Haiti: Does anyone knows what's going on with the National Archives in Haiti?

[Meeka.L 0]

Hello everyone, I am knew here. So I petitioned for my husband who lives in Haiti. He has sent his birth certificate and extrait d'archives to make a correction to his mother's name. He has also requested our extrait for the marriage certificate. It has been 10 months since he has been waiting on the documentations. He is constantly being told that the director of the National Archives has not been in the office because of the kidnappings so he has been working from home. Does anyone knows what is going on with the National Archives and why is it taking so long to receive the documents? Thank you in advance.

Wow I wonder why there is such a long process in Haiti. Do you have any idea when the offices will open back up? When were you approved by NVC?

After 10 months, is too much and if your husband thinks he is sitting, waiting without doing anything, he will never find them, these people are too busy taking on cases for which they are given money separately (under table). If your husband has the receipts from the deposit, I suggest that he go directly to the central archive office located in Delmas 75 for any follow-up, he won’t pay additional costs, since he has already paid but nevertheless  he may meet people ( Jack-of-all-trade) in front of who harass him so that they can help him, it's up to him.  If he decides to pay a little bit extra and let these people help him. 
 

N:B : Since the crisis the Archive doesn’t really work but he notice a calm he can try to go there. 
 

###### luck!!!!

Good Morning,

 

as for the book for national archives the book comes out once a year I forget the month I will have to search here when I wrote that information. i had to redo my whole cases over and pay all 3 cases again because i got a rfe for national archives this was when things was moving fast so in march 2019 my husband was on it going back and forth to PAP to see about the documents he had a friend who could help and we had someone staying on them but we paid an extra 50 to get these papers we ended up with 2. as for the haiti it is hut down as long as the american hostages are still being held for ransom no telling when it will open back up they are only open to help the americans that are living in haiti. as for when the embassy is open there are only 3 people inside doing interviews my husband said and a few are doing other things but he don't know what.

You have to have connections for these type of things in order for you to get things in a timely matter. My husband also had to get his mother’s name corrected on his birth certificate we got it done in under a month
