Hello sa mga taga vj especially dun sa mga nakatravel na outside the US.

May tanung ako, emergency yung pag-uwi namin ng Pinas kasi namatay ang Papa ko. Isasama namin ang baby namin who is 4 months old. May required ba na vaccination na kailangan niya upon entering to a foreign country. Kasi di namin naisip yung pero makukumpleto na ang kanyang vaccination bukas then ang flight namin is sa SUnday na so kulang na talaga kami sa oras. In need ko bang dalhin ang kanyang vaccination record and is there really a required vaccine sa baby bago magbyahe..Please :help: :help:

First, I would like to offer my condolences for you and your family. I am sorry for your loss.

Yes, your daughter just needs her U.S. passport to travel. A tourist visa is valid up to 21 days. However, if you need to stay longer, you may avail of Balikbayan visa.

Balikbayan visa privilege is extended to the spouse and minor children of former Filipinos. You, your husband and child may avail of this visa. You would need to show 1) your current/expired Philippine passport, 2) copy of your marriage certificate, and 3) copy of your child's birth certificate. You would need to invoke this privilege when you arrive at Philippine customs. Balikbayan visa is valid for up to one (1) year.

You can verify this information by contacting Philippine Consulate General - Chicago. This office has jurisdiction over Mississippi.

Hello my fellow vjers.

Due to my father's death we will be in the Philippines next week. My question is, we wanted to bring our daughter with us. She is 4 months old and the quickest process we could get for her is her US passport. I am a Filipina and my husband is a USC. Is it possible that my daughter could travel with her US passport alone? Answers will be greatly appreciated.

hehe...mga waray pala tayo, astigin sabi nila hehe...ako sa E. Samar lumaki pero kabalo ko mag bisaya kay sa Davao man ko gianak

sana pag-uwi natin kita kits tayo...sa Aug naman sched ko vacation, excited na din ako,kumuha na din ako ng ticket...

Happy, lipat kaya kayo ng haws hehe, yng walang tornado na nakakatakot...dito ssa Vegas, mainit na kami sigh. Happy weekend mga frends!

Naku may mga waray pala dito. Mistisa waray din ako..Papa ko is from Almeria Leyte pero di pa ako nakakapunta dun bat proud to be waray..hehehehe

when i had my wife quite her job prior to moving to the states i had her give me a breakdown of what she made prior and what her bills were then from there we discussed what it would take for her to travel to see her outlying family and then from there worked up a budget it was around 14000 php a month and that included the expense of her brother living with her. most months this was enough and this was for general santos sometimes she would have extra to save sometimes she would need a little extra after savings was gone so to ask how much without having complete details of what expenses she has is hard to say but the key is to find out where she is at right now and help her to raise slightly but not to far to fast or she will not learn to budget just to spend because there it is cheap but here it is not

hope this helps and good luck

Share ko lang bagong pictures ni Mae

Super enjoy sa pool kanina halos ayaw ngang umahon..Hehehehe..Kaso umaambon na kaya ayun..

Where's your sense of adventure.

The worst part of teaching my asawa to drive was setting the example. No running yellow lights and racing to a stop.

Lol..I can relate to that. My husband told me when I drive, he would say, " baby your driving skills is weird..Lol :rofl: and he will always remind me not to follow the way he drive because he is pretty sure I will fail my road test exam when I get to that point..Lol..So far I always wind up driving to the ditch :rofl: but then I guess I am doing much better compare to the first time I drove. I told him, if it's a motorcycle, ding..it is much easier because I am used to it and been driving since I was 9 years old. I have to adjust a lot in the car..Well, not really driving a car but a pick up which is way to big for me and having a hard time seeing the dashboard..lol

Actually, the cebuano definition taken figuratively, would be a spoiled rotten baby.......

Nice save!!! :rofl:

Hi folks, some of you know my fiance is heading for US tonight POE LAX tomorrow evening. We were talking last night and she popped up with this nickname she said she wants to start calling me when she gets here...we normally call each other baby....but she used the words last night... "bb dunot" and said it means "bb love." I looked up dunot in several online cebuano/visayan dictionaries and dunot keeps giving a definition of "rotten, spoiled, decay." Is there a hidden meaning or slang meaning to this word?? Or is she calling me rotten baby??

