NSO can't send my CENOMAR thru FedEx... HELP...!

[MaeLey 1]

I made a request of my Cert of No Marriage (CENOMAR) to NSO last week and requested them to send it directly to the Embassy thru FedEx as it is the fastest way.

But the reply I got from them is this, "Please be informed that our operations cannot accept forwarding of shipments/documents via FedEx at this time. It is suggested that your request/s be picked up from our office in Quezon City, Philippines by your relative/authorized representative."

Any kababayan here in Singapore, what did you do?

Please help...!

We picked it up in person. Takes 5 minutes....unless you're in Singapore and have to have someone take care of it on your behalf.

The instruction from the US Embassy says, "For Filipino applicants, who claim no prior marriage(s), please obtain a 'Certificate of No Marriage' from the National Statistics Office and this must be sent directly from NSO to the Immigrant Visa Unit, Consular Section, American Embassy Singapore, 27 Napier Road, Singapore 258508. This office will not accept the certificate submitted by individual applicant".

I'm worried if they will allow it if I have to ask someone to send it to the US Embassy here.

It will take 6-8weeks for PhilPost to send it (

If NSO only uses PhilPost, I guess you have no choice. Don't worry, it might be quicker than 6 weeks.

Have family that could pick it up? They could FedEx it to you after that.

Ah... Then you have no choice but to live with NSO and their choice of how they send it.

Hi...we have the the same problem KABAYAN. My fiance did mine today and he told me that they will send it by philpost because when he tried to email them ,they replied ...Please be informed that our operations cannot accept forwarding of shipments/documents via FedEx at this time. It is suggested that your request/s be picked up from our office in Quezon City, Philippines by your relative/authorized representative."

So we have no choice!!!!When is your interview sis?

Kaya nga

I still haven't been scheduled for interview, I just sent Packet 3 last Oct 29. Ikaw?

But I replied to their email if there is other special courier services other than FedEx as stated in their website...

Hopefully, they can send it thru DHL.

Just follow the instructions on the letter. Have NSO mail it directly to the US Embassy in Singapore. It says 6-8 weeks but it might be less. I couldn't afford the FEDEX thing because you have to set up an account with your credit card, they would block $500 but they won't charge you, etc. blah blah blah. So I just paid the fee using the credit card of my fiance. Remember they only accept American credit cards and a few others. Not Singapore or Filipino issued credit cards. My CENOMAR came in time for my interview which was a month after I ordered it.

I was with a lady who was being interviewed and the embassy official said they were waiting for her CENOMAR. She was STILL interviewed. NSO will mail it in time.

same problem. got interviewed but they said they need the cenomar directly from NSO. now i have to wait for my cenomar so i can send my passport back at the embassy. that would mean another 6 to 8 weeks of waiting. not even sure if im doing it correctly... aaarrggghhh

Hi,

Need help. Is it better to wait for the Cenomar to reach the Singapore US embassy before sending the rest of the documents to have an interview? I have completed all the requirements except the cenomar. I just applied last 26Jun, online. What do you think?

Thanks.

Hi,

Do you have relatives in the Philippines who can send you directly the NSO at your address? What I did was, I asked my parents to get my NSO here - https://nsohelpline.com/ (I was the one who ordered online and it was delivered in 2 business days) but I also gave them a letter authorizing them to get it for me (they just gave the deliveryman a letter and was asked for their ID) and then after, my parents sent it here to me in US. It's more easier than waiting or getting my NSO here. I hope this gives you an idea or option
