Marriage in the Philippines - New CNI - March 2014

[Slip]

So do I need to not go for my CNI appointment here in UK on 4th March to obtain my CNI.... Sounds like I am paying for something I no longer need.

I just print off that new one and fill it in?

I seriously suggest you contact the Embassy about that asap just to be sure..............
All the UKVI (was UKBA) webpages are now very 'minimal' and don't give too much info

Would appreciate your feedback on the Embassy response...

Taking the Embassy announcement at face value you don't need the UK CNI......

I have contacted the British Embassy in Manila to ask... Told them I have an appointment with them on 8th May to exchange my CNI which I am due to get from UK on Tuesday. Asked them if I need to get the CNI or just fill out the new form and turn up with that?
In the meantime I shall go ahead with my appointment unless I hear different..... The CNI is probably the most important document I need to get married, so not going to not get it unless it is official.... I may still get it as it is only £35 and I can afford to lose that rather than a lot more should I not get it and it is indeed required.

I'd agree....stick with your original plan then both sides are covered.

Please do let us know the Embassy position
