Hi everyone.

I mentioned before that my future MIL (fiancés mom) wants to help and she sent me another message last night telling me, "I wish there was something i could do" but if she can do something, how? I don't know what to answer her honestly, maybe send an email? to who? 

She asked how to start it, i dont even know🤦‍♀️.

Look, you need to tell them to sit back and wait. Once embassy starts interviewing your fiancé will be scheduled/notified to schedule interview. Calling and emailing will get you the same answer - wait.

You are in the Philippines. It's your silly country that has imposed all the travel bans and quarantines and lock downs and curfews.

 

I suggest you start where you live, you contact your president, you contact your senators and do your own due diligence.  Don't look for someone else to take care of your business, it's your country that has shutdown.

 

Why look to others to solve your problems?

I recieved a response from the Office of the President 2 months ago and they're hands off.  

 

Just so you know my and fiancé and i never update or give details to his parents because its our business. From the start and until now his family were very kind and sweet to help yet we refused, we refused since we know what were doing.

That was a very rude response.  Uncalled for.  Did you even read what she said?  Why take out your frustrations on her?

 

They started in 2019, on a K1, pre-Covid, and now her case is stuck in the K1 roadblock at the Embassy.  The American Citizen mother-in-law asked if she could help.  She did not ask her MIL for help.

 

I actually think the MIL could try to help.  It can't hurt if she writes her congressmen and senators.

 

Why is the U.S. not vaccinating their Embassy staff, expats and locals both?  Seems like a logical way to move forward and get back up to full speed.  How hard can it be to get 500 (guess) staff vaccinated?

Thank you and my MIL an active nurse and FIL work in Fed. Gov they really want to help and even my Fiance's bro thought they can call or write an email, its not bragging. They're concern about his depression and anxiety history, God forbid it happen again. 

The whole delay makes it worst. 

 

I emailed the Embassy and after 2 weeks no reply.

Bigger question is why is the US not vaccinating people in the USA?

 

I will be surprised if I get the chance to sign up for the vaccine by August of this year.

Waste of time and effort.

 

Senators or Congressmen can't order the US Embassy in Manila to open, all they can do it make an inquiry into a case.

 

This all falls on the Philippines with it silly lockdowns, quarantines, and curfews.  Until they lift those the US Embassy will only be working with a skeleton crew and processing very few and limited visas.

Here is my honest assessment:

 

I would fly to Costa Rica and get married there and go ahead and file CR1.

 

That would allow your "husband" to be able to visit you, and by the looks of things, I don't see the Philippines nor the US Embassy opening back up for normal processing until sometime in 2022.
