SeiChiiFemalePhilippines2008-09-25 08:42:00
Philippinesdomicile, jobless need an advice
ok guys here is my story....

I went back to the Philippines year 2005. I got married July of 2005 since then I didnt come back to US. I stayed with my husband for 2 years. Sept 2007 i came back to US and i decided to file a petition in california instead of doing DCF. then after 4 months i decided to come back in the philippines. (jan 22th 2008 until now.) but, before I went back to the Philippines. I called USCIS and asked them if its ok for me to stay in the philippines while my petition for my husband is still in process. NVC Officer told me its ok, besides the officer sayz ur USCIS u can go back to US anytime u want, as long u responded to the letter either USCIS or NVC if they need some documents from you or like paying immigrant visa and affidavit of support.so I ask my mom and my sister just in case i have a letter coming from USCIS and NVC inform me.

Since my petition is approved, i asked my sister if she could help us to be my joint sponsor since i dont have a job. so i was suprised they approved my petition.

please check my time line above for more details..


NOW is the time for my hubby's interview and im nervous.

they might ask for the prooft of my domicile, since I came back to US year 2007. I opened an account. so i have bank account which is still active but not much money hahahha rofl.gif like $100 in it. just to make it active. and yah i remember the bank sent me a security pin to use for my ATM and i have it with me.
i have a bank statement sent to my address too.

secondly, I asked my mom if she can transfer her name to my name in our home phone number.

and thirdly, I have a prepaid cellphone use by my little sister up to now and i printed out the cellphone call history and it is showing my name on the bill.

some of the bill i printed out from online banking and online payment for the prepaid cellphone bill, and the rest like the bank statement i asked my sister if she could print it out for me. so by tom she will email it.

Im so pressure thinking about if the co's if he/she ask my hubby for me not working for 3 years. huhuhhhu
since my sister is my co sponsor her income is above the poverty line i think thats why we got approved. she is working in the casino and making 5 grand monthly.

vj's members please my husband interview will be on the 29th this coming monday. please includes us in your prayers. helpsmilie.gif


and u guys are welcome to give me some advice in my situation right now.

thank you so much in advance

PhilippinesProblem in St Lukes
QUOTE (ray77755 @ Sep 26 2008, 12:03 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
My fiance went this past Monday and they said they could not do physical because there was a spot of blood. She went back Tuesday and they do the physical but they want medical record because she have a surgery last year. So she have to go home to La Union to obtain that. So Wednesday she go to hospital and ask for medical record. They told her to come back Thursday afternoon. She get the medical record and ride bus all night to be back at St Lukes Friday morning. Well she is told the doctor that want the medical record is not in but will be there at 1:30. This is really nerve racking as our interview is scheduled for next Thursday. Wish us luck. smile.gif

hmmm? did u try to check ur status at www.delbros.com? u know the tracking number? check mo nga sis to be sure, baka may mga modos naman dito, ano ba to. try mo to be sure.


i checked it on the website already and its good to go for delivery.,


really? what does the pop up screen say? im really so curious about your case guys, wow naman. kasi i try to check the cell pon they use and not of the two number have same number as that. wow congrats parin. sorry ha, na amazed lang talaga ako kasi we called USEM yesterday then Lorraine said that my DOCS still at NSO, and i look at your SIGNATURE and u pay DV just one day after i paid. and my interview was Sept 18. i really dont know what happen to this NSO people or delbros people, they seem work not fair to others.


thanks for the concern sis. but thats the number showed up on my cellphone. i checked it online and its ready for delivery. NSO holds up the documents verification it takes a while for them to verify the document i dont know why? since delbros is only charge for the documents delivery. it depends to nso when they going to release it.

PhilippinesSept 17th Interview experience
QUOTE (RickieAndEva @ Sep 19 2008, 09:12 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Here is an account of my interview experience last Sept. 17th:

Appointment was at 8:30am but went there an hour early with my Sister.
Since the lane for immigrant visa applicants was empty, the Guard told me to go straight to and enter Gate
2. My Sister and i went separate ways. I headed to gate number 2 while she to the waiting area only to find out
later that she was very uncomfortable because it was hot and there was not enough seats for everyone there.
Another check point awaits you upon entering Gate 2. Then you will see colored arrows with the different visa
classifications telling you where to proceed.
All the guards at the Embassy were very helpful and were watching over every applicant. From time to time,
they would check in on the applicants for follow-up. So I handed over my appointment letter to the lady at the
booth which is to the right upon entrance to the interview hall. She returned to me the appointment letter and
was given a "removing conditions" instruction sheet along with the number stub and was told to wait to be called
in my seat.
Finger scanning
I didnt have a watch so i wasnt really aware of how long the wait was until i was called for finger scanning. I
noticed that not everyone there was properly attired. No offense meant to anyone, but at least we have to look
dignified. I shared this observation with my Sister after the interview and she told me that it could be for
psychological reasons that the Embassy isn't really imposing a dress code to applicants. One will feel better and
relaxed if he's wearing something he's very comfortable in. My husband and I totally disagreed on that. (let's set
that aside for now)
I took a while at the finger scanning. The computer couldnt read my prints. hahahahahaha - i can laugh at this
now, recalling that time. but back then, all it did to me was add a little more worry to a very very very worried me.
The lady assisting us in the scanning had to press down my fingers on the scanner and was told by the other lady
facilitating the scan to rub my fingers on my neck. the effort was of no avail. The last recourse, rub the fingers
with some kind of jelly. Finally, they got my prints. I went back to the waiting area to find a seat. Since the rows
fronting the pre-screeners were almost vacant i decided to sit close to their windows. (major reason of doing so is
for the pre-screener to have a head-to-toe view of me as i approach them - in other words for some good
impression. let me add that, the reason why my Husband and I didn't agree with what my Sister said about what
to wear to the interview is that, in times like having a one-shot engagement like the interview, first impression
really matters - dress to impress) So to make it more clear, i wore something nice, professional-looking and
"i-respect-you-/you-respect-me" outfit.
Pre-screening
The things i anticipated and imagined happened. My number flashed on the screen with the window
number which, believe it or not, was right up front of me. I rose from my seat then walked towards the
Pre-screener. He looked at me up and down. I could tell he liked what he was looking at heheheheheheheh.....He
was very warm - unlike the other guy next to him who was intimidating. We greeted each other. Then he told me
about his friends from my hometown whom i happen to know by acquaintance. That brief conversation we had
outside Consulate concerns eased me. But i was still shaking (since i entered the Embassy ground). I even had
to repeat to him the instruction he gave me on my DS-230 just to confirm if i heard him right. At that time my
muscles were too tensed that it was hard to affix my signature on the form. Before signing the form, he corrected
a field in my DS-230. He told me to write "same as in number 10" on the number 11 box. The best part was when i
was adding the text was him telling me " because that is where your green card will be delivered". In my head i
was saying, "Oh my God! is he serious? is this a sign that i will be approved?" Hearing that from him gave me the
confidence that i needed in facing the CO. I held on to what he said. I kept telling myself that it is going to be okay.
He asked me questions like:
- What is your name?
- What is your husband's name?
- How old are you? your Husband?
- What is his ex-wife's name?
- Do they have children?
- Date of marriage
- When and where did you meet your husband?
- How many times did he come to visit?
- When was his last visit?
He asked for:
- pictures - he commented, "Bagay pa la kayo".....My response was "thank you po"
- other proof of on-going relationship: personal correspondences, financial support
I offered all the rest of my proofs, he told me to just hold them for now and show them to the CO in case they
want more. And so i did. I returned to the same seat where i was earlier.
A little more wait
The Consular Officer
It wasnt long enough when i saw my number and the room assignment flashed on the screen again. As i
have observed from the other applicants when they are up next for the interview with the CO, they had to wait
and be seated on one of the chairs outside the CO's room. And so i did.
The CO who handled my final interview was a gentleman in his mid-50's. He was approachable but thorough
with the documents. He asked similar questions asked of me earlier.
The new ones were:
- What do you like about your husband?
- What do you do?
- Did he have prior marriages? How many?
- Do they have children? What is her name? How old is she?
As he went back and forth encoding and writing from the computer to the sheets of paper before him, the
sight of that "dreaded blue paper" was upsetting. With so much worry, i wondered if "could this be the
blue paper one will get if you have been denied?" With that in mind, i was already trying to put together some
lines i will be saying to the Consul if it were really what i thought it would be. To make the situation worse for me,
i saw him shaking his head as he was looking at the computer monitor. I thought, "what flaw or loopholes could
there still be?" I was becoming so paranoid as i desperately tried to read his actuation.
............And there was LIGHT!....after a few seconds of silence, he finally said the words i so desperately wanted
to hear ---- after the stamping a piece of paper, which happened to be my appointment letter, as i later
discovered, he said THE most beautiful words to me......"OKAY, MA'AM, YOUR VISA IS APPROVED. GOOD LUCK
TO YOU."..... I almost cried in front of him. I thanked him before leaving.
Last stop
After the interview with Consul, you have to again be seated and wait to be called, this time by your name. I
was teary-eyed when i sat myself down. I became a little self-conscious that i looked around and see if others
had the same reaction as me. There was none. It was a little weird for me having been seeing others who got
approved who weren't showing a little emotion.
Every document that was asked from you during the interview shall be returned to you. My Husband and I
have expected to be given the white slip along with the pink one when we are approved because the last time we
called the NSO, we somehow caught on the idea that the verification wont be done until friday of this week. When
my documents were handed to me, i meticulously looked for the white slip. I didnt really pay much attention to
the pink slip. It was like the white one mattered more. hahahahaha....Silly me!......Then i double checked my
documents before putting them back to my bag. Walked up to the Delbros booth. A form has to be filled out
before paying the fee. Upon payment, your personal info will be encoded on the computer. Make sure you also
look at the monitor to counter-check what the Delbros personnel is encoding.
I walked out of the Embassy holding my emotions. I was so happy, that i needed to express it. I hugged my
Sister so tightly when we we're reunited. We headed back to the hotel. I texted my husband to call me when we
got to our room. And so he did.


congratz
