A and T

Just buy some baby wipes, problem solved! But yeah a bidet is nice, cleaner and saves on toilette paper cost

Oh my mistake i thought his spouse was from the philippines.

I hate to be a downer, but with the adam walsh issue plus 3 dui i think its going to be an extremely hard case. You might be better off just moving to the philippines lol

"A bit of background:

I was convicted of Lewd and Lascivious assault on a minor under the age of 16 in 1996 (Adjudication withheld). I went through a program called KIDS that involved counseling and periodical lie detectors tests. I graduated that program and was released from the probation that I was on because those terms were met. I am now on a life time registration though because I was on probation during the time the laws went through that required SOR's to register."

You are going to have a very difficult time with this, I highly suggest hiring a lawyer very skilled with the Adam Walsh Act

It depends on what doctor or hospital you visit. For small issues i visit the local hospitals/doctors or clinics in the mall. For anything more serious i suggest saint lukes or Makati Medical. Best way to think of it, is you get what you pay for. Also a lot of cheaper hospitals have old equipment. I had an ultrasound done at a cheaper hospital and the equipment did not pick up anything , due to poor quality/old. But at Saint lukes they had a new machine and it was crystal clear.

"Obamacare" didn't cut your hours, your employer did. You can always marry and use a co sponsor.

Get a new passport under your married name, its not that hard and takes a few weeks for the new one to come in. You will get to keep the old one (with holes punched in it) I suggest bringing both

I met a bargirl here and learned a lot about her and the lifestyle. Its not something they want to do, but of course they are poor and options are limited. They hope to meet a nice guy and marry like everyone else. Some have a lot of family pressure to earn money and support the family but can't at a regular job and sort of end up in the lifestyle.

Out on the streets you see women with kids and they are starving and have nothing. In a way i respect the bar girl at least she is support her kids /family and not just leaving them to starve.

Its easy mostly from Manila to Batangas and the buses are fairly nice (some even with wifi now) Just have to figure out what bus station to get to. The locals should know

See if you can pay for expedited processing of the updated passport. If its an option

Not sure how you do it in the USA but its a fairly straight forward process here in the philippines

Petitioner only does if they have an AWA hit i think

Move to the philippines! reverse immigration

I'm not that far from Ermita/Malate. Sunday night Roxas was already flooded and the areas around Rizal Park are flooded. Its worse now than it was then, Makati is flooded as well

Its closed i was trapped last night near Roxas the roads are flooding waist deep in some areas. And its still raining! Makati also flooded

So i live with my wife and son in the philippines, we recently filed the CBRA and just received his passport today. Nothing was mention or told to us about a Social Security Number. Do we need to do anything extra or is it something they are going to mail us later? We have his USA passport now, and a CBRA certificate

I thought Americans could stay 6 months on a tourist visa now?

"

Foreigners intending to stay longer in the country may now avail of a six-month, long-stay tourist visa that will be launched next week by the Bureau of Immigration (BI).

BI Commissioner Ricardo A. David, Jr. also announced the introduction of a new visa sticker that will replace the wet stamp used by the Bureau in implementing extensions of stay in the passports of foreign tourists.

David said the Long Stay Visitor Visa Extension (LSVVE) project was launched to spur tourist arrivals in the country by giving foreigners the privilege to prolong their stay here without the need to frequent the BI office."

"We got denied because that was not sufficient"

They say this to everyone no matter what you submit. Its just the default answer . They have no standard of what is sufficient? They don't have any list or guidelines to follow to explain what is good enough. Thats why everyone is stuck fighting this. It will probably take a lawsuit to fix

If she has a Cert and USA passport she is clear to leave. Do you plan to return to the phil? If so you might want to get her a philippines passport as well, its not very expensive just for good measure.

It seems to be that filipina respect a good man, for the man he is.

Congrats!

I have a lawyer who told me criminal record does not matter if u go there and marry ... That's is from a immigration lawyer mouth

Your lawyer would be absolutely wrong and has no idea what he is talking about. Being married doesn't change anything regarding the burden of proof ( which is completely arbitrary)

My wife recently had to go to this just to update her philippine passport to her married name because she is married to me. We had no trouble just brought nso marriage cert, previous ID's , paid the fee had no problem. But that was here in manila

What country did you move to? and did they give you any problems?

I came from the states to the philippines and got a job with a USA company. It was fairly easy, but as stated above most jobs here call Center or IT related. If its outside of those i dont know if he could find anything
