US Immigration from Philippines

Hello,

My daughter's case is still at NVC awaiting the interview schedule. I am a Green card holder and planning to become a USC. Would it expedite my daughter's case if I become a USC or just wait as an LPR till the petition journey is over?

Daughter's case: F2B (PHILIPPINES)

Priority Date: 07 June 2012

Status: DQ, Awaiting interview schedule

Thank you.

I got accepted for remote (office admin) volunteer work because I told them that I just applied for my green card renewal. I am currently job hunting and I wanted to know if anyone got discriminated against as well for an actual job while having their ROC (I-751) processed.

It's a new consultant company consisting of 2 people as of the moment with no actual clients yet but they needed volunteers to help with admin tasks. Since I have been having a hard time finding a hybrid/ remote job in NYC, I thought of applying. Didn't think I would be rejected like this, lol.

Does anyone know how long it is taking to receive green cards after arriving in US from PI? Can they travel out of the country prior to receiving cards, as in a cruise or to visit me in Mexico?

I m not eligible to apply yet but just want to be prepared when the time comes. I will be applying for N-400 under the 3 year rule next year. I know one of the main requirements is marriage certificate. However, in Wisconsin, it is a felony to copy/scan vital records. I checked with Vital Records office and they confirmed this. And I have always sent certified copies to USCIS. I tried looking it up on VJ and there were only two posts about this that I ve seen.

I was hoping to file online. So I have a few questions:

1. For those who are familiar with the process in the Philippines, I have a copy of our PSA issued report of marriage - it shows that we got married in Wisconsin. Can I upload this instead of our marriage certificate? Then maybe just attach the email I received from DHS vital records and a letter that I can send them a certified copy if needed?

2. Since my husband was born in Wisconsin, can I just provide a copy of his passport instead? It is a valid passport that he got over 3 years ago, he never lost citizenship.

3. Or should I just file it by mail? I can then provide certified copies of both marriage certificate and birth certificate.

As always, thank you for your help!

Hello everyone, I hope you're all doing well. I am seeking advice and insights from those who have experience or knowledge about the K1 visa process. I am currently in a relationship with my American partner for four years, and he proposed to me in May 2022. We are thrilled about getting married and starting our lives together in the United States.

However, we have not yet applied for the K1 visa, mainly due to our concerns about the timeline and income requirement. As I am from the Philippines, I have heard that the visa processing can be lengthy, which worries us as we eagerly await the opportunity to be together permanently. Additionally, my partner is a freshly graduate engineer with about a year and a half of full-time work experience. While his income meets the requirement, we wonder if there is a specific duration of full-time work that must be met for approval.

Moreover, there is an added layer of apprehension due to my previous record of denial for a tourist visa in 2019. Although this is for a different visa category, I cannot help but worry if it might affect my chances for the K1 visa. We want to ensure that our application is strong and free from any potential hindrances, and any advice or guidance from those who have gone through similar experiences would be highly appreciated. Thank you all so much for your time and support.
