  1. Nakashima, check the envelop that you received from Delbros. According to CFO, the Immigrant Data Summary should be stapled in your envelop. It is a document printed by the US Embassy t hat's according to CFO). Only CR/IR visa holders are required to submit the IDS.

    You may want to call CFO at 561-8321 local 201 or 203 to double check above info.

  2. Hi,

    I just became USC last week. I want to bring my parents and younger brother (currently is 20 years old) to the US.

    I knew derivative visa worked in the past (4 yrs ago). My oldest brother sponsored for my family with parents and brothers/sisters. Then my parents and under-21-unmarried brother and sisters came to USA with my parents. The older and married sisters had the file separated into another file and they came to USA last year.

    Now I’m confused. If your parents and unmarried brothers/sisters are already in the US after having been petitioned by your oldest brother, why would you be petitioning for them again?

  3. Unmarried children of parents sponsored by a US citizen son or daughter cannot "piggy-back" on their parents visa. They have to be applied separately as F1, F3 or F4, as the case may be.

    You have the option to petition your brother at the same time as your parents. Your parents would be filed under "IR" (Immediate Relative) and could receive visas within one year while your brother would be filed under "F" (Family) which could entail a 14 year wait based on current Priority Dates processed.

    You also have the option to petition your parents first then wait until they become citizens so they can file a petition for your brother.

    If you wait until your parents become citizens, below is a likely wait scenario for your brother based on the current Priority Dates:

    1 year - time to process your parents' visa

    5 years - wait for parents' citizenship

    6 years - waiting period for F1 (unmarried son)

    ----------

    12 years - total wait period if parents petitions your unmarried brother

    3 years - additional wait if your brother becomes F4 (married son)

    ----------

    15 years

    Please note, however, that if something happens to the parent while a petition is pending, the petition "dies" with the petitioner.

    I’m not sure if two petitions can be filed on behalf of your brother. One to be filed by you now and another one to be filed by your parent as soon as they become US citizens then see which one gets processed first.

    Good luck!

  4. Cognratulations Nakashima! Hey spunky, what's up? Any news on your fiancee's interview?

    Thank you jeeleebee for the good luck wishes sent my way. When are you leaving?

  5. Optional Form 167 (OF-167). This is a form entitled “Evidence Which May Be Presented to Meet the Public Charge Provisions of the Law” and is not submitted to the embassy. It’s just a guideline on how to meet the public charge law. Below is a link to a sample of OF-167. If you look at the bottom right of the page, it identifies the document as OF-167.

    http://www.usembassy.org.uk/cons_web/visa/...#search='OF 167'

    I went through Manila Embassy and they took my Affidavit of Intent to Marry. In essence, the affidavit said “I, THE USC, reiterate my intent to marry my fiancee ____________________ within 90 days of her arrival in the USA. Signed this ____ day of _____________. It need not be notarized.

    Not sure if Frankfurt Embassy requires Affidavit of Intent to Marry.

  6. Sad to say but there is no "21 years or older siblings rule". Your brother is not entitled to derivative benefit from your parents even if he is less than 21 years old.

    A child less than 21 years of age can only get derivative benefit if the parent is the beneficiary of a fiance or spouse visa.

    Your brother qualifies as an F4 for family-sponsored visa and currently there is a 14-year wait for that.

  7. patiently waiting when you went to your interview before did the consul ask about the anullment papers..like the (entry of judgement) and the letter from (solicitor general) or just the decision from the judge?
    Hi jazzy,

    During my interview, the consul already had in his hands a copy of my annulment papers from the I-129F that my fiance submitted. The documents that we submitted with the I-129F are the ff:

    1) Decision

    2) Certificate of Finality

    3) Certificate of Registration

    4) Copy of Marriage Contract with annotation declaring my marriage null and void

    I still brought with me a copy of everything listed above during my interview just to be sure. I did not have a letter from the Solicitor General (and the consul did not ask for it) but if you have a copy of that, submit those or bring them with you during the interview.

    Hi. My husband has received my CR1 packet but the letter showed my maiden x x x All our NOA1's and NOA2's were in my married name. x x xCan I just tell the consul at the time of my interview to put the visa under my married name? :unsure:
    Hi jpg,

    Yes, you may have the document corrected at the time of the interview. Rebelheart’s son had his name corrected during the interview.

    I put your name under our CR-IR list. I hope you’re okay with it :thumbs: By the way, what's your hometown and your husband's homestate? Please provide us also with your Manila case number, date of receipt by Manila embassy of your case file and date you received your packet.

  8. Hey, congratulations rye! :dance: Waiting to hear now from spunky.

    I wonder what happened to Nakashima. If you are reading, we'd like to hear from you regarding your AR. As for my AR, another hearing is scheduled for next week, Tuesday, 23 May. I'm hoping the judge is able to grant a favorable decision by then :clock:

    To JoelandAnalyn, have you tried calling the Dept of State to ask if you have an interview scheduled?

  9. Now i just got email from him and he says he is coming back through the guy who was letting him work and he dont need me. Makes me feel like a real fool. Oh he says he will be with me here but he doesnt want to come under my sponsership.

    Seems like your husband wants to salvage the relationship but does not want any help from you in coming back to the US since the relationship is very shaky at the moment. Maybe he doesn't want his immigration status to be hinged upon the success of his marriage to you.

    I guess you can say for sure that at least he did not marry you for the green card.

