  1. Do not involve yourself in a complicated chaotic situation. It looks like a scam. It's like playing in the quicksand. Save yourself from headaches, heartaches and whatever aches. You've got all the time in the world to call off everything.

    There are a lot of other Filipina women who are better than her; from a good family, with a wonderful upbringing, and well-educated. Do not settle for less when you know you deserve the best.

  2. If you have joint bank accounts and a bunch of other stuff in both of your names, I don't see why a house being in just his name would be a problem. Many married couples have it like that, for a number of reasons.

    Joint bank accounts won't stand alone, it needs a mortgage/lease or major purchases (like car) as a support evidence showing both husband and wife's names. Utility bills and like you've said "a bunch of other stuff" are just secondary evidences.

    I've been there done that.

  3. Typical uneducated katulong Filipina. :whistle:

    No need to waste my time. :)

    Who is the uneducated here? You can't even refute me! Bahahahaha!!! This proves that all I am saying is true!

    You're a big freakin' scared BIGOT for calling me uneducated "katulong" (servant/slave)Filipina.

    You are so enslaved by your close mind and bigotry because your eyes aren't open yet about the reality of the world you're living in.

    The Kudos goes to me!!!

  4. Yaiiks.

    To say that freedom tastes better in your country is political.

    I am from the Philippines, too. If you're not happy here in the U.S.A.,

    I bet the Philippines will gladly take you back.

    I am not saying that I am not happy here. My husband is my home, shelter and happiness, not this country, where the basis of living is all about borrowing money to establish a life. Me, living here is not all about this country but about my family.

    CREDIT SCORE is BADLY NEEDED if you're living in the United States. CREDIT SCORE CONTROLS PEOPLE AND THE WAY OF LIVING.

    Millions and millions of Americans are working hard and earning good decent money but still, they have bad credit scores whereas, If you live in the Philippines, all you need is a steady job and income for you to be able to live your dream, get a house, send your kids to school, get a car and other life's comfort. Philippine banks does not require credit score and social security number.

    You need a comfortable home = MORTGAGE LOANS - Never had this loan back home

    You need new beds, sofas and appliances = Financing needed.... L.O.A.N.S. (No need for loans, I just need to work, save money and buy them one by one)

    You want to study college = STUDENT LOANS- Never had this loan back home

    You need CAR to buy a bottle of soy sauce from the grocery store = AUTO LOANS- Never had this loan back home

    I'm free from debt back in the Philippines. I don't even have a credit card. I'm just being realistic and not being blinded by the materialistic world; Materialistic world that can be satisfied by digging yourself deep down to debt, debt and debt.

    And if you don't like my comments here just stay quiet if you've got nothing good to say because I am not interfering with your life, I'm not soaking my toes in your comments. You started to bash me, so here I am.

    And YES! Philippines will gladly take me back with wide open arms because I am very capable of doing good things to my country and to my fellow Filipinos.

    I love the Philippines! In the Philippines, I don't need to drown myself in debt to get a car. I'll just go outside, flag a tricycle, a Jeepney or a bus to go to work or to go to different places.

    In the town where I grew up, cops won't pull you over because they want to generate revenue. They will pull you over if you're a fugitive, a rapist or you're a killer.

    If you make your own booze in this country, you'll be busted. In the Philippines, you can make your own coconut wine and sell it and earn a living without asking food stamps from the government or maybe pretending to be sick and not capable to work and receive disability pension. You can freely make your own living if you are really determined to feed your family. There are people selling food in the streets and no cop will bust your a**. You can put up a small food stand outside your house and earn without government intervention.

    Is this what you call freedom in America?

  6. Still no biometrics appointment.

    We called USCIS and spoke with one attendant, then to an officer, then made a request for service, and received a letter that we would get a biometrics appointment "when one became available".

    They already have her fingerprints. Fingerprints do not expire. Making people do them again and holding up their immigration because of it proves how idiotic this system is, if you assume this is a free country. If you assume it is a police state, then it makes perfect sense: do what they tell you, when they tell you, no matter how stupid, and do not ask questions. Then you have it right: the government is our master and we are the slaves.

