hello:

so i have read some of these responses. currently my father-in law is in st luke's doing the sputum test. and i was wondering what the average timeline was for one of these test start to finish. some of the post where confusing. also they have told him he has to have 3 injections done up in north in quezon city. and i was wondering if anyone knows what that's about and if there is any other cost  with those injections

hey everyone here is the website you can use that will help you with all your next steps!

I would to a get a SS card that will state not intended for work. then get a state id card. once you have those go to a different bank. some bank require different things

hi

yes, she would file the i864 regardless of having no income, you would file the i864A as her co sponsor

Ok thank you . My next question would be then do i file them together? in the same packet or do i mail them separately? and is there an extra fee or is it just the regular one time fee?

I am trying to find some help in filling out the AFFIDAVIT of support as a co sponsor.

My wife has filed a I 130 for her father to come here to the us from the philippines. my wife is a us citizen. however my wife doesn't work and has no proof of income so i need to know do i need to file as a co sponsor? and if so how do i go about doing that? is it just the same paperwork but just in my name? any help or links where i can read on Co Sponsorship would be great.

my wife filed for her dad in july. we received notice today that it was forward to the nvc . i was wondering if anyone know how to file the Affidavit of Support. since the wife doesnt work. i know i will have to co sponsor . so i am wondering how i do that . hope someone can point me in the right direction.

Thanks Hank! I get it now, so the $230 was the old one.. it has increased now to $325..

@tjnielsen, thanks but it might be different coz I'm under CR1 visa, and we did DCF in US embassy in Manila

hey sorry i didn't see this post. disregard my post.

"Applicants will be provided with instructions by the NVC on where and when to pay the appropriate fees."

I hope the link helps clears some things up. I know it can be confusing hearing from different people on different paths and different stages.

i do have one question tho. Have you received your NOA 2 yet?

Hi! I just wonder how much we should bring for the interview at USEM Manila if there's an interview fee or any additional fee..? Coz when I filled up my ds260, the fees part says N/A so I assumed we pay at the interview?

After looking around for a bit. you shouldn't have to pay anything at the embassy if you paid the 420 $ in the States. the 325$ they have posted is there for if you wanted to pay for it there at the Embassy instead of the NVC.. As for the DS -260 i have yet to find a fee for that form. i don't even remember filling it out LOL but again a general rule of thumb if you have the money take it with you. if they need it they will ask you for it.

your 420 $ that you paid to the NVC in the States is what you would have to to pay. or 325$ for K1 or K3. CR-1 you don't pay for their at the Embassy. you may have to pay for the delivery service to get the package and passport back tho.. If your planning to be there for the interview take extra with you just incase.

okie dokie thank you very much for your help.

Only if your wife an USC already? The father will be IR-5 which is fairly quick. If she wants to sponsor her brother, that is an F4 preference and years to move over. Another option is the father moves here first and applies for F2 visa for the son. By that time, if the son is under 21, the process will be quicker and take maybe 2 years.

ok i thought he would be able to ride up on his dads I-130. same as if my wife had a child or does it not work that way for father and brother?

No she is not a Citizen yet this is assuming that she does become one. i am working on those papers right now. Just looking for info that i can start reading and studying on.

hello i am trying to find some information on how to go about bring my wife's Dad and her Brother to the US. I know i need to file a I-130 for her dad and that he is eligible to come to the US. however i am confused how to bring her brother up with his dad. the brother is 16 years old. if anyone can help me out here or point me in the right direction it would be good.

thats what i figured...

now if she where to get married to a american would she just have to file just like the rest or something different

Hi...

I am looking for some information for a friend...

She is a filipino who came to the us on a work visa.. however last year her work visa expired and her employer had decided not to renew it.. my questions are

How can she stay in the united states.

does she have to return home

can she file a ajustment of status to change her visa

and generaly what are her options

If you can help with any advise it would be greatful

Thanks

I would first wait tp get ur gc my wife and i ran into the same problem. However all we took with us was her passport and gc to the local ss office and filled out the papers for one and had it mailed to use wihin two weeks.

But here this should help the cfo in cebu is Monday thew Friday 10 am 12 pm the have 40 slots first come first serve. But going to the website it ill give u the requirments and contact information

All the information you should need can be located at www.cfo.gov.ph

Did u mail it to the lockbox in chicago or somewhere else?

Since the us DOESN'T HAVE THOSE. YOU CAN GO TO THE NSO AND APPLY FOR CENOMAR IN YOUR BOYFRIENDS NAME.. THAT WILL SHOW HE IS SINGLE AND THAT THERE IS NO MARRIAGE ON RECORD IN THE PHILIPPINES...THEY SHOULD ACCEPT THAT AS PROOF THAT HE IS SINGLE SINCE THE U.S DOESN'T HAVE ANYWAY TO SHOW HE IS SINGLE HERE IN THE STATES.

it is based off your gross annual income

yeah we have a nso certified CERT OF MARRAIGE. the agency probley did explain it to her and she just didn't ...

thanks... we have the Certificate of marriage so that not a problem. but they are asking for the CERT of No marriage. So i am confused

Once you get your Noa 2 in the mail... call the national visa center with the mnl number on your noa and they will talk you threw the next steps
