Proof of Residency for DCF Manila

[wizzie1980 20]

Hi Everyone,

Just wondering if residency requirement of 6 months (before eligible for filing DCF) is affected if USC husband went abroad (Japan) for a 6-day vacation.

Hoping for your response.

Thank you.

I doubt the 6 day trip will matter.

Ok, I can only get NBI cert on Feb. 11, do I really need to show Nbi clearance as proof of residency? Any other documents that I can show? I only have

US credit card statement showing 6 months transaction here in PH

cedula (community tax certificate)

Bank statement (joint account with wife)

I dont have utility bill under my name and I also dont have a pH drivers license

Hi there, below are some documents you can show to prove your residence: This was taken from the USCIS website: http://www.uscis.gov/about-us/find-uscis-office/international-offices/philippines-uscis-manila-field-office

"Certain pieces of evidence may more strongly support a finding of residency than others. For petitions filed at this field office, you must submit one or more of the following:

• Resident Alien Card
• Foreign Property Deed/Rental/Lease

In addition, other evidence of residency may include, but is not limited to:

• Utility bills
• Housing lease
• Work contract or other employment documents
• Proof of local registration
• Local bank statements
• Proof of school enrollment
• Vehicle registration
• Valid local driver’s license
• Tax documents listing an address in the Philippines
• Passport entry stamp
• Foreign property deeds or registration (although proof of property ownership in itself, may be insufficient if there is no evidence that the petitioner resides at that property)"

Hope this helps!