    I'm starting to become an Anarchist, I'm serious. I don't believe in the American government anymore.

    Freedom taste better in my country. (Philippines)

  7. I am an August filer myself, (my current 2 year green card expires soon, Nov 19, 2011!), filed my I751 as soon as I was eligible.

    - I sent my package to the VT Center, their receipt date was 08/24/2011

    - My cheque was cashed on 08/26/2011

    - Notice date for Biometrics appt 09/07/2011

    - Biometrics appt 09/28/2011 10:00am

    - waiting..............!

    I had mailed in "evidence" of our marriage with the original package, copy of our marriage cert, copy of our home deed showing joint ownership, copy of our joint bank accounts, phone bills, utility bills, insurance policy info, copies of our DL showing our home address.

    After reading the forum, it sure sounds like a lot of you had mailed in pictures, I didn't include any!! To be honest, we've been married two years now, we've settled into our married life haven't taken a lot of pictures together (not like before when we were dating). Sad, I know, but most of the pictures on my camera were all of our DOG, since we don't have any kids! I mean, is this weird? Will they deny my application because I didn't send in any pictures??? I'm worried now because I REALLY don't want to have to resend an application and fork over another $590.... ugh!

    Is that reasonable??? I mean, all my husband and I do is work all the time, we haven't gotten a chance to go on any vacations, we're total homebodies, when we go out with friends, nobody takes pictures! And we're definitely not the type of people that like to publicize our relationship and post everything on facebook etc, does that make sense??

    Am I just dumb for not sending pictures in??? Should I have taken a bunch of pictures the day before sending my package in, just to have in the package???

    Hi Chapstick!

    We're like you, we don't have many pictures of me and my husband together. We do have 3 or 4 pictures and that's all. Because we don't like taking pictures. What I did to get more pictures of us together is, I emailed my sister-in-law, husband's aunts and cousins and asked them if they have pictures of us together during our family gatherings. I've asked them to email me some digital copies if they have. I also copied, saved and printed the facebook pictures from our families and friends' account that we're tagged in. It solved my picture outage problem.

    I read the I-751 instructions again and it says nothing about pictures, so I think you don't have to worry because you've submitted what the instruction is asking for and pictures are not primary evidences.

  9. John--Hi, I am in 100% agreement with Tahoma. Previous VJ posts describing CFO experience support Tahoma's description/response. Additionally, my fiancee recently attended the CFO seminar and she was asked to show proof of my (never before married USC petitioner) singleness. My fiancee provided copy of my federal income tax return/ tax transcript showing that I filed as single. This was accepted at CFO as adequate proof. Another CFO seminar attendee at same session was asked to bring copy of her fiance's divorce papers. --RK

    I think these requirements to attend a CFO seminar are new additions. I remember when I attended the seminar back in February 2009, I did not submit any proof of my husband's (then fiance) singleness or tax returns.

    Tahoma is right! :thumbs: High 5!!!

  12. It's not as bad as it seems right now...

    By the time she gets an annulment, and you file another I-129F packet, and it reaches the U.S. Embassy Manila, you will have had more than three years of an ongoing relationship with your sweetheart, and possibly several visits with her in the Philippines. You will have loads of proof of an ongoing relationship with her. That's a lot in your favor. Yes, it's going to take time and money, but it's doable.

    When the time comes, go to her Embassy interview with her and both of you answer all of the questions honestly.

    Good luck.

    I 1,000% agree! :thumbs:

  13. You guys need a lawyer who is an expert with annulment cases. I have a best friend who underwent that and it took him 10 months from the 1st court hearing to court decision.

    Once she got annulled, you guys can do anything and everything freely and can file K1 or if you really really really love her and you can't wait any longer, marry her in the Philippines and file CR1 visa.

    I found this online. This article is entitled: Grounds for Annulment of Marriage in the Philippines http://www.bcphilippineslawyers.com/grounds-for-annulment-of-marriage-in-the-philippines/447/

    Don't lose hope and never give up!

    Good luck to the both of you :)
