Thank you aleful

She just requested it from the IRS and it will take 5 to 10 business days to gets it. Her ex husband dont want to give it to her.We are just wandering if W2 is enough to send the i864 now. Thanks for the reply

I need help, i have a joint sponsor for my i864 but I'm not sure if this is gonna work. She cant get her tax return copy from previous years but she has the W2s. I set his sufficient to show income or no? Please advice

Part 3. I check the #2 as I'm petitioning my parents also and yes wrote the name of 1 of your parents in member 1.

Part 3. (29) enter 2.

4. Enter your household income. Since your unemployed enter your husband annual income. This what I answer on mine and NVC accepted it. Just waiting for interview date now 

You dont have to do anything until NVC will contact you with their interview appointment. After u get their interview date then u can have them do their medical. You have to have the appointment letter for them to do their medical exam. I'm waiting for my parents interview date appointment now. I called NVC and they said they will contact me as soon as they will get to set up the interview date with manila consulate 

hello peps, just need some help here. I'm filing I-130 for my parents, I'm a US citizen. do I need to file I-864/864a for each parent? please help. thanks

hello all... you guys dont have to argue over this, my friend dont come here in the US just to get a greencard and she's on her way back to her country already. dont care if she will not be able to enter US again and one thing she cares is that she loves her husband but she has to love herself before anybody. thank you all for the reply on my post..god bless

hi what I think your friend should do is leave that man, honey USCIS will take her case very suspicious if she decides to stay believe me she wont even have a chance to stay ! I think she should go back to her country since she is only in america to be with her husband and not because she wants to be there u know what I mean.

and no she cant forgive him he is to much of an as... to pay for a green card then cheat on his wife wat dumbss just as an advice the best thing you should do as her friend is support her and dont let her go back with that guy.

she got to print out the conversation of her husband and the girl with nasty msgs on each other that is supposed to be a wife and husband thing.i read everything and even the guy accepted that he was wrong of taking that girls fantasy talking about the other girl. And sorry to the wife and not do it again and that he need her as he cant take care of his adopted son well and that he loves her very much . the guy even telling the other girl about what happen between him and his wife behind the close door and this is so ridiculous. if he love his wife as what he said he shouldn't tell anybody that your wife is not good in sex.. i feel so bad and i think the wife is wanting to go back to her country as soon as she can save enough money to buy the ticket back home. thanks for reply.

thats what me and my spouse think she only be here to be a live in nanny and a toy for him to play with.

From what the OP is saying, the husband was the first person not wanting to do any co-mingling of financial resources. I quote:

"the husband knows that she has to support her grandma and the guy promise that he will help to support...

the guy make her sign a pre-nup which is she dont hesitate to sign as she never meant to marry him for his money, months after and so, things make complicated as the wife ask her husband if they can send some money to granny and the guy is not happy about it and now starting counting the money he spent for her...

the wife wanted to work as her husband dont want to help her support the granny, husband gets mad and dont want her to work,he told her that your job is to take care of my child.the wife gets worry as her granny is very old and cant work anymore, then finally the husband let her work as part time only but he wants to take her pay as he said he need to track how much she make or where she spent her income but in the first place she is not on his bank account or any other property as he dont want her to have any acess for what he has and dont give her any dime as the husband said she dont need it."

Does it look like he wants to have a joint budget or like he wants to have his money and hers too and not let her in on anything? I think if it was actually a joint budget it'd actually be much easier for her. And he should'n've promised to help if he didn't intend to.

It really looks like emotional violence to me. He is turning her into a slave, which is especially easy since she is in a foreign country with no family in it. Like some other people said on this thread - looks like he was looking for a housekeeper (and a cheap one), not a wife.

basically if she has her 10 year card issued, she is good to do whatever she wants

if she still has her 2 year card, then she will have an extremely difficult time with removal of conditions and will most likely have to leave

yes she only a 2 yr greencard. in fact she only been here in the US for 9 months, and this is what happened.

her husband dont hurt her physically but emotionally. she said she wants to go home but being a friend i think she is better off here in the US to work so she can help her granny. I can't make her decide yet as of now as she is very hurt.she loves her husband more than anything. I am not in the position to dictate her what she supposed to do as she is on the right age to decide for her self. i just want to know your opinions of her situation if she decide to stay without her GC on hand yet and wants to leave her husband.All i can do know is to listen to her and being supported whatever she decide... thank you guys for the inputs.

to be honest she so lost right now and dont know what to think, but i try to told her that my door is open for her if she wanted to stay here in the US. I am just trying to get some information what are her options if she wants to stay

If ever i will help her to stay her in the US as she is very good girl and i really feel bad for her situation, can we change the address on the uscis so they will not send it to her husband home address? does her husband can stop the processing of her greencard? she have it already but send it back as the husband wants his name on her GC.

i need some information, i knew a couple that having a problem with their marriage life, the guy expect the wife to stay at home and take care of his adopted child, the girl raised by a grandmother and dont have parents as she grow up to help her grandma, now before the girl left her country, the husband knows that she has to support her grandma and the guy promise that he will help to support, when she came here they got married and the guy make her sign a pre-nup which is she dont hesitate to sign as she never meant to marry him for his money, months after and so, things make complicated as the wife ask her husband if they can send some money to granny and the guy is not happy about it and now starting counting the money he spent for her. they apply for a greencard but as soon as she receive it he returned it to the uscis and wants his last name to be used which is the wife agreed on it.now the wife wanted to work as her husband dont want to help her support the granny, husband gets mad and dont want her to work,he told her that your job is to take care of my child.the wife gets worry as her granny is very old and cant work anymore, then finally the husband let her work as part time only but he wants to take her pay as he said he need to track how much she make or where she spent her income but in the first place she is not on his bank account or any other property as he dont want her to have any acess for what he has and dont give her any dime as the husband said she dont need it.Now the wife felt he is very controlling to her, all she wants is to have her own income and can help her granny. husband keep counting the money he spent to get her and filing the paperworks and the wedding and the whole nine yards! one day the husband forgot sign out his facebook and when the wife open the fb page it pops up the husbands page and busted him for chatting another girl and telling the other girl how he regrets marrying her. the wife is so devastated and broken badly, she wants to go back to her country but her GC is still on process... Guys i need your opinion for this situation, what is my friends option if she wants to stay her in the us what are the chances of her not getting her GC ?

I got another question???? Im here in the US,me and my husband petitioning my kids my question is,when the NVC contact us for some paper works to be filed out and send it back to them, (AOS,DS????,etc.) They are going to contact the beneficiary also right? How that works if they send a letter to the beneficiary and they will send it to the kids name,kids can't sign a registered mail. And the address that the kids live dont have a house number,only a street number and town.address in a small town in the PH is so confusing because we dont have any house numbers.Im worried if the mail man cant find them and return the mail back to the NVC.im so worried about it.Im going back to the PH soon but i have to wait for the packet (AOS,DS?????,etc.) from NVC.some advice right there?

I set appointment for my fiance' renewal passport online. Appointment was on June 20, received his passport Jun 28 = 6 business days. Paid P950 for renewal but i dunno about getting an actual passport. Then P150 for delivery express.

Go online and set appointment first: http://www.passport.com.ph/ all the requirements is there.

Just thought I'd share my piece!

thank you guys for the reply,got an idea now how the passport processing goes.just need more than enough time to go back to the philippines and get their passport before we receive a medical exam appointment

express processing 1,200 7 working days; normal processing 950 15 working days. you can check it out, here's the dfa website http://www.dfa.gov.ph/main/index.php/consular-services/passport/passport

thank you much i did see this on the dfa website but somebody told me that was before they said it will take a month or more to get a passport now.but i appreciate the reply.

hello, i was wondering if anybody here knows how long it takes to get a philippines passport?i heard a rumors that it will take 1 month or two to get the passport but i was looking on the DFA website and it say 12 days or shorter to get the passport.i dont know if this is an old processing time frame or what?please let me know,thanks

Hi all,

My huband and I are gathering information for our I-130. We have tried to find a lawyer who was commenting that our case will be a tough case. I don't know what can I do to make things easier.

1) We didn't have joint bank account / property. Since we have lived at two different countries, my husband was trying to look for house in the states. We would like to make the decision of the house after my arrival to the states. We are completely financial independent to each other during our courtship. And we are planning to have joint acct in the states later. Question - is there a way to work around it and proof the US govt that we do have intent to setup a joint property and accounts.

2) I have been in the states to study and work for 11 years. I had left the states before my visa expired. The lawyer said this is going to be a bad sign for the govt saying that I am using marriage as a tool for the green card. I am upset when i heard that. I met my husband almost two year before my departure. We had been friends. Until 10 months before my departure, we started to date and maintained long distant relationship ever since. We had maintained for almost a year of long distant relationship and we had decided that we really want to spend our life together for the rest of our lives. So we married at HK last month. I know I marry for the right reason. But we are worry the govt will see it otherwise.

Please suggest any way to make this works?

Thank you....

i think you dont need a joint account as of now.all you need is that you guys have a proof that you been together for a long time and have proof that there is a communication showing your relationship with each other such as mails,email,phone calls and pictures that you spend time each other

You need the I-864; the I-134 is only for non-immigrant visas such as K1.

ok,thank you guys....

anybody knows what form do we need to filed for the affidavit of support?there are two forms and wasn't sure which one. can we download the forms and file it now or we have to wait for NVC to send the form to us? And what is the DS3032 means?(choice of agent)

my moms life is very complicated.she was an adopted daughter,the people adopt here pass away forever and never told her where she from what is real name,who's her biological parents or anything about her real life.it sad to say but she don't know who she was. that's why she don't have any identification at all.

You can't get an interview without a valid passport. One of the requirements for the NVC stage is a photocopy of the beneficiary's valid passport, so your children can't get past NVC without them.

Your mom can get a postal ID or a voter's ID. I think even an NBI clearance is acceptable. Those are some examples of ID's that are easy to obtain.

PS. I'm sorry to hear about your mom. we tried that already,i send my mom some money to get her any valid ID's and nobody give he because she dont have birth certificate. i cant even give her a power of atty for her to do paperworks for the kids while im here in the US thats why im wondering if anybody can advice me about this matter.i hate to fly to the Philippines now and be stuck there.

Quick question, how did u get an expedite for them?

we call USCIS wanting to expedite the I-130 and they ask reason why we need to expedite the petition.my mom has cancer and she have our kids so we sent a medical certificate of my mom to the USCIS

anybody here filed a I-130 for minor children? will you share your experiences for processing all the paperworks.we have filed i-130 may 8,2012 as expedite. we got NOA1 may 10,2012. Got NOA2 june 17,2012. our kids dont have passport yet and i cant assign my mom to assist the kids to get their passport done because my mom dont have any ID's at all.im here in the US right now, do i need to go back to the phil now to get the kids passport ready before the NVC assign a case number to us and schedule the interview or i have to wait. i need some advice,im working at the school district and i cant leave my job right now and be suck in the Phil to finish the processing and take the kids back here with me.Please Advice,thanks
