HM Passport Office: How to Complain

[raynaputi]

I just can't understand why someone would need to present a CENOMAR (which stands for Certificate of No Marriage) if the parents were married at the time of the child's conception??? Don't they understand what cenomar is for??? It is only needed or presented as a proof that someone IS single and not married. For a married person, obviously the marriage cert is the only proof!

i have explained that to them many times especially to the examiner but she insisted that it is needed. i even rang the phil embassy to see if they can vouch for my word but the philippine embassy cant do them sort of things.

i even told the examineer that the CENOMAR word stands for itself, it is for single people she then said we have to know your previous marriage because philippines dont do divorce. i said what is it got to do with my sons application?

it is actually like u are talking to the wall with them. its beyond me!
