PhilippinesKeeping the PEACE in Philippine Forum is it possible?
back when I was going through the process, the forum was pretty peaceful. I've notice in the past year, the disruptions seem to come in cycles. can the forum ever remain peaceful. from what I've observed, I'm sad to say, probably not...

She got cold feet or OMG! Is she making a deal here??? Tell her you can't support everybody in the family and that you wish you were rich so you could do that. Even if you were rich, still her family is not your obligation. Its okay to help family once in a awhile but they are NOT your obligation and she knew that. You guys should talk about this and tell her your situation. How about telling her its okay to send money back home but when she gets here she has to work so she can do that and she must remember not all her paycheck should go to the Philippines because it wouldn't be fair for you if you would be the one working and your paycheck is for yor family and hers will just go to Phil. Its better to make things clear while you guys are not yet married.


they are married. they definately need some open communication about this issue.

I read that only males need this form? Is this true. I had my fiance fill one out. (Hopefully that doesn't make her a ladyboy hahha)

Which form is the one that the bank stamps?


DS 157, machine validated by bank.

Just wonder where do you hear this stuff that only males sign this form. Better change your source. Its definitely not helping you. wink.gif


All k1/k2/k3/k4 use the DS-157 in Manila. http://manila.usemba...ov/wwwfk1en.pdf

there are Embassys in other countries in which only males complete the DS-157. that is why you always want to check the procedures at the Embassy where you are applying for a Visa.

the best thing is to try to reassure your fiance that everything is fine. besides the evidence of ongoing relationship, try to go to the interview relaxed, with a positve attitude and give honest answers to questions asked. the only thing the threats have done is cause you undue stress.

Any instructions on how to download videos from You Tube and how to post them in threads?



in YOUTUBE..there is a link on the right side of the video...copy and paste it on the forum..


Yeah, I've tried that but it's just the link that comes out, not the video itself. Just like the example below, the link comes out but not the video.

Philippinesa song for your partner
For once in my life
I have someone who needs me
Someone I've needed so long
For once unafraid
I can go where life leads me
And somehow I know I'll be strong
For once I can touch
What my heart used to dream of
Long before I knew
Someone warm like you
Could make my dream come true
For once in my life
I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before
For once I've got someone
I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore
For once I can say
This is mine, you can't take it
As long as I've got love
I know I can make it
For once in my life
I've got someone who needs me

QUOTE (Karin und Otto @ Apr 26 2009, 01:46 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
SS Card is not required for AOS (or EAD or AP) - the forms ask for the number but only if you have one.

Next step(s) is to file your AOS (I-485) and (if desired) EAD/AP (this is how you notify USCIS of your marriage). good.gif


yes.gif good.gif

also, for Ca ID or drivers license, she'll have to wait till she has an EAD or green card.

If you have been having an internet only chat relationship, and your total in person contact with your girl is not very long, please think it over.

Take time to understand that the people in the phils want to come to the usa very badly. Dont just be a tourist when you are in the P.I. Get out and walk and talk and better yet go rent a cheap room with no aircon even for a couple of days. UNDERSTAND that a great many girls will do or say anything to come to the usa.

I live in Cebu. I am an American Citizen. I am probably going to get married in Cebu to my fiance. I will not even consider bringing her to the usa for another 3 years or so... if ever.

Do the research.. she will say and make you feel this couldnt possibly apply to you and her.

take your time.. there is no rush.. Test her attitude. Make her wait. You have time. Spare yourself
the expense and pain of a bad experience. BE EXTREMELY CAUTIOUS AND SLOW TO TRUST.


gee, thanks for the warning... whistling.gif

My wife is from Cebu. She's been here for 2 years without an incident. Although, the other night I caughtt her trying to file away at the shackles around her ankles. I just laughed it off and hog tied her for the remainder of the night. I think she learned her lesson.

I think american- american marriages are around 50-50. I remember one area of the country had a 70% divorce rate..



I thought your 50/50 was in reference to Filipinas whose main reason for K or marriage visa was as a way to get here.
as far as divorce of FilAM Couples, I'd guess it's below national average.

I dont know what the real stats are. maybe its 50/50 i really dont know.. That would really be interesting to know.

You are really right about getting to know each other, and I have come to believe that means doing whatever you have to do to spend time with your fiance in person. A one month visit or two of them... whatever is not the way to go.

I am sorry this happened to you, but in all fairness to the Filipinas. Majority of them come here for the right reasons!! I think you would agree to that!! There are scammers from every country in the world that want to come here.. I feel like I am the luckiest Man on Earth that I found a Beautiful,Sincere,Trustworthy and Honest woman who happens to be a Filipina. My life has forever changed for the better since Ruchie and Mathew came into my life.

I wish you the best and hope this one works out for you. Take your time and really get to know each other.

Hello vj members,

Just wanna ask your opinion on when is the best time for me to send my I-751 when my green card will expire in
September of this year?

Also i read about these;;

Choice of agent to be emailed.

1- When should i do this?Where to email this?We are still waiting for our I-130 NOA 2?

2- Who should be the best choice of agent, the petitioner or the legal guardian of the benefeciaries (minor kids)?

3-Who signs the DS 230 for my 2 minor kids?My USC husband is the petitioner?My mom is the legal guardian?

thank you very much for your reply.


Take the expire date and subtract 90 days...

You have a greencard, what are you doing with an I-130?


looks like petitioning her two children.
