US Immigration from Philippines

Anyone here had same scenario as my wife? Summary is, should she apply under 3yr rule or 5 yr rule?

I came in as GC in 2017.

Petitioned my wife to come in as GC as well.

She arrived here in 2022.

I became a citizen last year, March 2023.

When can she apply for citizenship? After 5 years since entry? Or can she take advantage of my case, now a US Citizen, under 3 yr rule?

March 2026(3 years) vs September 2027(5 years)

I have a situation regarding my visa application

Background:

Last 2022, I visited the US multiple times on a tourist visa, I never stayed beyond six months during any visit (5 and half months each time) . Unfortunately, upon my most recent arrival which is 2022, my tourist visa was cancelled at the airport due to my frequent visits last year and suspicion of working here ( I was using my aunt's phone and on there it has aunt's work text exchange, i guess they used that against me and thinking it was mine) . I was denied entry and sent back same day. on her passport visa page they wrote down cancelled visa and stamped a application of withdraw, WD. immigration officer did state that I was not banned and I can reapply visa after 6months.

*I stayed there for 5 months twice cause I love travelling, I travelled different states then my sister gave birth and my uncle died. So a lot has happened within those 10 months. I was also unaware about immigration before because I had my visa since i was a kid and we go to states every 5 years

Now, I got married to a USC and we just recently got approved from CR1 (USCIS) , will this affect my visa? Has anyone have the same experience as me? I m having depression and anxiety just thinking about it. Now were almost near finishing the NVC.

TLDR: Embassy wants more info on overstay from ten years ago and we have very little documentation. Asking for advice please.

Hello all. My fiancee will be attending her K1 Visa interview in two weeks in Tokyo, Japan. Today she received an email from the US Embassy. In it they asked the following:

Thank you for sending us your requested documents by mail; however, we need to ask for some additional documents for your interview.

Please see below and submit the documents along with other required documents in the instructions.

• Original birth certificate for your child
• Any original official documents regarding your overstay/detention in Japan
• A photocopy of the original documents above, along with the translation if the documents are not in English
  

If you cannot collect the documents before your interview, please explain it on your interview day.

Hi, longtime lurker here but I haven't found the info I'm looking for upon scouring the forums.

You see, I'm on my 8th week waiting for the sputum culture results. However, St. Luke's called me for additional instructions earlier, 5 days before I return on Sept. 30. The person on the other line said she'll call be back because she needed to consult with her manager upon finding out that I wasn't from Manila.

She was so vague about it as well. Anyone experienced this? Would it be weird if I tested positive this late into the culture?

Anyway, I never got the follow up call despite waiting all day. It's making me anxious and my fiance's distraught over the possibility that I might have tested TB positive.

Manila. USEM.

My wife's visa issuance was delayed due to an expired Qatar PCC (not actually expired, because it was issued less than 2 years ago and she has not left the Philippines since it was issued but the consular officer is requiring an unexpired copy). Qatar takes 2 to 3 months to issue. Last time, it took them a full 2 months. We don't expect the embassy to be fast about reviewing it and issuing her visa. Her medical will expire January 15.

If her visa is in hand by, say, January 12, and she won't enter the U.S. on or before January 15, what do we do? I understand she will need an updated medical, but how does this work? Do they give her the results in a sealed envelope since her visa is already in hand, or is her visa technically expired and she must restart the process again? If the latter is the case, then should we get an updated medical by mid-December if she still doesn't have her visa in hand so that it will not expire? This whole thing is sort of incredible. She was told that even though she had her interview, and all the other documents were verified, and she has a 221g for the Qatar PCC, if any other documents have expired by the time she sends her Qatar PCC, she must also update those. It's like a rolling refusal. Well, it feels like it anyway. But off the sniveling and on to taking care of the business. I get it. Her visa isn't issued until it's issued, and this will require administrative review.

TIA, all.
