US Immigration from Philippines

Hi kababayans....

I petitioned my parents and we got the Dq'ed this march 2021.

Still waiting for the interview date...

PLs feel free to share your experience/s..

thanks you,....

Did I read this correctly?

Dual citizens now need to obtain a Phil passport in addition to a US passport in order to visit the Philippines?

Hi everyone, does anyone have any insight/experience when it comes to extended stay for a tourist visa?

As a background, our K1 Visa is at NVC until PH USEM reopens. We filed our K1 in Feb 2020 and our NOA2 arrived in Jul 2020.

I'm fortunate for having a tourist visa so I was able to spend Christmas with my fiance and his family.

My return flight was in Jan 1st week but JAL cancelled my flight due to the new Covid strain. We decided to wait a while until it was safer to travel.

We were going to rebook my flight to Apr 1st week until PH announced a no-entry restriction to include non-OFWs (thanks to @Adventine for sharing this!). Although they retracted it, who knows what could happen next.

I don't intend on overstaying in the U.S. at the risk of having my tourist visa/K1 visa revoked. But we would like to be prepared for any other surprise events.

What are your thoughts on the extended stay for tourist visa? We have a little over 60 days before my visa expires so we are considering it.

- How long does the approval process take? Is it worth doing? What is the success rate?

- What are the pros and cons especially as it relates to our K1 visa?

- Any other alternatives/recommmendations?

Where do you email the request? I tried calling USCIS several times but the AI just kept sending me a link on how to request it and it just basically tells me which number to call (which is the same number I called).

Hello! I am a permanent resident. I petitioned for my 10 year old (soon 12) daughter in the Philippines. They seemed to be a problem with the biometric document they are requesting. Since my daughter has no passport yet, we were told to submit a police clearance instead for a minor. We posted the police clearance in December which they accepted as another document. Now,, I got the same request from the NVC , a biometric proof of her passport which I cannot produce because she is a minor and there was nothing, in my recollection, that required me to process her passport. My question is, am I missing a step? Should she have a passport by now? Who initiates the application for the passport of a minor? Please advise.
