Hi,just a few questions...1st. I am waiting for my fiance's G-325A forms in the mail :whistle: She used EMS international world-wide postal courier network...has anyone heard of it? I have the tracking number,but nothing comes up for it...it was mailed 5 days ago express and my fiance e-mailed me a copy of the recipt so I know I have tracking number right. It was mailed from the Philippines. 2nd. I have read in the forms some examples on how to assemble the I-129f package and seen some photos put together on the same page...I like the look..but will they except photos put together like that or will they want them like stated in the guides...I think it said separate photo's with dates and location written on the back? The photo's all on one page was a cleaner look..was it done on MS word? As all my photo's were taken with my digital camera. 3rd. Last but not at all least WE just found out WE are pregnant :dance: I am 40yrs old never married and no kids...Geraldyn and I are very,very excited,she just had the first visit with her doctor and all is going well...but the doctor is saying no traveling. I know from reading the forms and looking at time lines that it is a 50/50 chance to get approved before or after the baby is born....God willing :D My question is...on the I-129f it asks to name any children she has that will be traveling with her? What do we put? We want to file now to try and lessen the wait...but I have not found any information on petitioning while being pregnant :help: Any information would be greatly appreciated,We thank you All :thumbs:post-44902-1209875760_thumb.jpg

EMS is the express courier service of the Philippine Postal Services, it supposed to be express delivery but it depends on what province in the Philippines the mail come from. I used that service also before and it took more than a week to reach my Fiance. So hang on there and you will have it in few days.

About the Photos, i suggest that you paste the picture in a bond paper and put the caption on it. You can put 2 or more pictures in one bond paper depending on the size of the picture. You can do it in MS Word or in Photoshop just don't edit the pictures and use the Photo Printer for better picture quality.

Congratulations! Im sorry i can't answer you about the pregnancy and baby thing, i sure there's someone here can answer your questions.

I have read on VJ that you report the birth of a child of an American citizen to the Consulate in the country where the child is born. The child will get an American passport by virtue of his/her American father. So I don't think the child will need a visa. Research that angle or make a new post with that in the subject and somebody will point you in the right direction.

Thank you very much...I had some help and found it... http://travel.state.gov/law/info/overseas/overseas_703.html ...The baby will not need a visa and will receive a US passport after obtaining the official record of birth from where the baby was born and submitting it to the nearest American consolers office where they can fill out a FS-240 form . You must have a valid US passport or a certified birth certificate and also show prof of residency in the US. And if they want, they can also ask for a blood comparison test. :thumbs:
