Philippinesbasis of poverty guidelines
QUOTE (yuki_lyka @ Jul 26 2008, 07:24 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
anyone knows regarding the basis of porverty guidlines.. is it the ITR/W-2's or the letter of employment?

just curious...hehehe!


In my own experience, it's the letter of employment which states the current income of your petitioner.
Because my fiance had below poverty income in 2005-2007 ITR and his current income is above the poverty level which is indicated in his letter of employment that made my k1 approved. good.gif

PhilippinesPOE questions
Thanks for the replies..
Well, i'm more curious about the xray film if it's really needed at the immigration or could I just put it inside my check in luggage..
You see i will be travelling alone with my baby and having to bring the xray makes it harder.
I haven't bought my tickets but planning to have my POE @ LAX.

PhilippinesPOE questions
I will be flying to the U.S next month and am curious about what exactly the immigration people are requiring upon arrival?
I've read where other immigrants are not having to foward their x-ray whereas Filippina are?

What was required by immigration when you arrived at your POE?

Thanks for your insights. good.gif

In my family here in the States we typically only eat rice when eating Chinese or Thai and that is my Mom only, I've never seen my Dad eat rice, he's a typical "meat and potatoes" guy. After living in PI/Manila for three months I've grown more accustomed to rice. I know when my honey arrives we'll eat rice as much as we would in the Philippines, maybe twice a day.
I am also excited about cooking "American" meals for her such as a nice, juicy steak or baked Turkey with all the trimmings or Lobster. Bottom line, we'll share foods from each others culture because I love her chicken adobo, pancit and other dishes.

Hi shai, sorry i can't answer that right now..but in our case we plan to have my fiance pick us up here then we will travel together with baby because i know it will be hard to travel alone especially that you'll be carrying baby car seat.
I'm also planning to leave by september which my baby will just be 3 months old lang.


This is really funny..i'm quoting myself.. blush.gif
But that was before i gave birth and now my son is here, we plan to leave this september 25...
Now i could relate to Shai helpsmilie.gif i will be travelling alone with my son..
I will be having a luggage, a diaper bag carry on, a laptop, my packet and xray..and my 3 month old baby unsure.gif
Wondering how could i manage these..still researching on what to do..so far i could ask for assistance at NAIA, ask for bulkhead set with bassinet, bring stroller (is an umbrella type stroller required? or any stroller will do?).

Thanks!

Hello guys!

I'm back and just had my interview last May 12 and got approved.
Now my next problem is, i'm currently pregnant and my due date will be this june 27..
So our next concern is for the baby's crba and passport.
Just want to know how many days it will take to get an NSO BC for a newborn baby?

Also, pls share some info of your own experience about CRBA process.

Thank you!


Hi,First of all,Congrats to you.

We are working on my daughter's CRBA also.Im on K1 and i already had the letter from the USEM (April 24,2008) that i can now make an appointment of my interview/medical but i can't for a while coz i need some time for my daughter's CRBA.I already ordered the forms when my fiancee was here for 3weeks (he just left PI going back to US 5days ago) so he had the forms for the CRBA and he will fill it up there in the US and send it to me together with the supporting documents as stated on the checklist.Then i will submit it to the USEM as soon as i get it,then wait for my daughter's CRBA interview appointment,after that,I/my fiancee can call USEM call center to make an appointment for my interview/medical for my K1 visa.We plan to do it like this way para di magahol sa oras at ma-expire K1 visa if i will have my interview/medical first before CRBA.

Make sure u keep ur pregnancy record,ultrasounds and all proof of u and ur fiancee before u get preggy and until u give birth.
Btw,June pa due date mo right???Did u find out if u can fly now before u give birth????Mas maganda kc kung dun ka na sa US manganganak.

Good luck and Congrats and welcome to the motherhood


Hi bluemist..thanks for replying..
We've already decided that i will give birth here in june..so that's why we're researching on the crba process..
Actually i've read about someone's experience and they only did it for 3 months including the nso bc process.
It's good that you're doing it before your k1 so that you will have lots of time..
We just had our interview early so that i will just have to take care of baby's crba.
What kind of forms are included in the packet that you requested?

