Philippinesannulment??
the decision is the paper they gave to you after your hearing and its a soft paper........the DECREE is the hard paper after the 15 days waiting period........actually it wont state there that it is the DECREE it only says DECISION.....but the DECREE is the hard paper not the soft one.......

PhilippinesK1 can work?
I'm on K1 just wondering if I can work within the 90 days period when I'm in US? I read somewhere that I can work as long as they stamp my visa or something at the POE? Or is the visa enough as a proof that I can work?

Thanks!

Since you only live about a 6 hour bus ride in COOL Baguio I suggest you take the medical at least a couple of weeks early in case something should "pop up".
I suggest the same for EVERYONE no matter where you live. Some peeps have missed their interviews do to sputum test and other things medical they could have corrected with an early medical in time for the interview.
Nothing to do with your allergies as you won't have any problems with them "unless they are contagious" LOL. blink.gif joking!
If you haven't already you can do the CFO seminar at the same time and get part of the CFO "trip" out of the way.
Hope the air pollution has improved since I was in Baguio!
Beautiful place but like a LOT of places in pinas have to many trikes and jeepneys!


I will surely want to take early medical...

we don't have tricycle here just Taxis and jeepney's, makes the pollution worse mad.gif .........

Yeah now that I think about it I didn't see trikes there. Must be to hilly.
We went to Baguio by van from Bauang. Bali Hai!
Had fun boating in the lake there.

"We" have 4 "houses" in Barangay Tangui, San Fernando City! Marami trikes there. Air pollution in the city naman.
Wife and anak stayed at Lotus Garden CLOSE to St.Lukes for the medical. Clean and as safe as you can get for Manila.
Some of my expat friends stay there when they go to Manila and recommended it highly!
My wife and anak took their medical almost 2 months early!
Make copies of your Passport as St.Lukes will take it!



yeah its hilly, I will just stay at moms place in Manila...hmmm I thought they said that taking early Medical like more than a month before Interview will be invalid? unsure.gif

You have to tell them about your allergies especially if it is about "eggs", as some vaccines/medicines should not be given if you have allergies to these foods. There are vaccines that are derived from "duck embryo" (eggs) and if you have allergies to eggs, this should not be given or you may have an adverse reactions with the medicines/vaccines.


Yes, I agreed, because after the examination you will have vaccination, if you have allergies it will affect your skin and even having a hard time to breath after the vaccination, i also have an allergies,but to the dust i even have an asthma and i tell them about it, and it doesn't affect my medical to st lukes..good luck to you

If under 14 [Not sure on the exact age] No need to attend seminar but you still will have to register anak when you go to get the sticker. Pay additional P400 for anak also.
K2 needs CFO sticker in their passport also.

And on question #11 of I-134 states that:

I __ intend ___ do not intend to make specific contributions to the support of the person(s) named in item 3.
( If you check "intend," indicate the exact nature and duration of the contributions. For example, If you intend to furnish room and board, state for how long and, if money, state the amount in US dollars and state whether it is to be given in a lump sum, weekly or monthly, and for how long.

My fiance is confused on the above part pls help helpsmilie.gif , What explanation will he put?

PhilippinesGoodbye Letter
QUOTE (island_princess @ Aug 24 2007, 05:05 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
GOODBYE LETTER

Dear Wife:

I'm writing you this letter to tell you that I'm leaving you forever.
I've been a good man to you for seven years and I have nothing to show
for it. These last two weeks have been hell. Your boss called to tell
me that you quit your job today and that was the last straw.*

Last week, you came home and didn't even notice that I had a new
haircut, had cooked your favorite meal and even wore a brand new pair of
silk boxers. You ate in two minutes, and went straight to sleep after
watching all of your soaps. You don't tell me you love me anymore; you
don't want sex or anything that connects us as husband and wife. Either
you're cheating on me or you don't love me anymore; whatever the case,
I'm gone.

Your EX-Husband

P.S. Don't try to find me. Your SISTER and I are moving away to West
Virginia together! Have a great life!



Dear Ex-Husband

Nothing has made my day more than receiving your letter. It's true
that you and I have been married for seven years, although a good man
is a far cry from what you've been. I watch my soaps so much because
they drown out your constant whining and griping. Too bad that
doesn't work. I DID notice when you got a hair cut last week, but the
first thing that came to mind was "You look just like a girl!" Since
my mother raised me not to say anything if you can't say something nice,
I didn't comment . And when you cooked my favorite meal, you must
have gotten me confused with MY SISTER, because I stopped eating pork
seven years ago.

About those new silk boxers: I turned away from you because the $49.99
price tag was still on them, and I prayed that it was a coincidence that
my sister had just borrowed fifty dollars from me that morning. After
all of this, I still loved you and felt that we could work it out. **So
when I hit the lotto f or ten million dollars, I quit my job and bought
us two tickets to Jamaica . But when I got home you were
gone. Everything happens for a reason, I guess.

I hope you have the fulfilling life you always wanted. My lawyer said
that the letter you wrote ensures you won't get a dime from me. So
take care.

Signed,

Your Ex-Wife, Rich As Hell and Free!

P.S. I don't know if I ever told you this, but my sister Carla was
born Carl.
I hope that's not a problem.



I received this in my email too.... its freakin funny laughing.gif
