next step after approval (edited title)

[Ryan H 3,790]

If you leave before having overstayed for 6 months, you won't incur a ban.

If you leave having overstayed 6 months to 1 year, you will have a 3 year entry ban to the US. If you leave having overstayed 1 year or more, you will have a 10 year entry ban. If you incur a ban, a waiver would need to be filed and approved before you would receive an immigrant visa.

So i will be banned here in US if i didnt go back to my country?? Oh god My situation is so complicated ? i have a child born here on feb. 2015 he's only 4months old and nobody will take care of him if ill go back to my country coz my husband has work ??? what do you think is the best thjng to di with my case?

Your son is a US citizen, you can apply a US passport for him so that he can travel with you when you go back to the Philippines. Act NOW before its too late. For every day that you spent in the US brings you closer to incurring a ban.

I came to us on aug. 4, 2014. They give me 6 months to stay here until feb. 3,2015. So already 5 months overstayed here. So if i go back to my counrty soon i won't incur a ban? And i can still go back to US anytime with my tourist visa?

Currently, you're overstaying for 4 months+ and counting.

Leave now and you won't get a ban. Once you hit the 6 month mark, you will get the ban.

However, you already violated the terms of your tourist visa so you can't use it anymore. If you try to enter the US again using your tourist visa that will cause severe consequences for you. Stay in the Philippines and wait there until your immigrant visa interview is scheduled.

Oh so my visa wiil not be valid anymore ???? thats make me sad ? its 10years visa. ???

How long do you think before i can go back to US again? I mean the process of my visa?

Process time for spouse of LPR takes more or less 2 years.

Sana nanghingi na kayo ng advice bago ka pa nagoverstay. Nasayang tuloy yang tourist visa mo.
