the good knight

hey vj'ers,

I need help with a nagging question I have, we have alot of evidence but I was wondering on the joint bank accounts we have 2 years worth am I supposed to send in all 24 monthly statements with the bank account numbers showing or should I black them out, or am I being to paranoid, also do I send in all two years worth of all the utility bills that will be alot of paperwork I don't want to overwhelm them just make it clear were still happy and together.

Sorry but one final thing we just bought a pre-owned vehicle for my wife today and now we have alot more evidence to show them, shared title, shared auto insurance, right before our paperwork goes in, it just worked out that way, I don't want to look suspicious like were loading up on evidence right at the end...

Thank you in advance for your help.

Signed, I hate all this paperwork..........

I'm more worried that Junior's eaten Paul's brain and he now thinks being in a relationship with a spoiled child is an okay thing for a grown man...

Hi Bob 4 Anna,

I hope that the reason why Paul is not visiting his VJ account is,,,maybe he realized that being with a spoiled brat whatever kind of creature with him is not the best thing he did in his life.maybe he did the best descision for him.(crossing my fingers) that he might find a better one,who will treat him as a husband but not a slave of his own family and home.

But then again maybe she is not the B word you think she is. What if she is like a kid? she wants complete attention and that is why she is becoming so revel?? Just throwing some ideas or trying to see the glass half full, not half empty.

if she is like a kid,why the hell she entered in a relationship knowing that someday she'll be leaving her family and meet new families out here?know what?...let's open our eyes that some of the Filipinas who got here thinks that they are in the highest class of life.they think that they step on a gold road and sleep in a bed of luxury!its better that the glass is empty if there's no damage at all rather than half full but there's a leak on it that spills out that remaining content.

Nothing like a cute spoiled girl. You have one.

Give her more love and don't complaint to her. If she tells you that you are not giving her enough love, give her more. Go to the extreme of asking her how she wants to be loved. Maybe the love you are giving her is not her understanding of love. Overdose her with your love.

Don't questions her. Slowly try to see what interest her most. Do it slowly then join what interest her the most. You will see a transformation from night to day. It might take some times.

BUT DON'T FORGET: She is in a stay of SHOCK.

She wouldn't come to USA if she did not feel something for you.

Hi DURIANTASTE:

Don't forget,too that BEING A "B"...ch is not good if you are in shock.and by the way,that is not the way you act if you are in shock.She knew already that she will leave her fanily in P.I to be with her love.Maybe,she is a REAL DAMN FILIPINA..WITH A REAL BAAAAAADDD ATTITUDE!,...

Hello to you,Need a filipina advice,

i read the same story from one of the members here before just the time i got here.the woman whom the guy brought here is like the same way your fiance"s attitude.He asked a lot of advice here in the visa journey and he ended up sending the girl in the philippines because he can't take it no more.what i can tell you is,it's not yet too late to decide the right deciscion.don't let her stub you and your family in your backs,since you are not yet married.how much more if you two are legally married and she thinks she have ALL the rights now to contoll you from your family against them!i am a filipina,too.and i dont like the way she acts.i love my family in P.I the same way i love his family here whom i considered my second family.send that girl back to where she belong.maybe she got her nose up because she thought that being here in U.S is a lottery..there are lots of good girls out there.i can give you one..lol..we are here to give u advice:please dont ruin your life in that kind of girl you got.there is still someone out there deserving.

Hi Mrs. Salome,

Me and my husband was happy to hear from you that anytime from now on,you will be on the plane.Welcome to America.i know that this is just the beginning of your journey because once you get here in States you still have much paperworks to do.Please don,t hesitate to ask for our help.We are very willing to help you in some ways.Congratulations to both of you.you will be with your husband,FINALLY! :-)...Bon Voyage,girl..

