Hi Everyone,

I just became a member today and already i feel for everybody that has posted topics on this site and it warms my hart to read about everybody going through what i am going through.

So anyways, I am an American National that fell head over heels in love with my beautiful pinay wife. I met her 1999 on vacation to my mother's homeland. My vacation was supposed to be for only 3 months but it ended up being 3years! We got married in 2001. I have 2 gorgeous angels that i am so so so in love with!!! in 2002 i decided to go to the US after realizing how difficult it was for me to make a living and support my family. I petitioned my wife and waited and waited and waited after a year of not being able to see my family i left for the philippines and have been here since 2003 teaching english to korean and japanese nationals. I ended up neglecting my family's petition. to make a long story short 2008 rolls along and i receive a termination letter that blew me away. Now im determined to give my family the american dream! Im not sure where to start and i really don't want to be away from my family for another year or two.... Any suggestions to help me expedite getting my family there?

thanks

I would try DCF Direct Consulate Filing since you are living in her country. You should be qualified. It may simplify the process.

DCF means filing outside of the US, in an Embassy. If you are resident in the Philippines, you might be able to do it. It is so much faster as things don't go in the USA (probably 3 or 4 monthts faster). I really wanted to do that but couldn't.

Good luck.

It works the way it is layed out for you in the Guides. Just begin by clicking on the word "Guides" at the top of any page here.

Facts are cheap...knowing how to use them is precious...
Understanding the big picture is priceless. Anonymous
