    Hey, Have you checked your/your fiance’s birth certificate? My husband was able to find his father’s full name there. He could not find the date of birth though, which he wrote “N/A” on. We filed a year ago and it was approved with no RFEs.

    Hello I wanted to know if you wrote unknown in the beneficiary father information I’m having the same problem ! Was it approved ?

    Hi all, I am a Filipino applicant for AOS (coming from K1), and my husband and I just filed AOS this month. It looks like AOS interviews are being scheduled earlier than usual! I just had questions. I may be off but my worries are if my interview is scheduled within 3 months since filing. If that were the case, what documents do you all recommend I should focus on preparing first? My guess is medical insurance is one strong evidence but what if the interview comes earlier before the cutoff date for my husband’s insurance application thing-y?

    It’s been a couple of months since my CFO experience. Based on my experience I will say this: Your overall CFO experience mainly depends on your counselor. 7 times out of 10 you will leave with a smile. To my surprise, I left with ugly tears. You will benefit bringing a police certificate. Also, show whatever you can show when asked. When you can, be polite and say “yes” to everything. Be kind. Delays can happen. Ideally you get your certificate the same day as your appointment. Delays can happen from two weeks to a month. I was lucky to only be delayed by two weeks. Smile. Be polite. Again, be kind. These are all things I wish I knew at the time of my CFO GCP. Good luck to all.

    Hey, update on this for anyone who may come across the post in the future: after marrying, I was only able to change my last name legally through the courthouse and social security. In our state here, we are required to file a petition for modifying our first name in any sort of way. So yes, I CAN change my first name and remove one of them, but it will mean going through another process aside from marriage. Hope this helps.

    Hello :). I'm a Filipino spouse who recently got married and we're hoping to get some guidance regarding a portion of Form I-485. On the public charge question on item number 61, I answered "Yes," but now I'm required to state more information, specifically assets and liabilities. We are seeing to provide the values of my husband's assets on Form I-485 and not Form I-864, but we are wondering: - Will refusing to declare assets on Form I-864 after providing the values on Form I-485 be a problem or cause an RFE in some magical way? - Will we be required to provide additional evidence of my husband's assets (mainly savings) even though it's not on Form I-864? - Will we need to provide additional evidence for providing the values of the household liabilities as well? Appreciate the help. We're hoping to file in about a week. Thanks!

    Hello, all. Just had a question on something someone here might have already went through. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I can change my name through Social Security to whatever I want it to be (?). My K1 visa and CFO certificate is approved (yay!), and flight is nearing, and I’ll eventually get to applying for my SSN soon. I have two first names like many Filipinos. I really want to get rid of my first first name and only keep my second first name (Howard), but is that recommended to do? In general with immigration? Will it cause any problems for when I later on return to the Philippines and my name is different there, or when I give my birth certificate anywhere during the immigration process and they see the name is different there? Hope someone has experience on this to share. Thank you.

    Hello, Filipino beneficiary here. My medical is halfway done, and after my interview, the CFO comes next. My fiancé and I have a 21 year age gap, and I’m only 20. I hear from others CFO will not like that. I honestly am more scared of it than the interview, where I could be talking to American consuls instead, because what if the CFO officer denies a certificates based on that age gap alone? The reason I’m worried is because of experiences I hear from my fellow Filipinos. The CFO is the bigger battle to me because sometimes its also fellow Filipinos who drag down other Filipinos. For those who know here, is there any tip or added step you guys could advise me? Additional documentation to show? Specific attitude? When to schedule even?

    Hello, My fiancé is a US citizen petitioner who is estranged from his father. He only knows his first and last name. He does not know his middle name, birth place, and area of residence. His mother has passed away, and nobody else in his life knows about his father. On his I-129F, is he allowed to write "unknown" on the appropriate spaces, or is it more appropriate to use "N/A?" This might sound like a silly question, sorry. The instructions on the I-129F don't seem to mention using "unknown" as a response. Edit: Is "unknown" more correct to use than "N/A" in this situation?
