Me and my fiance are both 23 yrs old. I read some post here that someone got denied because she didn't bring some parental consent. My question is do we need to have the parental consent from our parents? I'm just being paranoid right now because my interview will be this coming friday and I just wanted everything to be ready.

Thanks in advance for the response.


Quoted:

hi everyone, i was reading a topic today about one of those petitioners who got their petition denied - on basis of no parental consent given on the part of the beneficiary which will make her free to marry anyone as she is only 19 yrs old (she's a Filipina and per Phil.law, anyone below the age of 24 needs parental consent to marry).

It usually isn't requested for the interview. However, there have been exceptions. You WILL need a CENOMAR though. Regarding parental consent, even if they don't request it at the interview, it more than likely will be requested at your CFO seminar. It would be best to obtain it just in case.

EDIT: Parental ADVICE is needed for ages 21-24, not consent. The PH government has forms for both.

This is a Filipino law. It does not pertain to the US citizen. There is no state in the USA that requires consent or advice for anyone of the age of 23.

Since your fiancee is a US citizen, I believe what he needs to provide is a Certificate of Legal Capacity to Marry.

Yes, you are correct. Its Parental ADVICE. :thumbs:

With the CFO seminar, did you obtain a parental advice at the local registry office? or you made a letter have your parents signed it and have it notarized. Does that one works?

Nope.. I did not bring any of those and still they allowed me to have the seminar. Just bring two valid id's your nbi clearance,passport, BC, and the form that you can DL at there website.

I already have my cenomar and I'm also done with the cfo seminar I just have to go back at there office to get the sticker. I see... Thanks for the correction... :)

Wow that's pretty great. Did they even asked for it? I am going to have my seminar in Cebu but it will months and months from now. I think I'll just secure one but just make a letter on my own format but have it notarized, hope it should be fine. Thanks for your input

This is a no brainer.

We collected EVERY docuement, read that to mean EVERY document, including the Police certificate and the consent letter for the children BEFORE WE FILED THE I-129F.

Why one EARTH would anyone start down a very serious and life changing road, in our case for FOUR people, not just two, without having everything you were going to need and knowing you can get it and holding it in your hand?

Wow! Your being mean and rude... SMH... FYI it's not stated in the packet 3 or in the i29f that we should have that parental consent or advise.

That's what I thought too... But theres a different rule here in the Philippines we need a parental consent/advise for our seminar we can't go outside the country if we don't have that seminar and in some cases the consul also look for that consent/advise for some of the Pinays who had their interview.

If we Filipinos are 21-24 we need a parental advise

And if the Filipino is 21 below they need a parental consent.
