US Immigration from Philippines

Hello! I am new to this site and the page really helped me a lot. You were able to answer my questions. My parent s Medical will be on the 28th of March and the interview will be on the 30th.

What supporting legal documents should I bring to the US Embassy upon interview?

My sister who s at the United States sent me her original Tax Analysis 2019 way back 2020 since my mom s DS-260 was completed last June 2020.

Should I bring the original Tax Analysis for 2019?

And scan her latest Tax Analysis which is issued 2022?or will the W2 page suffice the financial support documents? I m sorry, I m not from the US that s why I m not really familiar with the terms. I m assisting may parents on their interview.

With regards to DS-260 confirmation, should I bring only one copy which is the confirmation page alone?

I just want to have a smooth transaction especially that we live in the province and my parents are senior citizen. I hope someone could help me. Thanks a lot!

We need to obtain a copy of my Wife's birth certificate from the Philippines. My Attorney gave us a link. I think I may have ordered a copy at some point from them, but it is missing. Anyway, it seems they wanna send it through DHL. The quote I was given for one birth certificate sent to the USA through DHL is like $167.80. Does this sound right? Can't these be sent through like Fed Ex? I could of sworn last time we got one for like $30.00 mailed to the us. it took like a month to get, but was sent in a normal type envelope of some kind.

Any suggestions?

I couldn't find anything posted post-Covid, so I'm asking. The Embassy web site mentions fees from time to time. I know we paid the AOS fee and the IV fee to the NVC when we uploaded all the IR1 documents. Are there any other fees to pay besides at ST. Lukes? Thanks

Hello all. I m anticipating my noa2 will come up pretty soon. What is the average time from noa2 to interview now a days in Philippines?

Hi everyone,

Good day! It has been decades since my last visit, but life was just busy ever since then.

Anyway, I have a question because it is confusing for me.

Here s my case:

I am a dual citizen (US) and (Phils.) I and my husband will be in the Philippines next month for a 3 months vacation. We booked an Asian cruise which starts in Singapore on May 18 2023 together with our family (party of 5). We will be departing from Manila to Singapore for a that cruise.

My question is, - which passport should I present to Singapore immigration upon arrival? as well as upon leaving Singapore?

This one confused me because it s my first time as a dual citizen entering another country coming from Manila.

I and my husband go to the Philippines every year for a vacation, and I always present both passports in entering and departing Philippines. It s just that I am not sure which passport to use upon arrival in Singapore.

I would appreciate any inputs or any experiences you had regarding this case. TIA!
