Hello everyone. iu have a question to post for yall. I am an American citizen living in the Philippines . Now married for only a few weeks and upon receiving out NSO certified copy of our marriage certificate I want to see about a DCF filing. I have contacted the U.S. embassy manila and they were not helpful. I have lived here for 2 years and have had to return stateside on occassion but never lived back there.I am trying to find out what documents I need ot show as proof I have lived here. the apartment is now in my name but only for the last 2 months. I have letters from friends here and copies of bank statements showing my drafts here. My ACR card is a year old. I also have my Passport copied.

Can any one here help out?

Your ACR card should be the main thing.,

Do you have any bills (local phone, electricity etc?). Flights to and from the Phils showing you spend most of your time there? How come the apartment is only in your name for 2 months, what name was it under before?

I do have my ACR card copies of my bank records and letters from my land lady

Hi! My husband is living here in the Philippines with me under tourist visa for 17mos now. How can we get approved? What are the other requirements aside ACR card or bank account?

Are you trying to do the i130 or do DCF?

My wife and I only recently married. When we rented this apartment the land lady put my name on it. However; the Cable bill here is in my wifes name. the place we were in before was in my wifes name, they didnt trust foreigners.

Hi everyone. My husband and I (i resided in Macau for few years) moved to Philippines last January and got married last May. He went to Us embassy today to ask if he is qualified for Dcf but he told me that he didn't get exact answer but sounds like he is. We cannot depend on "sounds like" though. They only gave him forms and a blue paper with list of requirements. I checked online and i saw a permanent residency requirement and 13a visa stamp something like that. My husband is not a permanent resident of Philippines, he has alien certificate card valid for one year. We went to Thailand after his 6 months and when we came back, immigration officer gave him one year free visa stamp because he's married to Filipina. Can anyone help us to know if he's qualified? Same experience as we do? We only have our contract of lease as proof that he resides in Philippines. We have no joint account yet since we've been married for only 4 months, no proof of billing under his name too. I don't know if the contract of lease is enough proof.

Thank you for kind response but i couldn't see the direct consular filing in the link. It tells the procedure of spousal visa in US but not direct consular filing guide in US Embassy.