Hi I am a Cebuano and yes what you have searched online was correct. I have no idea why your wife wanted you to call that name. Who knows she might have a different definition or different version of "dunot" on what it's meaning. But "dunot" basically is rotten, decayed or spoiled in our dialect which is Cebuano. Good Luck

Just wondering how long it took your wifey to adjust to US time...

It's about 5 days in now and she's still sleeping a lot during the day.

1 year 8 months and counting

Hi Jimbifi

Question lang po...

Anu anu yong mga possible question nung pumunta ka sa USEM?

Anu anu yong mga question na naitanung nila sayo?

thanks for your input and help.

Sweetdove

I can still recall my interview before 5 questions lang. Well sa pre-screener eh isa lang ata ang tanung niya lang eh kung saan daw kinuha yung pangalan ng hubby ko, siguro kapag hindi ko yung nasagot eh lagot ako kasi simpleng question lang yun it has played a very important role in my hubby's life kasi diba alam mo din ang detalyeng yun...lol..Sa Consul naman eh 5 lang ang tanung sa akin. In less than 3 minutes eh tapos na agad ako. Mabait yung Consul na napunta sa akin..Hehehehe..3 kaming magkaibigan sa iisang consul at lahat kami pink slip..hehehehe..Kaya sis, okay lang yan,normal lang yung kaba pero kaya mo yan

hi, thanks for the reply... iniisip ko kasi parang ang sakit umere hahaha... honestly un ung ikinatatakot ko... pero pg me nakikita naman akong bata naiinggit ako hehe...

I have the same fear pero gaya nga ng sabi ng ibang mga mommies dito eh wla kanang ibang gagawin kapag andun kana sa sitwasyong ito. Kasi parang utos na rin ng katawan ko at ng baby na umire kana..Hehehehehe..Para ka lang nagpopo yung pakiramdam. :rofl:

Sweetdove, sguro ask mo ung fiance mo na bisitahin ko uli para maipasa nyo ung requirement na "two-year-last-met".

Wahhhh last period ko ngstart March 6, anong petsa na ngayon, usually 5 days lng ngtatagal ung period ko, baka preggy ako hehehe... kinakabahan talaga ako... ewan ko... parang hindi pa ako handa mgbuntis....

Mga mommies dto, natural lng ba to na feeling? kinabahan din ba kayo before? Hindi ako ngpa PT kasi punta naman kmi sa OBGYNE this coming thursday dun na lng ako mgpaPT.

Hindi naman ako kinabahan, infact everytime na delay ako eh nagPPT ako agad..Hehehehe..In order words I was very excited to know kung preggy ba ako o hindi. Pero nung nanganak na ako and after a month na hindi dumating yung period ko eh dun kinabahan ako ng sobra kasi ayaw ko pang sundan si bulilit..Hehehehe..Pero thankfully God answered my prayers na wag muna kaya happy ako kasi dalaga na ako ulit after giving birth..lol

Mga mommies, may nagpipills ba sa inyo. Kasi one week na akong nagpipills at dinatdan ako ulit. Anak ng patong ganito ba talaga to. Twice akong nadatnan this month. Kasi sabi ng OB ko eh magstart ng pills sa first Sunday ng period at yun nga ang ginawa ko. Last week lang ako nagkaperiod ngayon meron nanaman..Hay kaloka.

baby ng kuya ko, wala pang one year old nakakalakad na without using walker...natatawa raw minsan yung mga tao kasi ang liit pa raw nakakalakad na... hay sana ganun din baby ko... its a girl so malamang unang makakalakad ang mga girl babies dito hehehehehe...

Speaking of lakaran, Si Mae eh mahilig tumayo and everytime na tumatayo siya tinatry niya lumakad and I was really suprised kasi nakakailang steps din siya at gustong gusto niya talagang ginagawa yun kapag gising siya. Pinakataas na lakad niya siguro eh mga 1 yard. May kasabay pang tawa at excitement na makarating dun sa person na tumatawag sa kanya habang hawak hawak ko siyang naglalakad..Hehehehehe..Nakakaexcite din tuloy..
