US Immigration from Philippines

Hello everyone,

My mother s petition was approved and we re in the process of gathering all the documents needed. Unfortunately we ve been having lockdowns back home in the Philippines which have been causing delays.

Is there a deadline/timeline for the family visa? Like if we don t submit everything by a certain date, the application will expire?

For K1s in US Embassy Manila

Are there beneficiaries getting interviews in this Embassy?

I think this is the slowest moving US Embassy on scheduling interviews.

It is so frustrating!

Hi everyone,

Just wondering if there are credible links, or websites, pages, etc..where I can get constant updates for guidelines in going to the Philippines? I and my husband will be going back Philippines next month (October), and the protocols are so confusing they change like almost every day!

I am a dual citizen and so I got the proper documents for me and my husband. I just need the guidelines on what are to be done before and during the travel.

I appreciate any inputs guys. Thanks!

Hi, I am trying to get a Travel Visa to the Philippines, I wrote the San Francisco consulate asking for the visa mailing address. They sent me the qualifications for a visa and I don't qualify. My intent to go there is to marry my fianc e, then apply for a C1 spouse visa for her and a Philippine spouse visa for me.

Does anyone know of any legal loopholes that I can try?

Thanks for your time

Dan

I am a US citizen and plan to petition my father. Though, I have questions about my situation.

1. I acquired my US citizenship through my mom. She did the oath taking before I turned 18 which made me a US citizen automatically. I only have my US passport as a proof. I don't have a certificate of Naturalization. Will the NVC, USCIS or interviewer ask for the certificate? Or my passport will be enough? I know there is also an affidavit I can acquire explaining how i got my citizenship but cost like $1k something, it would not be worth it since it would make sense to just do the actual process and only pay $500.

2. My parents are divorced in the philippines. My mom remarried. Do I still need to submit their marriage certificate or divorce paper and/or my mom's marriage cert with her new spouse?

3. On the I-130 form, it asks for my parents' given, middle and family name. Do I put my mom's maiden name or her current remarried last name?

4. Also, if I the question does not apply to me, can I put N/A or leave it blank?

I appreciate any help and information.

Thanks!