Hi Mrs. Salome,

a little advice so that you won't be wondering where is your visa now..why don't you go into your nearby 2go office and show them your receipt from 2go-embassy branch.They wil just type those confirmation numbers and they can relay on you where is visa at.i did that when im waiting for my visa.i was in the province so i have to go to 2go office nearby us and i showed them my receipt and they told me that it was on the way now on their office.the next day they called me to pick it up..

goodluck girl.don't you worry so much,it will be in your hands pretty soon!

your friend,

Lorie your

Hi Mrs. Salome,

Just wondering why they asked you for your CENOMAR if you are already married with your husband that trying to get you here? If you didn't able to comply on your CENOMAR,go to NSO and have to fill up the CENOMAR application.Just ask the guards on the door that you want a CENOMAR form.That form is about you,just put your informations when you were single.Once you submit that,the result that they gonna pull out from their records will be married indicated on the document that they will give you.Perhaps,the Embassy just want to see if you have the real marriage certificate same to what that you gave on them.Maybe the reason why you don't have yet your visa is,they are still waiting for you to submit the requested paperwork.You supposed to comply as soon as possible.if you are really approved that time,they supposed to give you a paperwork telling that you still need to go back inside the embassy and submit it to the last window besides the windows where you got your biometrics in the first place.just right across the little canteen,,if you noticed where you buy waters and other stuffs.gusto lng nla cgrong mcgrado n legal ang kasal nyo kya gusto ng embassy n kmuha k ng CENOMAR,dun ksi mkkta f nsa NSO ang records ng ksal nyo.Kung kmha k ng CENOMAR,fill-up-an m ang mga info nung ikaw ay dalaga p.at kung isearch nla yun dun s manoifesto s records ng census,eh lalabas n ikw ay married n.ganyan ang gnwa q kc dun s unang aswa q,nag aswa sya ng pngalawa at nagpksal.Kinuhanan q sya ng CENOMAR at boooommmm...ngpkita dun s name nya n dlawa ang pnkslan nya kya naging successful ang annullment case q against s knya.Sna eh mkakuha k kgad ng CENOMAR m pra s ganun eh maisubmit m kgad un s embassy.bka kc blewalain ng embassy ang mga pghhrap m kc may reason clang magsbi n ndi k nagcomply kgad s hnhanap nlang doc sau.goodluck and please just ask me anything,it might help you.

Hi Mrs.Salome,

i just wanna add some ideas about CEMAR and CENOMAR...CEMAR ,your certificate of marriage(marriage contract) and the CENOMAR is for those who applied single status only(certificate of no marriage).about the VISA,i got it 2weeks after my interview.Your medical exam result from St.Lukes will be forwarded to US embassy before your interview.That's why there's no reason to review your documents in the embassy if the interviewer told you that you was been approved unless you will comply on the document that they want you to submit(missing doc.like your CEMAR).

i will ask you this one:did you have a copy of your marriage contract from NSO that you submitted in the embassy together with your other docs?..if you have all those,there's no reason why you dont have your visa packet.me,when i was interviewed,the interviewer told me that i was approved but i have to present my NBI with a.k.a on it because i had an annullment there.so i didn't took a long time to comply.i have to submit it right away to have my visa packet delivered soon..

I hope that these ideas can help you.wishing you goodluck

Lorie and Doug

This thread is like a very good book, it makes you laugh, cry and question all the characters, I just hope when Gretchen gets to America she can find a batch of Filipina's who can help her get quote unquote "americanized" and she can become a strong and independant filipina, Lord knows my wife sure did...lol,,,but I sure do love her 7 years since we met and still going strong...

good luck gretchen and darren........

Good Luck

Wishing you all the best, the wife and I have been following your story, enjoy your time in P.I. I hope to get back to the philippines myself soon........

CONGRATS on your accomplishment I'm sorry you had to wait so long, but glad your finally finished are there anymore June filers out there, this board was a great help to us...

Here's a question for the board please, having casual conversations with family and friends over the holidays I mentioned maybe my wife (who is filipina)and I may retire in the Philippines, (I'm way to young to retire right now) and I was surprised to hear it's not that easy, some say I would have to come back to the United States every 6 months to keep my U.S. Citizenship, some said no I wouldn't, some said I could get dual citizenship, there we're 10 filipina's at the party and I got ten different answers. Does anybody know the true LEGAL answer on how I could keep my U.S. citizenship and legally live in the Philippines, without major expenses like flying somewhere out of country every 6 months that could get expensive. Hope I explained myself well.

Thanks for your help...

my heart goes out to all who havent gotten their green card yet, it took me years to get my wife here, then all the adjustment of status paperwork, it shouldn't be so stressful trying to do the right thing.

god bless and good luck on your gc's don't give up hope

gusto ko sana dec 17 yung interview and nov 17-18 yung medical para sigurado.. gusto ko maaga! hehe.. what do you think???

wait wait i take it back.. are they gonna keep your passport after the medical???

