So I petitoned my parents and they arrived in US 2014, they've been here for 3 years now and still doesn't enjoy living here. They want to go back to Phillipines and stay there for 6 months,  come back here and stay for a month or 2 then head back to Philippines.  I'm worried that if they'll do that,  it'll trigger abandonment of LPR status. Also, is there any way to change green card status to tourist visa instead?? 

I petitioned my mom and dad for IR5. And today, my mom and dad just had their interview in US embassy. After the interview, the consulate said, just wait for their passports to be mailed. And didn't mention if they paased or failed. They didn't get any pink slips or asked to pay for any courier fee. So, does it mean, they failed?! I'm so dead worried right now..

so glad that my parents passed the physical exam inspite of my mom's health condition and recent illness of my dad. anyway. they already have an interview date on march 13, and was wondering, what is the next step after physcial exam and before the interview? do they still need to pay for visa interview fee in BDO or is that covered by IV bill?

please help.. we're almost done, and i don't want to screw up the process. thanks!

I'm petitioning my mom and dad and I received an email that they are scheduled on March 13, 2014. Yay!!

But what do i do next? Can they just walk in to St. Lukes Medical Center for their physical test or do I have to set-up appointment?

Please help me step by step instructions on what to do until they finish the interview.

Thanks!!!

Hello Everyone! I filed I-130 to my mom and dad last October 27, 2012. Received a letter of receipt Nov 1, 2012 and USCIS cashed my check. February 15, 2013 when I received a letter that my petition is approved and will forward all our papers to NVC. Today, I received a letter from NVC that we are eligible for further processing and is asking for AOS payment of $88. It says there not to pay AOS fee twice. So does it mean, I only need to pay $88 one time even I'm petitioning both of my parents? When do I send proofs of my affidavit of support? I know we're almost half way there, but until now, I'm still confused of all the steps. Please advice. Thanks!

Hi guys! I'm planning to send my I-751 this coming July 5th. I completed all the requirements needed. But I don't know what to do next? Should I go to their office and submit all the paper works or send it thru mail?

If mail, should i enclose all proofs that I'm still with my hubby? Where should I mail it if I'm from San Diego, CA?

Or If I have to show up in their office, should I schedule an appointment first before going there? Or walk ins are accepted?

PLEASE HELP! My GC will expire at the end of August.

Thanks!

we had our AOS interview in Chula Vista and it is scheduled at 7:45am. we arrived 30 minutes earlier and they interviewed us 15 minutes earlier than our scheduled time. We were interviewed by immigration officer Williams. She was very nice and friendly so we felt comfortable while she's conducting our interview.

she asked for the original copy of my birth certificate, my passport, my husband's passport and an original copy of his naturalization papers. and that's it!

she didn't even bother asking me for the vaccination supplement in the sealed envelope, joint bank accounts, health insurance, life insurance, retirement plan etc.

then she started asking these following questions:

1. how did you meet?

2. when and where did you first meet personally?

3. how did my husband proposed?

4. when and where we got married?

then she asked if we have pictures together. so I gave her our album and asked us to tell something about the pics.

after that she just checked all our papers in her folder and said that everything looks fine and complete. and told me that my GC will be mailed 2-3 weeks from now. she reminded us that we have to file form 751 90 days prior to the 2 years expiration of GC. and I'm eligible to file for US citizenship 3 years from now.

and that's it. she greeted and assisted us in the hallway.

we we're so relieved. finally, 2 years free from immigration paper works.

reviewing for NCLEX and eventually job hunting are next on my list.

i just want to thank VJ for all the guidance while completing all our paper works. this process won't be easy without this website.

hi everyone! sorry for not responding on time.

i asked my husband to read all your post and he agreed to share his password with me.

we already have good communication and there's really an improvement. he's more open about his feelings.

and i feel more safe and secure now. it's nice to know that after reading this thread,

he changed his attitude to save our marriage.

as for me, i try to be more understanding and i always tell him how i feel.

he was quite disappointed that i posted my problem here in VJ, but I told him that i just have to vent it out since i can't tell

my family about this coz i don't want them to worry.

we just arrived from an out of town trip. trying to reconnect and remove all the gaps between us.

visajourney has been very helpful to me, not only with my immigration paper works, also in personal and married life.

thanks everyone for sharing your thoughts. God bless us all.

his mom talked to me about this and told me that i should relax since the girl who keeps on bugging him is in the Philippines. i told her that it doesn't follow that just because the girl is not in US, i'm already safe from infidelity. she asked me to give my husband more time adjusting in our new life sine we're only 3 months married. she also added that my husband is not used to share everything since he is only child. (i really don't know what to feel after our conversation. ofcourse she's the mom of my hubby.. she'll defend him no matter what.)

