After a few days of panic and contingency planning we are out of these woods!
Even poor Dad had to get involved and he spent half a day running around in Delhi at the FA ministry of India trying to see if they could attest our MC in Delhi, India. Finally I told him to wait for a day and to let us try and see if FA Canada will see how ridiculous this is and that they can and should accept our Canadian Notarised Indian Marriage Certificate.
Deepak took all his properly filed documents used for our immigration all those years back, citizenship and all other processes we have gone through over the years and never had a problem with our MC. He showed them to the lady at FA, Ottawa, convinced her that we couldn't possibly have gone through all that without it being a valid one and that we have no other choice but to give them a notarised copy at best. Thankfully, after seeing the original and all the documents Dee had from the processes before, she agreed and authenticated it right then and there! Whew!
Its going to cost us 3 weeks, since the Kaz consul has gone away on business now, and due to this delay Liana missed the meeting she was planning on this week with him. Now he is supposed to be back 1st week of November so she can only meet him then to get our file legalised at the Kaz consulate. That's the next hurdle before the dossier is sent to Kaz. So, for now, Liana has all the docs, everything is GTG for the Kaz consulate and now we just wait till he gets back.
