Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	sworn affidavits by U.S. citizen friends	That's pretty thin for evidence of two years of marriage. You want to show the commingling of your lives. Car insurance, lease/mortgage, memberships, mail addressed to the both of you, joint credit accounts, wills, health insurance, etc. I see the point of this Key thing she doesn't have drivers license so insurance and car is only in my name lease has always been in my name when i did want to include her on the lease it would gone up 250.00 additional a month health insurance , mine is job given hers state issued only thing is checking account and it paperless statements so a voided check what we have and recently trip to Philippines so itinerary and boarding pass with our names so affidavits might be needed	tomcat	Not Telling	Philippines	2011-05-11 22:32:00

Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	FedEx address to Vermont Processing	hey tomcat! we just sent off our ROC packet today, and while we was at my local Post Office, was talking to the post office lady about the 2 different lines on there - one for Lower Welden St and the other for PO BOX 200, and she send that they send it to the PO Box, and that the Po Box is located at Lower Welden St. So, we sent it via Express Post (guarantee delivery by 3pm tomorrow) with Signature required AND written confirmation of delivery mailed to me - total cost me $30 !!

Philippines	Cenomar Verification	QUOTE (KFH @ Mar 9 2008, 03:46 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> We had our interview on Thursday, March 6, 2008. Everything went well but the consulate officer said they would issue the visa following the verification of my fiance's cenomar. She paid the document verfication fee which the embassy told me not to pay in advance. Obviously, the document verification can extend to all documents but the officer said only the cenomar would need to be verified, likely becuase my fiance is 40 years old and never married. There will be no problem with verification. My question is this. Anyone know how long they will take before verification and visa issuance? We had anticipated approval on March 6th and planned for her flight to USA on March 28th. I am on vacation the week of March 31. Now, I'm fearful to book flight on that day because there is no guarantee the visa will arrive by then. Had it not been for cenomar verification I was ready to book in anticipation of receiving the visa in time. Now I don't know whether to take the chance. Any previous experiences? Thanks. Getting the Cenomar is very quick usually 2 weeks in the Philippines you could have gotten a Cenomar before interview from e-census it took a total of 3 weeks to receive it in the states https://www.ecensus....re/frmIndex.asp	tomcat	Not Telling	Philippines	2008-03-09 20:02:00