Goodluck!




Forms are:
DS-3053 (Statement of Consent)
DS-2029 (Application form for Consular Report of Birth Abroad)
DS-11 (Application form for U.S.passport)
MNL/PPT-15 (AFFIDAVIT OF PARENTAGE AND PHYSICAL PRESENCE IN THE U.S.)

The rest are instruction for ur son's passport photo guide pics,checklist,and authorization form kung sino tatanggap ng passport ng baby mo pag wala ka when they deliver it.
As soon na manganak ka,paayos mo agad BC ng baby u,then padala mo sa fiancee mo together nung forms from ACS then he have to sign the back of the BC then send it back to you together with the completed forms and the supporting documents dun sa checklist.Once u get it back specially the BC,pa-register mo na agad sa civil registrar sa city hall nyo para ma-4ward na nila agad sa NSO.Yung BC ng anak ko,pina-attorney pa ng registered midwife na nagpa-anak sa akin,sya lahat nag-ayos pati pagpapa-registered nung pinadala ng fiancee ko after nya mapirmahan.Kc yung iba ko friend,pinahirapan sila.

Eto nga pala ACS-FedEx telephone number na tatawagan mo to order the forms for ur son.
02-879-4747 Monday to Friday 8am to 4pm.

Good luck and I pray for you na di ka mahirapan sa panganganak mo.
Later....


Oooppss....My bad,i put son.Idk yet if ur baby is a boy or girl.


Thanks bluemist..
it's a boy!!!
i really appreciate it..my fiance will be here during my delivery so there will be no prob in signing the back part of the bc..
thanks a lot..
goodluck also..godbless



Thats good.Sana matagal pa stay nya para kasama mo sya sa USEM for ur son's CRBA appointment para mas madali.
How long ba sya mag-stay?????


Yah, pero for a month lang sya andito..june 15 sya uwi so until july 15 lang sya..sana nga maka habol ung nso bc ni baby para pwede kami maka pag emergency appointment.

Btw,June pa due date mo right???Did u find out if u can fly now before u give birth????Mas maganda kc kung dun ka na sa US manganganak.

Good luck and Congrats and welcome to the motherhood


Hi bluemist..thanks for replying..
We've already decided that i will give birth here in june..so that's why we're researching on the crba process..
Actually i've read about someone's experience and they only did it for 3 months including the nso bc process.
It's good that you're doing it before your k1 so that you will have lots of time..
We just had our interview early so that i will just have to take care of baby's crba.
What kind of forms are included in the packet that you requested?

Goodluck!




Forms are:
DS-3053 (Statement of Consent)
DS-2029 (Application form for Consular Report of Birth Abroad)
DS-11 (Application form for U.S.passport)
MNL/PPT-15 (AFFIDAVIT OF PARENTAGE AND PHYSICAL PRESENCE IN THE U.S.)

The rest are instruction for ur son's passport photo guide pics,checklist,and authorization form kung sino tatanggap ng passport ng baby mo pag wala ka when they deliver it.
As soon na manganak ka,paayos mo agad BC ng baby u,then padala mo sa fiancee mo together nung forms from ACS then he have to sign the back of the BC then send it back to you together with the completed forms and the supporting documents dun sa checklist.Once u get it back specially the BC,pa-register mo na agad sa civil registrar sa city hall nyo para ma-4ward na nila agad sa NSO.Yung BC ng anak ko,pina-attorney pa ng registered midwife na nagpa-anak sa akin,sya lahat nag-ayos pati pagpapa-registered nung pinadala ng fiancee ko after nya mapirmahan.Kc yung iba ko friend,pinahirapan sila.

Eto nga pala ACS-FedEx telephone number na tatawagan mo to order the forms for ur son.
02-879-4747 Monday to Friday 8am to 4pm.

Good luck and I pray for you na di ka mahirapan sa panganganak mo.
Later....


Oooppss....My bad,i put son.Idk yet if ur baby is a boy or girl.


Thanks bluemist..
it's a boy!!!
i really appreciate it..my fiance will be here during my delivery so there will be no prob in signing the back part of the bc..
thanks a lot..
goodluck also..godbless
