did you do it through Vancouver consulate or Ottawa embassy? I heard of people from Vancouver getting it however that what we got info from the Ottawa embassy because we live in Ottawa. And trust me, there was no miscommunication at all, the lady just didn't want ro give it to me period. Even after phone conversation denial, I sent email and had few back and forth emails and still she kept declining and explaining that they cannot offer me a Non-O visa as a spouse/dependant because my husband applied for Non-O visa instead of Non-OA. So frustrating .....
I am from Canada and my husband just got his Non-O visa based on retirement. However when I applied for my Non-O visa as a trailing spouse, I was denied. They say that only if my husband would have applied for Non-OA thwn I could get my non-O visa. The offered me a 6 months multiple tourist visa instead, which I will take and then when my husband gets his 1 year extension in Thailand, I will go out to near Consulate and tey to get Non-O visa trailing spouse
I was married in Romania and currently both me and husband are Canadian citizens. I tried to get my certificate legalized before we arrive there because I know will be needed but so far I couldn't get it done in Canada because Canadian embassy/Global Affairs Canada doesn't want to touch foreign documents, and Romanian consulate it tells me I can do this only in Romania which doesn't make sense to me. So, now we are thinking to try to deal with this when we are there in Thailand. I am not sure anymore which embassy there in Thailand should provide me this affidavit but I assume it should be Romanian one since we married in Romania?
Hope you will see m message. I am in similar situation like you. We are Canadian citizens planning to retire in Thailand and marriage certificate is Romanian (written in English too). Please tell me what steps you did for the Thai authorities to recognize your marriage certificate? Thank you!!
