Yes, its normal that you didn't your NOA2 yet. I think we have the same time line. We filed last October 10, 2008 too.
Just keep praying and have faith... I hope that we will have smooth and speedy journey.

US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionVISA DENIED??
QUOTE (smudgy and leggy @ Dec 14 2009, 01:11 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
hi all,
today is very sad day. i went for my interview at the embassy and they give me back my passport and a letter saying 'unable to issue a visa to you because you have been found ineligible to receive a visa under the ff section:

section 221 (g) which prohibits the issuance of a visa to anyone whose application does not comply with the provisions of the Immigration and Nationality Act issued pursuant thereto. There following remarks apply in your case:*

221(g) for police report and AOS. Requiring proof from IRS of 2008 taxes. (Quarterly tax filings)


Please help me. Does this mean i am no longer able to get visa issued anymore?
However, The lady that interviewed me asked me to get police clearance of my fiance and also his quarterly tax filings.

Is it already denied?? or i can still get approved??

please help..
Thanks a lot
wacko.gif crying.gif


Hi! I knew what's your feeling right now because I've been in your situation. It took time for me to calmed down and I was crying before. I thought that I was denied. I was in AP/ AR for 3 months but thanks God I am here now with my husband.

It was not a denial. You need to get the requirements of what they asked for you and you'll be alright. Sometimes, it takes time for them to review your case but just hang in there.

PhilippinesDo I need to keep the atm receipt?
Hello Everybody,
Before, my fiance was sent me a money through western union but he decided to open an account for me because western union is so expensive than to the ATM. I kept the receipt when I claimed the money in the western union but I didn't keep the atm receipt when I withdraw some money to the ATM. Do I need to keep the atm receipt or just throw it away?
God bless and more power.... star_smile.gif star_smile.gif star_smile.gif

PhilippinesIntroducing New Members
QUOTE (LuvinLyn @ Nov 3 2008, 09:38 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Hello to all in this forum!

I have just found this wonderful resource. All I can say is WOW! There are so many wonderful stories here. I think it will take me several weeks to read and gather all the great information and helpful hints here!

Let me introduce myself. I am 54 years old, an American living in New Hampshire. My last relationship (with an American girl) ended in disaster 4 years ago. She traded me in on a richer, younger guy.

About 8 months ago, a Filipina I've known for a while, said that she wanted to 'fix me up' with a girl she knew in Cebu. This girl (her name is Jocelyn), was her best friend as girls growing up. They remain friends even after she was married and moved to the states. Jocelyn had told her she was interested in settling down (she is 24) and her friend here in the states felt that we would make a good match. She introduced us and we began chatting online.

Jocelyn is a wonderful girl and she stole my heart very quickly and I am so glad she did. We have talked and talked almost every day since that time. Last month I went to Cebu and spent 2 weeks with her and met all her family.

I am working on learning some Bisayan and her English is not the greatest, but we communicate very well, and she is the apple of my eye.

She very much wants to come to the states and be my wife. I will be submitting the I-129 to the Vermont office early this week. I will also be going back to Cebu for the first 2 weeks of December to see her again. I can't really afford it, but I can't stay away either.

Anyway...that's the beginnings of my (our) story. I'd be happy to share more if anyone is interested. I have only read a small portion of the wonderful stories on here and I'm really happy to have found the resource that can help me with the process of bringing Jocelyn here so we can start our life together. I am not opposed to moving back to the Phils if that turns out to be a good thing to do for us. But, I believe for the beginnings, it would be best to start here in the states.

Whew...

Please excuse my wordiness.

Pete

hi ladyinpink,

You should think about it because your situation is so tough. You look at the bright side of it and pray for it.

I think that you should follow your heart. I know that your mom is happy about you. Yet, she got a heart attack because you are leaving, it doesn't mean that she is not allowing you to be with your honey. She wants you to be happy.

PhilippinesQuestion about SSN ID philippines
QUOTE (Completely @ Nov 24 2008, 02:08 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Question from my friend.


Do you think the SSS in Manila can issue SSS ID to my friend, even if her membership is no longer active in SSS? Her last contibution is 11 years ago...

I am trying to bring her overseas but she is having difficulties of getting a passport. Getting SSS ID will help acquire passport.

Any advise will be highly appreciated.

Thanks!


Yes, they can give an ID even she didn't contribute for how many years as long she has a SS number. She can use her SS number for a lifetime. She needs to present an E1 to the SSS so that you she can fill-up the form for an ID.