The difference was, my papers was proccessed in HK US Embassy instead in Manila US Embassy. Everything went well in HK US Embassy...so can't give you any advice how they proccess the papers in Manila US Embassy. They didn't ask my CENOMAR (certificate of no marriage record) coz' I showed my divorced papers as well my marriage records from my ex-husband (he is a filipino) from NSO. If the beneficiary was single they have to present CENOMAR. I guess she'll be fine coz' she can't have the divorce done if her ex-husband didn't sign those document before filing it in the HK court for divorce. Goodluck! This is very interesting. And very lucky for you that the US embassy in Hongkong recognized the divorce decree issued there. It only means that the embassy is not aware of our laws regarding divorce. Under Philippine laws, you are still married to your filipino husband since you are both Filipino citizens and divorce is not recognized in the Philippines. But , filing the divorce in HOngkong and the K1 visa worked good for you and you are here now so thats all that matters. The US Embassy was aware about the Philippine family law...it would be fraud if my foreign husband and I got married in the Philippines knowing my divorce decree is not applicable there....that's why I came here as a K1 visa. The US Embassy recognized my divorce decree because it was issued by the HK court (gov't) where they recognize divorce, too. I believe they are not aware of this law: Under Book 1 of the Civil Code of the Philippines : Art. 15. Laws relating to family rights and duties, or to the status, condition and legal capacity of persons are binding upon citizens of the Philippines, even though living abroad. (9a) It is very clear that for a Filipino Citizen, no matter where we are in the world, we are bound by our laws relating to family matters which include marriage among others. Therefore , one can only conclude based on the law above that if one obtains a divorce decree from any country, the same is not valid in the Philippines because our government doesnt recognize divorce so the divorce decree you obtained is not applicable there. Under our Philippine laws, you are still legally married to your Filipino husband and your marriage still exist in the records of the National Statistics Office. The only instance that a divorce decree obtained abroad is valid in the Philippines is if either one of the couple is a non-filipino citizen and he/she obtains divorce against the filipino spouse abroad (Family CodeArt. 26. xxxxx Where a marriage between a Filipino citizen and a foreigner is validly celebrated and a divorce is thereafter validly obtained abroad by the alien spouse capacitating him or her to remarry, the Filipino spouse shall have capacity to remarry under Philippine law. (As amended by Executive Order 227) Im just curious also if you ever had your divorce decree registered in the Local Civil Registrar of the place where you married your Filipino husband? And your Filipino husband cant marry again , even with the divorce decree obtained in Hongkong, that if he wants to marry in the Philippines, or he still can, by not divulging his marriage to you. Anyhow, the bottomline is, you are here now and filing the K1 in Hongkong worked for you BUT, in my opinion, being in the legal field, you are still legally married to your Filipino husband in the Philippines as what the others here have correctly replied. Godbless. Some Filipino couples (both married back in the Philippines) came here in the USA and later their marriage was failed, they filed a divorce here and married another filipino (again!). Do you think they register their marriage in the Philippines? I don't think so. Before I file my divorce decree in HK, my ex-husband was married twice to another woman already. Why I did not sue him a begamy? Do I need to waste my time and money to him? His kids to his new family need him...what I want is my freedom but filing an annulment back in the Philippines is very expensive. Hope we can avail a legal aid from the Philippines, in HK I had my divorce processed by the help of the HK legal aid who paid the lawyer. Philippine family law is only for the rich people who can pay those crooked lawyers....you can't pay a lawyer no case! My ex-husband knows better where he stand coz' he's married twice before the divorce. You didnt mention in your original post that your filipino husband was married twice before the divorce. . now this makes all the difference. If your filipino husband was married twice before he married you, then there was really no marriage between you and him in the first place. Ergo, no need for the divorce or an annulment. What I am trying to explain is that, Filipino citizens, if they are legally married in the Philippines, even if they obtained a divorce decree abroad, such is not valid in the Philippines because it doesnt recognize divorce. Yes, I know of Filipino couples who came here and got married to another even if their marriage in the Philippines is not anulled yet, the divorce might be valid here, but not in the Philippines. My point is simple, a divorce obtained by a Filipino citizen abroad, against a filipino spouse, is not binding in the Philippines, this is the law. I think my point is clear. As I have mentioned earlier, the process you took worked for you , so thats all that matters , really. I am just pointing out the legality of the issue at hand because the OP's beneficiary is in the Philippines, unlike your situation where you were interviewed in the US Embassy in Hongkong. This is all about the OP's situation. Im sorry to hear that you have encountered crooked lawyers, but we are not all the same. My mother is a great lawyer and judge, and I know I am a respectable lawyer when I was still in the Philippines and I am proud to be one. Anyhow, as I've mentioned earlier, you are here now, thats all that matter. Im sure you read the other posts here and we all agree about the legality of a divorce obtained abroad, not just me. Godbless. Myla I'm sorry mentioning crooked lawyers...it so happened I encountered one back 1997. Actually, I was the first wife, the 2nd wife filed null and void to the court already but the 3rd wife stick to him coz' they had 2 kids now... What matters now is we both respect our decision and happy with each own family. Bottom line is. . .. Congress should just push through with that Divorce Bill while election is still far away.

Philippines	traveling	My wife is from the Philippine's, she has had her green card now for a bout 6 month. She wants to go back to the Philippines for a visit. The only concern we have is that her passport is still in her maiden name, not her married name. So i assume all she need to do is carry a certified copy of our marriage lisence with her. she would get her passport changed to her married name while in the philippines but she will not be there long enough to do that. Am i correct that this is all she needs and should not have any problem traveling to, then from the philippines back here??? thanks all We were in same boat and just got back from Dumagete City My wife Philippines passport was also in her maiden name but green card is in her married name The tickets were in her maiden name At time of entry handing them the passports usually they will ask for her green card not a big issue .	tomcat	Not Telling	Philippines	2011-05-14 15:29:00

What do I do to cancel the I-129F after it's been sent to the Helsinki consulate? The last communication I got was dated 12/31 and said it would be sent from NVC to Helsinki consulate within a week. There's no concern for visa fraud here, but at the same time, I am positive we will not be getting married after the things she has said and done, and I want finality. Do I call the consulate, or email them, or what? I assume that contacting VSC or USCIS would not help at this point since the petition was already forwarded.

I waited a month to contact them when i called they had no clue were it was 2 days later i received an email it was found it will take a month to process I called them 3 months later and they told me to send a letter to Vermont to request the paper work I sent 4 FedEx letters and 10 phone calls later never had an response. so i still haven't received anything it so i called my Congressman in our district and they told him for me to use form G-884 for the return ...why didn't they tell me in the beginning .... and now i was informed it going to take another 6 months to process ...i was bulls@it...for what to put my packet in a envelope and send it to me ...so i contacted my congressman again ..pretty helpful i had a couple weeks later .....good luck hope you don't go what i went threw	tomcat	Not Telling	Philippines	2008-01-09 19:04:00
