Can we get anything now?

[John*&*his*GG 2]

I would imagine our approval date would be soon or at least hopefully.

With that said can we get anything ahead of time such as police certs from Philippines, and Jordan, CENOMAR, etc.

The "etc." is for anyone else to fill in the blanks.

I saw someone say police certs take 3-4 weeks from their country not sure how it is for Jordan. I would like to get my baby with me soon and if we can get these things out of the way and have them ready it would help with that.

Also is CENOMAR just from Philippines or does she need one from both Jordan and Phil?

Thanks in advance.

police report from Jordan

Police Records

Available to resident Jordanian citizens and foreigners. The General Intelligence Directorate (GID) is responsible for issuing good conduct certificates. They are considered to be reliable, but cover primarily security-related records, i.e. not necessarily criminal information. These certificates must be applied for in person at the local GID office, and are valid for one year. It takes up to two weeks to obtain the certificate from the GID. Foreigners must reside continuously in Jordan for six months before the GID will issue a certificate. There are no procedures to obtain these certificates through Jordanian embassies in foreign countries.

Can she just get both police certs then? She's currently in Jordan and isn't going back to Phil before the interview.

Yes

For the PI

Police records

Available and reasonably reliable. Philippine-born immigrant visa applicants 16 years and over are required to furnish certificates issued by the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI). The green NBI certificate annotated for travel abroad is the correct certificate. Other colors are for local use only. Foreign-born applicants who have resided in the Philippines for six months or more may be issued NBI clearances upon application either in person or by mail. Applicants residing outside the Philippines should send requests for certificates together with money orders or bank drafts for the fees and postage to IRD-Mailed Clearance Section, National Bureau of Investigation, Taft Avenue, Metro Manila, Philippines. Philippine Embassies abroad can assist Filipinos in obtaining NBI police clearances. The NBI has its own fingerprint charts and personal data forms that it will send to the requesting applicant for execution. Most applicants abroad find it more expeditious to have a relative or friend in the Philippines assist them in obtaining their certificates from the NBI. In that instance, a letter of authorization is required. The applicant may also submit a copy ("personal copy") of a prior NBI clearance to facilitate the processing of a new clearance. Posts are advised that not all arrests and convictions occurring outside of Manila are reported to the NBI. NBI's criminal records database is not foolproof and the remarks provided on reports require explanation.*Manila and major Philippine cities have computerized records.

Fees

Application in person: 115 pesos

Application by mail: 200 pesos which must be paid through money order or bank draft (negotiable in the Philippines and payable to the Director of the National Bureau of Investigation).

Location

Applicants who prefer to secure the certificate personally must proceed to the NBI Clearance Center at:

5th Floor, Victory Central Mall

Old Victory Compound , Rizal Avenue

Monumento, Caloocan City

Or to the following Satellite Offices and Renewal Kiosks:

Satellite Offices:

Quezon City Hall Rodriguez (Rizal) Municipal Hall

Cool thanks.......What about the CENOMAR? Do we have to wait for that one? Does she have to get it for both Phil and Jordan or 1 is good?

uncertain, CENOMAR is solely a filipino thing... manila is the only consulate i am aware of that requests it

[Impatient Cupcake 10]

don't forget that the cenomar is only valid for 6 months

better to find out if it is even needed first

I just assumed since my fiance is Filipina and that it can be picked up from the Philippines embassy in Amman she would need it but I'm not sure either. I guess I will find out for sure. Thanks.

as it relates to the CENOMAR, don't assume, the amman embassy has their process and has nothing to do with anything manila might do or documents they require. they may not even know a document such as the CENOMAR even exists..
