    This desire is prevalent, perhaps nearly universal, among Filipinas who come to the U.S.  It's cultural.

    You must completely determine the extent of this support before you marry.

    If you yourself intend to build a financially secure family life, and she's sending your/her money home, then what?

    it truly depends on how much money. As of right now i have a pretty decent job. And what’s considered a relatively small amount of money here, will be more then enough to support her mom over there.

    many have mentioned supporting her family

    You need to understand that u r not just marrying her / you are marrying a family

    and family expects certain things 

     

    You can apply anytime for the K1 with more visits in the future between now and interview /1 visit for 1 week is lame

    and meeting where at age 15 or 16?

     

    Do u fully understand the income levels u need to sponsor?

    Add to that additional travel to strengthen the case and the cost of marriage and AOS

    yes i do, and all of these such requirements are met. And when it comes to supporting her family, yes i do understand. If the visa were to be approved, we will both be working, we will both have enough money to send back home. I was thinking around 20-40 a week. It doesn’t sound like a lot for many us citizens, but it will be enough to help her family.

    If your relationship is genuine and you are both certain that doing this at such a young age is the right thing, then the timing of your application alone would not be grounds for denial. 

     

    You need to be fully understanding of the legally binding contracts you, and likely your family, will be entering into by petitioning her. It is not just simply asking for her to move to the US. Should the marriage not last (and I do say this as you are both so young, I'm sorry) you, and likely your family, are becoming contractually bound to support her financially up until her own citizenship. If you divorce and she won't or can't work, you are responsible. 

     

    Please be aware of what this process means for all involved, in both best and worst case scenarios. 

    Thank you! Yes i belive we are both ready. I feel sure that the marriage will last, but even if it doesn’t i’m prepared for that. At least we had that time together and she has a chance at a better life for her and her family. But i’m not to worried that it won’t last, especially before she has work clearance, because we will be living together anyways. Thank you for your help.

    Do u meet the poverty guidelines for income?

    How much time together?

    does her family approve?

    Can you afford health care insurance for her?

    Can you afford the over $2000 for her to adjust her status after arrival in the US?

    Are either of you students with promise of a good future job?

    would you be able to supply a joint sponsor for the income?

     

    yes to all of those.
