Understanding the Attestation Process for Kenyans

For Kenyan citizens applying to the Federal Skilled Worker program, the attestation of your marriage certificate is a critical document verification step. This typically involves several stages.

Each step demands precise documentation and adherence to specific protocols, which can be confusing. Navigating these requirements ensures your application is complete and avoids potential delays or rejections.
