US Immigration from Philippines

Hi all,

I hope you re all doing well. I m back asking for your input. I petitioned for my siblings and the petition is now approved and in NVC and the MNL case has been created. The visa availability is still decades away.

My sister got divorced. Anyone here knows how I can update her name and status in her approved petition?

I appreciate your help.

I have 3 applications in process, Wife and 2 stepsons. There are a total of 9 civil documents to upload of which 8 have uploaded successfully. Some documents uploaded as jpeg while the same document for another application had to be converted to pdf before being accepted. The final document to be uploaded is my wife's Birth certificate. I have submitted both pdf and jpeg formats, compressed to different sizes (under 4mb and under 2mb), I have used google chrome, microsoft edge, and chrome on my android phone. Everytime I try to upload it I receive this notification:

Please correct the following error(s):

• Select a File: Invalid Image Detected

This notification appeared with other files but corrected after I changed formats or sizes. I found a thread here thats outdated on this topic where the conclusion was that the issue was on the .gov server side and to just keep re uploading and it will eventually work.

Does anyone have any insights on this issue?

Posting for a friend.

I need help understanding my friend s situation. Please help.

My friend s father wanted to come to the US. My friend is a US citizen, let s call her Camille, and she lives in New Jersey. Camille said she does not have the means to support her father to come to the States. Camille s Aunt, a US Citizen, lives in Oregon, offers to help pay for the processing fees and flight fare for Camille s father. Her Aunt and her father are related. Her Aunt also offers that her father may live in Oregon to find work.

I thought that sounds illegal? You file a petition for your father, somebody else pays for the fees, and does not live with you? I think she is in a risky situation.

My question is, is that possible? Is that legal? Has anybody done that? Please share your input about this situation and share your experience when you brought your parents to the US.

Thank you!

My wife and I are now divorced here in Hawaii, we have two children together (10 & 4, both U.S citizens). I have Full Legal & Physical custody for both of them and I am planning to travel to the Philippines with both of them. My question is, do I need to have their mother's consent for them to travel with me?

Thanks in Advance

We got an RFE for our initial I-864 so we decided to get my spouse's mother to combine her income with my husband's (Petitioner). We're confused as to how to go about several things:

1. Is it correct that my spouse's mother fills up the I-864A?

2. If we go with the I-864A, on the form I-864 (Primary Sponsor) Part. I - Do we also tick the box that indicates that there's a joint sponsor? Or this is not the case since we have a household member?

Also, if you have other tips that can help! Thanks in advance.
