consulting services to do all the paperwork and they’re married within three weeks with less hassle. All of the consulate paperwork you need service can do that a lot quicker than you.😮
What is JRC? I am planning to do this marriage process in January.
Hello thanks for the info. Do you have to go to the embassy alone or with your fiancé? And where is the best place to stay in Manila? Thanks
Glad to help! You can go with or without your fiance to the embassy. I went to there alone, but there were others there with their fiances. A couple of places that I have stayed at in Manila are Hop Inn Hotel Aseana City and Savoy Hotel. They aren't necessarily right next to the embassy, but just a short taxi ride away.
@@phillipsinthephilippines Thanks for the info
I went to the embassy in Cebu since it never packed and you don’t gotta schedule a month ahead. My now wife went with me and she waited for me outside. Was there for maybe 30mins
@@user-vo1ze9sx5m thanks
I have my fiance, His divorced catholic from USA was married for 20 years. He can remarry again in a catholic church? I am Catholic from Philippines...because catholic church not allowed in usa to remarry in Catholic church again
Hmm, I don't know that I can help with this one. I am not Catholic so I am not very familiar with their positions on divorce and remarriage.
OMG another Phillips, in the Philippines hahaha....Congrats bro on your marraige, I too am working towards doing the same soon. Only difference is, I already live here in PH going on year #2 in July of this year.....Better to hear it from someone who's "been there, done that" that most info found online....
Hi sir can i ask where can i got appointment to us embassy .? Or the link of embassy to get legal capacity thank you in advance
Hello! Based on what I have heard from others, the US Embassy in Manila seems to have very limited appointments available. If you are unable to make an appointment there, you can try to US Consular office in Cebu. Here is the link:ph.usembassy.gov/services/notarials/. Unfortunately it seems like the website is down for the legal capacity to marry template. If you email me at phillipsinthephilippines@gmail.com I can give you the template that I downloaded from the Embassy website as well as the template that was given to me when I arrived at the Embassy.
What site did you use to find your Filipina
Filipino Cupid
Sucks when you live on another island and you have to fly for paperwork in the embassy
Yeah definitely a pain. Thankfully the flights to and from Manila or Cebu are pretty quick and inexpensive.
We trying to do appointment at us embassy here at Philippines but dont have available date . All are booked. So wht should we do about it. We gettingt married on june 2024
You can go to the U.S. Consular Agency in Cebu. Just checked and it looks like they still have available appointments.
Congratulations 🎉
Thank you 😊
👍🙏🎉
Enjoy life!🎉
Thank you! 🙏
Congratulations 🍾🎉
Congratz guys!
Thank you 😊
Excellent video and well presented. Im from the UK and planning to marry my Filipina gf, The process is a little different for us but still good info
Wtf is a bearing guy certificate. There was no spelling and my Filipina doesn't know what that is lol
It is a certificate sometimes given by the Barangay (or smaller neighborhood government) that verifies that your Filipina lives in the municipality that you are applying for the marriage license in. It may not be required, and in my case it wasn't.
Here’s a question. What if you were married in the Philippines, brought your wife to America, she becomes a US citizen but years later the marriage doesn’t work, you get a divorce in America, you meet another filipina and you want to get married in the Philippines again?
