What's PF?

Professional Fee

Doesn't sound credible to me. There are tons of graphic artists in the U.S. Sounds like you're looking for an excuse. It won't work.

There might be tons of graphic artist in the US and we will be looking at tons of PF as well. I am looking for an option here not an excuse.

I just started a business here and I am badly in need of a graphic artist. Its hard for me to look for someone that can satisfy my taste for designs most of the time his designs fits what I want for my business.

anybody who can lead me to the path for more information?

Any website you guys recommend that we can use to pay utility bills for our families in the philippines?

I am still waiting for mom's civil documents that she mailed 3 days ago via LBC.

Any suggestions will help.

Thanks!

Here's an answer to your question:

:: For K2, K3, K4 Visa Holders ::

As a holder of a K2, K3 or K4 visa you must first have an EAD from the USCIS. You will be required to

show this to the SSA agency to be eligible to receive a SSN.

To apply for a SSN you will need to go to your local SSA office and bring:

1.

The SS-5 form you downloaded and filled out (they have some at the office if you forget).

2.

Passport (with the K-2, K-3, or K-4 Visa in it)

3.

your valid I-94: Electronic I-94 Copy; or (for older entries) an original (and bring a front/backside copy) of a valid paper I-94

4.

another form of valid ID (as defined in the SS-5 instructions)

5.

A valid EAD

Only persons age 12 and older must apply in person. A derivitive visa beneficiary (K2 for example) may

elect to have their parent (the K1 for example) apply on their behalf (they will still need all the required

documents). The SSA will most likely need to verify the validity of the EAD and will make a copy to send to the USCIS as part of the SSN processing. Once they verify the EAD you will receive your SSN card in the mail.

You can check on the status of your SSN application and/or often get the SSN in advance by returning in person to the SSA office. If you need your SSN before it arrives in the mail you may ask them for an SSA-7028, Notice to Third Party of Social Security Number Assignments, to be sent to your employer or other interested third party once a SSN has been assigned. Your card, when you receive it, will be marked with the words "VALID FOR WORK ONLY WITH INS AUTHORIZATION" indicating to an employer that you must also have an unexpired EAD to be eligible to work.

I hope your friend applied for EAD too as that should come with in 2 months of AOS/EAD/AP application.

Good luck!

so the K2 needs to apply for EAD to get SSN, meaning the K2 needs file AOS as well because EAD will take a few months?

Did they apply for CRBA before and it was denied? If it was denied, the child must have LPR status, therefore should do AOS. What's the reason for SSA not to issue a number?

They said they need a DHS paper. we assumed that is the I-94 so they did but they still was refused to get one.

They didn't apply for CRBA because they did the k1/k2 instead. the son was born before my friend became USC

My friends fiance now his wife entered with a K1 visa with their 6 yr old son.

They tried to get the K2's SSN but SSN said they cannot issue him SSN. He wanted to apply for his sons medical coverage already and cannot do so without the SSN.

Since the son is under 18 and being my friend is a USC, can he apply for his sons US passport? But then again, US Passport requires SSN that he doesn't have.

up to when do they need to file for the adjustment of status? They are thinking of applying for the sons US passport so he doesnt need to be included on the AOS or does he need to be added first then apply for the US passport after?

Thank you.

Hope to hear from you...

People inputs please?

My mother tried to get an NBI police clearance from the Phlippines and they said there is another person with the same name as hers and has to wait til the 14th to get it.

My question is, she recently got an NBI clearance when she renewed her passport but that has the purpose I think it states that it is for passport purposes.

Can she use that NBI Clearance that she has right now or wait until the 14th?

Thanks

I have to answer this question for my mom:

Well if they told you to use that, you're probably fine. Is that number different form total gross?

The instructions are very clear on that though:

For purposes of this affidavit, the line for gross (total) income on IRS Forms 1040 and 1040A will be considered when

determining income. For persons filing IRS Form 1040 EZ, the line for adjusted gross income will be considered

http://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/files/form/i-864instr.pdf

For 2011 and 2012 both lines are the same line 22 (total income) and line 37 (adjusted gross income) but 2013 is different.

Oh no i sent it already. I used the total adjusted gross income. The last line on the 1040 form. I called nvc and thats the figure they want me to use
