US Immigration from Philippines

Is it really necessary to send Originals with the Report of Marriage to the Embassy/Consulate in Washington? Its my understanding of the checklist to send passports, greencard, original marriage license, (all with 4 copies of each) to the embassy to file report of marriage. That's a big risk and what do you do in the event your stopped and ask to provide proof of residency if the greencard is mailed to the embassy. Much worse what if said documents are lost in the mail. I have a horrible history with important documents being lost in the mail... to include certified mail with tracking number.... So has any one been able to get it processed without sending passports and greencards in? Thanks.

Hello everyone,

Hope all is well. I was trying to complete the DS 5540 ( Public Charge Questionnaire) for my wife but there are some parts of forms that confuses me. Do i need to include myself as a petitioner on part 3 where "List the expected members of your household in the United States." Thank y'all.

All appointments canceled until at least May 4.

In short I am stuck here in PI. Good thing me and fam was able to fly to Davao before the enhanced community quarantine in Manila. Went home to escort my wife and kids for their medical and interview but got cancelled because of the crisis.

I Am hearing that the president may extend for another 2 weeks the lockdown, no domestic flights going to Manila. Davao just started their ecq. On the lighter side, got to spend time with fam but this is definitely not a vacation lol.

anyone here who is stuck as well??
