im from phils too.. i will have my citizenship test june 17th. and as soon as i have the certificate on my hand i will petition my mom also. my question is": Do i need to submit my mother's birth certificate together with the I-130? or just MY birth cert showing her as my mother?

i am scheduled for an interview this june 17. ok i applied based on a 3 year marriage to a USC. i submitted 3 years tax returns which ours was prepared by H&R. I requested a transcript just today. In case my transcript won't arrive in four weeks which is my interview date, is it ok to bring my H&R tax returns? or do they really need that transcript? my field office is Memphis. please give me some insights. thanks

i finally got my interview letter last sat 5/16... my interview date is June 17..pls update my timeline...i dunno how to do it lol...

i applied N400 based on a 3 year marriage to a USC and i have our 3 years tax returns from H&R. i want to bring tax transcripts on my interview..please give me the website or form where i can apply for transcripts..thanks a lot.

Hi ikyang.... I've been checking the March thread everyday to see if there was any updates to your timeline as my office is also Memphis. I'm glad they are not way behind - I have heard they are slow....

Here's a link to form 4506-T, Request for transcript of taxreturn. There's also a number on there that you can call to request the form.....

Good luck and please let us know how your interview in Memphis went!

im worried i dont have my interview letter yet.......

Good deal. Your on the right track.

i submitted my n400 last march. i did not mention about my 2 speeding tickets because i thought it is not supposed to because i only paid $80 each ticket. am i not in the right track? im now worried.

i will have my fingerprint at 1pm today...i've got my notice, greencard and passport. am i missing something? just want to make sure. and also are they going to take our photo again during fingerprint appointment?

im curious, if one filed for US citizenship based on a 3 yr marriage to a USC, after the oath taking and US citizenship application successful, is their a minimum number of years requirement to be married to the USC?

update my timeline pls....my biometrics appointment is 4/7/2009......i had my bio last feb 2008 for my I-751, and i will do it again this april for naturalization.

The same length of time that it takes to petition for a spousal CR-1 or IR-1 visa. Review the timelines for CR-1/IR-1 visas and filter for PI.

im from PI, anybody can give me an estimated number of months to petition a mom to US?

wait for your divorce decree and then file for removal of condition. abuse is very hard to prove.

I am just speculating based on common scenerio I have seen multiple times (at least among indian marriages).

how dare you speak from direct experience? how dare you report what you know from observation? that kind of behaviour will get you banned around here if people get offended by your retelling of the truth...

Stop your shots justashooter, you shoot good but not on target.

How do you want people to speak? Its better to speak from direct experience than indirect. And report what we know from observation than a dream.

And its not offending. Its the truth. Every country has some sort of profile where something good comes out of it. The Indians have arranged marriages, the Filipinos have mail order brides. And most of these marriages turn out wonderful, a few turn bad. That's with any group . Someone earlier said Chinese are associated with porn stars and prostitutes. That is just a few again. Most of the Chinese I have known are engineers and scientists. They have great spouses and wonderful family lives.

Just a few bad examples in a group doesn't make it bad.

"Filipinos have mail order brides?????!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Maybe, maybe not...but either way, it's a good feeling that american men doesn't care to spend dollarsssss just to get a very good wife. hhhmmm i guess they can't find one in their neighborhood and have to travel at the other half of the world to find their happiness...

i am now on the process for my citizenship, and as soon as it is done i will apply to petition my mother.....my BIG problem is...on my birth certificate her name is misspelled....the last letter of her name SHOULD BE E, but is shows A....just a typo error...when i submit my I-130, do i need to submit other proofs? all her docs like her marriage cert, her birth cert, her ID, my baptismal cert, all these docs has the correct spelling of her name....pls advise me what to do! thanks in advance.

Send in an affidavit that shows this & that person are the same and belong to one person, your mom.

thanks mooninlove...im from PI too...

my field office is Memphis TN..please update that for me..dunno how to do it..thanks again.

please somebody update my status...ive got my NOA yesterday and its dated 3/13..thanks

ahhh, those filipino girls are quite known for these types of scams. in an effort not to help her out, DO NOT CANCEL YOUR I-129F! Let it sit there, if you dont send the affidavit of support, she will never be able to come here. Likely she's b.s.ing the 50yr old guy into the same thing as you... a free ride to the US. As long as an open I-129F exists, she won't get approved at interview. What she will hear, is a can of whoop a$$ from the consulate about having 2 open petitions, and her claims of "love" in both.

She screwed you, now time to screw her over as well.

*coughs* excuse me, not all!

if one did a horrible thing that does NOT mean they are all the same, ha!

Did I say all? No. But you can sure bet on the number of these fraudster chicks being quite high, as the Phillipines are a high fraud country.

are you bitter? phillipines is a very beautiful country! save money and try to see the place. you will enjoy dude!

please give me the site or link on the step by step procedures on how to get my mom here to US. thanks

thanks for your reply longtrip. now that gives me an idea.

how long does it take for our N-400 application? i live in TN.

hi...just an update..my check was cashed yesterday...i sent my docs 3/5/09...thanks...now waiting for my NOA

based on your experiences friends, how long will they cash your check? i sent mine the 5th of march and they got my packet the 6th...ive check my bank, no check been cashed yet.

anybody here who filed march 09, got NOA? or check cashed?

just recently sent my application, based on a 3 year marriage too. to prove that we are still married and live together i send:

1. joint bank accounts

2. lease info, just a letter from our lienholder, notarized, we dont have a formal lease agreements, with copies of the checks that we paid him monthly to verify that the person who wrote the letter is our real landlord.

3. 1 electric bill- both our names on it.

4. title of our car-both names

5. insurance- both names

6. 3 year tax returns- married filling jointly.

no kids together! and i hope my docs are sufficient enough....i already submitted a whole bunch on my I-751.