    Children Have Derivative Status

    The child of a fiancé(e) may receive a derivative K-2 visa from his/her parent’s fiancé(e) petition. You, the American citizen petitioner, must make sure that you name the child in the I-129F petition. After the marriage of the child’s parent and the American citizen, the child will need a separate form I-485 Application to Register Permanent Residence or to Adjust Status. The child may travel with (accompany) the K-1 parent/fiancé(e) or travel later (follow-to-join) within one year from the date of issuance of the K-1 visa to his/her parent. A separate petition is not required if the children accompany or follow the alien fiancé(e) within one year from the date of issuance of the K-1 visa. If it is long than one year from the date of visa issuance, a separate immigrant visa petition is required.

    Remember that in immigration law a child must be unmarried. The stepparent/stepchild relationship must be created before the child reaches the age of 18.

  12. Hi Wendy! Long time no hear. You're lucky you live in Texas and able to use DORA.

    Updated to congratulate rommelandrea! Good luck ryecatcher and spunky on the 16th!

  13. Hi rye,

    Port of entry will depend on the airline to be used and date of travel. I checked Northwest. The port of entry is either Minneapolis (MSP) or Detroit (DTW) going into Kansas City. You may want to visit Northwest's website at www.nwa.com for different ways to book your fiancee.

    For more info regarding the use of credit card and ticket issuance, you may want to call Northwest at 1-800-225-2525.

  14. Since her marriage has been annulled, your wife has the option to use either her maiden name or her new married name without need of a court order.

    If she is a first-time passport applicant, she only needs to present her birth certificate (BC) and the new marriage contract (MC). However, if she has an old passport with her old married name, she has to present the annulment decree in addition to BC and MC.

    Here’s an excerpt from a Supreme Court ruling regarding use of surname/married name in the event of annulment of marriage

    B. In the event of annulment of marriage —

    (1) If the wife is adjudged to be the guilty party, she must resume her maiden name and surname, but

    (2) If the wife is the innocent party —

    (i) She may resume her maiden name and surname, or

    (ii) She may choose o continue using her husband's surname unless —

    a. The court decrees otherwise, or

    b. She or he remarries (Art. 371, Civil Code)

    And here’s the link to the ruling: http://www.lawphil.net/judjuris/juri1995/f...94986_1995.html

  15. I’m sorry dmartmar that you’ve encountered a fraudster and I hope you find that special someone in your life. Another foreigner perhaps? Sorry couldn't help that one

    Well, the woman I'm currently seeing is from Mexico. :P

    :lol::thumbs::lol: You're a funny guy. Good luck on your new journey!

  16. If you've noticed a pattern, almost all fraudulent marriages involve or end up with the immigrant claiming being ABUSED by his/her USC spouse, which the 'CIS offers as an alternative mean for a GC.

    Admittedly, immigrant fraudsters and scammers have abused VAWA. And these fraudsters are the ones that make it hard for the legitimate people to get visa or GC.

    But there is also a pattern of abuse by USCs. VAWA was not offered before. It is precisely because of claims of abuse by the USCs that ‘CIS offered VAWA as an alternative to get GC. ‘CIS understands the sorry situation of an abused immigrant

    None of my posts are based on anger or frustration. Having experienced a fraudulent marriage myself and reading/sharing so many similar stories with other USCs, my posts are meant to help and advice anyone going through one, which BTW, VJ does not condone.

    Your last post did not have a trace of the usual sarcasm which I have come to expect from you. I kinda missed that ;)

    I’m sorry dmartmar that you’ve encountered a fraudster and I hope you find that special someone in your life. Another foreigner perhaps? :devil: Sorry couldn't help that one :D

  17. I wasn't very objective in my comments about dmartmar and I apologize for that :innocent: Sorry dmartmar, I did not mean to judge you. I can understand where you are coming from. All I want to say is that not all immigrants are scammers and fraudsters.

    Abuse can happen both ways ~ from the USC and from the immigrant SO as well. We just have to deal with the abuse the best way we can.

    Peace to all!

  18. i think he has a right to raise an eyebrow at some of the questions asked...x x x why is everyone so defensive?

    I take offense/defense when someone says that the foreign fiance/spouse is only after a green card when the marriage fails.

    The details as posted in the original post were not correct...
    This is not for me but for a co-worker. She will greatly appreciate any help anyone can give on this issue. She came here in January on a K3 visa and is at odds with her husband

    Okay, so maybe the OP missed to use a few noun/pronoun as do some of us here. So OP should have worded it … “This is not for me but for a co-worker’s friend. The friend greatly appreciate any help anyone can give on this issue.” So what’s the big deal with that? The thing is OP corrected the misconception. So why can’t we just accept it as that? Why do we judge and think the worst right away?

    Why don't you get a LIFE instead dmartmar! You are sooo pathetic!

    I have a life I can't complain about.

    I don’t think so, dmartmar. You are a complainer and a whiner. You have been duped by your foreign fiancee and you are projecting your anger and frustration to the other foreign fiancees/spouses in this forum. Get on with your life and move on. You have my sympathies though.

  19. He was obviously trying to start a flame war again...

    :whistle:

    Dmartmar is VJ’s resident devil’s advocate :diablo: . His comments make me laugh and shake my head sometimes. Woe to his fiancee, I’d hate to be in her shoes.

    But I give it to you dmartmar, you never fail to amuse me :yes:

  20. I've POE'd at DTW four or five times in the past and never had any problem with the Immigration people. The lines can be long (as DTW is a hub) but they were orderly. Maybe you travelled during the Super Bowl, Yodrak :lol:

    Charsi, maybe get a 3 hour lay-over. This should give you time to catch your breath. You'll be all right, you'll see :yes:

  21. Great advise, rye :thumbs:
