Hi, my niece American husband died, my niece is a Filipino citizen residing in Philippines. And she will apply the form I 360 and form I 485. My questions are: does she need to sent the I360 and I485 at the same time. Does she need to put it in separate envelope? Where is the proper agency to send the petition, is it in USCIS in the US or US embassy in the Philippines? Any input is appreciated. Thanks

You should still file taxes in the U.S. every year.

Thread is moved to the "Passports, etc." subforum of the US Citizenship forum.
Do I have to file even though I am not working but receiving Social Security?

Hi, I was born in Philippines and I am a naturalized US citizen and I want to stay and retire in Philippines. Can I stay in Philippines for years, maybe 5 years straight without coming back in the US and won't lose my US citizenship? I would appreciate any reply. Thanks.

This is about my close friend's case.... She's a US citizen now but she didn't mention child's name on the immigration papers because she doesn't know that she's alive. When she gave birth to her eldest daughter. Her mother told her that her baby died because the mother can't accept that her daughter was a single mom. She gave the baby to the couple who can't have kids. But the mother (the grand mother of the baby) is already old and sickly now, she finally told her daughter that her baby is alive and she gave it away. When my friend look for her daughter she found out that her parents listed on her birth certificates are already dead. They both undergo for a DNA Test to confirm that she's really the biological mother, the result is 99.9%... So they are going to legal process now that she's her daughter. Her question, can she petition her daughter in the US after everything will be put in place?

I am a USC and petitioning my unmarried 12yo son who lives in Mexico. I was never married to his mother. What are the odds of DNA testing? Is this very common? Thanks.
It depends in your interview. If the consul is not satisfied with all the evidence that you presented then, he will ask a DNA to prove that you are really the father.

A Permanent Resident petition her 19 years daughter. She got a receipt from USCIS dated April 18, 2017. Anyone here know the time frame of the approval of the I-130, Petition for Alien Relative of Permanent Resident? Because she's concern about the age of her daughter, she's almost 21 years old.

No PD date yet, I130 is not approve yet.

Youre right! I'll not try to panic lol. I just hope I'll pass the exam and interview, inshaAllah! Prayers Needed! ❤ well I was asking about some real chronic illness like arthritis etc. If they find something like this (using this just as an example. ) will they still deny? If you dont know and you tick no ( ×) will they believe you or deny the visa? Just asking. I'm okay now 😍
During my medical they did not asked if my husband has health insurance. I got arthritis and high blood. My blood pressure was really high, I told the doctor about it and she told me to take my medicine. The doctor also told me that I can get a good treatment in the US. My visa was approved during my interview. Don't be scared because like what JFH said
At the medical they are looking for-
- TB
- sexually transmitted diseases
- mental health problems that pose a risk to the safety of yourself or others
- drug and alcohol use

(Edited to correct previous erroneous response)
Yes and here is the official CBP page, OP this should also give you reassurance:
B-1 or B-2 Visas: During your visit to the U.S., you may visit Canada or Mexico for up to 30 days and re-enter the U.S. as long as you re-enter within the period noted on the Form I-94 which you received when you first entered.
Thanks for all this information. I really appreciate it.

Why did your sister think there would be a problem re-entering if she had a valid visa?
by the way do Filipinos require visas for Canada? That might have been an issue of course if she didn’t have one.
Yes, my sister has a valid 10 years multiple entry US visa. She's a permanent resident in New Zealand. During her visit for some reason we did not check this site if there would be any problem re-entering the US. My husband and I always go to Mexico to have our dental implants. We stayed at the hotel in the US side and we just walk and cross the border in the morning and come back to the US in the afternoon. My sister will visit me again and we are planning to cross the border to Mexico by walking and come back to the US in the afternoon. We can enter Mexico by walking with no problem, they won't check but coming back in the US, they will check everybody.

@DontAskWhy
For those parent's who were not married at the time of conception, I believe the Consul will accept the following proof of relationship and won't ask for DNA test,
1. Proof that you were in the same location, same country or living together
2. Proof that you have a genuine relationship, photos together, chatlogs etc
3. Proof of mother's pregnancy - ultrasounds, hospital bills, photos while pregnant
I was not able to provide all of those listed above so asked us to do DNA test. All 3 of us.
It is a hassle indeed specially for us because we've done the DNA test before using a home kit. But it will be a waste of application fees if we'll not proceed with what they ask... Such a pain.
I think the Proof that you've listed are still not enough. It is a case to case basis.... it depends on the situation or depends if the Consul officer is convince with the proof. Sometimes it is just one simple question and the CO was not satisfied with your answer and he will asked to do the DNA.
In my case, the Consul asked me what time I gave birth to my daughter.... I said, it's early morning. He asked, what time? I said I forgot the exact time, but I know it is around 5 AM. Yes, it is really around 5AM but I didn't know that he really want the exact time including the minutes LOL.... So, he asked to do the DNA. My daughter and I did the DNA and the result is 99.99%..... Now all I want to say, she is really my daughter.

I also want to know about it. When my sister came here in the US to visit me, we went to New York and visit the Niagara Falls. My sister got a tourist visa with a 10 years multiple entry visa. My daughter and I are US Citizen. We want to cross the border to Canada because we want to see the Niagara Falls in Canada side. I told my sister maybe she can just go to the middle of the bridge to see the Niagara Falls in Canada side but my sister just stayed in the USA side because she doesn't want to have problem coming back to the USA. I hope someone can share their experience about it because when my sister will visit me again, we want to go to Mexico.

I'm actually from Philippines.. And I know it's gonna be harder. But thank you guys for your response I really appreciate that..
Yes, it's harder. But you can try..... My sister in law own a business and has lots of properties in the Philippines, got money in the bank. She also traveled many times in Europe, she applied for a US Visa, she was denied. But my other sister in law, she and her husband just own a house in the Philippines, no business but got money in the bank, they got approved a US visa with a 10 years multiple entry visa. They come here in the US to visit their son every year. My sister she and her husband and kids are permanent residents in New Zealand, when she applied for a US visa she got approve right away, with a 10 years multiple entry visa. You can try, maybe you will get approve.... who knows.

Correction:
DNA Diagnostics Center
DNA Technology Park
One DDC Way
FAIRFIELD, OH 45014

Pat Simbulan..... Look for another AABB approved by USCIS for DNA testing. But just in case you need the address where me and my daughter had our DNA.
Here's the address:
DNA Diagnostics Center
DNA Technology Park
One DDC Way
FAIRFIELD, OHOH 45014
USI think it depends on the AABB approved by USCIS for DNA testing. 221g letter is ok. Most members here who had DNA just give that 221g letter. Because when my husband got the letter from USCIS, it is the same letter sent here in our home in the US, the 221g letter.

Interview at June 7 - CO requested for DNA. My daughter's visa got approved on July 25, 2012 . The whole DNA process was almost two months. The USC petitioner need to call the US Embassy to follow up, they are nicer to the USC. Ask them to connect to the supervisor because the supervisor who handle your case know the status.

Thanks to you all for the quick reply and good advice :)

I have a curious question, How long USCIS keep immigration documents after N400 approval? How long should we keep immigration documents after N400 approval? I appreciate any input. Thanks.
