Hi to all ! I'm wondering if anyone here is already a member of Pag-Ibig. I just want to know more information about the program and if what is the requirements and the process, especially if you are not in the Philippines.

Thanks !

I am a member of pag-ibig fund when I was still working in PI. I had a housing loan with it for 13 years now which I am still paying a monthly amortization. I think they have a program for Filipinos who are working abroad (OFW). I'm not sure for those who are married to a foreigner. You can check their website at www.pagibigfund.gov.ph for more information.

i had my oath last thursday at shreveport louisiana with 21 newly american citizens from 14 countries. i will be applying for a passport tomorrow. good luck everyone.

Hey Guys,

Got my oath letter today, it will be on May 17, 2012. Good Luck everyone.

updated Nelly228 .. good luck !

i am using www.yeheytv.com

try www.yeheytv.com. it's free too.

i use this website too.. but be sure to close it when not it use to avoid virus or hackers.

Hi guys, just received my biometrics appointment. it will be on april 04, 2011...

I will be filing on January 10, 2011. Good Luck to us.

I sent my I-751 last January 10 and received 1 year extention letter today.

I am a Filipina living in Washington state. I have been here for more than a year but I only have one Filipina friend, My husband ntroduced me to her and she and her husband were very good people. I once attended a party for another Filipino here. My husband personaly knew her and they seem fine. At her house, she was always asking my husband about his ex-wife who happened to be her "bestfriend". I was so ridiculed and I felt I am not welcome to their house and party. From that point on, I never go to any Filipino get together. She was so rude and uneducated, they are also some kind of "socialite" and they are trying to outdo each other by having fancy clothes and gadgets.

I am just sad that there are Filipinos like that, treating their fellow kababayan like ######.

sorry to hear about your experienced with our kababayan. i am lucky to met some friendly pilipino in my area. but i am also careful on choosing a friend especially with my fellow pinay. hindi talaga mawawala ang inggit at kayabangan ng ating kapwa pinoy lalo na pag first time maka experience ng magandang buhay.

I will be filing on January 10, 2011. Good Luck to us.

went there 2 years ago with my conditonal greencard and philippine passport kabayan...never had a problem..Carnival cruiseship...Really nice experience...Lot of filipino worker and it is so nice to talk to them and the food(gawd) are really good..Our port though was Puerto rico and it was a 7 days cruise...

we will have another cruise this coming december too but it will be celebrity cruiseship,whats your?...

Anyway have fun and enjoy the island

It will be ruby princess at fort lauderdale...i wish their will be filipino workers on that ship too. thanks for the info.

We are going this Nov to western caribbean. We were told to ensure the ticket is in my wife's maiden name since this matches her passport. Just carry your CC and marriage cert. and will be easy through customs.

We will be going this Nov too at eastern caribbean. I already amended my passport into my married name, so i have no problem with my tickets. hope to see you at the fort in florida then.. since we have a different destination. Thanks for the reply.

I'm a Kano, but I will chime in anyway.

You should have no problem going on a cruise since you have your conditional green card...as long as the cruise does not last more than six months ...or past the expiration date of your green card.

PS...don't go to Cuba...that might be trouble.

Thanks for the info. tahoma

Hey Guys, anyone who experienced caribbean cruise? i already checked on their website regarding travel documents requirements, but i need some additional information especially from my fellow filipino's. my documents on hand are philippine passport and 2 years green card. thanks.

sa akin ok naman ang mga na nakilala kong mga pinoy dito sa louisiana very friendly pa nga eh..lalo na sa mga pereho kong taga visayas. don't worry maka kilala ka rin ng mga mababait, iwas ka lang sa mga di friendly insecure lang siguro yan. i recieved some advises from friend who's been here a long time already that beware of your fellow filipino's because they are the one who will pull you down. kaya nag iingat din ako minsan.

I vote "no" on pre-nup.

First of all, your state has standards on divorce and what she is entitled to if it happens. Our state has a basic 50-50 rule on assets acquired during the marriage. But you can agree to anything if it is a dissolution not contested by either party. So look into your state laws on divorce and property, child support or even alimony because that alone may be satisfactory to you and a prenup would be moot in that case.

Second of all, don't be suspicious that this hot babe likes you. That's just the fact of the matter with women in the third world and men from the first. It's awful tough to get used to being a superstar. Be prepared for fat old arrogant women in the US to have their heads explode as you pass by with this sweet, loving, yummy dollup on your arm as you pass by.

I actually moved in with my wife and her whole family before applying for the fiance visa. I built a house with her father. Nice young man. (Younger than me.) I cannot recommend strongly enough to really get to know the family, not just her.

There is quite a bit to learn and respect about her culture. Make the effort. Yes there are scammers everywhere in the world including the philippines, but they have a VERY strong committment to family that I like.

In answer to your Chinese friend who questioned the love a young Filipina could have for a man like you: Best to be thought merely a retard than to open your mouth and sound like a catty, envious bi#@h too. Heh.

Filipinas generally like an older, more stable, and secure guy. Be a good man to her and she will love you from head to toe.

I agree with your post.
