Understanding Better

So I went to his dad's house yesterday and showed him the letter that was from Standesamt containing our requirements.

These are my takeaways from him: 

1. Only the birth certificate and CENOMAR should be authenticated by DFA Manila (red ribbon).
  In this case I will use a travel agency..I mean it would be cheaper I think..considering the roundtrip ticket (BCD-MNL, vice versa) plus hotel accomodations if I choose to process it myself..I heard documents will be released 3-4 days after processing..So a travel agency would be a much wiser choice.

2. According to his dad, I won't be needing an Affidavit for Parental Advice since by the time we get married, I'm already 25. But it was stated in the letter from ages 21-25 that a Parental Advice is necessary. So I don't know..I guess I'll follow his advice 'coz even if I secure the affidavit I don't know where to process it. (regional court, general console whattt????) So yeah..nevermind.

3. As for the Certified Copy of the Passport, I already have that and I hope it's correct.

4. Registration certificate..I'm not sure what this is..maybe like the voter's registration? or barangay clearance? or cedula? I'll make some research about this.

5. And lastly, I'll try to find a certified translator..I'll talk to my fiancee first which is better, if he'll be the one to have the documents translated there in Germany, or I'll have it translated here. Whichever's cheaper and easier would be the best choice.

So I'm not so confused anymore..I'll try to process whatever I can and we'll see what happens.
