dcf Feb 2018 DCF Manila (Petition filed)

This is Tuesday evening, nineteen days since we filed our Petitions. I was hoping for Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday, but now we only have Wednesday remaining. We are hoping, praying, and waiting! When it happens we will be so  thankful! I am still healing, doing well, and trying to rest and be careful not to sit on soft cushioned chairs too long at any one time. I am standing and laying down part of the time, and recovering feeling good, but not healed completely yet, but I will get there. It is just a matter of carefulness, patience, and rest. Most of all I want the notifications of our Petitions being approved!

This is Wednesday morning, day 20! Will our approval notices come today? We are wishing, hoping, and praying!

What is the full requirements from Manila? Does Permanent residence include living at a location 6 months as an ACR card holder?

Immigration has a !IST of requirements on their web page, requirements for filing nbsa the I-130 is what it is called. I think 6 months as an activated would qualify. I used my acricard and all the pages in my passport, and I am a permanent resident of the Philippines.

MPH-I-130 filing in Manila. Gives all the requirements.

This is the 23rd day since we filed or Petitions. Can we get approval notices on Saturday and Sunday, or will we only hear from them on Monday through Friday, since those are their working days?

You don't need Permanent residence. They will let you file even if you are on a Tourist ACR I-card. 

Here are the list of requirements:

It took us 6 days before we got our case number. Hang in there, you're almost done! 

[dekedwin 52]

That is a reasonable amount of time. We called the Embassy on the telephone today to talk with them about the Police Clearance from Lebanon. They are escalating our case to a higher level to figure out how to help us with that problem, and then they will send us an email letting us know what to do next. This nice to have people be helpful!

Today we are one step closer to solving the Lebanese Police Clearance probem. I spent all afternoon as evening printing documents that we will need for our interviews. Most everything from our Petitions filing, I made more copies from the originals.I think I am finished with that job now, except we need to have more passport style photos made.our visa interview materials are looking good.