i'm pretty sure that the nude pics are not spam. i already have a copy of the nude pics and the email address of the girl. i emailed her about this and ofcourse, as expected she's not replying. (i also find it weird that the girl uses 2 different names)

i talked with my husband and told him that i can't forget what happened. it even haunts me in my dreams. he said that i'm his wife and he married me, that simply means, he wants me, not the girl. i answered him that marrying me is not a proof that he won't cheat on me.

while browsing his email, i also checked his facebook and friendster, and saw the name of the girl is blocked. he assured me that he's not cheating on me. but how can i have my peace of mind if he won't give me his passwords? i don't know if i still have to push him to give me his codes. i don't want to have another argument.

i don't know if i should be regretful that i invaded his "online privacy". i know it's bad but what if i'm still completely clueless about it? what will happen to me and in our relationship?

i told him that i left my family and job in Philippines just to be with him and i don't deserve to be treated like this. i rather go home if he'll just fool around. but he begged not to leave him.

i love him and i know he loves me too. but why is this happening to us? i thought that we'll be living in a perfect world. is there a such? (i know, this is the bad effect of reading too much fairy tales.)

i'm so confused, i trusted him so much that i never expected this coming. i really don't know what to do. my mind says not to trust fully and dig for more info until i reach my peace of mind. but my heart says, take all the risk and give him another chance. i know he's a good man, just a bit childish.

i prayed to God to give me a sign. should i stay or should i go? 2 days after the confrontation, i received a letter with our interview appointment. i don't know if i should take this as His sign.

You are asking for a lot, aren't you.....

i hope you'll understand that i need advices. not that kind of post your giving.

don't add up to my frustrations.

You are asking for a lot, aren't you.....

the OP is soliciting advices not your sarcasm....sheess

thanks Mrs. Cage..

i'm still waiting for my ATT. is it true that BON in CA gives harder exams?

i hope NCLEX passers can give us a lot of advices. sana lahat tayo maka pasa.

GOd bless..

ok, i'll try to make the story short.

my husband fell asleep while he's in the computer. out of my curiosity, i checked his emails and friendster/facebook since he's still logged in.

(i really don't know his passwords.)

i caught that there's a girl sending him nude pictures in his email and calling him "baby".

i felt so disappointed that i confronted him about it. he told me that he never denied that he's already married, and showed some emails from that girl saying"i find married guys more exciting. so i don't care, let's just enjoy baby." i don't know what to feel. (knowing that the girl is also from Philippines)

i told him to give me his passwords, but he won't allow me. saying that he wants to have privacy with his messages. i do trust my husband, but this issue is affecting our married life. i really can't trust the girls around him. am i having some insecurities issue?

i told him that i just want to go back in my home country if he'll just play around. but he won't allow me, instead he promised and assured me not to do anything that would harm our relationship.

i just want it to be fair since he knows all my passwords. but he really won't give me his codes.

am i being over protective or over acting about this?

IS THERE REALLY A THING CALLED PRIVACY BETWEEN MARRIED COUPLE? ARE THERE REALLY LIMITATIONS?

thanks for the advices.

i applied for DL in DMV CA but it's been 2 months and i still don't have it.

i called to ask DMV office about it and told me that the card production was on hold since my I-94 is not valid anymore.

they will deliver the card as soon as they receive a go signal from INS.

i already have my EAD card, but still they won't give me the DL

#######!

i feel sorry for your fiancee..

she went through all of the process just to be with a troll like you.

BOO!!!!!!

i received a letter today from DHS. our interview appointment will be on August 13, 2009.

Uy, congrats! Ang ganda mo naman at ng iyong dress, summer na summer ang dating. Ang ganda din ng flowers. In full bloom.

Felb, na-miss ko tuloy ang isaw. Yum-yum.

Hello! Are there any nurses here? RNs? USRNs?

I finished college in Philippines. I'm now living in San Diego with my hubby.

I'm planning to take NCLEX that's why 2 months ago, I requested my school to send my requirements to BON.

and now I'm confused.. what is the next step? I'm not yet done with my fingerprinting for NCLEX.

I haven't sent my application form with pay check.. coz I really don't know what name should I use..

In my diploma and transcript of records, I'm using my maiden name.

but now, in my id and employment authorization card, it's in my married name..

What should I do next? I believe my school papers are already in BON office.

and another question: where should I address the paycheck and how much is the application and examination fee?

any advice will help. salamat!

we applied AOS last May 20. Had my walk in biometrics last June 2.

i received an approval email dated June 20 24 and i received the actual employment authorization card yesterday, June 27.

accoring to my timeline status, EAd was approved in 37 days.
