CR interview questions

[piglett 16]

well after much delay my wife will have her interview in Manila on the 14th

i'm guessing that she just brings the $325 with her in cash (pesos i guess)

also the packet i sent to her still hasn't showed up so she is rather worried at this point.

i think i have a copy of everything that was in that packet so i intend to take pictures

of everything i have here & email it all to her & then she can print it up there.

this will include

pay stubs......... 6 months worth ok?

my last years tax return

photo copy of my passport

& my letter of employment

am i missing anything on this list

thanks for your help

Moved from IR-1/CR-1 Process & Procedures to Philippines regional forum; interview procedures are Embassy/Consulate specific.

whats the $325 for? and i think signed affidavit of support and its supporting documents should be original forms and not pictures.

First question will be:

Why is your Fiance Handle Piglett?

First question will be:

Why is your Fiance Handle Piglett?

my handle is piglett which was my cats name many years ago

i am a member of a bunch of different boards on different subjects

i always use "piglett" for all of them

always have & i guess i always will.

thanks

they already have the signed affidavit of support in Manila

the $325 is required according to the form-169

"instructions for immigrant visa applicants"

the trouble is the postoffice is holding up the whole deal

i was told 3 to 5 days & i sent my wife everything she would need 2 weeks ago

so my back up plan now is to take pictures of everything i have here & email it all to here there. it's the best i can do by the looks of things.

thanks

There is the flaw... using the post office to send something to the Phils. All is fine until it arrives in Manila. Fedex is what my fiancee always recommends to me, she does not have much good to say about the postal system there.

Don't know what the Form 169 is or the $325 fee, the VISA fee is $350 and had to be paid for you to set up your interview online or if by phone then paid before the interview at BPI. Bring your proof of payment/receipt for the VISA fee, Cenomars, NBI clearance, Latest I-134 with most recent supporting documents (If you sent the I-134 with your original petiton submission, it will most likely be rejected because it isn't current, the DS Forms 156, 156K and 157, proof of relationship, etc....

Okay the DS-169 is for Immigrant VISA. Your K1 is a non-immigrant VISA. Below is the paket that you needto review before the US Embassy interview and gives you what the required documents and what the quantities are for the DS-156. 156k and 157 are. Please review as soon as possible if you haven't done so. Good Luck.

US Embassy in Manila already has all of the forms needed (I-684, AOS & DS-230, IV Application) also you've already paid the associated Fees through the NVC.

On Interview day there is no need for any additional payment for CR/IR Visas.

As for getting her any documents needed for the interview, the best method is using either FedEx or DHL. I prefer DHL because they are the only carrier who doesn't simply contract to local (shady) courier services for final delivery. DHL shipments are handled by DHL from your hands to hers.

correct, the bandits at the post office in manila are probably waiting on an offer of bribe money so they will stop holding the docs. hostage.

Most printers today also have scanners build in, if not you could go to KINKOs with a memory stick. Scan them as .PDF files and send them off.

It is my personal opinion that your going to have issues with printed pictures of documents. You don't have to have originals but I would suggest scanned pdf's. Lot's of places to get that done. I bet you have a local friend that can do it.... You as we use to say in the Infantry "Danger Close" which means you need to get busy.... Good luck with all of it.
