K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reportswe need help for phone bills print outs or our evidence

Then, just say that in an explanation.

I used 3Utelecom which required me to dial an 800 number each time I called. I just said that in an explanation. It was fine.

thank you so much for the advice.

hello!

it doesn't matter i had those phone bills but they never asked me.. the pre-screener just asked my NBI clearance,NSO BC,CENOMAR,pictures together,my fiance(now husband) affidavit of support, tax return of 2008,wages and salaries.
Good LUCK!

thanks to you......God bless

I used AT+T International. They gave good records. If you have a bit of time before her interview change carriers.

I'l try that one...thank you so much

You could call customer service and ask for a stack of monthly 'call detail records'.

But I've no idea if they'll actually provide them. Good Luck !

thank you so much ...i'l try your suggestion too.... :innocent:

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsHow will i know if i got approved?

hi to all!

i just went to my interview today and i can say it all went fine. I just want to make sure if i passed the interview or not? Since the consulate didn't tell me anything other than "Thank you for coming" . The interview was fast and just lasted like 7 to 10mins. There is no additional requirement he ask of me and rather he joked around and said "So you are the one responsible for this heavy stuff" (because i bring a lot of stuff during the interview) and he just told me to wait for my visa.

I paid the visa courier fee and i got a pink slip. The last counter who i went through said to wait for my visa and have my CFO seminar once i get my visa. Does it mean I got an approval? or what? I want to make sure..

Those who undergone interview and got a visa approval i think you can help me. Thanks guys.. :help:



yes it is..... :dance: :dance: :dance: congratulations to both of ,finally you will be together soon...God bless and gudluck.... :star:

CONGRATS to all those who got their NOA2's this week.

We are waiting ever so impatiently lol. The timeline deadline has since passed & we have heard nothing at all -- so now I try not to refresh the USCIS site a zillion times a day hoping for a little touch. I know others may think I am being paranoid or neurotic but well this is part of who I am -- I stress, I worry & I detest not being in control of any of it.

I am going to curl up with a movie for a few hours before sleep. :mellow:



same here,you are not alone on this,we ride on this boat ,we will keep praying ang hoping it will be soon and it will be.....

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresPRISM SEMINAR
:star: I finish my CFO seminar today ,together with my friend here on vj....
Just want to share info to our fellow vjers

PRISM is located along the highway ,it's easy to find
just locate the BDO right in front of La salle campus.

be sure to bring documents they need like
valid id
birth certificate
passport
divorce paper
all photocopy,you may check on thier website for other requirements.

i like it because they have system flow that makes the whole process easy .

when you enter the guard will ask your photocopy docs
then you will proceed to 3rd floor ,there is this window labelled step 1

they will ask for your docs,then give you a form to fill out
after they will call you for a picture taking ,then you will proceed to the seminar room
in our case we have 2 speaker,1 on the entire orientation and 2nd on the specific topics for fiancess and spouses

during the orientation ,do not be confuse because it's all mix up ,fiancee,spouse,OFW,ex OFW etc
then after you will be split out according to your category.
PRISM people are accomodating so no worries,just ask any questions you want.

after that we have an individual interview and charannnnnn we got our cfo attendance certificate
they will give you all the info you need until you got your cfo sticker...

we started around 10am and finished before 1pm...informative and we finished early....Keep it up PRISM people...

for those who are about to attend the seminar,photocopy all the docs so you won't need to go out and have them photocopied

goodluck and God bless to all..... :thumbs:

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresHow much is your phone bill?

Haha what a question !

I use two services, one on my cell phone and one at home. The one on my cell phone charges by the minute, and in the past has cost as much as $50 in one month.

At home I primarily use Vonage to call India and spend only about $32 per month on that. I heard of a new promo offer from Vonage, so I will try to call and get a lower price. :-)

We usually talk twice a day - once when she wakes up and I am going to bed, and again when I wake up and she is going to bed.

We very rarely talk on email or use text chatting, it is usually on the phone.



wow....how we wish we know that ,been spending a lot on our phone bill my fiancee use his regular phone and cellhone lines,which cost really a lot,we talk 2x a day too with the minimum of 1 hour in each call,we txt ,sometimes skype and tons of emails...just a couple who love to talk anything i guess...but we hope this will be over soon as we will be together and so to save for our ponebill too he he he....

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresAbout Vaccinations

Hello folks...

On 24th of March 2010 will be my medical examination... As what I have read from the people's experiences here, they said that the medical fee is 5,415pesos.. My question is, is 5,415 pesos includes the shots? If it is not included, how much is the per shot? Need your answer guys...

Thanks in advance.. :)



Hello there,i'l be there too on wednesday for medical together with the friend i meet here at vj....
im probably sure the medical fee is 213 so its about 10k here depending on the exchange rate of that day....
131 ,that 5k is something is a vissa fee we need pay in the bank if we have our interview date sched already.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresK3 CR1
If you are scheduled for the K3 interview first, and your CR1 file is at the embassy, you might be able to request the interview be for the CR1 instead of K3. smanam just did this at Chennai...

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresK3 vs CR1

On another note, if we are scheduled for a K3 interview, is there any possible way we can just interview for the CR1 then instead since everything is submited?



Yes, I believe you can request the CR1 interview instead of the K3, but would only be possible if the Embassy has received the CR1 file before the interview date. Someone was refused the request at Manila a couple weeks ago because the file was not there yet. Some have said the CR1 is given automatically if they receive the file before the K3 interview. I suspect that may depend on location. For Manila, I read of someone who had the two interviews scheduled 2 weeks apart. I've heard of others calling or emailing the embassy. I would call, if at all possible.

If you haven't already, you might take a look at the Manila Embassy thread in the Foreign Embassy forum. There are a few CR1's at the bottom of the timelines list. You can get a general idea of how long it takes the file to get to Manila, and be scheduled for the interview.

Good luck,
Mike

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresTracking Recently Approved I130 Petitions
I also just received both NOA2's in the mail, and was suprised to see it say the I-130 is being sent to NVC. Have to wonder whether it is really being sent, or something, or someone, triggered the wrong form letter.



Finally received I-130 & I-129F NOA 2 notices via snail mail; Both notices say that the petition has been sent to NVC for processing. :)


CherylandMikeNot TellingPhilippines2007-02-10 23:47:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresOld discussion K-3 & Cr-1
From reading others' experiences with this, I think you'll have to wait until the Manila Embassy has the I-130 file in their hands. Once they have received the file, you can call and ask to have the CR1, instead of the K-3, interview on Nov 8. Even if you're told "no" on the phone, you still have a chance by asking on the day of the interview. I would ask everyone I encountered. Good luck!

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresSenators / Representatives
I'd tell them, I may not have voted in the last election, but I'll be voting in the next one. Though they're not obligated to do so, they should be willing to serve and assist all the residents in their district, no matter how long they've been there, no matter their political inclination. I do seem to remember hearing that one of the longtime NM senators was not running for re-election... maybe his staffers just don't care anymore. Maybe they feel overloaded. As SusieK said, you can also try your House Rep. Good luck!
