K1 with three K2s for Manila to USA

 

We are currently waiting on our NOA2 for our K1 Visa for Manila. We have three children that will accompany us from the Philippines to USA as K2.

Has anyone recently completed this process with children? If so can you reply about your experiences. Also about arrival with children in the USA.

 

Specifically, I understand that only 15 years old and up need to attend the interview. Is this correct? Our children are 9, 10, and 15.

  The DS-160s...  Do I need to rill out a separate DS-160 for each child and the Beneficiary too? For some reason I thought that when you added children to the Beneficiary's DS-160 that the form then allowed continued filing out of three more forms all linked and to be submitted at once? Where did I get this idea? Also then I assume there is a separate DS-160 (Visa) fee for each of the children and beneficiary, i.e. times 4. Currently we have the DS-160 filled out to the "Review" section after the "photo". We do not intend to actually submit it until we have the NOA2 as I think I am seeing recommended on this forum. So did I miss something where the children's forms should be linked together for one submission?

 

Also can someone please explain about arrival in the USA. Will I, The sponsor Fiance, be able to go through the same immigration/customs line to help with the children. I'm sure they will be all wound up from the excitement. Perhaps I need to break out this into a separate question here on the forum. If so then mention that and I will. Also I seem to be unable to figure out how to post to the specific Philippine forum.

 

Regards