December 6-7-8 for the medical? you can email me at steph.afzelius@gmail.com wala kasi ako sa PI now eh kaya I cant text!

hi guys,just have a little help about ur passport after ur medical...saint lukes dont give back ur passport,they will clip that in ur medical files and take it to the embassy.pls.,dont bring companies cuz tha medical clinic wont allow them to go inside,only u who are authorize to have med.exam...dont bring foods,either.f u r with ur sweathearts,they will allow u to be with him/her.its not hard to get an exam,it was well-detailed.they will tell u where to go next.TAKE NOTE:if u have ur print out for ur interview date,u can go right away for medical,dont need to have a schedule nor dont need to call for an apointment at saint lukes.u just present ur print out interview date 2 weeks before ur interview...make sure u have xerox copy on ur interview date print out.show that to the guard...goodluck and godbless

I am curious about phone records for the interview. Yes, I do call her all the time, but she never calls me. Way to expensive. My phone bill will show that I have repeatedly called a number in the Philippines but how do we prove that is her cell phone. She can't take her phone to the interview. Very curious about this.

Sorry to HJ the thread.

John

...John,i just read ur journey.dont worry on the tel.records...send ur tel.records to her before her interview.request ur long distance records to your telephone company.that was we did,too.pictures,receipts,too.that all help her to be approve.goodluck and godbless.

Wow, how heartbreaking! My wife and I met 15 months ago in China. Ten (yes,10!!) trips to China and 150,000 flown miles later, We found ourselves at the embassy in Guangxuo for her interview. As you can imagine, we had hundreds of photos, receipts, etc. as evidence that our relationship was legitimate. We even had a wedding ceremony this past february in her hometown. I even lived with her last summer in Shenzhen.

The interviewer was incredibly RUDE and gave her less than 3 minutes of his time. He barely looked at a little of the mountain of evidence and denied her with a "blue" form. He told her that she needed phone records and that was all we were missing.

This sounds like total BS to me. Had he spent three minutes with both of us ( I was waiting downstairs! ) he would have easily seen that ours was a legitimate union. After talking to many people ( including her friends, all of whom were passed with barely a thought! ), we were told that maybe our age difference (she is 29, I am 48) was a factor in the denial. My greatest worry is that this man was not being truthful and has no intention of approving us. As you can see by the photo, neither one of us appears our age. Anybody have any thoughts/comments/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

she is not denied then if they told her to submit the blue form.ask her if what was indicated in the blue form they gave her.because taht form is still usefull ones u will return back to the embassy.if the missing evedence is ur phone bills,you have to provide it then.my evidences that i brought with me was tel.bills,pictures with him and my family.the embassy might need to see that u having much connections.if u dont have tel.bills,u can print out all ur chat records if u are chatting each other...that way she will be approved.please tell her to keep the blue form.she will need taht once you complied

hello everyone,

this may seem like a silly question, but we are one of the lucky couples who got my wife a green card (2 year) to get her stateside legal i have been collecting, saving and documenting evidence for over 3 years, with her green card here, now what should I be collecting USCIS always wants something more i'm just curious on what that may be. I know this paperwork will never end.

GOODLUCK to all of you and thanks for any thoughts...

thank you cleocatra for all your hard work i know that must have taken some time

TO ALL VISA JOURNEY FILERS THAT ARE SELF-EMPLOYED Me and my husband got a hard time on my EAD and got an RFE from the mail.The RFE is teling us to submit a copy of my husband's IRS and have the FORM-I-864,page 8 which includes:Schedule E-pages 1&2,K1,Form5695,Schedules L and M....Well,we are already done having all these troubles,i finally got my EAD and AOS in the mail.Wishing u all the good luck for those whi are still in the process,Godbless.

My wife and I just filed today for her social security card (k-1) just seventeen days before her I-94 number is to expire I always thought you had to wait until the approval of the I-765 EAD to get an SSN, until I read this board,I was really worried I read somewhere that with only two weeks left on your I-94 that they would not issue her a SSN. But S.S. told us we should get it in two weeks, DOES THIS SEEM TO GOOD TO BE TRUE? thanks... any good stories out there about SSN's......

Hello june filers my wife and I have been reading this forum for awhile and we have been wondering how do you get your timeline to show up on all your posts without typing it in manually everytime some of the filers have quite colorful timelines,we are trying to share in the journey, BTW we got our Biometrics appointment letter today, quite exiting!
