HI Sis.. Nakakalito talaga ang UK embassy at PSA. Nasa UK embassy na talaga kami pero di man Lang kami pinapasok dahi nga sa extended dw ang local notarized pero pumunta kami sa PSA walang memo Kay di kami naka kuha ng license dito sa Davao LCR. My Fiancé was so disappointed dahil sa bagal ng government natin...so walang license balik na naman fiance ko this year. unfair sila masyado..

Ay sayang naman. Eto sis yung bagong PSA memo for UK. Wala nang locally notarization. Read the last part dyan yun instructions kung paano kukuha. Then ipaprint nyo din etong memorandum as a proof.

[@PnoySkeeter]

Hi Ruth, Does the LCCM apply to dual citizenship holders (US and Philippines)? I plan on marrying my fiance in the Philippines as she's a national there. I'm Fil-Am but I will be getting a dual citizenship very soon before I marry her.

[@sheen.dlro1]

hi do you know if we are dual citizenship we can request in the philippines the cenomar and birth certificate?

[@PnoySkeeter]

@sheen.dlro1 you don't have to be a dual citizen to request a cenomar and birth certificate. Make sure you follow the requirements for both, then write an authorization letter giving permission to whoever will pick up the paperwork for you. They may sit in the PSA office for hours but will get all that's needed within the appointment. That's what I did with my fiance since I'm in the US.

[@user-eb8uz3up1p]

Can we get the lccm right away or we need to wait until 10 working days. Hope you replied bcs my bf only have 2 weeks vacation on march and we want to get married on march.

[@PnoySkeeter]

LCCM is same day much like PSA cenomar and birth certificate. You just need an appointment with your embassy for the notary. It's the marriage license that takes 12 days total, including weekends

Kung kasal na po kayo no need na ang legal capacity, requirements lng yan only for applying a marriage license. If mag apply ng spousal visa sa USCIS or nvc di na need Yan. More on evidence of bonafide relationship hinahanap. Patunay na totoo ang relationship nyo.

Good day Maam Ruth, and everyone who is trying to obtain LCCM. Tanong ko lang din as of Dec19 ang US Embassy parin ba ma obtain itong LCCM, nakakalito kasi ung website diko maintindihan kung sakanila kukunin or sa PSA or Attorney. I went last June sa embassy to get LCCM ang sabi sa PSA nadaw pwede kumuha or attorney. So kumuha kami from Attorney then ipinasa namin November ang sabi ng Local registrar hindi nadaw valid ung kay Attorney. Anong gagawin ko nalilito na ako kung saan kukunin ang LCCM ko naka book na ako ng appointment ko sa embassy this January 4. Please send me guidance sa mga nakakuha na.

[@rutholaescraver]

Hello good afternoon po. After october 31 sa us embassy na kukuha ng LCCM. Yung sa attorney nyo di na valid yun kasi November kayo nagpasa. Dapat before October 31 kayo nagpasa at nag apply Ng marriage license para valid pa sana yun. To clarify, yes sa embassy na from now on kukuha ng LCCM . Good thing merun na kayong appointment so okay na po yan. Good luck sa inyo.👍👏

Feb po kasi schedule namin for notarized sa usem pero December this 2024 pa balak namin mag pakasal. Sana masagot po. Thankyou!😊

[@SilkieGirlph]

How do I check if I got the appointment?

[@rutholaescraver]

After you finish and have it submitted, there will be a confirmation page screen. Stating the details of your appointment. You're supposed to take a screenshot and print it so that when you go to an appointment you have to bring it. You may rebook once there's an available slot. Try to check everyday or by Monday (maybe Tuesday since it's a holiday on Monday) morning Philippines time.
