I have researched the rules and proicess for getting married to my fiance in the Philippines. She is 20 so needs to get Parents Consent. What is this really? A form that both mother and father sign and then notorized or is this a form letter, once again signed by the parents? Does anyone have a sample copy of something I can use resource or otherwise to check this block.

It's a little complicatted as her father lives in Manila and her Mother in Mindinau. So will have to get two letters or have them both sign the same one.

Thanks

I would suggest posting this in the Philippines Forum. perhaps someone there will have had similar situation.

The Philippine Family Code: Marriage applicants who are aged 18-21 needs a written "Parental Consent" and those who are between 21-25 will need written "Parental Advice" (stating that parents are aware of the couple's intent to marry) prior to application of the marriage license.

Since your Fiance is 20 years old, a written "Parental Consent" from her parents are warranted. And since parents are separated, she may need to get 2 letters (one from each) to make things legal and you will not encounter any problems along the way of your petition/processing. Good Luck.

I think you'll see the statute refers to written permission from father OR mother.
