Did you fill out the forms I-485,I-765 in your married name or your maiden name?If you use maiden name in all the forms then that will be show on your greencard.

My visa were in maiden name too because I entered US by K1 and also my passport.But when I filled out all the forms,I used my married name and also I submitted copy of marriage certificate.

Its not because in your passport and visa are maiden name.They are following what's on the forms you filled up and submitted them.

PhilippinesRenewal of Philippines Passport under marriage name
QUOTE (rheanick @ May 7 2009, 01:10 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
I plan to go back to the philippines for a vacation early next year. At the same time, while in the philippines, I plan to renew my passport. i want my passport to reflect my marriage name.

Do i have to report my marriage in the Philippines consulate here in the US.

OR

Just bring my US marriage certificate and renew my passport in the DFA (philippines).

Thanks.


Hi rheanick,yes you have to report your marriage first here in the U.S. before you can amend your passport to your married name.Anyway you can do it both at the same time while you are here in the U.S. but if you plan to renew it in the Philippines,you have to report your marriage first here in the U.S.

It happened to my friend..she went to the Philippines last February for her vacation and her passport was about to expire so she decided to renewed it there but she thought she can renew it using her married name..the DFA told her she can renew it but still using her maiden name because she didnt report her marriage yet so the DFA told her as soon that she get back here in U.S. report her marriage at the nearest Philippine Consulate and wait a mail from the DFA that they received it and that her marriage has been reported.

I will do mine both at the same time.By the way you can do it by mail if you live far from the Philippine Consulate in your area.

Hi guys, I am K1 Visa holder,i will be travelling this August going to NC.

1.my mama will make the wedding dress for me (floor length,semi-serpentina, full beaded bodice)
since it wont be that engrande type of dress, my first thought is just put it inside of my checked luggage, is it wise/safe to do it that way?
2.i want to wear veil,just a simple one (yong sa likod lang di naman takip yong mukha)
- di naman kaya over-dressed ako for a court wedding? unsure.gif
3.i also think of brining with me a year supply of contraceptive pills- ok lang ba yon? di nama kaya maka aberya ako sa custom/immigration? or shall i require a letter from my ob who will prescribe me of these?

Maraming salamat mga kababayan ko.
Ingat and i hope everyone is having a good day.



About sa pills,yup pwede ka magdala kahit wala prescription.I brought pills for 6months.Kc pag di ka magdala,di ka agad makakabili d2 ng wla prescription,and before ka bigyan prescription or reseta,need mo muna magpa-pap or dalhin mo din yung papsmear result mo galing dyan.

One VJ member i talk to sometimes,nagdala din sya ng pills nya for 1 year.
Lagay mo sa ziplock bag then Lagay mo lng sis sa check-in mo.

I already finished my 6 months supply pills from pinas kaya nagpa-pap na ako dito kc need ko na ng new pack of pill.I brought my papsmear result too from pinas but malapit na sya mag-1 year so I decided na magpa-pap na lng ako.

I'm taking Tri Nessa 28's now,yan nireseta sken ng doctor.

Happy trip and God Bless!

PhilippinesWhat's the best international calling card can we use?
At Rebtel,calling Philippines for landline is $0.119 per minute.And $0.139 per minute to mobile.

My husband used that to call me for almost 2years and now I'm using it too to call my family.
Great call quality.Six second billing after the first minute, no contract, no hidden fees.

No calling cards, no downloads

PIN-less dialing. Use it instantly.


Any phone, any network

Works with your current carrier.

Best of all,no expiration and no maintenance fee like the other calling cards.I-save mo lng yung local number para dun sa number ng person na inadd mo sa rebtel account mo then i-dial mo lng yun,then direct na agad ang sasagot yung person na tatawagan mo.

You can order at www.magicjack.com or buy at Walgreens,Walmart and Radioshack.

The good thing with magicjack is that you won't have monthly bills.
Buy a magicjack for $39.95 and that's good for 1 year then before the 1 year expires,all you need to do is to renew it for $19.95 for another year.All you need too have is a pc with internet connection and then its up to you if you want to use ur magicjack with headset and mic or buy a corded telephone and connect the telephone cord into the magicjack so it will be ur phone that will ring when you have incoming call.

I suggest buy one for you and one for your family and register it with US numbers so you can talk for free and unlimited,anytime.

My daughter has dual citizenship US and PI, from what I understand from the PI immigrations is if she holds a PI passport she need to get an exit permit. I found a post sometime ago and can’t find it now but If I remember right the OP was saying something about if her child had dual citizenship she would not have to pay the exit permit fee? Any one know about this. My wife’s interview will be soon so I’m trying to finish up all the loose ends.


Yes,your daughter don't need to get exit permit since she has 2 passports already that makes her dual-citizen.

1) yes
2) yes
3) name you want to be on your greencard
4) no


I used my husband's family name and my middle name now is my family name when I was single.

Ditto.


good.gif Same here.I used my husband's family name to all of the forms and other paperworks like when I applied for SSN,State ID,bank account.And my middle name now is my family or last name when I was single.

I suggest its better to use your husband's family name in all of the paperworks especially in your greencard so it will match your passport once you renew it or amend it with your married name para wala maging problema in the future.

Good luck with your AOS.

hi there!

i only need to have 1 shot for HPV and im done ...do i need to complete it first before we can file for AOS?thanks



In my case,St.Luke's gave me HPV shot #1 then when I went to civil surgeon,he told me to have HPV shot #2,it cost $150 for the shot if I will have it on his office because USCIS doesn't take insurance for immigration purpose,so he told me to go to our doctor or other clinic to have the shot so we won't need to pay $150 and so that's what we did.We went to the clinic close to his office to have the HPV shot #2 using my husband's insurance.Then civil surgeon,transcribed my vaccination form from St.Luke's to I-693 including the HPV #2,signed and sealed it and he charged me $25 and we filed my AOS the next day.That's it.

Then after 2 months when I had the HPV #2,I had the last shot which is HPV #3.Because it was written on the record that I need to have the last shot after 2months which is the time frame and since it's appropriate on my age,why not have the last shot so I had the completed HPV vaccines,and it's good also to avoid cervical cancer.

So I suggest,have the HPV so you won't get RFE.

Good luck!

Hi,I asked one of my friend who had her daughter (K2) follow to join.She said,all you need to do is to call USEM and schedule an interview for your daughter.Does your daughter have her medical already?If yes,only thing you need to do is to set an interview appointment and have someone to fill up the forms she needs for interview.

Btw,my friend's daughter don't have the father's name on her BC and she don't know her father too and they didn't encounter a problem about it because she has the full custody,and I believe you have the full custody of your daughter too.

You need to wait for at least 2 weeks after you arrived here in the US to be able to obtain SS number because SSA must see whether you are on DHS system (and their system) already. Otherwise you will be wasting your precious time. You don't have to have SSN to get married... good.gif


Depends,some state requires to have SSN to get marriage license.Better ask your county office first what are the requirements to get marriage license,if don't need SSN,then just apply SSN after you get married,because if you will apply ssn now using your maiden name,you need to come back again at SSA to change it to your married name.
